FB Live Recap: Seas The Day – “W” Fun-Fold Card

 

On my Facebook Live video this week, I showed you how to make a “W” fun-fold card using the Seas The Day Bundle. It’s an easy fun-fold design that can be made with any of your favorite stamp sets. When you open the card, the “W” fold opens to reveal four different panels for stamped images or sentiments. Here’s what the opened card looks like:

Easter Friends – Bunny and Chick Card

 

On my Facebook Live video this week, I used the happy little duck from the Easter Friends stamp set on all of the projects. The stamp set also has a darling bunny and little chick that are also perfect for Easter cards. The Flowering Fields tulip DSP is a perfect springtime background for these images. Here are the directions for a card I made using these stamps.

  • I used Highland Heather for the card base – cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″.
  • Layer onto the left side of the card base a 4 1/8″ x 2 ” piece of Flowering Fields DSP, and a 4 1/8″ x 2 1/4″ piece of coordinating Flowering Fields DSP onto the right side, overlapping the other DSP slightly.
  • Use Soft Suede ink to stamp the bunny image onto a 4″ x 2 1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock. Color with Light and Dark Crumb Cake Blend Stampin’ Blends. Color the nose with a touch of Dark Polished Pink Blends. Crop with the 4th largest Stitched Rectangle die.
  • Layer the stamped piece onto a piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock that has been cropped with the 5th largest Stitched Rectangle die. Attach to the card front with dimensionals.
  • Stamp the chick image with Memento ink onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock. Color with Light and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. Color the beak and feet with Dark Pumpkin Pie Blends. Fussy cut the chick and attach it to the card front with a dimensional.
  • Stamp a small greeting of your choice onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock and crop with a scalloped circle from the Layering Circles dies. (For my sample I used a retired stamp – sorry!) Attach to the card front with a dimensional and add a pastel pearl for a little bling.
  • For the inside, stamp the sentiment of your choice onto a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Basic White cardstock, using Memento ink. I used the sentiment from the Easter Friends stamp set.
  • Use Memento ink to stamp the chick onto the lower-left corner of this piece. Color with Light and Dark Daffodil Delight Blends and Dark Pumpkin Pie Blends. Attach the completed piece to the inside of the card.

 

 

  • Stamp the chick onto the lower-left corner of the envelope with Memento ink and color like you did before.

Last-Minute Valentine Treat Box

 

Here’s a very simple Valentine treat box that’s quick to make. It holds four Hershey’s chocolate hearts.

  • To make the box bottom, you’ll need a piece of cardstock that measures 6 3/4″ x 2 3/4″.
  • Score all four sides at 5/8″. For my sample, I used Blushing Bride. Use a bone folder to crease the score lines.
  • Cut on the score lines up on the long side to the first horizontal score line, forming small tabs on each corner. Repeat on the other side. Refer to the photo below. (Please note that the cardstock in the picture is white, not pink).
  • Place Tear & Tape or glue to the small tabs, fold and form the box.
  • Cut two strips of Sweet Talk DSP at 5 3/8″ x 1/2″ and two strips at 1 3/8″ x 1/2″. Glue the strips to the sides of the box bottom.
  • Place glue dots on the backs of four Hershey chocolate hearts and attach to the inside of the box bottom.

 

 

  • For the top of the box, cut a piece of Window Sheet that measures 6 5/8″ x 2 5/8″.
  • Score all four sides at 5/8″. It may takes several times to score the Window Sheet as it is much thicker than cardstock.
  • Cut out the small corner squares formed by the score lines. Fold on the score lines and burnish with a bone folder. Refer to photo above.
  • Insert the top into the box bottom, with the edges INSIDE the box bottom.
  • Wrap a piece of ribbon around the box and tie into a bow. (I used red ribbon).
  • Use Real Red ink to stamp the greeting onto a 1/2″ strip of Basic White cardstock, trim the ends. If desired, place a tiny heart cropped from Real Red cardstock. I used the Sweet Heart Dies which is bundles with the Sweet Talk stamp set. Attach to the box top with dimensionals.

If desired, you can use coordinating cardstock instead of a window sheet to make the box top – you just won’t be able to see the candy inside. However, there is more space to decorate the top!

Honeybee Home – I’ll BEE Sending You a Card!

 

I was having a lot of fun playing with the Honeybee Home bundle this week. I hope you saw the three cards that I made on my Facebook Live video – if not, you can watch the replay here.

I wanted to share another idea with you that uses the three little bees from this bundle. Paired with the Hive 3D embossing folder and the Daffodil Afternoon DSP, the little bees look like they are ready to fly off the card! I love that this is another great use of the free Designer Series Paper that is available until the end of this month as a Sale-a-bration choice.

The card is easy to make and can be used for any occasion depending on what sentiment you stamp inside.

Here are the directions:

  • The Card Base is a piece of So Saffron cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Layer onto the card base a piece of the Daffodil Delight Designer Series Paper, which is cut at 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″
  • Cut a piece of So Saffron cardstock at 5 3/8″ x 2 1/4″ and emboss it with the Hive 3-D embossing folder. Adhere this to the front of the card in the center.
  • Stamp each of the three bee images onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Memento ink. Color the bee bodies with Dark So Saffron Stampin’ Blends marker. Crop each bee with the smallest die from the Stitched Rectangles Dies. Adhere the bees to the card front with dimensionals. (Refer to photo for placement.)
  • For the inside, cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″. Stamp a sentiment of your choice onto this piece using Memento ink. For my sample, I used one of the sentiments from the Flowing Flowers stamp set. Use Memento ink to stamp the bees onto this piece to the right and left of the sentiment. Refer to photo for placement. Color the bees with Dark So Saffron Stampin’ Blends. Adhere the completed piece to the inside of the card.

 

  • For the envelope, Stamp one of the bees onto the lower-left corner of the envelope and color the body with Dark So Saffron Stampin’ Blends.

 

Here is a list of products I used for this card. The Daffodil Delight Designer Series Paper is a free Sale-a-bration item with a $50 purchase – Sale-a-bration continues through the end of February, so be sure to take advantage of that!
