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.

• Neat Accordion Window Flip card fold with Crane of Fortune with video!

  April 11, 2022

  ---

  I shared a few fun fold cards on last week's Tuesday Facebook Live.  I featured the Crane of Fortune bundle from the 2022 Spring Catalog by Stampin' Up!  This bundle is not returning in the new Annual Catalog next month. See it here

  It's beautiful in Gray Granite, Calypso Coral and Evening Evergreen.  The colors were chosen because of the Symbols of Fortune specialty DSP.  It's gorgeous!  The photo below does NOT do it justice!

  The Good Fortune dies coordinate with this designer paper.  I was able to cut the pretty flower on the front directly from this paper.  I did fussy cut the smaller flower to add above it.  

  Isn't this a neat fun fold?  And it's so easy too.  Watch the video below or click here.  It includes another unique fun fold as well as an easy card with your designer paper.

  I die-cut the window and the rectangle layers with the Stitched Rectangle dies seen here.  Love these dies!

  Other products include the Hippo & Friend dies (retired now), the Layering Circles dies and the 1/4" white seam binding ribbon.

  Here are the simple measurements: 

  • Black card base 5 1/2" X 5 1/4" scored at 1" on the 5 1/4" side 
  • DSP 3/4" X 5 1/4" strip & 4" X 5 1/4" for the front flap
  • White inside is 4" X 5 1/4" 

  See how it shows off the other side of your Designer Paper?  I love it!  Think how many pretty cards you could make with this layout and use up your designer paper too!

  My card base is Granny Apple Green and the greeting is stamped twice; once on the Label Me Lovely punched piece and again on a strip of Melon Mambo CS. 

  This paper is so gorgeous I decided to feature it for one of my Card kits to go this month.  See the PDF tutorial option here. This fun fold card is included in the tutorial!
