Gated Fold Card

Yesterday I showed you a card that I received at Convention.  I loved it so much that I created my own version, also using Floral District DSP.  The card yesterday was a 3×3 card but my card is a regular sized one. Actually, since I had never done this particular fold before, I thought it would be easier to try it in the larger size.

Another Convention Swap

Here’s another card I received at Convention.  I love it!  It is a Gated Fold card and it was made by Susan Barron.  I love what she did on the inside as well.  It uses the Floral District DSP.  Tomorrow I will share a card I made using this fold.

Thank you for stopping by!

Convention Swap

My card today is one that I received at Convention from Karen Perry.  I think it is so pretty.  The bottom photo shows what she has on the inside.  When I get the chance, I’d like to recreate this beautiful card using different colors/paper!

Ribbon Card

My card today was inspired by a card I received from Dawn Griffith, my upline, at Convention. She was also a presenter and showed us how to make this card in Salt Lake City.  You can see one of her cards (as well as a video) using this technique, here. If you have scraps of ribbon sitting around, you will want to give this a try or even if you don’t.  I didn’t have a stash of scraps so I just grabbed some ribbon that appealed to me.
Speaking of videos, I’ve been working on making a video. Well, not A video but I’ve been teaching myself the ins and out of making one.  Just trying to figure out how to set up the camera on the tripod and then editing it certainly takes time.  So, one of these days I will present my first of many videos, I hope.

Welcome Flower

It’s funny how a card can come to be.   Yesterday I sat down at my craft table and I wasn’t really sure what I was going to make.  I looked around the table and saw a few bits and pieces from my crafting last week.  Last week I showed you a purse card with a Melon Mambo embossed flower.  I had also tried making one on Daffodil Delight cardstock but I didn’t really like it for the purse card.  I had also tried embossing a piece from the set A Fitting Occasion.  I used white embossing powder on Gumball Green (my new favorite color) but I put it aside because it just didn’t really go with my card.  So I started playing around with these two pieces and Voila!, my card was created. I also used the CUTE new scallop circle punch (#127811).

The Idea Book & Catalog is a great place to go for inspiration.  My original inspiration for the embossed green Modern Label piece came from a picture on page 100 of the catalog.  From there my creativity went forward!  Give it a try, look through the catalog and see where it leads you!
