Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay

This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies.  The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow my page so you get notified! 

My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies.  But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards:

I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock.  Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done!  So quick & easy! 

Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.  

Measurements:

• Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
• Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
• Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide

• Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too

  I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.

  I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

  It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.

  I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

  It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!

• Double Easel fun fold card with video & free project sheet

  I shared this neat fun fold on last week's Live video.  I record them on Facebook Live then upload to YouTube so you can view them either place.

  My color combination is Summer Splash with Black & White.  The new Botanical Textures DSP inspired this fun fold card. 

  I love how the three butterflies die-cut is placed on 3 Black circles; they would have been lost if placed directly on the DSP. 

  We made this project at last week's Team gathering.  They loved it!
