And now for the Fancy Fold Project - Envelope Card
using the Envelope Board - Perfect Day Wedding
Isn't this a pretty card?!! It just turned out so pretty!!
Fancy Project – Envelope Card using Envelope Board –
Perfect Day Wedding
Stamp Sets: Your Perfect Day (Occasions Catty)
Ink: Baked Brown Sugar, Rose Red,
Wild Wasabi
Paper: Blushing Bride 7 ½ x 7 ½, Very
Vanilla 4 x 5, Belly Band using Blushing Bride 2 x 11
(score at 3 5/8 & 8)
Accessories: Pearl
Jewels, Circle Framelits, Lovely Lace Embossing Folder
Here is the inside of the card when you remove the belly band! Isn't this just beautiful?!!
Here are the detailed instructions:
Using the Envelope Board, place
your 7 ½ x 7 ½ piece of Blushing Bride cardstock – line up at the 3 3/8 mark
and punch and using the scoring line, score to the punch (using a smooth
scoring pressure) now turn the cardstock to the other end and this time line up
your previous score mark with the Score Guide on the Envelope Board – punch
again and add another score line using the Envelope Board score line. And again
turn your cardstock to the next side, lining it up again with the previous
score mark with the Score Guide, punch again and score; And one more time
rotate cardstock to the last side, lining up previous score mark, punch and
score. So that when you get done, you
have a score line and punch on all 4 sides of your cardstock.
Taking your paper trimmer, trim
OFF the 2 smaller envelope flaps (save them for the front of the card). Run the 2 small flaps through the Big Shot
using the Lovely Lace Embossing Folder.
Fold the 2 longer flaps IN,
this will form the front of the card. Run your belly flap piece the Big Shot,
BUT only place the center part of the flap in the embossing folder. Fold in the two ends around the embossing
folder so that they do not become embossed.
Taking a piece of sticky tape, overlap the two ends (use your main card
for a guide) and secure.
Decorate the Very Vanilla piece
with your sentiment, adhere inside the main part of the card. Stamp and cut out the circle, and attach it
to the embossed part off your belly band using 3 dimensions attached to the
circle part; one on the left side, one in the middle and one on the right side. Apply 4 Pearl Jewels to the circle wreath to
complete the card.
And there you have it!! The March Class is finished, I have alot of catching up to do and will be working pretty hard to get ready for the two March classes coming up! I am adding a Day Class that will not be a technique class but rather making three lovely cards and a Kit Class where we will order the Stampin' Up! Kits and then get together to make the cards. So stay tuned, I will have those emails out as soon as I can.
Next Technique Class is April 13 and April 15 - The technique will e Easy Texture Embossing Folder Stamping!! You will want to see this very easy technique, and always know that my classes are available as a kit and can be ordered from me.
Take care, Happy Stamping!!
Cindy
