Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too


I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.  

I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.  

I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!  

I hope you'll watch the video below to see how to assemble this neat card. It's super fun to play with.  

Here is the free project sheet with measurements & directions. Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Floating Center pop out card

 

Below is the video tutorial: I hope you watch it and see the other really special fancy fold.  I'll share that tomorrow!

  • Happy Easter with a Floating Die-cuts Technique card


    Our family gathers together for Easter most of the time; when we can that is. 

    We do jelly bean hunts with our granddaughter inside and an Easter Egg hunt outside weather permitting.  What are your traditions for Easter?   

    I shared this card on last week's Facebook Live when I did Paper Strips Techniques. You can see it here.  

    On this card I adhered strips or punched circles to our Acetate and then used the Oval Dies to cut them out.  I had to run it through multiple times as our acetate is very thick. But it die work!

  • A beautiful scene with the ‘Here’s to You’ kit; a Paper Pumpkin alternate idea


    The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene.  It's one of my favorite techniques! 

    One of the stencils has clouds in it.  I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS. 

    Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge.  Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink.  I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!  

    The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.

  • Snailed It; fun, colorful & adorable


    This is another card we made at my March Card Clubs.  I featured the Snailed It Bundle seen here.  

    This cute designer paper is retiring and not returning in the new Annual Catalog in May. It is full of bright colors and adorable patterns.   I used the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch seen here. 

    That cute envelope comes in the set of Snail dies. And quite a few of these dies coordinate with the Snail Mail designer paper too! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base (Daffodil or Bermuda Bay) 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
      Real Red 3 1/2" X 10 1/2" scored at 4 3/4"
      Whisper White 3 3/4" X 5"
      Scraps of Snail Mail DSP and White for punches & die-cuts 
      Bermuda Bay scrap for die-cut envelope

    Here's the video; watch to catch the many tips and tricks on this card.
