Clean & Simple Arched Bunny Frame

Here is another darling Storybook Friends Clean & Simple card! This one uses a panel from the DSP sheet with the background panels, along with a die cut bunny - from the DSP, and carrot die cut from the die cut sheet! Too Cute! Oh, and don't forget the gorgeous arched frame!!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, scrap
Storybook Moments DSP (N): crumb cake "radish" panel, bunny die cut from DSP, carrots punched out from die sheet
Crumb Cake: 2 1/2" x 3 3/4"

To Make This Card:

Cut panel from DSP sheet with decorative panels. Lay on top of folded White card to determine placement, so you can stamp sentiment of your choice at the bottom, below the panel. Stamp sentiment in Early Espresso or Cumb Cake ink. Then, adhere panel to card front above sentiment, and centered on the card front.
Die cut "arched" frame from Crumb Cake. Also cut center of frame from scrap of white. You really don't need the entire frame, unless you want to cut it for a future project.
Scotch tape White frame from the wrong side. Attach to the center of panel with Dimensionals.
Select tall animal of your choice to fit in frame, and die cut from DSP. There might also be a die cut animal in the sheet of die cuts! Attach to frame with Dimensionals.
Find "carrots" on the die cut sheet. Punch out and add to card as shown.
Finish with scattered Antique Pearls.

I just LOVE this Storybook Moments Suite!! And, in particular the Storybook Friends Bundle and Storybook Moments DSP - with 2 sheets of die cuts! It SO reminds me of Peter Cottontail! Just adorable.

To Make This Card:

Cut Coral Plaid DSP at 3 3/8". Adhere to top (near fold) folded Crumb Cake Card base, with plaid face up. Flip remaining piece over, so Wild Wheat check is face up. Overlap slightly over plaid piece. Adhere, and then trim off bottom. (I used the remaining to cut a 1/2" piece for the inside).

Select a "cottage" image from DSP to fit in the frame opening. Hand cut to 1 3/4" x 2 1/4". Adhere to wrong side of the frame.
Adhere the frame to the card front with Dimensionals.
Next, die cut small, narrow from Stylish Shapes dies. Stamp sentiment of your choice in Early Espresso. Attach to card front as shown.
Lastly, die cut 2 bunnies from the DSP, then adhere to card front with Dimensionals. You may need to move the sentiment so the bunnies fit nicely!
Finish with scattered Antique Pearls.
Attach White layer, and Marbled Layer to folded Real Red card.
Die cut large, decorative circle from White square.
Stamp detailed heart from Heart Shaped stamp set in Real Red ink onto center of circle.

Hearts of Elegance Unique Trifold Card

I spotted a version of this fun fold online, and just loved it! Better yet, I hadn't seen any other samples anywhere. The creator directed us to a video on YouTube, which I viewed, and came up with the original version using the Hearts Of Elegance Bundle in the Online Exclusives. I designed this one for my Stamp Club this month. I had so much fun, I make 2 others!! Which I will share with you later! You need to give this fold a try!

Measurements:

Basic White: 5 1/2" x 6 1/2" (base), 3 1/2" x 10 1/2" (insert),1 3/4" x 3 1/4" (top, front layer), scrap
Melon Mambo: 1 7/8" x 3 3/8"
Marbled Elegance DSP (N) (OE): 2" x 5 1/4", 4" x 5 1/4", 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" (Mambo Marbled); 2" x 5 1/4", 3/4" x 3 1/4", 2 pcs @ 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" (Mambo fleck)
Gold Foil: 2 1/4" square, scrap

To Make This Card:

Score White "base" along 6 1/2" side at 4 1/4". Crease well, and set aside.
Score White "insert" at 2"-3"-5 1/2"-8". Start at the 2" end, and make a "mountain" fold, and another "mountain" fold, and then a "valley" fold, and then another "valley" fold.
Let's create the "base" first. Adhere the largest "marbled" piece to the inside, and the 2" marbled piece to the front.
On the other side of the front flap, adhere the "fleck" piece. This is not complete. Set it aside, for now.
On the insert piece, adhere the Melon Mambo cardstock to the top, front layer.
On the White, front layer, Stamp the detailed heart near the bottom in Melon Mambo ink. Add sentiment of your choice above the stamped heart.
Next, add the 3/4" "fleck" strip to the narrow area
Then add the final "marbled" piece to the insert, skip the next panel, and then add one of the "fleck" pieces. Add the final "fleck" piece to the back side of the final panel.
Die cut the "stitched heart" from the Gold Foil Square, and the small, stitched heart from the Gold Foil scrap. Set aside.
Emboss the detailed heart in VersaMark ink and emboss in gold. Die cut with corresponding die.
Adhere the 2 smaller hearts to the "inside" "fleck" piece, and the larger "heart" to the wrong, outer side.
Now, stamp sentiment in Melon Mambo ink onto "skipped" panel.
Now, we are ready to adhere the insert into the card base.
Place Tear n Tape on the front, narrow panel. Matching the crease with the front cut edge, adhere to the front.
Tri fold the rest of the insert, with the 1" panel extended, exposing the back panel (opposite your stamping). Place Tear n Tape onto this piece.
Flip the card over exposing this piece, and close the card base.
And, Voila! It is done!!
Finish the card with new, scattered brass hearts, and a small gold bow.
