Fun Fold - Corner Flap Over with Video

Hello my stamping friends. I have a fun fold for you today that I am calling a Corner Flap Over fold. I don't remember who I first saw this from, but it is definitely not my design. I recommend using regular weight card stock for this fold as it gets rather thick in spots. This is one of the cards we did at my class this month.

Measurements:

Basic White: 8¼ x 7

Pebbled Path: 2½ x 2½ *2, 2½ x 1¼

Crumb Cake: 2¼ x 2¼ *2

Silver Foil: 1¾ x 1¾

Scoring the card base:

With 8¼ on top, score at 2¾

With 7 on top, score at 4¼

with 8¼ on top, make a small pencil mark at 5½, turn paper clockwise so that the 7" is across the top. Make a small pencil mark at 1½. Now score diagonally lining up these pencil marks in the scoring track. Make sure that you are scoring through the middle of the other 2 score lines you did.

Please watch my video on how to assemble the card. I would love it if you liked and subscribed to my channel.

Team Swap with the Sept - Dec Mini catalog

Hello my stamping friends. My share for you today is the card I made for our team swap. We do a swap each time we have a new catalog so this card is for the September - December 2023 Mini Catalog. I love participating in swaps as you make a few of the same card and then get the same amount of different cards back. This is a great resource for inspiration. I have the supplies, measurements and instructions listed below for you.

Measurements:

Melon Mambo: 4¼ x 11 scored at 5½, 3¼ x 2

Basic White: 4 x 5¼ * 2, 3 x 1½

Flirty Flamingo: 2¼ x 4¼

Merry Bold & Bright designer paper: 2 x 4, 4 x 1¼, 4 x ¾, 6 x 2½ (flap of envelope)

Instructions: 

1. Emboss one Basic White layer with the Disressed Tile 3D folder and adhere to card base. As an alternate, I cut this layer with the Dots & Spots die instead of embossing it. I like both designs.
2. Adhere the 2 x 4 designer paper to the 2¼ x 4¼ Flirty Flamingo layer and then to card front.
3. Adhere the 4 x 1¼ designer paper across the card front
4. Using the Something Fancy dies, cut both the Melon Mambo and Basic White layers.
5. Stamp the greeting onto the Basic White label with Real Red ink. Adhere to the Melon Mambo label and then to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
6. Add some of the Daffodil Delight Glossy Dots to the card front.
7. Adhere the remaining designer paper strip to 4 x 5¼ inside layer and then to the inside of the card.

Picket Fence with Cheerful Daisies and Darling Details

Hello my stamping friends.  I have a new video tutorial for you today using Cheerful Daisies and Darling Details with a picket fence. I have seen and done the lattice cards, but I drive by a house on my way to work every day that has a white picket fence and beautiful flowers in front of it so that was my inspiration for this card. I demonstrated this card for my teammates at our last meeting and a few of them were looking for the video, which at the time I didn't have and and it was recorded during the meeting.  I love it when someone loves my project and wants to CASE it. What an honor! Below is the original card I did for the team. For this one I only used the flowers and leaves from Cheerful Daisies dies.

Here are the measurements for the card in the video.

Thick Basic White: 4¼ x 11 Scored at 5½

Basic White: 4¼ x ½ *3, 3 x 5 for stamped daisies, 1¼ x 8 for the detail layer of daisies.

Highland Heather: 2 x 4½

Fresh as a Daisy designer paper: 4⅛ x 2⅜

Subtles Highland Heather designer paper: 4⅛ x 3

Soft Sea Foam: 1 x 5

Instructions:

1. Cut 6 ½ inch pieces from the card front so that when you are done you will have 6 strips that measure ½ x 4⅛
2. Emboss the 6 strips you cut from the card front and the additional 3 strips that measure ½ x 4⅛ with the Timber embossing folder.
3. Lightly sponge Gray Granite ink over the embossing to distress the fence a little.
4. With the Take A Banners Pick A Punch, cut the tops of the 6 pickets you cut from the card base.
5. Adhere the designer paper that looks like the sky onto the card front.
6. Line up an uncut wood strip horizontally on your work station. Put a small amount of adhesive on the uncut end of the picket and adhere even with the bottom and left edge. Repeat with another picket an line up with the bottom and right edge. If you are using grid paper to line up the rest of the pickets you would skip 2 squares between each one.
7. Put a little adhesive on the top of each picket, line the bottom edge up with the bottom of the card base and adhere the pickets to card front over your sky paper.
8. Adhere the remaining two horizontal wood pieces, just putting adhesive on the section of the picket that it will adhere to.
9. Adhere the remaining designer paper to the inside, making the left, right and bottom margins equal.
10. On the 3 x 5 Basic White stamp 6 small daisies in Lemon Lolly ink. Cut with coordinating die.
11. Stamp the centers of the daisies with Pebbled Path ink.
12. Cut 6 detail daisy images with the remaining Basic White piece and adhere to top of each yellow daisy.
13. Cut 2 of each of all of the small detail leaves from Darling Details dies.
14. Cut 3 of the tall flower images from Darling Details dies from the Highland Heather piece.
15. Adhere some of the daisies flat and some with Stampin' Dimensionals. Be carful not to use too much glue an stick your card shut. You will just want adhesive where the flower is going to sit on the picket. I used 5 daisies on the card front.
16. With liquid glue tuck the purple flowers and the leaves behind the daisies. 
17. Adhere the remaining daisy to the inside. (I forgot to do this in the video).
