What's the name of this fold? I learnt how to do this fold from my upline, Linda Owens. I have searched and searched and can not find the name of it. So, I am having a contest to name this fold! Leave a message below or on my facebook business page, and I will pick the most creative name for the fold and send you a message letting you know that you won. Your prize will be a sample package of DSP, cut 6x6!
On to the projects!
This literally is a small card on top of a card stock base. The base is 5 1/2"x 4 1/4". On this card there is a layer of 5 1/4"x 4" the "small card" measuring at 8 1/2"x 3 1/4", scored at 4 1/4". A layer of dsp cut at 4"x 3", and is then adhered on top of that base. I then tied Braided Linen Trim around the card.
The lovely All my Love DSP is used on the small card. I used the retired stamp set, Bloomin' Love for the design on the base. I then stamped a Stitched Oval with Country Home stamp set. The hearts are from the Retired Mini Treat Bag Thinlits.
I know this is a Valentines Card, (the one I gave to my husband), but I did want to share the technique with you.
This card is also made with the All my Love DSP. I used the Lovely Lipstick Foil sheet to create the heart. After cutting it out I ran it through the Big Shot in the Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and sprinkles a few pearls on for bling! I stamped with the Retired stamp set as above.
Here I have placed the "small card" in the center of the base. I like it, even though it is not a "stand up" card. I have used the Wood Textured and Floral Romance DSP on the base and "small card". I then stamped on a Stitched Circle with the Home to Roost stamp set.
Again I used the Home to Roost stamp set, isn't he darling? I made this card with the base being upright instead of sideways. For the background on the base, I used the retired Ghoulish Grunge stamp set. Floral Romance DSP and Whisper White Flax Ribbon adorn this card. I colored Mr. Rooster with our Stampin' Blends and love the look!
I hope you enjoyed this technique. Don't forget to name this Fun Fold and get a chance to receive the prize of a sample package of 6"x 6" DSP.
Thanks for coming by,
