(New Post) Fun Fold!

 Fun Fold Card

The Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper is so colourful that it can stand alone all by itself! I only added a few embellishments to finish off the card.


This card is also a simple fun fold and it has lots of room to write a message for the recipient. 


Directions For Fold:

Cut the Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper to 10 1/2" x 5 1/2". Be mindful of the pattern direction when cutting your DSP.


Score at 4 1/4", 5 1/4" and 6 1/4". 


Fold and burnish with the center fold (spine) inside. 



Turn over and add Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue to the inside of the spine and glue closed. 


Inside of the card with the spine glued closed. (I used a different piece of DSP for these photos)
  

Card Inside:                                                                                    
 Cut 2 pieces of Basic White Card Stock to 3 7/8" x 4 7/8". 

On both pieces of the Basic White C/S, stamp a flower. The flower outline is stamped in Melon Mambo Ink full strength and the inside of the flower is stamped in second generation Melon Mambo Ink. (Stamped off 1x on scrap paper for a lighter look). I stamped one flower on the top and one flower on the bottom of the second Basic White C/S inside pieces. 


Attach these layers to Pretty Peacock C/S cut to 4" x 5" and attach to the card insides. One is glued to the "spine" and the second one is lined up with the first one and glued to the inside back. *Tip: for the layer attached to the spine, only add glue to the left side of the layer. 


Card Front:

Using the Bough Punch and the Soft Shimmer 12 x 12 Specialty Paper, punch out some leaves. I used the Berry Burst and Pretty Peacock Shimmer Paper. Set aside. I punched out 1 big and 1 little bough from each color. 

On a scrap piece of Basic White C/S stamp the sentiment using Pretty Peacock Ink. Angle cut one end. I used the  sentiment "Sending You Sunny Thoughts" from the Trucking Along Stamp Set. What a great sentiment! Anyone could benefit from sunny thoughts!!

Die cut a decorative border strip from the Darling Details Dies using Berry Burst Shimmer paper. Attach it to the sentiment strip on the bottom then attach the sentiment to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Using Glue Dots or Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue, attach the punched out leaves, tucking them slightly under the sentiment. 

Add a double Lemon Lime Twist bow to the left side of the sentiment.

Finish the card off with a sprinkling of Adhesive Backed Sequins. 

 

The card back is just as beautiful as the front! Look at the dimension! It really is paper! The Stampin' Up! artist hit this one out of the park!


Don't forget to decorate the envelope too! 

I hope you have enjoyed todays card and get some time to be creative today.

(New Post) Azure Afternoon Happy Birthday

 Azure Afternoon Happy Birthday

Have you seen the gorgeous Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! The colours in this DSP are so vibrant and the images are stunning!


At the end of todays post is a great photo of my 4 legged assistant Lola!

I have been designing so many cards lately using these beautiful papers! Here is one of them.


I also used the Darling Details Bundle to create this card. The frames and flowers are so delicate and add just the right amount of details. 


Directions:

Cut a piece of Azure Afternoon Card Stock to 5" x 9" and score at 5". The shorter side is the card front.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 3 7/8" x 4 7/8" and a piece of the Masterfully Made DSP to 3 3/4" x 4 3/4". Layer these two pieces together and attach to the card front using Dimensionals.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 2 3/4" x 4" and then die cut the smaller frame. Trim it down, I also trimmed the corners at an angle to match the frame.

Attach the frame to the card front.

Die cut 3 Basic White C/S flowers and 2 Azure Afternoon C/S flowers. Set aside one of the Basic White C/S flowers for the inside of the card. Use a few dots of Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue on the flower stems and tuck them under the frame edges in opposite corners. 


Cut a piece of Azure Afternoon Ribbon from the Sheer Ribbon Combo. Loop the ribbon back and forth a few times and attach using Glue Dots.

On a scrap piece of Basic White C/S, stamp the sentiment using Berry Burst Ink. Angle cut one end then attach using Dimensionals overtop of the ribbon.

Add some Adhesive Backed Sequins to the card front.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 5" x 1" and die cut the decorative edge. You might have to trim it down a little. Close the card, add some tiny dots of Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue to the strip and line it up with the closed right edge of the card front, glueing it onto the inside of the card. * See photo below for placement.

I also trimmed down the right edge of the card after I added the Basic White C/S stip. I wanted a thin edge of the Azure Afternoon C/S showing past the decorative edge. 


Attach the third Basic White C/S flower to the inside of the card using tiny dots of Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. 

I hope you have enjoyed todays card and get a chance to create some of your own projects today!
