Quiet Reflection and Delightful Floral Fancy Fold card swaps with measurements!


Today I'm sharing the last of our Team fun fold swaps. I'm adding measurements for each of them.  If you've missed the previous posts please click on the title of this post and scroll to see each one.  

The first card was made by Candy. She made a simple fold back card that is so easy but so pretty!

She is featuring the Quiet Reflection stamp set seen here.  Her samples and the next one sold me on this set. I love that it's a monochromatic card – it's totally fitting for this set. 

Product used: Deckled Rectangles, Softly Sophisticated stamps & embossing folder (SAB), Gold & Vanilla 3/8" satin edges ribbon

Measurements:

  • Misty Moonlight card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • Vanilla 1 7/8" X 5 1/4" textured layer, inside is 4" X 5 1/4", die-cut is 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
  • Misty Moonlight die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 7/8"

Karen made this next card using the same Quiet Reflection stamp set. Her beautiful card is also monochromatic; using Pebbled Path with Vanilla. 

The front layer opens to reveal a second inside layer that opens.  Quite unique and actually easy to make too.  

Measurements:

  • Pebbled Path card base 6 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", front layer 2 3/4" X 3 3/4", inside is 2 7/8" X 3 3/4"
  • Vanilla front is 2 1/2" X 3 1/2", inside is 7 3/4" X 4 3/4" score at 3 7/8", greeting strip is 3 1/2" X 1/2" 
  • DSP 2" X 5 1/2"

Paula made this beautiful card with a few of our Online Exclusive products.  We have sooo many now & more coming in March! Check them all out here; I know you'll see a few new things!

The designer paper is the Delightful Floral seen here.  She used the pretty Translucent Floral bundle for her greetings and die-cuts.  See it here. 

Measurements:

  • Parakeet Party card base 11" X 5 1/4" score at 4" & 5 3/4" for the right two score lines. From the left score down at 1 3/4" to the 1 1/4" mark from the top and up from the bottom. Move over to the 3 1/2" mark (from the left) and do this again. Now you'll cut across from the first score line to the 5 1/4" score line and cut across.  
  • Mossy Meadow 2 1/2" square, 1 1/2" X 2 1/2", plus the back card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  • White inside is 3 3/4" X 5", 2 1/4" square and 1 1/4" X 2 1/4"
  • Vellum, DSP & black pieces for flowers & leaves *she colored her vellum
  • DSP – 2 pieces 1 1/2" X 5 1/4", 4 pieces 1 1/2" X 1" 

It's quite the special card isn't it?  It's called a side shutter card and was cased from Wendy Cranford. This paper and bundle are definitely my style. 

I hope you've enjoyed our many samples of fancy fold cards this past week.  My Flowerbug's are the best!

  • Green & Gold fun fold card with Changing Leaves bundle; & a free project sheet too!


    Today I'm sharing the second card I made during last week's Live video. My projects focused on new Online Exclusive products.  There's lots of beautiful texture on this monochromatic card.

    This card features multiple new Online Exclusive products released last week.

    Did you know that Stampin' Up! releases a bunch of new online extras multiple times a year?  These items are not in any printed publication and are seen only online. Most people don't realize that they can be ordered online or at local events.

  • Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

    It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

    I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

    My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

    In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

    For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

    The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

    Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!

  • Lily Pond Lane card kit – limited quantities!


    The adorable Lily Pond Lane designer paper is the star of these colorful cards. I created 5 card designs; 3 of which are fun folds. What I like about this DSP is how versatile it is; young or old, men, women or kids – it's great for anyone! 

    Each month I create two card kits where the DSP is the focus of the projects. These cards can be purchased as a pre-cut kit to go or choose the PDF tutorial option. Those who choose the kit will make 2 each of the 5 cards for a total of 10 cards.

    I have a limited number of kits available due to limited stock; opt in soon! 

    This kit includes the following Stampin' Up! products:

    • 10 pre-cut cards including die-cuts and punched pieces
    • 1/2 pkg of Lily Pond Lane 6 X 6" designer paper (some fussy cutting needed)
    • a share of Dappled Dots gems
    • a share of Peach Pie 3/8" ribbon
    • the free PDF tutorial with measurements, photos, supplies list and step by step directions.

    You will need the following to complete the cards:

    • Pretty Peacock ink (or a similar color)
    • Greeting images (i used Simply Said & Unbounded Love but any will work)
    • Paper snips scissors & Paper Trimmer, Adhesives 

    Opt in for the pre-cut card kit ($30) with products here.  Or choose the PDF tutorial option for $15 here.
