Split Front card technique; it’s easy with my template & video!

July 30, 2021

We made this pretty set of cards on Monday night's Stamp with Me Live. It's the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm CT. Click here and follow my page to get notified when I'm live. There are 6 live videos each month!

I used the Beauty of the Earth DSP seen here. The die-cuts are from the Iconic and Artistic dies. in White & Misty Moonlight. The greeting is from the In Symmetry stamp set. Those pretty Subtle Shimmer sequins are from the upcoming Holiday catalog which starts next week!!

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.

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:

Sweet Citrus; in a Lime version too!

March 10, 2023

The Sweet Citrus bundle can make any citrus fruit you'd like. I've even seen people make coconuts!

I've shared three other cards featuring oranges, grapefruit and lemons but today I'm sharing my 'Lime' version.

Save

I used the Sweet Citrus bundle seen here and these colors: Starry Sky, Parakeet Party and Granny Apple Green. I cased it from a card made by Maheswari Rajaguru. I think these colors are stunning together.

That pretty texture on the card front is made with the new Basic Embossing Folders 3D seen here. They're in a 3 pack and in our Online Exclusives product line seen here.

Did you know you can use our Hybrid embossing folders to texture and die-cut all at once? You can use the dies and folder separately as well but together it's faster and saves a step.*Watch in the video below to see how it's done.

Save

I also show how to stamp the fruit perfectly using the Stamparatus. Perfect every time!

Here's a photo of the inside:
