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….

• Life is Beautiful fun fold cards with video!

  December 31, 2020

  ---

  Here are the two cards I made on FB Live last week.  I had to ink up my Life is Beautiful stamp set one more time. Sadly it's retiring on January 4th.  

  Save

  This first card is made with Purple Posy & Gray Granite.  I cut off 1 1/2" from the front layer to reveal a bit of the inside.  I used the Stamparatus to stamp both the tree and greeting at the same time.  I love it for mass producing!  Perfect every time!

  I used Highland Heather ink for the bokeh dots in this set; stamped off a few times.  That neat texture is a new folder in the upcoming Spring catalog called Painted Texture.

• Oh So Ombre cards; quick & easy with my 2-cut template!

  December 30, 2020

  ---

  Check out these cute cards made with the upcoming Sale-a-Bration FREE designer paper called 'Oh So Ombre'.  I created them on my Stamp with Me FB Live Monday night.  I created a template to chop up a piece of designer paper into 4 pieces. See the video below. 

  Save

  It's a pack of 48 sheets in 6 X 6" size with beautiful colors & patterns with a gradual color change.  One side is smooth and the other features the fun dots.  

  You'll be able to earn this paper pack FREE with a $50 order during our annual Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It starts in just 6 days and runs from January 5th – February 28th, 2021.

  I made these 3 cards with the Dandy Garden Designer Paper (another sneak peak; from the 2021 Spring Catalog) with my template seen below.  

  Save

  Start out with a piece of double sided Designer Paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" and then cut it into 4 pieces using the template below.  Then, mix & match your pieces on a 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base.  

  Tips:

  • This is easiest if you use patterns without a direction on them; such as flowers that grow up from the bottom or words. 
  • Choose one pack of DSP that coordinates well and cut 2-3 pieces in a variety of patterns.  It's fun to mix & match them.

• New: Vine Design Dutch Door fold card

  December 29, 2020

  ---

  I made several cards for online swaps featuring products in the upcoming 2021 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalog.  This pretty fun fold card was one of them.  I gravitate towards anything with leaves or vines so I knew I'd like this set called Vine Design.  

  Save

  The colors here are Night of Navy, Seaside Spray & Old Olive with White. I used my Stamparatus for the vine image; it's so perfect for multiple cards!  Perfect inking and placement each time. 

  See that greeting & layered ovals?  We have a new   DOUBLE OVAL PUNCH!!!  I'm so excited about this one.  I've missed out oval punches so much and now both are in one!

  • Ink – Old Olive, Navy, Seaside Spray
  • CS -  Old Olive, Navy, Seaside Spray, Whisper White
