Sweet Encircled with Love Valentine’s card

Tracey created this striking card with the Made with Love designer paper:

I love the abstract designer paper pieces she added to her White layer. Then to make sure the greeting was the focal point she added the top square of DSP. Perfect!
This is a great example of taking leftover pieces of coordinating DSP and layering them up. A great way to use scraps!

She used the Encircled with Love stamp set seen here along with the 1 3/4″ & 1 7/8″ circle punches. Her colors include Real Red, Flirty Flamingo with White which she got from the pretty designer paper.

Your card inspired me to look at and use my DSP scraps Tracey! Thank you.

  I was inspired to make this fun chevron card fold when my friend Susie Wood shared hers with me.  It's a neat way to use your scraps of designer paper for a unique card front.  See hers here.  

  I chose to use the Botanically Inked designer paper for my cards.

  I made one before and one during a recent live video. See it here.  

  I also created a project sheet with photos and measurements for you to print out.  I'm doing this for all of my video projects now! Download Chevron Designer Paper project sheet

  I've used the Inked & Tiled stamp set a lot; I love the images and the greetings fit in the Double Oval punch perfectly! 

  The designer paper is the Inked Botanicals seen here.

• Inked Botanicals Diagonal Z-fold card; with a free printable project sheet!

  August 29, 2023

  Each month at my local Card Clubs we make at least one fun fold card.  Here's the  pretty card we made in August:

  It's called a Diagonal Z-fold card.  You might think it looks a bit intimidating but it's really not.  I shared how to make it in a recent video seen here.  Plus I have a free project sheet for you as well!  Download Diagonal Z-fold card

  I textured the Lost Lagoon layer with either the 3D Basics folders or the Painted Texture 3D folder.

  My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and White with a bit of Vellum added with the die-cut leaf (Gorgeously Made dies).  The other sprig and leaf are from the Bough punch (temporarily out of stock). 

  Below is the template I made.  You start out with an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock.  Make a mark at 3" down from the upper right and 3" up from the lower left.  Cut in half on the diagonal.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  Then place the flat side of the card stock on your paper trimmer or scoring board and score at 4 1/4" and 8".  That's it!  

  To create the diagonal layers for each area you start with full rectangles like a normal card and cut off the upper portion at an angle. Measurements are given in the project sheet above.
