A Legendary Ride Double Fold Card! Video!

 

 

How about a double fold card using the Ready to Ride suite/ Legendary Ride bundle?

I saw a card on a demo Facebook Page that was a double fold that was so pretty. She used Rays of Light and the Mountain Air stamps and dies. I decided I wanted to make one but wanted to make it a little different.

This is what it looks like when opened:

I was selling cards at a Vendor Fair last week and a few people asked me if I had more man cards. I did not. So, on my list of things to do was to make men cards!

I was looking through my stuff deciding what to use. I saw the motorcycle and I was like- “that would be a really cool card!”

The size of this card is 5-1/2″ x 11″. Scored at 4″ and 8-1/4″.

The DSP is 3-3/4″ x 5-3/8″ on the top where the sentiment is.

On the bottom, below the motorcycle, the DSP is 1″ x 5-1/2″.

Inside there are two pieces of DSP- on the top and bottom. Both are 1-5/16″x 5-1/2″.

Here’s my full video:

 

 

I have a short one on Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok!

Have a Zesty Birthday!

I got the Sweet Citrus bundle late in the game. It was on my wanted list, but I kept pushing it back. Then I saw so many cards with it that I absolutely loved, so I had to order.

This card was pretty easy. Using the Stamparatus, I first stamped the inside (or outside- it doesn’t matter which one you stamp first) with Calypso Coral, then used the Stamparatus again to stamp the outside, with Daffodil Delight.

I then put the dies inside the hybrid folder, and lined up my stamped paper to be in the right place. Boom! Makes those grapefruit (on this card- or you could make them lemons or limes) embossed and cut in one shot! I die cut the leaves with Granny Apple Green. There’s a stamp that can be used, too, but I wanted the leaves to be simple.

The background paper is the Dandy Designs DSP- it’s a Sale-a-Bration item! Only 6 more days to get it! It has so many sheets of 12×12 paper- 48 of them! I first die cut with the Stitched with Whimsy to give it a little more texture.

The sentiment was die cut with the Stitched Rectangles.

Look at this Seaside Bay Card! LOTS of Stuff Inside the Card!

 

If you watched my last video, on the pop & twist (fold) cards, this is one of the ones I made!

Here’s the inside:

 

I love that these cards can have lots of embellishments, stamped images, etc!

Here’s my video on how to make these:

You can find the PDF of instructions on the left hand of my site (from a computer) or at the very bottom (on a phone).

Pop & Twist Cards! Two Sizes!

I saw the Pop & Twist (or Pop & Fold) technique years ago, and saw it again recently. I love it!

After making a vertical card, I decided I wanted to make a horizontal one. I had to figure out the dimensions and thought I’d make a video of how to do it!

I show how to do both in this video.

This card shown is just one of the four I show in the video. I’ll share the others soon!

I also did a short video:

I first stamped the Rays of Light on Basic White with So Saffron ink. I stamped the tree branch (from the Perched In a Tree stamp set and Aspen Tree Dies) with Early Espresso. I used one of my water painters to bleed the ink a little.

The leaves is one of the dies from Aspen Tree dies. I used the In Color Glimmer paper.

For the inside, I used the kite die from the Playing in the Rain dies. The letters are from the A la Mode dies.

You are Wonderful with a Lantern!

I still love the SU Lighting the Way bundle. That lantern is fantastic!

I die cut the lantern with the Brushed Metallic paper. I stamped the lightning bugs with Basic Gray and then colored them with Daffodil delight. I stamped the “light” inside the lantern with Crushed Curry and cut it out.

The leaves behind it were stamped with Garden Green, Soft Succulent, and Sea Foam. I then used my Blending Brush with Pool Party to cover the background.

For the sentiment, I colored each word with a different Write Marker: Garden Green, Soft Succulent and Crushed Curry. I stamped each word individually, and then cut them. The sentiment actually says “You are all kinds of wonderful!” I decided just to use “You are wonderful!”

I’m working on a video of a really cool type of card- I hope to be done this weekend. If you subscribe, you’ll get an email when I post something. If you want to subscribe, click on it and then confirm the email they sent you.

A Turtle with a Heart!

 

ETA 2/2/25: The Love for You is no longer available, but I have this bundle for sale on eBay! You can see it here.

We made this card in my classes last week. It was a favorite of many people!

I love that Playing in the Rain can be used for so many types of cards. That cute little turtle is holding a flower, but after stamping and die cutting, you cut a piece of it off and add the heart die from the Love for You Dies.

We colored him just with Mossy Meadow blends.

The “Love You” dies were cut with Basic White and Sweet Sorbet. The heart behind the Love You is from the Country Bouquet Punch with Mossy Meadow paper.

The Split Card Textures dies are one of my favorites. I made the cherry card with it. When I was designing this card, I wanted some thing in the corner/left side. This die with the Country Floral Lane DSP behind it is perfect for a love card!

The stump is from the Playing in the Rain dies. We used Soft Suede cardstock.

Here’s everything we used:

Rain or Shine? Faith over Fear!

 

Playing in the Rain from Stampin’ Up can be used for so many cards!

First, I embossed Smoky Slate cardstock with the Raindrops Embossing Folder. I actually used Versamark on the folder before embossing, to make my rain drops a little shiny. I used the side where the drops are not embossed- not sticking up-the side where they sink a little bit.

I then stamped some clouds (from the Playing in the Rain stamp set) with Smoky ink on Basic White. I used my Blender Pen with Smoky to add some color to the middle.

I die cut the fox from the Rain or Shine DSP.

I wanted a hill or grass for the fox to walk on. One of the dies from Around the Bend worked perfect. I used Mossy Meadow cardstock. I added some Wink of Stella to give it a wet look.

I just couldn’t decided on what sentiment to use. I looked through my stuff and I saw the “Faith over Fear” in the Charming Sentiments. I thought it was perfect- here’s a happy fox in terrible weather!

Golden Cherries! Two Cards and a Video!

When I saw the Share a Milkshake stamp set in the mini, I loved it, but I especially loved the sentiment “You’re the Cherry on Top”. I’ve had the Sweetest Cherries bundle for a while and I always thought it should have the sentiment!

I wanted the cherries to have some shine or sparkle, so I looked through all my stuff and the Gilded Leafing won!

Since the cherries are shiny gold, I decided to put the Distressed Gold paper behind my Split Card Textures die cut.

Here’s another card I made during the video. Just some color change and I added leaves from the punch with Distressed Gold.

Here’s the quick video of me making the pink card:
