Friendly Hello Fun Fold Card

 Friendly Hello Fun Fold Card

I had so much fun making this card! It looks difficult but it's so easy!! I saw this fun fold on Pinterest and I just had to make it!

This fun fold is called a "Double Dutch Door Card".


Directions:

Cut a piece of Pool Party Card Stock to 4 7/16" x 10". Score this piece at 6".

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 4 1/4" x 3 3/4" and attach to the top flap.

Cut a piece of the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper to      4 1/8" x 3 5/8" and attach to the Basic White C/S layer on the top flap. 

Cut another piece of Pool Party C/S to 2" x 9". Score at 2 1/4" on each end. This creates the bottom door flaps. This piece will be glued to the back of the card at the very bottom, with the flaps at the front.

Cut 2 pieces of Basic White C/S to 1 3/4" x 2" and attach to the bottom flaps.

Cut 2 pieces of the DSP to 1 5/8" x 1 7/8" and attach to the Basic White C/S on the 2 flaps.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" and a piece of the DSP to 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" and attach together. 

Attach this layer to the card on an angle using Dimensionals. I centered the point of the square to line up with the opening of the bottom flaps. **Don't attach any Dimensionals where this square hangs over. You don't want to glue your card closed! 

Die cut a label using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and Basic White C/S. 

Stamp the bird with flowers onto this label using Memento Black Ink.

Colour the bird, flowers and leaves using Stampin' Blends. I used Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam. Add some Wink Of Stella to the bird and flowers. 


Attach some Petal Pink Ribbon behind the label and attach this label to the card front using Dimensionals.

Add a few Genial Gems to finish off the card. 

The Friendly Hello Bundle can be earned for FREE until Feb. 28th, 2022 with our Sale-A-Bration promotion!

Tidings Of Christmas

 Tidings Of Christmas

I wanted to make some quick Christmas cards using the Tidings Of Christmas Designer Series Paper and the beautiful Gold & Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper. 



These cards are all the same layout. Cut 3 strips of the Tidings Of Christmas Designer Series Paper at 3/4" x 5 1/2". Emboss all 3 strips using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. Attach the strips to the Sahara Sand Card Stock base. 

Using the Poinsettia Dies and the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper, die cut 2 medium poinsettias. Attach the flowers together with a Dimensional then attach to the card front using another Dimensional. *Tip- if you are mailing these cards use only 1 Dimensional. 

Attach a Gem or Rhinestone to the flower center.

Stamp the sentiment using Evening Evergreen Ink.

Sending Healing Hugs

 

Sending Healing Hugs

Today my card is a mini slimline card. It measures 6" x 2 7/8". 

I designed this card for the weekly challenge at Freshly Made Sketches! Check them out HERE.




I started with Soft Succulent Card Stock cut to 6" x 5 3/4" and I scored it at 2 7/8" to create my card base.

I stamped a floral image from the Color And Contour Stamp Set repeatedly onto the card front using Soft Succulent Ink.

I added a 6" x 3/4" strip of Evening Evergreen Card Stock across the front of the card and then I wrapped some Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the card and tied a knot on the left hand side.

Die cut a Basic White label using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Stamp the sentiment using Evening Evergreen Ink.

Add a few Genial Gems to the label and some to the flower centres. 

That's it! Pretty simple!

I hope you like todays card!

Happy Stamping and Creating!
