Let's Make a Card: Best Dressed Suite Fun Fold
April 03, 2020
Last month my STARS team did a fun activity called Let's Make a Card. We sent "card guts" to someone and the recipient had to make a card with only those supplies, but could add one additional item.
My "card guts" were from Connie, which included a piece of Best Dressed Designer Series Paper. She had also pre-cut the Blackberry Bliss card base into a fun fold (see measurements below). Above is what I made with it.
And, this is what she sent me...
My additional item was the new Gilded Gems (from the Ornate Garden Suite).
How'd She DO That? Best Dressed Fun Fold Card
- Stamps/Bundles: Dressed to Impress Bundle (with All Dressed Up Dies)
- Paper:
- Blackberry Bliss (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base, score at 4-1/4". Trim off 1" from each edge of the card front only)
- Whisper White (3-1/4" x 4", scraps for Label Me Lovely Punch & flower die cuts)
- Best Dressed Designer Series Paper (3-1/4" x 4", two of 7/8" x 4", optional: 3/4" strips for inside)
- Ink: Blackberry Bliss, Old Olive
- Other: All Dressed Up Dies, Gilded Gems, Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, SNAIL, Glue Dots & Stampin' Dimensionals
I never made a fun fold card like this, but it was really fun to make! I highly recommend giving it a try.
DOstamping Tips:
- Take a closer look at the flowers, stamped with Blackberry Bliss and blended with the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.
- I added Old Olive to the leaves (with glitter brush).
- And finally the Gilded Gems for bling!
This is the first time I've had a chance to play with the Best Dress Suite and it won't be the last! I also don't think it will be the last time the DOstamperSTARS will be playing "Let's Make a Card"!
With Mother's Day approaching fast, the Best Dressed Suite of products are a perfect choices. Add it to your shopping bag today!
