Poetic Expression fun fold swap card


Last week I shared this image on Facebook.  It was a bit of a tease to guess what the finished card would be like. 

It has Pool Party, White, Lost Lagoon and some Poetic Expressions designer paper (retiring in April). 

It also shows the greeting die-cut from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder seen here.  I feel like it makes my greetings extra special.  They're a pretty font and give texture and dimension to your projects. (I shared how to use this folder here in a video.)

And that is the finished card.  I made 12 of these for an organized fun fold swap. I am a huge fan of monochromatic cards and these colors are at the top of my favorites list.  

The tag is from the Something Fancy dies seen here.  I love the many label & greeting shapes this set has. 

Here's the inside view. 

Measurements are so simple!  Once you cut off the end of the card front you flip it 90 degrees and use it as the front layer. 

  • Card base – 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"; cut off one end at 2 3/4"
  • DSP – 1 piece at 2" X 4", 2nd piece at 4" X 3" 
  • Inside White 5 1/4" X 4" 

Here's the inside view.  This greeting is from the Simply Zinnia set seen here.

    My Team held a swap featuring Designer Paper and this is the card I created for it.  

    I loved the 'Inked Folder' technique so much I wanted to feature it on my card.  You can see how it's done in the video here.  And more examples featuring this Pretty Flowers embossing folder here.  

    This embossing folder is a free gift to anyone who places an online order over $50 in June. *See it here. 

    I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

    1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
    2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
    3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
    4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
    5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
    6. Repeat!   

    The Black & White striped Designer Paper is from the Pattern Party host pack seen here.  It's free with Hostess Rewards.  How do you get host rewards?  If your order is over $150 you earn free product and can choose from anything in the catalog including the items on pages 170-171 which are marked down just for host rewards!

  • Biggest Wish in a Beautiful Color Combination


    Here's a pretty card with a soft & soothing color combination made for an online swap.

    The colors include our new Fresh Freesia with Pool Party.  What do you think of it?  

    I featured quite a few new products on this simple card.  Here's the list:

    1. Biggest Wishes stamp set seen here.
    2. Iconic Dies for the feathers; seen here.
    3. Hello & Thanks embossing folders seen here.
    4. Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack seen here.

    The polka dot paper is from the Pattern Party host paper pack on page 171 of your catalog.  It's can only be earned with host benefits.  It's just one of the choices in the Host Rewards but my favorite by far.  It's 48 big sheets of 12 X 12" Designer Paper.  One side is colors & patterns and the other is Black & White. 

     

    The greeting label is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies seen here.  I colored our white Pearl jewels to match with the Fresh Freesia Blends marker.
