My name is Natalie and I love anything to do with card/paper. I have been a papercrafter for many years now and I never get bored playing with all the wonderful products available. I've been married to my wonderful husband Nathan for 35years now and we are still very much in love with each other as the first day we met each other. We have 3 wonderful children and 5 gorgeous grandchildren so we have lots to be thankful for. Since joining Stampin' Up! in 2018 I've grown so much in confidence with myself and I even tackle technology, which for me is a huge step to have taken, but I'm getting there slowly.

Fun fold - Double front fold card using die cuts

 


Hello again everyone, and welcome to yet another craft tuesday. As I said in my blog on saturday I've made another card using the lovely double front fold, but this time instead of using a stampset for the main focal point, I'm using a die cut, and I'm really pleased with how it turned out. So let's begin ...............

Materails needed:

Crumb cake cardstock

1pc - 5 7/8" x 8 1/4" scored on the long side at 4 1/8" for the card base

2pc - 3 1/8" x 3 1/8" for the front and inside square panels


Whisper white cardstock

1pc - 5 3/4" x 8" score on the long side at 4" for the inner card

1pc - 3" x 3" for the inside front square layer

1pc - 1/2" x 3 1/4" for the front of card sentiment banner


Daffodil delight ruched ribbon

Approx 9 1/2" for the front of card side panel


In Good Taste DSP

1pc - 3" x 3" for the front of card square panel


Mossy meadow cardstock

1pc - approx  4" x 4" for the die cut wreath


Old Olive cardstock

1pc - approx 4" x 4" for the die cut wreath


Real red cardstock

Scrap piece to die cut the 2 bow pieces


Daffodile delight cardstock

Scrap piece to die cut 5 x flowers


Meadow moments embossing folders - 153126 

This I used to emboss the front of card side panel (forgot to add it to the product list)


Pearl basics jewels

5 - for the centres of flowers


Card recipe:

1. Cut, score and burnish the crumb cake base card piece and then cut off 2 1/4" from one side. Emboss the side panel section of the card.


2. Cut, score and burnish the whisper white inner card piece.

3. Cut the 2 crumb cake pieces and the whisper white piece for the front of card and the front of inner card square panels. Cut the piece of dsp, glue this flat to one of the crumb cake pieces. Stamp the sentiment from the forever ferns stampset onto the whisper white square and glue this flat now to the other crumb cake square.

4. Glue the sentiment square panel to the front of the whisper white card and then glue this to the back inside of the card base, leaving an even border all around the edges.

5. Using a glue dot for each end of the ribbon glue it to the front of the embossed side panel piece, wrapping it round from the back.


6. Glue flat the remaining square panel with the dsp glued to it so that it meets the ribbon, making sure that it covers the other square panel that sits underneath it ( only put glue on the section that is going to be glued to the front side panel).

7. Die cut all of the elements and glue them together flat, glue the flowers on where needed and place a basic jewel in the middle of each one. The red bow pieces are glued together flat but using a dimensional to glue to the wreath.

8. Stamp your sentiment on the card piece before the ends are punched using the banners pick a punch, and then glue on to the wreath.

9. Place a few dimensionals on to the back of the inner leaves of the wreath and attach this to the front of card.

And that is the card done.........

Hope you enjoyed making it as much as I enjoyed making it for you.

Thankyou for popping on and looking at my blog I really appreciate it, take care, until next time.
