Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video

May 24, 2021

I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest. I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

Save

The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies. The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month.

Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle. This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.

I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion. There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words. My favorite is 'Happy Mail'. Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying? It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.

Save

For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set.

Save

I made a quick video on putting this card together. You can see it below.

Who knew?!

If someone had told me I'd be doing 8 videos a month 10 years ago I would have scoffed!

One of my best friends encouraged me to do videos years ago and I told here I would never, ever do videos. She loved to remind me about that! *Sadly she passed away a few months ago.

I've been watching my YouTube subscribers grow and grow and cannot believe that I now have over 15,000 people following me! Incredible!

Turtle & Friends Fun Fold swaps

February 4, 2022
Today I have a few special fun fold cards made with the Turtle & Friends bundle seen here. They were for a Flowerbug's Team swap we held last month with an 'Animal Fun Fold' theme.

The first card was made by Paula. Her cute card is called a Double Dutch Door fold.

Save

I love the rounded corners on her front layer and the sweet background made with images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set. She sponged the sky & grass too.

Measurements:
- Evening Evergreen card base 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" tall scored at 5 1/2", and the lower doors piece is 8 1/2" X 3" wide scored at 2 1/8" & 6 3/8"
- White upper stamped layer is 4" X 2 3/4"
- Lower DSP (Pattern Party host) layer is 1 3/4" X 2 3/4
- Granny Apple Green inside is 4" X 5 1/4"
To put this card together you add the scored horizontal piece to the vertical card base and add the inside layer over it.
Save

Next is a fun fancy fold card made by Marla. I'd forgotten about this unique card fold! It looks like a normal card at first glance.

Save

But when you lift the front it reveals this!

Save

She used the Expressions in Ink specialty DSP in the annual catalog for her card front. She also used the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder for the Garden Green strip.

Measurements:
- Garden Green 2 pieces at 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" plus a 1 1/2" X 4" piece for the embossed strip
- Whisper White inside is 3 3/4" X 11" scored at 1" & 6"
- Expressions in Ink DSP 4" X 5 1/4"
