  • Neat Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet

    I shared this neat fun fold card on last week’s video. It is the standard size card but shows off your designer paper so nicely.

    Save

    The 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock has an extra score line on the front left. This gives you a spot for a DSP strip and to adhere a 4 1/4″ piece of DSP under that flap. It opens fully because the DSP is only attached to the scored flap. So cool!
    My colors include Misty Moonlight, Strawberry Slush & Crushed Curry; taken from the designer series paper. The little butterflies dies are from the Cutest Crew dies. That greeting is from the Springtime Scenes dies.

    I used the new Homemade Sweetness DSP here with the greeting from the Cutest Crew stamp set. The checked Misty Moonlight ribbon is in the suite with the Homemade Sweetness DSP. There is also a stamp & dies bundle and gems. Here’s a link to the DSP:

    I did create a free project sheet for this card so you can make this fun fold too. Click here to access it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this sweet card; I hope you watch it.

  • Cutest Crew card swap

    Here’s the card I made for our latest Team card swap. What do you think of the color combo?

    Save

    As you can see, I used the Cutest Crew bundle here. I’m a cat owner so I chose the cats. My colors include Crushed Curry, Smoky Slate, White and Basic Gray.

    This adorable bundle is in our Online store and was available last week but now the dies are out of stock again. I have a feeling this is how it will be for awhile. We all love our pets! You can see the Cutest Crew bundle here or the stamp set alone here. *Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get notified when it’s back in stock.

    Save

    The largest card base is Crushed Curry and the next layer is Smoky Slate which is the part that opens.

    I colored in the images with Blends markers. It was fun to color them in cat like patterns.

    Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you like my cards.

  • More Team card swaps

    Today I’m sharing the other card swaps my Team members made featuring Online Exclusive products.

    First is Karen’s card made with the Homemade Sweetness suite seen here.

    Save

    It’s a book-binding fold where the left side is adhered together and just the right part opens.

    Check out the embossed layers with the Ladybug Picnic embossing folder. It’s so neat! Unfortunately it’s out of stock right now; but it will be back. If you want it be sure to add your email to the product to be informed when it’s back.

    Next is Candy’s card made with the Cutest Crew stamp set seen here. She wanted to use the dies but they were out of stock. They came back for two days and are now out of stock again! Popular set!

    Save

    Her colors are stunning! Bubble Bath with Smoky Slate and White. She stamped the kittens on the Nested Essentials die-cut and colored them in with Smoky Slate & Bubble Bath Blends markers. The embossing folder is the Hearts of Love embossing folder.

    Here’s Joan’s card featuring the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper.

    She layered 3 different pieces of this foiled paper with Pretty in Pink before adding her greeting layer on top. Neat layout!

    Lastly is Jess’s card featuring the Lovely Stripes embossing folder seen here.

    Save

    The vertical strips of DSP are from the Made with Love. I like how she alternated the DSP strips with the card stock strips. This is the first swap she joined; she did a great job!

    Her greeting is from the Cutest Crew stamp set.

    That’s it for our March swaps. I hope you are inspired by their creations!
