Sending Love Artist of the Month – party 2


Here are the second set of Sending Love cards by our Artist of the Month – Donna.  See the first batch here.   

First up today is a fabulous fun fold card.  

I often forget to cut apart my sentiment like this.  It sure adds a playful note!

The cute grass and mailbox die-cuts are all from the Sending Love bundle seen here.  The stamp set & dies are returning in the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off. 

It starts out as a vertical card with this cute mailbox scene.  But when you open it…… you get a horizontal card!

I only opened the upper flap in the photo above.  You can see how it turns from a vertical card to a landscape card.  Here's what it looks like fully opened.  I love that you can read the greetings either way! 

Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue card stock – 2 pieces at 10 1/4" X 4 1/4". Score each in at 4 3/4".  Then mark at 4" and score from that mark to the outside corner.  The two pieces are adhered together in the center (under the large white layer) 
  • White – inside is 5 1/4" X 4", side triangles started out at 3 3/4" square; cut in half on the diagonal.

Next is a sweet pocket card.  Don't you love her beautiful sponging?! 

This card has a hidden pocket between the layers.  See that little envelope sticking out?  

Measurements:

  • Moody Mauve – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  • Sponged Postage die-cut 3 5/8" X 5"
  • Inside White 2 7/8" X 4 1/8"
  • Bubble Bath 3" X 4 1/4"

Lastly is this adorable hello card with the cutest envelopes on front!  These are also included in the Sending Love dies. 

She also used the Deckled Circle dies and the Lighter Than Air designer paper (retiring).  The envelopes match the DSP – Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly & Calypso Coral. 

Thanks so much for creating and sharing these amazing cards with us Donna!!

  • A neat Tower card with video & free project sheet with Peaceful Garden


    I just love this fun fold ‘tower’ card layout! It gives you lots of opportunities to feature your designer paper.

    I featured the Peace on Earth bundle and the Modern Garden designer paper. The colors include White, Secret Sea and Silver. The Peace on Earth bundle was a ‘must have’ for me because of the pretty greetings and layering die-cuts. I like that the greetings include more than just Christmas making it quite versatile.

    This Tower card fun fold is made with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock but scored 5 times across the long edge. Then you simply adhere the ends together and allow the other end to open. Genius!

    Note how the center panel swivels a bit…. I stamped one card with a holiday greeting and the other with a sympathy greeting. You can see the back side of the Holiday card here. I pulled out a Paper Pumpkin stamp set to fit.

    I love the textured embossing on the left White panel. That is from the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder seen here. I used just the side of this folder to achieve the textured edge.

    I created a free project sheet for this card; simply click on this link to print or download it.

    Here’s the tip on how the front panel swivels a bit on the fold. So easy to achieve!

    It’s two strips of card stock about 1/2″ wide and 1″ long folded in half. Each half is adhered with the fold on the main card fold.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card, another pretty Christmas card and a candy bar treat holder.

  • An easy Gift Card idea for Christmas with free project sheet


    I shared this pretty card on last week’s video. It has an option for a gift card hidden inside.

    Isn’t it pretty? I featured the Modern Christmas suite here with the specialty DSP and the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here.

    I just love the font on the greetings and the unique coordinating dies in this bundle.
    My colors are classy in Black, White and Gold foil. You might notice two different embossing folders on the White layer. One is the Traditional Wreath 3D and the other is the Forever Plaid 3D.

    There is a scored line on the front layer to create a pocket for a gift card inside. I used a punch to create a bit of interest on it.

    What do you think of this color combination for Christmas? I worried some might not like it but everyone at my Clubs loved this card. The Modern Christmas designer paper seen here is gorgeous with it’s fun patterns.

    I did heat emboss the greeting with Gold embossing powder and punched it out with the Labeled with Love punch. The bits of Gold foil all over this card really make it special!

    I created a free project sheet for this card and also a video with tips & step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

    You can watch the video below to see how to assemble this card. There are also two more projects you’ll want to see!
