I also used another sneak peak product from the upcoming Holiday catalog; the Timber 3D embossing folder.  Of course I stamped the greeting before I embossed it.

I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on cutting these pieces and finishing the cards. 

Here is the template.  Start out with a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock AND of Designer Paper.  

Split Front Template Save

I suggest you cut this out of scrap card stock.  Make marks where indicated and cut on the diagonal.  Once you have the template I first place the bottom left piece (2 1/2") over my cut DSP & CS pieces and cut.  Then I use the upper right piece (3 3/4") on the remaining piece of papers and cut.  That leaves me with the center piece ready to go. 

Here's the video for you:

  • Season of Green & Gold Dutch Door card with free project sheet

    I shared this pretty Dutch Door card on last week's FB Live video. You can also see it here or scroll down a bit and click on the video.  

    Today's card is a Dutch Door card fold made with Mossy Meadow & White CS. 

    Greetings of the Season dutch Save

    If you've never made a Dutch Door fold I hope you try it once you see how easy they are.  It's a quarter sheet of CS in the back and a full long piece that's scored in half adhered to that.  See how it opens?

    Greetings of the Season Dutch Door Save

    The focus of my projects was the new Season of Green & Gold specialty designer paper and the new Season of Greetings stamp & die bundle seen here.

    Below are both versions I made and shared in the video below. One has a layer of the pretty Season of Green & Gold Specialty DSP on the upper portion.  Which do you prefer?

    There is a bundle of stamps & dies that coordinate with this designer paper but I didn't order them yet. I fussy cut the greenery & bells for my projects. The squares are dies from the Stylish Shapes dies seen here.

  • Get more cards in the Gorgeous Expressions of Kindness card kit

    This stunning Expressions of Kindness card kit from our Kit Collection was released last month. I made time to play with it a few days ago and it's absolutely gorgeous! 

    Expressions of Kindness all Save

    I liked the cards so well I wanted to make more than the 8 cards in the kit.  It's fun to figure out how to extend the beautiful prints on the cards and envelopes.  I decided to keep it simple and add extra card bases and leave the envelopes intact. 

    See this kit here online: 

    Expressions of Kindness kit 3 Save

    This first set of cards are almost exactly as the kit suggested except I saved the gold foil leaves for a different card.  There was enough ribbon to add a few knots on each of the above cards and still have enough for the rest of the 8 cards seen below. 

    Expressions of Kindness kit 3 Save

    Below are all three individual cards I made. 

    Expressions of Kindness 1 Save

    For the following two cards I cut the full printed card bases in half. I added 4 white card bases for the left card below. I felt the printed card with the gold foil accents was pretty enough for the ribbon & greeting image.

    Expressions of Kindness 2 Save

    For the card on the right above I cut down the card front to 4" X 5 1/4" and layered it onto 4 Blackberry Bliss card bases as seen below.  This is where I added the gold foil leaves with the greeting.

    You can see this beautiful kit here.  It's $23 and includes the 8 cards & envelopes, a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, gems, White ribbon and adhesive.

    Here's the stamp set included in this kit. The flower head fits on the purple flowers to add detail.
