Christmas Snowflakes Fun Fold

-

 SALE-a-bration is winding down, which means the Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper from the SAB brochure is only available for another week, as long as supplies last. I wanted to showcase one of my favorite papers from that collection AND, at the same time, teach you an easy fun fold. If you missed my Friday Night Video showing how to create this card, you can find it further down in this post.


Measurements (Supplies pictured at the end of the post)

  • Basic Black cardstock (4-1/4" x 11")
  • Basic White cardstock (4" x 4-1/4", scrap that measures at least 2" x 3-1/2")
  • Peaceful Prints DSP (4-1/4" x 4-1/2", 1/2" x 4-1/4")
  • 13" B&W Gingham Ribbon

Directions
  1. Score the Basic Black card base at 5-1/2" and 4-1/2". Fold in half (on the 5-1/2" inch score).
  2. Apply Tear and Tape to the 1" section, one strip on the inside edge of each of the score lines. Remove adhesive backing and fold card in half. You can now open the card by bending and burnishing at the 4-1/2" score mark you made in the last step.
  3. Adhere the large piece of DSP to the front panel of the card.
  4. Tie ribbon in a knot around the bound edge of the card. Trim ends. Adjust as necessary and secure ribbon to card with glue dots.
  5. Add a dimensional to the back of the large snowflake and affix to the center of the DSP panel.
  6. Stamp a sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black on the Basic White scrap and die cut using the appropriate die from Tasteful Labels dies.
  7. Apply sentiment to the card using dimensionals on each end.
  8. Add Red Rhinestones to sentiment label as desired.
  9. Stamp a coordinating inside sentiment on the Basic White layer in Real Red ink.
  10. Adhere thin DSP piece to the bottom of the inside layer and adhere it all to the inside of the card.

It's Always Beach Time!

 It was rainy and cool all day today, but that's not going to dampen my beach vibes! I was inspired by a card done by a German demonstrator named Antje to create this sweet little card featuring the On the Horizon bundle from the Jan-June mini catalog. This bundle will be retiring at the end of June, but since I live in a beach community, I can't see it retiring from my collection any time soon. Measurements (complete supply list at the bottom of this post) Thick Basic White card base (5-1/2" 8-1/2", scored in half at 4-1/") Basic White scrap Old Olive scrap Chipboard or cardstock for template (4-1/2" x 5-1/2") Directions Cut a circle out of the template material where you want the circle to be on your finished project (centered horizontally but more toward the top than bottom). Place the template over the front of the card. Using Crumb Cake ink pad and a blending brush, apply ink to the lower third of the circle window. Using Balmy Blue ink pad and a b...

 It's apple season in Maine. I have to be honest, I don't pick a lot of apples. Or drink a lot of apple cider. But I do love apple cider doughnuts, so that counts, right? Tonight, I featured the More than Autumn bundle, which was also featured in my Sept. 24th Tune in Tuesday class. I love this bundle and think you will also!

Color the cup with Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends. Stamp cup on the circle using Early Espresso ink. Stamp cup again on the scrap of deep red background paper. Fussy cut the cup sleeve. Adhere t...

 It's still summery here in southern Maine, but the nights are getting cooler and it won't be long before the leaves begin changing. Until then, I have a card for you made with the Changing Leaves bundle, an Online Exclusive from Stampin' Up! It's currently on backorder, but should be in the week of September 9th. And in case you missed my Tune in Tuesday class a few days ago, I've linked to it after the link to the replay of my Friday Night Live where I created this card.
