Fun Fold Panel Card | Pretty Florals
Create this beauty from 8 1/2″ x 11″ cardstock. No specialty dies needed and best of all, it’s absolutely gorgeous! While it might fit into a standard size A2 envelope, depending on the layering you create, you may need additional postage. But it’s so worth it!
I chose the Floral Charm Designer Paper for this first card. With double-sided options you don’t have to worry about the papers matching. The coordination with Stampin’ Up! color coordination makes card making and scrapbooking easy!
This birthday card definitely has a feminine flair with the Pretty Florals Dies flowers, greenery and leaves. The sprigs and leaves were die cut using designer paper. The flower was created using Petal Pink cardstock and a few simple coloring techniques with a Blending Brush and Sponge Dauber. Don’t miss the video for some great tips.
One of the things I hear most often is “does the card stand up on its own”. And the answer is YES! The multi-faceted view of this open card is stunning!
Fun Fold Panel Card | Turtle-y Awesome
The Turtle-y Awesome Bundle (stamps + coordinating dies) are great for any age. These whimsical images can make everything from birthday cards, get well cards, thinking of you and more.
Pair this Bundle with the Turtle-y Cute double-sided designer series paper and embossing folder and your creation is perfectly coordinated.
Unlike the first card, the center panel uses the Turtle Textures 3D Embossing Folder. The texture creates the illusion of pattern paper while adding depth and texture to the card.
Mix and match patterns – and directions – for visual interest. I opted for just one white panel to write and sign but you could easily add more. This is a fantastic handmade card when you need lots of signatures.
Petals of Beauty
That Brushed With Beauty paper is so romantic, with its soft pinks, yellows, and greens. I went with neutral card stock so the paper really pops!
The combination of different patterns within the package simplifies the card making process. I decided to use stripes and subdued colors for the inside view of this card.
Designer papers often feature a color variation called “color bleeding”. This creates a range of lighter and darker shades from a single base color. If your ink pad produces too intense a color, you can reduce it by stamping onto scrap paper before applying it to the cardstock. This will help the colors coordinate better with your designer paper.
With paper this pretty you don’t need embellishments. But if you’re like me and find it hard to pass them up, consider the coordinating Pearls of Beauty. With three colors to choose from, the only problem you’ll have is deciding which ones you want to add!
