On the Horizon "Z" Fold

 I made 2 very similar cards yesterday using the New Horizons DSP (which is now gone) and the On the Horizon Bundle (available while supplies last).  I love them both!!  Same easy fold, each with a different look.  They make awesome "guy" cards!

Measurements:  

• Base (Thick White or Old Olive): 1/2 sheet 
• New Horizons DSP (ret): 6x6 sheet
• Basic White: scraps

To Make This Card:

• Score "base" at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".  Crease well into "Z" fold.
• Cut 6x6 DSP piece into 3 pcs 2" x 5 1/4"
• Lay out onto "base" as desired.  For one, I had 3 "panels" in a row, for the other, I laid them out differently.  Two back to back, skip a section, and then the last one on the outside, so the image completes itself when closed.
• Before attaching to card base, stamp "birds" and "grasses". and "trees" as desired.
• Attach "panels" to card base.
• Add "fences", and "pebbles"
• Finish with sentiments in Mossy Meadow.
• Note: the one set of "grasses" with the colored flowers,  is colored with Stampin' Write Markers.  Smaller flowers are added with dots of Marker.

Oceanfront Stamps with Horizon Dies

I can't get enough of this soft color combination with the Oceanfront Stamps! For this sample, I added the "fence" from the Horizon Dies, as well as the "seagulls" from the On the Horizon Stamps.  So easy to make for so many occasions!

Measurements:  

• Crumb Cake: 1/2 sheet, scraps
• Coastal Cabana: 4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5"

To Make This Card:

• Attach Coastal Cabana piece to folded Crumb Cake card base.
• Take the White layer and stamp as follows: stamp the "sky" in stamped off Balmy Blue, line up the "water" underneath and stamp in Coastal Cabana, finish with the "sand" in Crumb Cake ink. Oh, and also add some grains of sand below "beach" in Crumb Cake.
• You can also add "sea grass" in Just Jade and "seagulls" in Basic Gray. Attach this piece to card front, on top of Coastal Cabana.
• Next, cut out the 2-piece "fence" from the Horizon Dies. "Weather" it with the "sand" stamp and Crumb Cake in. 
• Attach "fence" to card front with outside edges matching the cut edges of White layer, as shown.
• Finish with groups of those darling "Pebbles".

Peaceful Sympathy

I also had time to play with the awesome On the Horizon bundle!  I love this Bundle and DSP (not used here)!  I found this peaceful sympathy card to try. I love how it turned out!

Measurements:

• Old Olive: 1/2 sheet, scrap
• Misty Moonlight: 4" x 5 1/4"
• Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5", scraps

To Make This Card:

• Stamp sentiment in Basic Gray onto White layer.  Run this through the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.
• Next, cut the "water" and "fence" from Basic White, and cut "grass" from Old Olive.
• Use a sponge dauber in Misty Moonlight ink to make "lines" across "water".  Finish by filling in white spaces with Blending Brush and Misty Moonlight ink. (you can also reverse this process if desired).
• Temporarily lay this piece about in center of White layer. Mark top edge with pencil, then stamp "grass" in Old Olive.
• Also stamp "grass in Old Olive onto bottom of "water". Attach this piece to card front just below stamped "grass".
• Add "fence" on top of water and over stamped "grass".
• Sponge additional Old Olive color to die cut "grass" using a sponge dauber or Blending Brush.
• Finish with some of those darling,new Pebbles!
