Trusty Toolbox Bridge fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

If you love fun folds you'll appreciate my weekly videos. I like to share fancy fold cards or techniques in my Tuesday Live videos – seen each week at 11 am CT. If you enjoy watching Live please subscribe to my Facebook page here.  Or watch them later on my YouTube channel here.  

Don't you love this special card?!  Men's cards can be hard to make; many of use gals lean towards florals don't we? I appreciate when Stampin' Up! brings us products we can make for our men.

My colors include Black, Poppy Parade, Pebbled Path, Gray Granite & White. This special designer paper can be earned free now during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase through Stampin' Up!.  See it here. I think Stampin' Up! was so clever to create designer paper that mimics tools, toolbox and peg board!

I suggest ordering the Trusty Toolbox bundle and then choose the designer paper as your free Sale-a-Bration choice.  See the bundle here online.

  • Under the Moon Dutch-door card with video & free project tutorial

    I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's video. It features the Under The Moon stamp set which is what I refer to as a 'scene builder' set – one of my favorites to play with.  It's super fun & easy to create with! 

    Under the Moon Pink Save

    See the two toned clouds & moon?  I used sponge daubers and 'direct to ink' techniques for this. You can see how it's done in the video here or below.

    Below is the view when the card is open.

    When making a Dutch door fold you have a few choices on adding the front half. You can make your 'door' an inch or so wider than 5 1/2" so you can add the score line. Or make it 11" wide and score it at 5 1/2".  Or the other option is to cut a full size card – 4 1/4" X 11", score it at 5 1/2" and cut off the section you do not want.

    My card stock colors include: Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy and White.  To these I also added these inks: Azure Afternoon (water & sky) & Peach Pie (moon) and Smoky Slate (clouds). 

    See the Under the Moon stamp set here.  I also used the Unbounded Love bundle for the greetings & dies seen here.  Remember that starting Wednesday all stamp & die bundles are an extra 10% off and will be 20% off through June.

  • Basic Beige; a beautiful new neutral color in our line. Last day for the In Color deal!

    Everyone is loving the new Basic Beige color Stampin' Up! added to our basics line this year.  

    I created this card for a recent online swap I joined. It features one of my recent favorite sets; Wildflower Designs.

    I paired it with Copper Clay and White here.  We have four new products in Basic Beige – card stock, ink, ink refill and ribbon. It's a beautiful neutral! 

    There are coordinating dies to go with this pretty set too.  See this bundle  here:

    Details on this card:

    • The wood designer paper on the sides is from the Meandering Meadows 6" paper pack. 
    • The rectangle die-cut is from the Radiating Stitches dies which recently retired from our Online Exclusives. 
    • The background was made by stamping the little hashtag type stamp repeatedly in Basic Beige ink.

  • A Little Latte cards – all made from leftovers on my desk!

    I decided to have a staycation this last weekend. I rarely take a day off at home; it seems like the only time I take an entire day off is if I leave town.  I tried my hardest to stay out of my studio on Saturday.  I lasted until 5 pm; then I couldn't resist playing a bit. 

    A little Latte cards . Save

    I had a bunch of fussy cut coffee cups in a baggie and thought they'd make great thank you cards. So I pulled out my A Little Latte designer paper pack and some extra greeting tags and made these cards. 

    The designer paper pieces were either strips or squares so I arranged the fussy cut coffee cups over the largest pieces.  I think they turned out great for cards made without a plan!

    The only thing I purposefully prepped were the card bases and White textured layers (So Swirly embossing folder seen here). The rest are all scraps!
