Flip and Folded Case

I am heading away for the weekend so wanted to post before I go. This is a fancy fold project I had fun making recently.
I found the directions while on holidays, thanks to Beth Beard for her great you tube clip with instructions.
I do love the Modern Medley DSP so found it quite striking to use. This design is quite quick to make, and the best thing is that when you cut the piece of 12x12 DSP to make your card, you automatically have 2 card bases ready to go. My upline and friend Joanne Travis taught me very early on that if you are going to make a card you should always make 2 at the same time. It takes no more time (in fact it saves time) and means that you are more likely to end up having cards on hand after the family raid your stores for their friends!! She was right and I have been glad of her wisdom more than once.
The first sample uses Rich Razzleberry and Very Vanilla, and the very adaptable Bloomin' Marvellous set (an oldie but a goodie!)



The second sample uses Blushing Bride, some white embossing powder and the Dazzling Diamonds glitter applied all over the Hearts Embosslits with Heat and Stick Powder. I don't think my photo shows these very well but they are quite sparkly. I have also died some of the ribbon roses with a touch of Blushing Bride ink using the markers.(so sad these are not still available ) Summer Silhouettes and Chalk Talk were the stamp sets used.




thanks for looking, Cheers, Liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
