FUN FOLD: you’re the most awesome

Posted on February 17, 2024February 17, 2024 by Josee

There’s only 13 more days of SALE-A-BRATION! Don’t lose out on getting some amazing products for free! You can choose from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure OR from the More To SaleABrate Flyer.

The fun fold card below features the Trusty Toolbox 12″ x 12″ Designer Paper that you can get for free for the remainder of this month. This paper coordinates with the Trusty Tools bundle that is in the Spring Mini Catalogue.

I got the card design idea from a card I received in a Demonstrator card swap from Jill Olsen. You can see Jill’s card below.

Dimensions

  • Copper Clay: 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 2 3/4″ and 5 1/2″.  3″ x 4 1/4″
  • Crushed Curry: 2 1/2″ x 4″
  • Lost Lagoon: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Designer Paper: 2 3/4″ x 4″

Directions

  1. Cut the Copper Clay cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 11″, then score it at 2 3/4″ and 5 1/2″ Fold as shown above.
  2. Stamp the Crushed Curry cardstock randomly using Crushed Curry ink. Adhere it to the front panel.
  3. Stamp the right-side of the Lost Lagoon cardstock using the coordinating colour. Adhere it to the inside of the card.
  4. Adhere the Designer Paper to the Copper Clay cardstock, then add adhesive to the left-side of the cardstock to add it to the card.
  5. Stamp the greeting on the Basic White cardstock using Copper Clay ink, cut end in a “V”. Add it to the card using Dimensionals.
  6. Add 3 sequins to the card.

FUN FOLD: Sending lots of love

Posted on February 12, 2024February 12, 2024 by Josee

I received this card in a Demonstrator Card Swap (Trade) from Colleen Magness. I love the Fun Fold she created with the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle and the Perennial Lavender Designer Paper.

Dimensions

  • Highland Heather: 5 1/2″ x 6 3/4″, scored at 4 1/4″  and  7/8″ x 4 1/4″
  • Gorgeous Grape: 2 1/4″ x 5 1/4″  and  1″ x 4 1/4″
  • Designer Paper: 2″ x 5″
  • Basic White: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Directions

  1. Adhere the 2 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ Gorgeous Grape cardstock and the 2″ x 5″ Designer Paper to the front of the card.
  2. Place the 7/8″ x 4 1/4″ Highland Heather cardstock in the Embossing Folder and run it through the Cut & Emboss Machine. Adhere this piece to the 1″ x 4 1/4″ Gorgeous Grape piece. Score the pieces at 3 3/4″. Adhere the end of the flap to the inside of the card so that it will tuck in directly behind the Basic White cardstock.
  3. Stamp the flowers on the Basic White cardstock using Highland Heather ink, then adhere it to the card.
  4. Stamp the greeting on a piece of Basic White scrap, then punch it out using the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
  5. Add the greeting to the card using Dimensionals.
  6. Place the gems on the Hexagon.
  7. NOTE: on this card, the flap just lays on top of the front of the card. Optional: You could add a small velcro to each side to keep it closed better.
