Stamping Inkspirations April Blog Hop Fun Fold Time

Welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations April Blog Hop as we month explore the wonderful world of "Fun Folds". Our talented Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas to help inspire to try creating your own beautiful projects and step outside your comfort zone.

Today I wanted to showcase the beautiful Awash In Beauty Designer Series Paper, which is sadly retiring. I chose to create a simple Accordion Fun Fold that I saw on fellow Demonstrator, Tami White's blog. The wonderful thing about this fun fold is that it allows you to see both sides of the designer series paper for an extra Wow factor. I paired it with several retiring die sets, including the Brilliant Wings Dies, which as the most beautiful detailed butterfly die cuts that are wonderful focal designs.

This pretty Accordion Fun Fold is simple to create and so much fun to decorate. After scoring the designer series paper layer and folding on the score lines, I attached the back panel to the Balmy Blue card base to create the basic card design. For the inside insert, I stamped the sentiment with Calypso Coral Classic ink onto the Basic White layer and attached it to the Balmy Blue cardstock layer. I then attached this to the inside back panel of the designer series paper. To decorate the front panel, I added a Calypso Coral cardstock scalloped border to the inside edge of the front panel so that the stitched line is visible on the inside front layer and scalloped edge is even and straight when viewing from the front of the card. I attached the Swirled Circle to the front folded flap with Stampin' Dimensionals and then added the Gold Metallic circle to the center. For the detailed butterfly, I attached it to the center of the Gold circle with Mini Glue Dots and added Basic Rhinestones to the center of the butterfly for a touch of bling. This is a great way to display both sides of your designer series paper to create a beautiful card design.

Colour Combo December Blog Hop

It's time to hop along with the Colour Combo December Blog Hop and for our last hop of the year, our color challenge is Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo and Coastal Cabana. Join our talented Design Team members as they share their projects and ideas to help inspire you to explore this beautiful color combination.

For my card design this month, I decided to keep it clean and simple. I love how these colors work together and I wanted to let them shine through with just a touch of Gold embossing to step it up. For this card, I chose two stamp sets that work really well together and are hidden gems in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. For the background shapes, I used the Watercolor Shapes stamp set and I used images from the Graceful Tiles stamp set to decorate the shapes. This card design would work well for so many occasions and you could experiment with different color combinations to personalize your cards.

Products Used:

Graceful Tiles stamp set (item #159390)

Watercolor Shapes stamp set (item #156968)

Coastal Cabana Cardstock (item #131297)

Basic White Cardstock (item #159276)

Thick Basic White Cardstock (item #159229)

Coastal Cabana Classic Ink Pad (item #147097)

Flirty Flamingo Classic Ink Pad (item #147052)

Metallics Embossing Powders (item #155555)

Basic Rhinestone Jewels (item #144220)

Stampin' Dimensionals (item #104430)

Measurements:

Thick Basic White Cardstock

Card Base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (Scored at 4 1/4")

Basic White Cardstock

Card Front - 5" x 3 3/4"

Coastal Cabana Cardstock

Layer 1 - 5 1/4" x 4"

This card design is so simple to create and requires just a few supplies. I chose to use Thick Basic White cardstock for the card base to help make the focal layer pop. The layer of Coastal Cabana cardstock adds a nice frame around the card front and helps step up the design. The Gold embossed images on top of the stamped background shapes adds a simple elegance to the card and I love how the sentiment ties in with the rest of the design. To finish off the card, I added some Basic Rhinestones to add a touch of bling. The simplicity of this card design is so beautiful and I look forward to trying this layout with other color combinations.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design will inspire you to explore this wonderful color combination when creating your own beautiful projects. As you can see from my design, it doesn't have to be fancy with lots of layers. Sometimes it's all about keeping it clean and simple.
