Paper Crafting and Card Making

Four Fold Card from Paper Blooms DSP

by

Nine days left before the end of Sale-A-Bration so if you like this Paper Blooms DSP featured in today’s project you need to place an order soon. Today’s PDF file is using the free Paper Blooms Paper from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. I modified the four fold card from Lyssa. She used a card base made from a 12 x 12 inch sheet of Cardstock and since I was making them for a class I needed to be able to make the card base from 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper. (Note: I apologize my sample used the wrong blossom punch. I accidentally used an older blossom punch instead of the current one but will be using the current blossom punch in the kits for class.)

Sandy Cove Make-n-Takes

I am at Sandy Cove this weekend and I brought everyone a make-n-take to create while they are here this weekend at Craft Around the Clock. They can finish their card anyway they like but I have featured 6 different ways for them to cut their DSP in their kit and thought I would share them on my blog as well. These cards feature the free pack of Flower and Field paper from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Your chance to get this free paper ends on February 28, 2021. Any $50 retail purchase will earn you a level one gift from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. All the cards also feature the Medium Daisy Punch, the Story Label Punch and the Happy Thoughts stamp set.

Each card kit started with:

4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ Basic White card base

4″ X 5 1/4″ piece of DSP

1 Basic White Story label punch piece

2 Medium Daisies punched from Basic White

1 circle punched from So Saffron and embossed with the Tastefull Texture 3D embossing folder.

Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP into strips that measure 1 1/4″ x 5 1/4″. You will have a little leftover DSP when done.
Cut 1 1/2″ off the front of the Basic White Card Base. Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP into strips that measure 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ (Glue to Front) and 1 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ (Glue to inside of the card).

 

Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP in half so that you have two strips that measure 2″ x 5 1/4″. Then cut 2″ off one strip and 2 1/2″ off the other strip. Flip over two pieces of the DSP so that you show both designs.
Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP into 3 strips that measure 1 5/8″ x 4″.

 

Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP on the long side at 4″ creating a 4″ x 4″ square and a strip of 1 1/4″ x 4″ rectangle. Flip one of the pieces over and adhere to your card base.
Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP on the long side at 1 1/4″ to create the rectangle at the bottom that measures 1 1/4″ x 4″. Take the remaining square of DSP and cut off 1/8″ off one side and then turn 90 degrees and cut it into 1 1/4″ strips and adhere as shown.

This weeks PDF File features two more simple card sketches. One features the DSP cut into three sections and the other features the stamp area being cut into three areas. All measurements for both these cards are in the PDF File as well as the materials I used. Just like last weeks cards, don’t think the card can only be made one way. Be adventurous and try this same card sketch with other DSP and stamp sets.

all 3 game on cards

This weeks PDF file gives instructions for two simple cards that could be used with a multitude of stamp sets. I have chosen to feature the Game On stamp set but don’t limit your self to one stamp set when looking at a card sketch. I have drawn the card sketch in the PDF file so that you can envision different colors and stamps, but I also included a picture of the Game On card just in case you wanted to repeat it.
