Looks like I am back on Fridays. Your response to my situation continues to amaze me, thank you.
I think I can keep up my Friday videos until I have the energy to do more. This Card gave me joy I just love this Tidings of Christmas paper, there are many designs that appeal to me in this paper pack. I love the Evening Evergreen Shimmer Vellum, I think the sparkle adds so much.
This paper is so pretty. I thought the message should be very simple, and I love the way it came out.
Here are the measurements and supplies for Today’s Tidings of Christmas Card
I used a Basic White Card Base 8 ½” by 5 ½” , scored and folded at 4 ¼”. Next a piece of Evening Evergreen 4” by 5 ¼”. Then I used a piece of Tidings of Christmas Designer Series paper for the front of the card cut at 3 ¾” by 5”, and 1 piece for the inside cut ½” by 5 ¼”. I used a 3 ¼” by 2 ½” piece of Soft Succulent Shimmer Vellum on the front of the card. I used 1 piece of Soft Succulent cardstock 4” by 5 ¼” for the inside of the card. Lastly, I used Scrap Cherry Cobbler, Evening Evergreen Shimmer Vellum and Evening Evergreen cardstock to cut my leaves.
I think the Pop of red on this card ads just the right amount of detail to catch your eye. I love the finished product.
This post is my first since being back since my husband Barry’s passing. It is for you, I am so grateful for the outpouring of love and support from all of you. It is palpable, I feel it and it is so comforting, thank you! This crafting and card making community is incredible. We are all lucky to belong to such a supportive proactive group of people.
I think this is the first time I am using this beautiful suite, Blackberry Beauty, and what a beauty it is. This card is very simple and the paper is stunning. I think it “carries” the card. The gold accents pick up the foiling in the paper and adds a touch of elegance. I left is plain and simple on purpose, sometimes less is more.
Here are the measurements and supplies for Today’s Forever Grateful Card:
I used a Blackberry Bliss Card Base 8 ½” by 5 ½” , scored and folded at 4 ¼”. Next is a piece of Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series paper for the front of the card cut at 3” by 5 ½”, and 1 piece for the inside cut ½” by 4”. Then i used 2 pieces of Gold Foil paper ½” by 5 ½ ” for the front of the card, 1 piece cut 1” by 2 ¼” to mat the sentiment, and 1 piece 4” by ½” for the inside of the card. Lastly, inside, I used a piece of Very Vanilla 4” by 4 ¾”.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today, love you all!
What a fun card! I have had a great number of people requesting the instructions for making Elizabeth McConner’s cute fund fold butterfly card. Well, here it is! I made my version a Christmas Card. The first view shows the cards standing the second view as folded and ready for an envelope. I decorated all four of the little diamond squares, leaving one of them without the DSP so I could sign the card and add a few words.
This design is so clever, and you can get two cards out of a standard piece of paper. This next view show the front of the card and second view shows the back of the card that I made.
The Inspiration card is by Elizabeth McConner who says she saw the card on Pinterest originally. Elizabeth is a newer member of my team, from Nevada City, California, Great Job Elizabeth!! You can reach Elizabeth at [email protected]
