Love Cats video tutorial with an easy but unique fun fold

March 15, 2023

We made this CUTE card at my February card clubs. It really shows off the Love Cats stamp set seen here.

I shared it on my FB Live yesterday (see video below). It's sort of a unique fold in that the card base is a quarter sheet and the Sweet Sorbet is smaller and opens; see?

In order to get full, solid images I used the Stamparatus for the cats. It makes a world of difference! *Catch the tips in the video below.

*Other items used here are the Conversation Bubbles dies, Pastel Adhesive-backed sequins, Balmy Blue variegated ribbon, Stylish Shapes dies, White embossing powder, Heat Tool, Sweet Sorbet Blends marker

Measurements:

Fun Fold card with two versions!

October 6, 2020
Saturday was World Card Making Day! Did you make time to stamp? First; did you even know about it?

We had a few stamping events on my Flowerbug's Team group and Mystery Stamping was one of them. I sent them measurements so they could prep for the card making event but they didn't have a photo of the card! Just measurements and supplies. Use any Designer Paper, etc….. It was fun to see what they all made.

Below are the two fun fold cards I made.

The front of the card is cut short to reveal the Designer paper on the left (inside) of the card. Above I used the Snowflake Splendor designer paper and the Snowflake Wishes stamp set & dies bundle. This designer paper is on sale right now at 15% off. See all of the papers on sale here:

Next is a card made with the Gilded Autumn specialty designer paper and the Beautiful Autumn stamp & punch bundle. You can see the measurements for these cards below.

Here are the measurements:
- 2 pieces of Designer Series Paper (3 1/4" x 4" plus a coordinating piece 1 3/4" X 4")
- Coordinating card base (9" x 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2")
- neutral CS like White or Vanilla (2 1/2" X 3 1/2" and 3 3/4" X 3 1/4" for inside)
- a coordinating layer of CS (2 5/8" X 3 5/8")

Trio of Celebrate Sunflowers cards with video & an easy highlighting technique!

October 2, 2020
Look at these gorgeous sunflower cards! They were a big hit at my Card Clubs this month. They could chose between Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade and Calypso Coral ink for their sunflower.

Save

We sponged each sunflower leaving the center without color except for a bit of Crumb Cake Blends marker. I know it might not be realistic but I like the pop of White in the center for brightness.

Check out the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle here.

Then we used White Craft ink and Blender pens to highlight a few petals here and there on the sunflowers. It's super easy! I created a video below so you can see how it's done.

Measurements:
- Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scraps for die-cuts
  Whisper White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4", plus a 3 1/2" piece for sunflower
  Early Espresso 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
  In Good Taste DSP 1 3/4" X 4 3/4"
