Mother’s Day will be here before you know it, so I thought I’d incorporate a Mother’s Day card and a Birthday card for the special ladies in your life. With last night’s One Sheet Wonder class you can do just that. I also created a bonus card using the left-over strip from the 12 X 12 Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper. The first two cards are beautiful easy fun fold cards to make for any special occasion and the best part, super easy to create.
First, I must apologize for not being live, I thought I was but somehow made it private instead of public. I noticed this towards the beginning but, didn’t know how to change the setting mid-live. So, you do not miss the class, I messed up, but the good news is, I have uploaded the video to my YouTube Channel and it is also below in this blog post.
What I love about this particular fun fold card is that it is super easy to create and you will get 2 of these awesome fun folds from one 12 X 12 sheet of designer series paper. Another thing is you will get plenty of chances to express your love and gratitude for the recipient with all the little added sentiment spaces.
When you first slide up the front of this card you are greeted with a sentiment box. You can either stamp or write a message here. I used the Greetings for All Mix & Match Ephemera pack, which is currently sold out, but expected back in stock the week of April 14. This pack is great to always have on hand for all different occasions.
When you open up the final flap it reveals another couple of sentiment spaces for you to either write or stamp a message. I hand-cut a few of the flowers from another piece of the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper and attached them inside and outside my cards.
The second card is created the exact same way, except this time I made it a birthday card. I used the same ephemera pack for my sentiments.
The sentiments on the inside are different as well. Each of these fun fold cards has the hand-cut flowers to accent the sentiment squares as well as the Starburst Sequins. I like to keep these cards flat as much as possible because of all the layers and folds. These sequins are the perfect accent for these types of folds.
Inside I have another sentiment from the Greetings for All Ephemera pack and left the very inside sentiment box empty, so I can write a message to the recipient.
The final card showcases the last piece of the 12 x 12 strip. This strip was cut up to be 3 pieces that are 1 1/2″ X 4″ and fit perfectly onto the front of a piece of Basic Black cardstock 4″ X 5 1/4″ and then added to a Fresh Freesia card front. Another Greetings for all Ephemera sentiment added to a couple of circle punches and finished off with some more hand-cut flowers and the Starburst Sequins.
This card turned out quite pretty I think, for not knowing how it was going to turn out, I’m pleased with the results. On the inside I added a piece of basic white cardstock and another hand-cut flower in the bottom right-hand corner.
This card would work great with any of the prints in the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper pack, so what are you waiting for? It is time to break out your designer series papers and get started creating these gorgeous multi-fold cards for someone special or a special event.
