DAINTY DELIGHT/LASTING JOY GATE FOLD POP UP CARD!

 Hi, Friends,

The card I am sharing to day is from our June Play Day.  It is a fun fold that I found the diagram from Nancy Thompson, createwithnancy.com, post dated February 22, 2023.  I did change the size of the center front panel a tiny bit, but you can easily change that up a bit to fit the image you are using.  We used the Dainty Delight stamp set for our flower image and the Lasting Joy stamp set for our sentiment.  Here is a picture of our card:

MY RECIPE:

     STAMPS:  Dainty Delight, Lasting Joy

     CARDSTOCK:  

          Crumb Cake:  5-1/2 x 8 (follow score and cut directions on diagram from Nancy Thompson, 

          Createwithnancy.com, post dated February 22, 2023)

          SIDE PANELS:

               Pretty Peacock:  1-7/8 x 5-3/8 (4)

               Delightfully Eclectic DSP:  1–3/4 x 5-1/4 (4)

          CENTER TOP AND BOTTOM PANELS:

               Pretty Peacock:  1-1/8 x 1-7/8 (8)

               Delightfully Eclectic DSP:  1 x 1-3/4 (8)

          CENTER PANEL:

               FRONT:  

                    Pretty Peacock:  2-7/8 x 2-7/8

                    Basic White:  2-3/4 x 2-3/4

               BACK:

                    Basic White:  1-7/8 x 2-3/4

This is what the back of the card looks like.  The Basic White panel in the center gives you a space to sign your name and write a very brief message.

HOW I MADE IT:

1.  Adhere patterned paper to Pretty Peacock Cardstock side panels.  Adhere side panels to front and back of card base.  Use sample to help with placement of panels.

2.  Adhere patterned paper to Pretty Peacock Cardstock (center top and bottom panels).  Adhere to top and bottom panels.  Use sample to help with placement of panels.

3.  Adhere smaller Basic White Cardstock to center panel on back of card base (This panel is to write message in and sign your name.)

4.  Use Night of Navy ink to stamp flower image on left side of Basic White front panel.  Color using markers.

5.  Adhere stamped panel to Pretty Peacock Cardstock.

6.  Place adhesive of your choice on center panel of card base.  While centering the stamped image on the card base, lay the stamped panel on top of the adhesive.

7.  Stamp sentiment on scrap of Basic White Cardstock.  Cut out using die and SU Die Cut Machine.  Attach sentiment panel to lower right corner of front center stamped panel using dimensionals.

8.  Add rhinestones (see sample for placement(.

Thanks for stopping by to see our project today!  Hope you have an awesome day with lots of time for crafting!

Happy stamping,

JUST MY TYPE JUNE 2023 PLAY DAY!

 Hi, Friends,

I have a cute card project using the Just My Type stamp set today.  We made it at June 2023 Play Day.  I love how whimsical the stamps from this set are, and it combines nicely with the paper from Delightfully Eclectic DSP!

One quick tip:  when you are stamping something like this focal image with flowers and sentiment, add both stamps to the same block.  That way, they are lined up perfectly and are much easier to stamp than if you try to line up two separate stamps!

MY RECIPE:

     STAMPS:  Just My Type

     CARDSTOCK:

          Night of Navy 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored at 4-1/4

          Bubble Bath 4 x 5-1/4

          Delightfully Eclectic DSP 3-7/8 x 3-7/8

          Delightfully Eclectic DSP 1-1/2 x 3-7/8

          SCRAPS:  Basic White

          INSIDE:

               Bubble Bath 3-3/4 x 5

               Basic White 3-5/8 x 4-7/8

     INK:  Night of Navy

     BLENDS:  Misty Moonlight (L), Daffodil Delight (D), Bubble Bath (D), Fresh Freesia (L)

     DIES:  Stylish Shapes Dies

     MISCELLANEOUS:  SU Die Cut Machine, Night of Navy Bordered Ribbon, Dimensionals, Rhinestones

HOW WE MADE IT:

1.  Use Night of Navy ink to stamp signature stamp on back of card base.

2.  Stamp rainbow on lower right corner of inside panel using Night of Navy ink.  Color using markers.

3.  Adhere inside panels together; adhere to inside of card base.

4.  Adhere patterned paper to top of Bubble Gum Cardstock; adhere striped paper to bottom of Bubble Bath Cardstock.

5.  Tie ribbon around seam of patterned paper.

6.  Adhere panel to front of card base.

7.  Use Night of Navy ink to stamp focal image on scrap of Basic White Cardstock.  Cut out using die and SU Die Cut Machine.  Color flowers and leaves using markers.

8.  Attach flower image to front of card base using dimensionals.

9.  Add rhinestones (see sample for placement).

On the inside, we stamped the rainbow and colored it in using markers.

Thanks so much for stopping in today!  I hope you liked today’s project!
