Softly Sophisticated fun-fold card with free project sheet to save & download

Here's the other fun fold card I shared on last week's Live video.  See the other one here. 

I chose to feature the new Softly Sophisticated bundle from our 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.

See this pretty bundle here. Both the stamp set & embossing folder are free with any $100 purchase through February. 

It might not look like a fun fold card, but the front main layers open instead of the entire card like this:

The colors include Bubble Bath, White and Lost Lagoon.  During my video I shared another one with Boho Blue instead.  It all depends on which sheet of the beautiful Flight & Airy designer paper you choose!

Did you wonder which dies I used on the designer paper and the greeting label?  They're the Thoughtful Expressions dies – one of my new favorites.  See them here.

See this pretty Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's free with any $50 purchase through February; while supplies last.  Don't delay if you want it! I suspect this will be one of the firsts to sell out….

• Can you tell which is stamped and which is Designer paper?

  May 13, 2021

  ---

  I made these on FB live this week using the Expressions in Ink suite.  Can you tell which background is stamped and which is Designer Paper?  

  Save

  My top favorite suite in the new Annual catalog is the Expressions in Ink.  See it here or on page 96-97.  It's filled with stamps & paper that mimic alcohol ink backgrounds.  Toss in the beautiful gold accents and it's stunning!  

  Save

  Here's a close up of the card.  Can you tell if I stamped it or if it's designer paper?  

  Save

  Yes; I did stamp it!  These images are so neat!  I can see lots of uses for both the greetings and the faux alcohol ink stamps.  See how in the video below. Mmm; I think I'll try a one sheet wonder with these…..! 

  And look at the leaves die-cuts!  I cut them from In Color Shimmer Vellum & Gold Foil paper.  The tag is from the Tailor Made Tags dies.

  Here's the FB Live replay video.  Sorry the text isn't flipped so you can read it.  FB changed their settings and the tool icon is gone.

• Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene

  May 12, 2021

  ---

  I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  I just love it!

  The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities! 

  Save

  Here's how I made it:

  1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).  
  2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
  3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS.  I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
  4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece. 
  5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side. 
  6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base. 
  7. Finish with Genial Gems.  

  You can see the beautiful Inspired Thoughts bundle here.

• Fresh In colors with new Shimmer Vellum flowers

  May 11, 2021

  ---

  I'm not sure if I'll ever get tired of playing with the new 2021-23 In colors.  They are fresh and spring-like; almost fruity. 

  For today's card I added four 1 1/4" X 4" strips of the new 6 X 6" In Color designer paper to a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" white card base. It had prominent placement on my In Color display last week at my New Catalog Launch party.  

  Save

  I cut out a die-cut label from the Scalloped Contours dies and stamped my greeting (from the Sweet Ice Cream set) using Soft Succulent ink.  

  The flowers are from the soon to retire (June 2021) Perennial dies.  The colored flowers are cut from the new Shimmer Vellum; available here in all 5 of our In Colors!  So pretty!!  

  Save

  I colored the pearls on the flowers with the In Color Blends markers. Having these coordinating Blends markers means I can color any gem I want to match! Two of these Blends are already on back-order!  They are HOT items! 

  See all of our new 2021-23 In Color products here.
