One Horse Open Sleigh Spanner fun fold card


I was surprised to see the One Horse Open Sleigh designer paper back in stock.  It was unavailable last week but it's back now.  I featured it in one of my July card kits to go.  See it here online.

This designer paper is so pretty; it's filled with beautiful scenes and soft prints. 

It's called a spanner card because of it's unique fold – the horizontal layer spans the card from side to side.  

I added a few die-cut trees on the right side.  I colored them with Blends markers – adding brown and Gray Granite to the white. The greeting is from the Lasting Joy stamp set. 

The Gray Granite card base is a simple 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Then you cut up to the score line at the 1 1/4" mark on front; on both sides. 

I added designer paper to the center panel and also to both side panels.  The horizontal piece 'spans' under the to side panels like this: 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4".  Cut up to the score line at 1 1/4". 
  • Horizontal layer 5 1/2" X 1"
  • Designer paper 2 3/4" X 4" and two pieces 1" X 4" for the sides. 

This card was included in both my PDF tutorial and the pre-cut card kit to go; each card is a fancy fold.  I have just two kits left.  You can see them both here along with other kits and tutorials.

  • Pretty Marvelous Nature card with video tutorial & measurements


    I've seen a few projects with the Marvelous Nature set and was intrigued by it's reverse images. And it's nature so I ordered it.  This card was one of two I made on this week's Live video: 

    I chose to use Lost Lagoon with Pretty Peacock. I also added some of the Hello, Irresistible designer paper. This pretty DSP is on sale right now too!  See it here.  

    You may also spy the shimmery strip beside the greeting.  This is our Soft Shimmer 12" X 12" paper pack seen here.  It has 5 rich colors in it.

    The Marvelous Nature stamp set (seen here) includes two beautiful images and three greetings.  I kept my card very simple to show off the pretty fern image. 

    I love these colors together!

  • Colorful Inked Botanicals card kit or PDF tutorial option; available now


    The Inked Botanicals designer paper is a favorite of my customers so I chose it as one of my June card kits.  The color combinations and botanical prints are pretty and quite colorful too. 

    Here are the cards I came up with: 

    This 10 card kit features the Inked Botanicals 6 X 6" designer paper by Stampin' Up!  There are 5 designs and you'll make 2 of each.

    You'll receive the following in this pre-cut kit:

    The tutorial includes photos, step by step directions, a supplies list and measurements.  You'll receive the PDF tutorial in an email immediately after payment.  Please check your spam or junk folder. 

    To complete the cards you will need the following: Calypso Coral & Lost Lagoon inks, a paper trimmer and adhesives. 

    I used the Layering Leaves stamp set for my greeting images.  If you'd like to add it to the kit at an extra 10% off, please message me here and I'll send you an invoice.   

    I think the colors and patterns in this designer paper are fantastic!

  • Gorgeously Made & Delightfully Eclectic swaps


    I thought I'd share a few swaps I received on the Norway incentive trip. 

    This first card was made by Alanna Wharf. It features the Gorgeously Made bundle seen here.  

    This card put me over the edge; now I have to get this bundle!  

    She used the Masterfully Made 12" designer paper seen here (sale price now at $10.62) and the Soft Shimmer 12" combo pack on the leaf die-cut.

    Here's a close-up of this specialty paper and the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder.  I love the simplicity of this card; it really shows off the die-cut, pretty DSP & texture.  

    Next is a card my friend Susie Wood made with the new Delightfully Eclectic  12 X 12" designer paper seen here.  It's on sale this month; marked down from $30 to $25.50. There are 48 sheets in this pack; 4 each of 12 designs.  

    I love her layout; it really shows off the pattern of the daisy DSP.  That greeting die-cut is from the Nested Essential dies seen here.  

    Her measurements are:

    • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
    • yellow DSP 2" X 4"
    • Crushed Curry CS 4 1/2" X 3 1/4"
    • daisy DSP 4 pieces at 1" X 3"
