Paper Crafting and Card Making

Hot Air Balloon Double Column Card

by

This week’s card is a pop up card using the double column technique. I do recommend using a smaller diecut for the window, because the columns are 3/4″ wide and they showed through the window on my sample card. I solved this issue by strategically placing two hot air balloons over the spots where the columns show through. I do not like to waste paper, so I always try to come up with a fix. This allowed me to keep the bigger window so that the inside balloon could be seen.

Fall Book Pop Up Card

by

This week’s card is the final card for tonight’s October zoom card class. It is a card I made back in March of 2021 using the now retired World of Good DSP. Click here to see that older post. Today’s version uses cardstock instead of DSP for the pop up insert and it is decorated with the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper Pack. It is a fun card to make and receive.

You will definitely find it easier to make if you use a Paper Trimmer from Stampin’ Up to make the center cuts for this card. The Paper Trimmer has a nice ruler for the cutting blade to slide on and there are lines on both sides of the cutting blade that help you accurately measure along that ruler.

To make this card you will need to download the pdf file from the first post as well as this post’s pdf file. The first post gives you measurements on how to cut out the pop up insert piece while today’s file gives you the dimensions for decorating the pop up insert with DSP.

As the count down to Christmas draws nearer, many people start making lists. I do offer Stamp with TLC Gift Certificates that you can use on my classes, past card kits, discontinued products listed on my for sale page, and orders for new merchandise. (NOTE: You can’t use the gift certificate to place an online order. I would have to add it to an order that I place for you.) Let your friends and family know if you are interested in a Stamp with TLC Gift Certificate for Christmas and have them email me to work out the details.

November Zoom Card Class

Thursday, November 10, 2022  7 pm

RSVP: October 10, 2022

$22 plus $4 S&H

We will be making 8 cards in this class, two of each of the four designs pictured. The snowman card is an easy shaker card often called a faux shaker card because you don’t need to make a box and it is quite easy to make. The Designer Series will vary for the cards but the DSP used will be from the same pack of DSP but the actual design may vary. I do my best to make sure everyone gets at least one of the DSP choices pictured above.

You need a medium to large sentiment stamp and ink to finish off these cards. All Paper is cut, die cut, scored and ready to assemble during class. (NOTE: you will need your own adhesive, stamps and ink. optional: Stampin’ Dimensionals and silver or white embossing powder)

I will include a white sentiment circle for the Night of Navy card just in case you do not have heat embossing materials.

Here is a quick video of the November Class cards.

Gate Fold Pop Up Square Card

Card open for display.

This week’s card is the final card for my September Zoom card class being held on September 10, 2022. It features more of the Specialty Designer Series Paper from the Texture Chic SDSP pack and the flower from the Chic Dies. This card features a pop up square on the inside. I have made a video which shows how to make pop up piece for any card. There are multiple ways to make pop up cards, but this is a quick easy way to add as simple pop up without any fancy cutting of the card base.
