Hand Penned Barn Door Card

I saw a card with these flowers in these stunning colors! The flowers are from the Hand Penned Bundle, as is the DSP (no longer available). The card is created with a "Barn Door" opening.  So neat.

Measurements:   

• Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 3" strip
• Mint Macaron: 4" x 5 1/4", 2 5/8" x 4 1/8"
• Hand Penned DSP (ret): 2 1/2" x 4"

To Make This Card:

• Fold White base in half. Then, cut 2 3/4" from top of card. Set this piece aside.
• Adhere DSP piece to front flap.
• Attach Mint Macaron quarter to inside of card.
• Run the smaller Mint Macaron piece through Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. Attach to the White piece you removed from the front of card.
• Stamp 2 "flowers" in Memento Black Ink onto White strip. Cut out with corresponding die.
• Color one "flower" in Pale Papaya Blends and one "flower" with Calypso Coral Blends.  The "leaves" are in Mint Macaron.  Highlight the tips of the flowers with the Color Lifter.
• Adhere one flower to the Mint embossed piece.  Add the other slightly over it with Dimensionals.  
• Attach this piece to card front, as shown.  You will only actually adhere the bottom half.
• Finish with Wink of Stella on the "flowers", and Opal Rounds

Hand-Penned Arrow Fold

I wanted to go back and make another Arrow Fold Card, they are so neat! So, I came up with this one that uses the Hand-Penned DSP (on sale right now) and the coordinating stamps. I'm sharing this a swap for local demonstrators.  Yes, I colored 9 flowers.  I LOVE to color and I LOVE our blends!!  You really do need to try this fold...and use this gorgeous paper and stamp set!!

• Misty Moonlight: 1/2 sheet, 3 1/4" square
• Hand-Penned DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4", 3" square

To Make This Card:

• Fold Misty Moonlight piece in half.  Open flat and score front flap using template above.
• Crease well with bone folder following "valley" and "mountain" fold chart above.
• I, then, used Tear & Tape to old the folds to the back of the card. This is just an option.
• Attach White piece to inside. 
• Take DSP piece.  Place a mark along the bottom edge at 2 5/8". Cut from upper corner to this pencil mark, creating 2 "V"s. Attach pieces to card as shown.
• Stamp large flower to square of White.  Cut out with circle die. Color with Blends as shown.  Attach to scallop Misty Moonlight circle. Then, attach this to the card front with Dimensionals.
• Finish with Wink of Stella on the flowers and Genial Gems (N).
