More fun fold cards with One Horse Open Sleigh!


Here are the other two cards I shared in last week's Live video.  If you're not following me on Facebook to catch the live videos click here to join my FB page!  

Not on Facebook, follow me on YouTube here. 

This first card is a Spanner fun fold card; featuring the One Horse Open Sleigh designer paper seen here. It's only seen in our Online Exclusives.  

My colors are Gray Granite with Early Espresso ink. The die-cut trees are from the Horse & Sleigh dies seen here. I added some color to the base of the trees with brown & Gray Granite Blends. My greetings are from the Lasting Joy and Layering Leaves sets.

Here's the view once the upper panel is lifted.  I stamped a tree from the Horse & Sleigh bundle on the inside.  

Measurements: 

  • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”.  Cut up to the 4 ¼” score line at 1 ¼” from each outer edge.
  • Greeting strip 5 ½” X 1”

Next is a double flap card in blues – Misty Moonlight & Boho Blue.  These colors pair beautifully together.  

This card is a wonderful fun fold layout for 6" papers.  You can make two cards with one piece. Or make 8 cards with a 12" designer paper! The stamps are from One Horse Open Sleigh and Lasting Joy.  

The side flap is scored and the score line is placed right at the left card edge.  I cover that up with the inside white panel.  

Measurements:

  • DSP – 1 piece per card 3” X 5 ¼”
  • Card base 5 ½” X 4 ¼”
  • Center flap 3 ¼” X 11” score at 5 ½”, Side flap 5” X 1” score at ¾”
  • White inside 3” X 5 ¼”

Both of these cards are included in my One Horse Open Sleigh fun fold cards PDF tutorial seen here.  My tutorials can be used for more than this designer paper!  


Below is the video where I made three of these cards:

  • Cottage Wreaths gift treat bag with video; easy and uses your DSP too!


    I shared this cute project on a FB Live video a few weeks ago.  It features the Country Wreaths bundle and the Santa Express designer paper.  Here's the link to the video

    The Cottage Wreaths bundle is carrying over into January. See it here. 

    Look at the wreaths above; they're each unique, showing how much variety there is in the stamp set & dies.  

    The left is mostly die-cuts with an additional bow & berries added.  The right has the stamped wreath over the die-cut green wreath.  The bow is die-cut from Red glimmer paper. So many options!  

    I started with a piece of DSP at 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". Score at 1 1/4" with the short edge at the top.  Then with the long edge at the top score at 2", 4", 6" & 8" up to that first score line.  Tip: You're only scoring the bottom of this bag. 

    Crease on the score lines and glue together.  *watch the video to see how.  

    Click on the photo below to watch the video.  There are two other projects before this one in the video; all featuring the Cottage Wreaths bundle.

  • Awesome fundraiser last weekend!


    Last Saturday we held a big fundraiser for two of my favorite local charitable organizations here in Minot, ND. It was an amazing success because of the many donations & volunteers. 

    I kept feeling a nudge to do this and I knew my friends & community would join in. I was thrilled with the many people that helped pull it off.

    We raised over $3400 in sales towards these charitable organizations. Woo hoo!

    We focused on baked and craft items at our sale hoping to help people with their Holiday baking & gift giving.  A local church offered us their Parish Hall to hold it.  Here are some pictures of our goods. 


    We had an amazing group of donations. We were asked by many if we would do it again next year; and I sure hope we can!  


    Here's a little information on these two organizations:

    Hairball Haven is a local feline rescue that takes in homeless kittens and cats, provide veterinary care, immunizations, spays or neuters and houses them until they find new, loving homes.  They currently have over 100 in house & in foster homes.  An average vet bill is $20,000. They're amazing and I'm so happy to help support them. My granddaughter Eliza loves to volunteer there when she's in town.  Here's a link to their FB page and donation link.   

    Matthew 25 Project is the other wonderful organization we donated to.  They are a nonprofit that seeks to match gifts of clothing and household items with those in need in our community at no cost. My friend Melissa started this in Minot and 1000's of people have benefited from their generousity. It's run by volunteers but they do have rent, gas and heat bills.  Here's a link to their FB page. 

    I love this time of year when everyone feels the need to give to others.

  • Kindest Gnomes ‘Fancy Feet’ card; so cool!


    We made this FUN Gnomes card at my December card clubs.  I also shared it on my Tuesday FB Live here.  

    You might ask, why is it fun?  Well the gnomes feet wiggle.  I call them 'fancy feet'.  It features the Kindest Gnomes bundle.  Unfortunately the stamp set has sold out. The dies are carrying over into January because we are getting a NEW Gnome stamp set in the Spring catalog. It will coordinate with the current Gnomes dies. See the dies here. 

    Here's what the inside of the card looks like.  I used the Joyful Flurry stamp set.  I like that this stamp set has greetings for winter or New Years. 

    Below is the back of the assembled gnome and shows how the swinging feet work.  The 'nose' is cut from a small rectangle of Blushing Bride and that oval is how you 'hang' the feet so they swing.  It's not adhered at all. This entire piece is adhered to the Designer Paper layer; it's adhered with just two Dimensionals.  

    Isn't it fun!  I hope you watch the video to see how easy this is to make.  Even if you don't have the gnomes set I'm sure you could make something else 'swing' like a greeting or other critters. 

    This card is included in one of my December card kits to go featuring the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  This kit has sold out now; but you can see others in my shop here. 

    Which one do you like better?
