Welcome

This card is my own design created using a standard card base of 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches scored at 4-1/4″ with a left side fold.

The first layer is the front of the white card base which has been embossed with the Cane Weave Embossing folder then lightly colored with a sponge dauber. The second layer uses a frame cut from rectangle dies which is then embossed with the Cane Weave Embossing folder that has been fully colored with the matching ink. The butterflies were made using the Brilliant Wings Dies set listed below.

This delightful Z-fold card is my own design and uses a 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ card base and a piece of 5-1/4″ x 11-3/4″ designer series paper which is scored at 1-3/4″, 5-3/4″ and 8-3/4″. The 4″ x 5-1/4″ side is mounted directly on the 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ card base in the matching blue color of the designer series paper and the designer series paper is folded at the score lines as shown in the second image. The 1-3/4″ section on the front flap of the card is glued to the 3 x 5-1/4″ section of the paper to create the Z-Fold.

Two white rectangular shapes are cut with the Rectangle Stitched Dies in the same size, then the corners are punch with the Curvy Corner Trio Punch. The rectangular pieces are glued to the front flap and the inside of the card as shown in the images. The second rectangular piece is directly aligned with the first rectangular piece so it is invisible when the card is closed.

With the exception of the two cards at the left of the image, I generally followed the directions to produce these cards with the exception that I cut the card bases in half and mounted them on white card stock cut 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″.

The two cards at the left of the image are my own design and were made with left over pieces of the kit. The second card from the left uses the Double Oval Punch to create the center focal point.
