Springtime Scenes diagonal fold – 2 ways!

I’m excited to share this neat card with you today. We made it at my April Card Clubs.

Isn’t it beautiful? It features the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here and the Delicate Dreams DSP seen here. This DSP is so pretty they cannot keep it in stock! Be sure to add your email to the product so you get notified when it comes back in stock.

This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.

My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.

We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?

• Beautiful Fall card swaps!

  October 5, 2021

  Look at these stunning swaps made by my Team.  Our theme for September's swap was autumn cards. 

  Annette created this first one using a innovative sponging technique

  I'm sure you cannot guess how she did this …..! 

  It features the Welcoming Woods stamp set seen here. She used a variety of colors like Highland Heather, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight.  

  Here's how she did it: She gathered up a sheet of plastic wrap and dabbed it in ink a few times.  Then she dabbed it horizontally across her stamped image piece.  With each color change, she re-rolled the plastic wrap & blended the previous one a bit to achieve a beautiful sunset look.

  She added some of the leaves from the stamp set to the inside as well.

• Gorgeous Leaves paired with the Timber embossing folder

  October 1, 2021

  ---

  Today I get to share two cards made by my talented Team members who used the beautiful Gorgeous Leaves bundle seen here.  I shared a bunch earlier this week as well. Click here to see them. 

  First is a beautiful card made by Marilyn.  Her colors include Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Old Olive & Crushed Curry.

  It's hard to see in this photo but after she stamped the background she ran it through the die-cutting machine with the Timber embossing folder.  

  Her die-cut leaves are darker than the normal hues since she sponged the corresponding color over each one.  Neat effect! 

  Measurements: 

  • Crumb Cake 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Cajun Craze 3 3/4" X 5" & Stitched So Sweetly die-cut 2 1/2" X 3 5/8"
  • Vanilla 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" & 2 1/8" X 3 1/4"

  Next is a lovely card made by Deloris. She also used the Timber embossing folder seen here. 

  She also added a strip of the Cork specialty paper.  This paper can be found in the Holiday catalog on page 55.  It sure adds a neat touch to autumn or men's cards!

  Her colors include Early Espresso, Cajun Craze & Bumblebee. 

  Measurements:

  • Early Espresso card 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
  • Cajun Craze 3 3/4" X 5"
  • White 3 1/4" X 4 1/2"
