See them all! Two different versions of this fun fold card with gift card option

Monday night we made these neat fun fold cards on FB Live. If you're not following me on Facebook you can do so here.  I do 6 Facebook lives a month!  

4 square Side flap card FB Live Save

The top two cards feature the Tidings & Trimmings bundle & the Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP. Both are in a suite seen in the annual catalog on pages 88-89 or here. 

The bottom two cards feature the new Eden's Garden stamp set & the Ever Eden specialty designer paper.  See them both here. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" plus 1" X 4" strip for embossed layer. *To cut the front flap, cut at the 4 1/4" point to the score line. 
  • Cherry Cobbler card stock 4" square, plus 3/4" X 5" strip
  • DSP 1 7/8" squares X 4 (can be 1 3/4" to leave a space between like the card on the lower left)
  • White inside layer 3 1/2" square

Do you see the difference in the two cards below?  Note the space between the designer paper squares on the left card. The DSP squares on the left are 1 3/4" in size.  The DSP on the right card are 1 7/8" in size so they have no space in between. 

*If you love this stamp set & Designer Paper you should get it this month.  I'm giving away a free cards kit with online orders this month plus a PDF tutorial with 22 projects! See details below.

Share your version of this card in my FB group here by November 21st to get in the drawing for a door prize! 

See how the card is cut partway?  The flap on the right is adhered down. But, you can leave it partially open enough to add a gift card in the pocket!

  • Hippest Hippos; lots of creative ideas for you!

    Today I'm sharing some wonderful swap cards I received from other talented Demonstrators – all featuring the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  They're both free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order during July & August. 

    Hippo set & dies Save

    But remember these Sale-a-Bration items are only available while supplies last.  Already they are out of TWO choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The Rings of Love 12" DSP and the Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes.  So if you have something from the SAB catalog on your wish list; get it soon!  

     

    Hippos Amanda Save

    What an amazing scene Amanda created here!  So many details!  I especially appreciate that she colored her hippo in Pool Party; who says they have to be gray?

    Her background is made with the Rays of Light stamp seen here.  The rest is all Sale-a-Bration items.  Her colors include Pool Party, White, Crumb Cake & Crushed Curry

    She stamped the greeting from Amazing Phrases and fussy cut it, placing it between 'waves'. She added Wink of Stella to her water.  The little splashes of water & the life preserver truly make this scene complete!

    One of my favorites was made by Gwen.  The way she added ribbon for a 'towel' on the silver/metal tub is genius!! 

    ~~~ 

    Hippos Kelly Save

    Kelly created a cute scene mostly with the Hippo dies.  Her colors are Smoky Slate, Real Red & Balmy Blue.  The little water splash die-cuts add motion to the scene!

    Hippos Amanda Save

    Mary, one of my Flowerbug team members, made this cute card for her Card Club this month. She used a blending Brush with Flirty Flamingo ink for a soft background.  The lights and bow at the top are from the Tree Lot dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  See them here.  

    ~~~

    Hippos Amy Save

    This cute card was made by Amy Storrie.  I love the sunglasses!  The other neat thing she did was to use the Hippo dies along with the Stitched Circle in the Beautiful Shapes dies so they match up perfectly!  Her Designer Paper is the Cottage Gingham in the Holiday catalog.  

    You can see the Hippest Hippos stamp set here and the Hippo dies here.  Get them both free with a $100 online order and you'll also receive my free July cards kit!  Offer good through Saturday, July 30th.

  • Cows or Hippos? Your choice!

    Here's another adorable card I shared in my video yesterday.  I featured projects with the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  This time I turned them into cows!  It's so easy to change them up!  

    Hippest Hippos cows Save

    I simply left the main body white and added splotches of Black spots here and there.  I colored their faces and bellies in with a Light Petal Pink blends marker. 

    I used our new Masking Paper to add 'grass' on the lower part of the card.  I used Blending Brushes for this and the sky.  

    I had left over packets from Club and made a bunch.  I sent them out as thank you cards for online orders.  Did you get one?

    Here's a choice for you; which do you prefer?  I shared the lower right card yesterday and changed it up from hippos to cows.  Either works in my opinion!  Get the details in yesterday's post here.
