These are the three fun fold cards I made on facebook live last night. They use the Garden Impressions Suite, which includes the Abstract Impressions stamp set, Springtime Impressions thinlits and Garden Impressions designer series paper. These items will be available from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog starting June 1.
Despite the “sneak peek” nature of these projects, these are cards you can easily make with products you have on hand. Simply pick a pretty designer paper from your stash and use coordinating cardstock.
The first is a double-z fold. The dimensions are as follows:
Soft Seafoam 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 2 1/8″ and 4 1/4″
Blueberry Bushel 1 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 2 1/8″ and 4 1/4″
Designer Paper 4 ” x 5 1/4″ and 1 7/8″ x 5 1/4″
Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″ (optional for back of card)
The flowers and greeting are stamped on Whisper White cut with the largest stitched square framelit. The stamped piece is mounted on a Blueberry Bushel scalloped square.
So Saffron 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
Designer Paper 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Cut a notch in the designer paper on the right side to create the collar fold. Place the top edge of the designer paper at 2 3/4″, and use the trimming blade to cut from 0″ to 1 3/4″.
The greeting is stamped on a Whisper White piece cut with the second-largest stitched circle. The stamped piece is mounted on a Soft Seafoam scalloped circle and a Blueberry Bushel circle.
This ia a CASE of my upline Mindy Gray’s card (shown below). The dimensions are as follows:
Powder Pink 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Shaded Spruce 5 1/4″ x 6 3/4″, scored at 4″
Whisper White 3 3/4″ x 5″
Designer Paper 2 1/2″ x 5″
The greeting is stamped on a Whisper White piece cut with the largest stitched oval and mounted on a Shaded Spruce scalloped oval.
