Facebook Live Replay - Hello Friend

 This week I not only used the Opulent Oasis stamp set but also the Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper to make a fabulous Fancy Fold card. I am calling it the Front Flap Tuck Card and here it is.

And here is the inside:

Project Recipe:

STAMP SET: Opulent Oasis

INK: Blackberry Bliss

PAPER: Blackberry Bliss Base, Autumn Opulence DSP, Pecan Pie, Very Vanilla

ACCESSORIES: Stitched so Sweetly (Tag), Seasonal Cheer Embossing Folder-Leaves, Dimensionals, Very Vanilla Dots

CUTTING & SCORING: 

• Blackberry Bliss Base 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" Score at 3"
• Blackberry Bliss Front Layer 2 3/4" x 4"
• Autumn Opulence DSP 2 3/4" x 4", 2 1/2" x 3 3/4", 2" x 2"
• Pecan Pie 2 1/4" x 2 1/4", 4" x 5 1/4" Inside
• Very Vanilla 2 1/2" x 3 3/4" Inside, 1 1/2" x 3" Tag

Helpful Hint: I found when putting a fancy fold card together is to use paper clips to put it all together before I even glue it. That way I if I make a mistake it is easy to fix.

Now it is time for the video so that you can see how I made this really cute card.

I hope that you liked today's card and will want to come back often. Thanks so much!!

Take care,

Cindy
