• Pleased as Punch; another fun fold card with optional pocket

  February 12, 2020

  ---

  I am loving the spring-like Pleased as Punch designer paper; it's available now while supplies last!  See it here. I highly suspect this paper will run out before the end of March.  I have no inside information but it's happened before and if you really want it; don't wait!  click here to get yours. 

  Save

  I knew I wanted to make the focus of this card a square shape so I could add four pieces of the Designer Paper on the front with the greeting on top. So I had to figure out a way for the side to be separate.  I rarely make square cards so this was my compromise.  

  I adhered the side flap to the card base just at the outside edges to form a pocket.  This is for either money or a gift card. 

  Save

  Details:

  • Front greeting is Seriously the Best stamp set.  I cut apart the 'Hello Friend' greeting so I could ink it up separately. 
  • Inside stamps and front flowers are from the Thoughtful Blooms set; free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.
  • Flower punch is the Small Bloom punch; free during Sale-a-Bration.
  • Front stitched die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies 

  Measurements:

  • Mango Melody card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  I cut up to the score line at 1 1/4" on the outside edge. The extra piece is textured with the Coastal Weave embossing folder.  It measures 7/8" X 4"
  • White – 4" square
  • Balmy Blue 1" X 5"

  If you like this unique designer paper check out my Pleased as Punch Fun Fold card kit to go here.  There are just 4 days left to opt in on it.

• Power of Hope meets Peacock Foil

  February 11, 2020

  ---

  For our February Flowerbug's Team swap we chose to do a swap featuring Sale-a-Bration cards.  They are all fantastic!  Over the top wonderful.  I cannot wait to share them all with you.  

  Here's the one I made using the Power of Hope bundle seen here.  It's one of the free items you receive with purchase during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from now through March 31st; or while supplies last.  I do suspect this will sell out before March is over.  

  Save

  I textured the Noble Peacock Foil (seen here) with the Stone embossing folder from this bundle.  Adding texture to this pretty foil brings it over the top! I also added a layer of vellum and a few flags of Peacock foil.  It comes in 6 single-sided sheets of 12 X 12" foil paper. 2 each of 3 colors: Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, Pretty Peacock.  There are Noble Peacock rhinestones that match this paper perfectly.

  Measurements:

  • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White stamped layer  2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
  • Vellum 2 3/4" X 4"
  • Foil paper 2 1/2" X 4 3/4" plus two 3/8" strips
  • Black 4" X 5 1/4"

• Seriously the Best Cards with Golden Honey Folio gift pouch & video

  February 10, 2020

  ---

  I made this gorgeous cards & folio pouch project two weeks ago on Facebook Live.  Join me each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Follow my FB page here. 

  Save

  I chose to use the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Paper for my color inspiration.  It's Black, White with Gold foil accents. Measurements and details are below.  

  Save

  As you can see I made a few cards with just black, white and gold. Then I added color on the other with Melon Mambo & used just the black and white DSP.  You can add any of your favorite colors to this pretty paper; Black and White is just the beginning!

  Here are the measurements for the folio pouch and cards.

  • Folio is 8 1/2" X 11".  Score on the long side at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4". Score on the short side at 6 1/2".
  • DSP on the front is 4 1/2" X 5 3/4" and the white layer is 4 5/8" X 6" 
  • Cards measure 4 1/4" X 9"; scored at 5 1/2". DSP is 3 1/4" X 4" and 1 7/8" X 4".

  Here's the Melon Mambo version of this folio:

  The little leaves and butterfly are from the Nature's Thoughts dies seen here.
