Folding Cards

Tasteful Touches meets Flowers For Every Season

August 25, 2020

Today I'm sharing a Quick & Cute (QC) card using one of my favorite patterns from the Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper.

As you can see, I paired it with the Tasteful Touches Bundle. It nicely complements the flowers in the paper.

It also features an easy Fun Fold that was shared at one our DOstamperSTARS Monthly Zoom Meeting. It was for a mystery stamping challenge organized by one of my team members, Cathy Peck. Lots of fun!

How'd She DO That? Fun Fold Flower card

Paper:
- Misty Moonlight (5-1/2" x 8-1/2" card base - score at 2-3/4" & 7")

Stamping with the STARS #344: Gilded Autumn W Fold Card

August 08, 2020

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts344. This week we're sharing Fun Fold inspiration.

If you're like most papercrafters, you probably like Fun Fold cards. However, sometimes the first look at a fun fold might have you saying, "no way". I get it - that happens with me too. Today's W Fun Fold has been on my list to make for quite some time and today is the day!

With the Gilded Autumn Suite of products, it came together surprisingly quick. Take a look...

How'd She DO That? Gilded Autumn W Fun Fold card

Stamps: Beautiful Autumn Bundle & Save 10% with Autumn Punch Pack
Paper:
- Crumb Cake (11" x 4-1/4" card base,)
- Cajun Craze (1" x 11" score at 2-3/4" x 5-1/2" & 8-1/4", 1" x 5" for Banners Pick a Punch)
- Very Vanilla (scrap for large Tasteful Labels Die)
- Mint Macaron (four of 1-7/8" squares)
- Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper (4" x 3", four of 1-3/4" squares)
- Brushed Metallic (scraps for Autumn Punch Pack)
Ink: Early Espresso, Cajun Craze
Other: Tasteful Labels Die, Autumn Punch Pack, Banners Pick a Punch, Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack, Stampin' Seal, Glue Dots, Tear & Tape Adhesive & Stampin' Dimensionals

DOstamping Tips:

Assemble DSP & Cajun Craze squares and adhere to Cajun Craze scored strip.
Add a piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive to each end of the strip. Fold strip in half and adhere one end down to inside card base. Then fold card base over the strip to adhere the other end down.

Lastly, finish off with a variety of Autumn Punch Pack shapes cut from the Brushed Metallic cardstock.
Tip for acorn: Punch one from BOTH the darkest and lightest metallic cardstock. Trim off the top of the acorn from the dark one and adhere to light one with a glue dot.

The W Fun Fold card was exactly that...FUN!

Be sure to check out the Gilded Autumn Suite filled with products perfect for the upcoming season. Add it to your shopping cart today!

Your Creative Connection #YCC112: Peony Garden Fun Fold

July 22, 2020

Welcome to another Your Creative Connection tour, #YCC112. Our theme today is: Return to the Fold

If you're anything like me, you might have a love affair with Fun Fold cards! I prefer the less intricate ones, like this Middle Panel Fun Fold card.

This fun fold card style has been making the rounds for awhile now and I've been waiting to make. So today's the day! I got out the Peony Garden Suite and got to playing around.

How'd She DO That? Peony Garden Middle Panel Fun Fold Card

Stamps: Prized Peony(Bundle & SAVE 10% with Peony Dies)
Paper:
- Petal Pink (5-1/4" x 5-1/2" card base, 4" x 4", 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" for die cutting)
- Whisper White (4-1/4" x 5-1/2", 3" x 3-3/4")
- Gray Granite (scraps for leaf die cuts)
- Peony Garden Designer Series Paper (two of 1" x 4")
Ink: Gray Granite, Petal Pink
Other: Sponge Daubers, Peony Dies, Gray Granite 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon, Elegant Faceted Gems, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin' Seal,

DOstamping Tips:

Score 5-1/4" x 5-1/2" card base at 4-1/4" along the 5-1/2" side (when folded it should measure 4-1/2" x 5-1/2")
Adhere DSP strips to both ends of 4" x 5-1/4" white panel, then adhere to inside of card.
Stamp sentiment in upper left corner of smaller white piece, then adhere to 4" square pink panel. (NOTE: there will be extra space at the top of the pink panel). Adhere the "extra space" area to inside the flap - center and line up bottom to bottom of card. (NOTE: there will be a slight gap between the folded score edge and this panel). Wrap ribbon around the flap and tie in a knot.
Die cut the 5 pieces for the peony flower from 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of pink and 3 leaves from Gray Granite scrap. Add ink to petals with a sponge dauber to give the flower depth. Saving the stamen for last, tuck each flower die cut inside each other, starting with the smallest. Only adhere each piece at the bottom. Optional: use bone flower to curve petals. Add stamen last. Adhere flower & leaves to card front with glue dots.
Optional: decorate inside.

If you love flowers, you'll definitely want to add the Peony Garden Suite to your collection

Your Creative Connection #110: Happiest of Birthdays Easy Fun Fold Card

June 24, 2020

Welcome to another Your Creative Connection tour, #YCC110. Our theme today is: Hey Dude

I chose to use, what I personally think is one of the new must-have stamp sets, Happiest of Birthdays!

How'd She DO That? Masculine Happiest of Birthdays Fun Fold Card

Stamps: Happiest of Birthdays
Paper:
- Whisper White Thick (4-1/4" x 11" card base, score at 2-3/4" & 5-1/2"
- Whisper White (3-1/8" x 4")
- Night of Navy (3-3/8" x 4-1/4")
- Crushed Curry (2-3/8" x 4-1/4"
- Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper (2" x 4")
Ink: Crushed Curry, Night of Navy, Night of Navy Stampin' Blends (Dark)
Other: Playing with Patterns Resin Dots, Stampin' Seal, Stampin' Dimensionals

DOstamping Tips:

Color the Playing with Patterns Resin Dots with Stampin' Blends! I colored one of them with Night of Navy dark for this card. With our Stampin' Blends these resins dots can go with anything!
To assemble this fun fold card: fold bottom half into a Z fold. Only adhere the top of the sentiment piece to the card (with Stampin' Dimensionals). It holds the bottom half in place, until you unfold it to reveal the inside of the card.

I definitely recommend adding the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set to your collection - you'll use it all year long!

Thanks for stopping by. Be sure to check out more creativity at our next stop on Your Creative Connection tour, Barbara Meyer.

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!

Enjoy~Dawn O

Pop of Petals Wreath Panel Card

June 13, 2019

Often I get asked where I get my inspiration from. There are several answers to that question. However for today's Pop of Petals Wreath Panel card, the inspiration came directly from Stampin' Up!.

Four times a year, Stampin' Up! demonstrators receive a Stampin' Success magazine filled with creative and business inspiration. I fold over the corners of the pages that inspire me and CASE those projects for my classes and clubs. Why not, right? I appreciate that Stampin' Up! provides samples for us to copy. Just a little something to make my "job" easier.

Today's card is an example of a Stampin' Success project, that I used for my Stamping Club Class last month. I left most everything the same with the exception of the greeting. Other changes I made, the white piece opens (like a "mini card"), with a 1/4 sheet card base panel. (Yes - I like panel cards!)

How'd She DO That? tips for Pop of Petals Wreath Panel card:

Stamps: Pop of Petals, Itty Bitty Birthdays
Paper:
- Soft Sea Foam (4-1/4 x 5-1/2" card base and 5/8" x 4" sentiment)
- Whisper White (3-1/2" x 5-1/2" score at 4-1/4", and 4-1/2" x 1-1/2" for border punch)
- Petal Pink (scraps for flowers)
Ink: Soft Sea Foam, Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink
Other: 4-Petal Flower Punch, 2-1/4" Circle Punch (for wreath template), Gold Faceted Gems, Linen Thread, Glue Dots, & Stampin' Dimensionals

DOstamping Tips:

On 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Soft Sea Foam - stamp "flower group" with same ink in upper left and lower right corners
Fold 3-1/2" x 8-1/2" Whisper White cardstock in half (to create a mini card)
Creating the stamped wreath:
- Cut a circle template with 2-1/4" Circle Punch.
- Place on front of folded "mini card" and use a pencil to draw around the circle.
- Stamp leaf image around circle with Mossy Meadow ink (the line will be the center of the leaf). Stamp one leaf, then before reinking, stamp again (moving around the circle).
- Repeat until the wreath is complete.
Cut 1-1/2" x 4-1/2" strip of Whisper White with Decorative Ribbon Border Punch and adhere to back of folded white piece. Then adhere stamped mini card to stamped Soft Sea Foam panel.
Stamp greeting on 4" x 5-/8" strip (towards right edge), and adhere over wreath.
Stamp (3) flowers on Petal Pink scrap with Petal Pink ink. Cut out with Four-Petal Flower Punch. Adhere to card with Glue Dots. Attach Gold Faceted Gems to flower centers.
Tie (2) 10" lengths of twine in a bow, adhere with a Glue Dot

I'm lovin' that the Pop of Petals stamp set is for more than just flowers. Anything that can make a wreath, I'm all for!!

When you purchase this stamp set, be sure to add the matching punch to your shopping bag too!

Enjoy~Dawn O
