Witty-Cisms Fun-Fold card


The Witty-Cisms stamp set is a great all occasions set with fun images and cute greetings to match.  See it here. I created this cute card for a recent online card swap.

It's a fun fold card with a double opening.  The Real Red flap is scored and the scored edge is adhered under the inside White layer.  The Granny Apple Green main card is standard size but 1" is cut off the right edge to reveal the White inside.  The new Coastal Weave embossing folder was used on the front.  This embossing folder is the one I'm giving to all online orders over $65 in January.  

Sometimes with this type of fold I add the designer paper to the inside right edge so it shows from the front. This time I added it to the very front along with a stitched scalloped edge piece die-cut with the Stitched Be Mine dies seen here.  

Here are the measurements:

  • Granny Apple Green main card 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  
  • White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Real Red 4" X 2 1/2"
  • Black 2 1/4" X 3 1/4"
  • 1" X 5 1/2" Granny Apple Green gingham DSP; *from the Brights 6 X 6" DSP pack seen here. 

And more details: 

  • I added a butterfly die-cut from the upcoming Nature's Thoughts dies.  They'll be available in February in the Coordination Product Release.
  • I stamped the main image three times; once on the White punch and again on Real Red for the strawberry and again on scraps of Green. These are cut out and popped up on the main image.
  • White label is the new Label Me Lovely punch seen here.  I love this new punch!  A 1 3/4" circle punch fits inside it for layering. And oval shapes do as well! 

You can find these items in my online store here.

  • Create this eye-catching scene with ink and blending brushes; video tutorial too!


    Here's another card I created on last week's video. Do you love colorful scenes too? 

    Here I used Cloud Cover cardstock for my base; scored it an extra time to create a flap near the center. This is a great way to add the main element of your card.  In this case it's a stamped and colored tree scene on our new Party Banner dies.  

    I found the Peaceful Pier stamp set seen here to be perfect for my scenes. It's a great line-art set you don't have to color in, as you can see in my example. 

    Here is the free project sheet with measurements and supplies listed: Click on the following link to download it.  Download Peaceful Pier fun fold scene

    I am now adding my project sheets to my Flowerbug's Stamp & Share FB group the same day I share the live video.  Click here to join the group. 

    I used these inks for blending; from bottom to top – Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Cloud Cover. Blending brushes make it easy to add ink smoothly. But there are tricks to it!  

    Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes.  I hope you watch it!

  • How to create a beautiful scene with the Peaceful Pier set; a free project sheet & video tutorial


    I shared a video tutorial on how to create this gorgeous scene last week.  

    I used the Peaceful Pier stamp set, inks and blending brushes.  

    I first stamped the dock and tree images using Black Memento ink. Then added a few more 'grass' images at the bottom. Next you add ink with Blending Brushes.  I used Lost Lagoon for the water, Granny Apple Green for the grass, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight for the sky. 

    I did color the dock and trees with Blends markers. I did not need to mask anything. As long as you're adding ink lightly with the Blending Brushes you shouldn't need to.  

    After I was finished adding color I used the Textured Notes dies to cut my image into 2 pieces. Ad added the frame to a Black CS layer and added the center with Stampin' Dimensionals.  I love the dimension this gives to the card scene.

  • Celebratory Sips card kit to go with PDF tutorial option & exclusive video!


    Here's my newest pre-cut card kit to go – featuring the Celebratory Sips designer series paper.  I love that this paper is so unique; something we haven't had before. 

    There are 10 cards in this kit; most are fun fold layouts too.  This paper was super fun to play with.  I love how the cards turned out!  

    The kit includes 1/2 pkg of the Celebratory Sips DSP (6" X 12), a share of both 1/8" gold trim and Low-profile gems.  Plus you get the pdf tutorial free!  It also includes an exclusive video tutorial. 

    This kit will be ailed out at the end of June;  reserve your Celebratory Sips pre-cut card kit to go here.  

    Or choose the PDF tutorial here for $16. 

    I also added two other new kits to my shop too.  You can save on shipping and get more for your $$ when you purchase more than one kit. See them all here. 

    First is the Painted Petals 12 card kit – created with a former Paper Pumpkin kit but jazzed up with extra cards & product. See it here. 

    Next is the Daisy Daydream 12 card kit – also created with a previous Paper Pumpkin kit – I changed up the cards, added 3 extra cards, gems & ribbon added. See it here.
