Detail Heart Corner Angle Fold Card

After I made the Blushing Bride Heart Card, I grabbed a few remaining die cuts and Specialty Papers that were around me and designed this card!  This also uses the Many Hearts Dies, the Love You Always Specialty Paper and Foil Paper, and the new Pearlescent Paper.  Also added a Die Cut from the Always Dies.


Measurements:  

  • Sahara Sand: 1/2 Sheet
  • Very Vanilla: 2 pcs - 4" x 5 1/4" (1 is template)
  • Love You Always Specialty DSP (N):3 3/4" x 5", 2 3/4" square
  • Pearlescent Paper (N): 4" x 5 1/4", 3 3/4" square,  2 3/4" square, scrap
  • Love You Always Foil (N) - scrap
To Make This Card: (see video)

  • Begin by making the corner "template". Take one of the Very Vanilla pieces.  Measure along the short side 2 3/4" and place a mark.  Then, measure along the long side to 3 1/2" and make a mark.  Draw a line with a pencil, connecting the 2 marks. Cut along this line.  Save the triangle, and discard the rest of the piece. Use it for another card.
  • Fold card base in half. Place "template" along upper left corner of card. Score along "pencil" line with Bone Folder.  It should lightly transfer to the back side.  Flip card front over and repeat for the back side. Now, carefully fold along score lines, inverting the corner to the inside of card.
  • Take one of the other Very Vanilla pieces, and lay inside the card, leaving an 1/8" border.  Mark the score line and trim this piece.  Trim approx 1/8" from the cut edge.  Check for fit.  Take the small corner you removed, and fit to the upper triangle.
  • To layer the outside.  Repeat with the Pearlescent piece. Using the scored/folded edge as a guide to cut your layer, and then repeating with the DSP layer.  Always allowing for an 1/8" border!!
  • To decorate the front, cut large heart from "scalloped heart" die and Pearlized Paper. Add a layer of DSP cut from the Specialty DSP, and a "detail heart" cut from the Pearlescent Paper.  Add to front of card.
  • Cut "Love" from scrap of Pearlescent Paper, as well as a "shadow" from Sahara Sand Foil.  Adhere to front of card.
  • To decorate the inside, attach the Very Vanilla corner, then layer the Specialty DSP cut from the front layer.
  • Finish with a Very Vanilla bow.
  • Some will also place DSP on the upper, inside flap of card.  Your choice!!

Oval Pierced Blooms

I originally saw this card with the other card that I posted using these colors and dies. It was all white.  I didn't like my version, so I tweaked it, and came up with this GORGEOUS card.  You HAVE to see this one IRL We will be making this one in Stampin' Club this month!

Measurements:  

  • Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 4" x 5 1/4", 2 1/8" x 3 1/4" (oval), scraps
  • Love You Always Specialty Paper (N): 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Love You Always Foil (N): 3 3/8" x 4 1/2"
  • Purple Posy: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4"
  • Pool Party: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4"
  • Soft Sea Foam: 2 3/4" x 4 1/4"
To Make This Card:

  • Fold Vanilla card in half. Attach foil piece in center of card front.
  • Attach Foil Specialty paper to quarter sheet of Very Vanilla with Multipurpose Glue. (I did this because I thought the popped up DSP needed a little more body.  Another option would be to use a Foam Adhesive Sheet.)
  • Cut largest oval from Foil Specialty piece.  Set center aside for another project.  Attach this layer to card with Dimensionals. Centering over Foil piece.
  • Stamp sentiment in Sahara Sand onto piece of Very Vanilla.  Cut out with Oval that is 2 sizes smaller.  Attach to card inside Oval. I attached this flat, but you could pop this up as well.
  • Cut a large and small 5/6 petal flower from Pool Party. Oh, and a small "star" center.  Then, cut a large and small 4 petal flower from Purple Posy.  Then, cut a variety of leaves from Soft Sea Foam.
  • Also, cut flower centers of your choice from Very Vanilla scraps.  Add centers to flowers with Mini Glue Dots. Shape a little with your fingers, if desired.
  • Arrange larger flowers in lower left corner, and smaller flowers in upper corner.  I attached these to the card with a combination of Mini Dimensionals and Mini Glue Dots.
  • Finish with pearls in the center of the flowers.
