Bella Baby Boy "Funky Fold Card"

Hello everyone and Happy 4th of July to all!!!

Today I wanted to share a Bella Baby Boy Funky Fold Card using the Darling CottageCutz Baby Release. For my card today I used the SWEET CottageCutz Baby Boys Clothes die cut for most of my images on my card. Most are colored with copics, and others are cut out in blue and brown card stock. Next I cut out some of the CottageCutz Diaper Pin Mini's to put along the bottom of my card.

 The FUNKY  FOLD card base has been around for many years, I do have some OLD video's on it, and you can find them HERE.

The design Paper I used is some of my Favorite Baby design Paper.Love the designs on it. However in the photo's its hard to see. I also used some Really Reasonable Ribbon Moss Green Leaves for the sides and the bottom.

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!

Hugs to all,

Cheryl

Funky Fold Santa

Hello everyone, today I wanted to share this Christmas Funky Fold Santa card made for Creative Inspiration Paints & CottageCutz Dies.

First I used CottageCutz Holly Jolly Legs, and then I thought how cute would it be to use the CottageCutz Witch Cake plate, but decorate it up for Christmas :) So I did just that!! I used the CottageCutz Mistletoe & Holly Berry to use on the top of the cake plate :)

For the cupcake tops I used Resplendence Angel Dust, I love this as its super pretty in person and has such a glittery beautiful look. Next for the scalloped border on the bottom of the plate I used Creative Inspirations Deliquesce Super Sparkle Gold.

For the Inside I used the CottageCutz Holly & Berry Border, and thought it would be perfect fit for the inside and it was. I also used more of the Mistletoe & Holly for the front of my card as shown below. I did use some Creative Inspiration Paints on all my pieces, and glitter too!!!

I added some sewing, and there is NO ribbon on this card, Shocking I know....hehehehehe 

On the greenery I used Creative Inspiration Paints Evergreen to highlight and give some shimmer to the leaves, however I had a hard time getting the photo's to show it, but Love the look it gives. On santa's boots I highlighted with CIP's Onyx black, just on the top of the boot,heel, and bottom of the boots. For the white on Santa's pants I used CIP's Carmel to distress the white. 

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!!

Hugs to all,

Cheryl

Z-Fold Video/ & Video on Ribbon Rosette Flowers

Hello everyone and Happy Sunday to all! Cheryl here with my Shabby Chic "Happy Birthday" Z fold card for Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I had a few crafters ask how I made my Z fold card , so I decided to do a video on it, you can view it below :) Hope you enjoy and cant wait to see your Z-Fold Card!!!

Here are the written measurements I usedCard Base1- 12 x 6 piece of card stock(base of card)2 6 x 6 pieces of card stock (for base of card)Card Layers3- 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 pieces of colored card stock(for layering)3- 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 pieces of design paper1 5 x 5 piece of card stock(for smaller front piece) as shown in video1- 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 piece of design paperHidden message pull tab 5 x 5 1/4 in colored card stock4 1/2 x 4 3/4 for white to layer on card stock for pull tab hidden message, you can cut a piece the same size for the back as well, to have more room for writing.2- 6 x 6 pieces of card stock (Base of card)

For my card I used lots of Pink Satin Really Reasonable Ribbon(MY FAV). I also used the pink and white satin with polka dots for the one handmade flower on the front of my card and the inside of my card. I used 3 different widths of Pink Satin and they can be found here.

I love the fold of this card, it gives plenty of room for stamping, and writing. I did make the pocket for the pull card(secret writing), however I didnt make my pull card for this one yet. I did a lot of distressing on the CottageCutz Frames I used. I LOVE these new frame dies, they are sweet.

The Ribbon Flower Rosette was handmade using Really Reasonable Ribbon's Satin and Scor-Tape I will post my video below

I used the spooled Satin from RRR,however you can buy the ribbon in yardsinstead :)

On my card I used the 5/8" Pink Satin, 1/4" Pink Satin, and 3/8" pink satin all found HERE!!

Ribbon Rosette Flowers Video, super easy to make!

Used:

Really Reasonable Ribbon Satin 5/8" inch

Scor-Tape 1/2"

2 circle punches 1" or a little over 

and 3/4"

Bling, or a button, or brad for center

I will have to redo my video for the z-fold, I didnt realize that you cant upload on here that long of a video, so I will have to do a 2 part one :)

Card Open. I also used all unity stamps on my card, Buttons,flowers, and handmade roses. I wanted to run the ribbon through the tea time doily and loved using the 1/4" satin for this. I'm entering my card for the 1st time in Unity's Color challenge here/Pink Green andoff white

Thank you all for looking and have a lovely day!! Hope you enjoyed my video on the Ribbon Flower Rosette's :)

Hugs to all,

"Sweets" Funky Fold & Video

I'm LOVING the new Releases they are sooo SWEET! Its theCarnival Release and all the new die cuts are perfect for cards,layouts, and albums :) I LOVE THEM ALL and so will you :)

Here is a picture of the inside, I added some of the borders fromBoardwalk Canival Silhouette, it reminds me of Santa Cruz California, and I will be heading there this month :) cant wait!! I also used on the inside the cotton candy Cottage Cutz and the tickets from Ticket Booth. I figured you could add your own writing on them :) sweet messages... heheheh

For my Funky Fold card today I used:

Ticket Booth (4 x 6)

Boardwalk Carnival Silhouette(4 x 6)

Popcorn & Cotton Candy (4 x 4)

Pink Peony Flower (4 x 4)

Not your normal ticket booth, but I thought for a little girl this card would be perfect :) The video I have on the #3 peony is done real easy with 2 diecuts pieces,airbrushing,and a pearl and glue. You can use any tool for the folding of the flower, I chose to use the quilling tool.
