EXPRESSIONS IN INK HELLO FRIEND POCKET CARD

Isn’t this just beautiful Paper?  I love the way this one came out.  I was able to get two scalloped fronts from one piece of paper for this card.  and you could certainly complete the card with a different backing piece, I do love the result, as it is.  I also think that using some of the basic border dies for edges could give the card different but interesting looks as well

Following are the Measurements and Supplies for today’s Expressions in Ink Friend Card:

  • I used a Thick Basic White Base measuring 8 ½” by 5 ½” , then a piece 3 1/8” by 4 3/8” for the Pocket Insert
  • Next 3 Pieces of the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper, first a piece cut 4” by 5 ¼”, a piece cut 4” by 5 ¼”, and a small hexagon for the decoration on the pocket insert • 1 pieces of Magenta Madness 3 ¼” by 4 ½”
  • Finally one piece of the Polished Pink 3 1/4″ by 4 1/2″ to matt the white insert. 

You can get two scalloped pieces out of the one piece of the DSP that is 4 by 5 1/4.

Scalloped Contours Friendship Masculine Card

Finally a Masculine card.  I really do try to post one a month at least.  These contour dies are really fun to use.  The scalloped die used in conjunction with the stitched frame dies made this card special.  I think the color combination here is striking, and a bit unexpected.  I love the Shimmer Vellum Cardstock and the effect on the leaves for this card.  The second bird is definitely more distinct and I do like it better.  

Following are the Measurements and Supplies for today’s Scalloped Contours Friendship Masculine Card Card.

  • I used a Very Vanilla Base measuring 8 ½” by 5 ½” Scored and folded at 4 ¼” and a piece of scrap for the sentiment
  • Next 2 pieces of Crumb Cake 4’ BY 5 ¼” for layering on the inside and the outside of the card
  • Then ½ sheet of Evening Evergreen to cut the scallop border on the front and the angled piece on the inside
  • I used pieces of the In Color Shimmer Vellum Cardstock in Evening Evergreen and Pale Papaya to cut the leaves
