Dble Tri-fold




Another FUN card. Decide on the size of card you want. This one is the standard 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". Cut out two card bases and score down the middle like you normally would do. Take one of them and cut a window out 1 1/4" in from all sides. On the second card score down the middle again (for this example, I scored at 4 1/4" and at 2 1/8". On the other end of the same piece, cut a block out measuring 1 1/4" x [one fourth of the card(mine at 2 1/8")]. This created the box to go through the front window. Tape the other end to the inside of the standard folded card base matching the edge to the center fold of the card base. Cut two pieces of DSP to frame the window on the inside and out, six pieces (again, mine were 1 7/8" x 4") to place on the inside panels and decorate as you wish.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Ruffled Scarf


Just thought I would share one of the scarves I made. They are so quick and easy. The hardest part has been finding the yarn! Guess everyone else is creating them also.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

St. Patty


This card is really simple and quick. Punch out four hearts from the Full Heart Punch (119883) from Garden Green cardstock. Using the Big Shot (113439) and the Top Note Die (113463), cut out the Gold cardstock. The card base is also garden green. I then took the piece that I punched the heart from and using the Paper Snips (103579), cut the stem from around one side of the cut out. The sentiment is punched out of the gold cardstock with the Ticket Duo Builder punch (126883). Sponge (101610) around the edges of all the pieces and put it all together.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Hootie


Being an owl collector, you know I had to try this one. It makes me smile everytime I see it, so I have it where I can enjoy it whenever!

The body is created with a 2 3/4" x 8 1/2" cardstock, scored at 4 1/4". Using the 2 1/2" punch (120906), punch out half circles from each end to create the "ears" which are actually tufts.   (I find it easier to fold the scored area of a project before running through an embossing folder.) Run through the Big Shot (113439) with the Fancy Fan Folder (127751) to create the look of feathers. Fold in half and tape together. The chest is 2 3/4" x 2" DSP and partial circles cut out for the wings. Attach to the very bottom of the body. The eyes are created with the 1 1/4" scallop, 1" and 3/4" circle punches (127811, 119868, and 119873). I also used the White Gel pen (105021) to mark small crescents on the eye. The nose/beak is actually the small heart punch (117193) place under the eyes and over the chest.

You can add a mini candy bar as I did, or another small treat in this cute pocket card.

Enjoy and have a great day! We are enjoying some much needed moisture! Thanks for stopping by!

Jar of Love


Here is another Valentine card that I made with some retired products. You know, I have to use them sometimes, too. The sentiment is actually from the Spring catalog, though.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
