Waterfall Card - Coffee with friends

Hey there friends! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

 I hope your day is going well and you are finding some time to be creative.

Today's card is a Waterfall card; you can find a tutorial for making this style card under my tutorial tab. I list the tutorials in alphabetical order so scroll a bit to "W".

I enjoyed making this card! It was fun using up my paper from an Echo Park paper kit and cardstock scraps and  to cut out all the little fall elements. I used dies by Karen Burniston.

I really enjoy making interactive cards and a waterfall card is always a showstopper. Kids love them but this one is for a friend of mine who is a coffee lover.

I can slip a gift card inside for any occasion.

I hope you try this fun fold card. Happy crafting!

 

Summer Lemons - Surprise Pop-Up and Pull Out card

 

Hey there friends! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

 I hope your day is going well and you are finding some time to be creative.

Today's card is a Surprise Pop - Up and Pull Out card; you can find a tutorial for making this style card under my tutorial tab.

I used a paper kit from Echo park for this card. I love how all the papers in the kit coordinate so it take the guess work out of putting together papers which saves so much time. 

If you haven't given this style of fun fold card I try; I hope you do!

Making use of my 6 x 6 paper pads and paper scraps today.

Clip board card - Hugs

 Good Morning! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for visiting. 

Today I made a Clip board card. This is one of my favorite fun fold cards. If you'd like to see a  tutorial on the technique you can find one under my tutorial page.

I wanted to let the background be pretty simple so I used some stamps to stamp a random pattern on the plan cream cardstock.

I also made a version in pink

I then used a hugs die to cut part of the sentiment out a few times and glued them together in black cardstock to add some dimension and then stamped the rest of the sentiment.

Adding the floral embellishments and the butterfly to finish this card.

This is such a cute easy card style. Don't forget to check out the video tutorial on my tutorial tab.

Tri-fold Window card - Sending you hope

 

Good Morning! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for visiting. Today I have a Surprise Window card or sometimes it is called a Tri-fold Window card - fun fold card for you. If you'd like to see a video tutorial on this technique you can find the one I followed to make this card under my tutorial tab.

I have 2 different tutorials for you to follow. Each is slightly different but both a great tutorials!

I thought I would use a tone on tone stamping technique for the background of the blue cardstock and colored pencils for the image inside the in window.

I like that this card style offers a place for a stamped image and then plenty of space for a handwritten message with the blank panel.

I hope you give this card a try. It's something different but doesn't require any special supplies.

Using My Scraps - Happy Hello

  Good Morning! I hope you are well.

Thank you for visiting. 

I have been trying to use more of my 6 x 6 paper pads.  With that goal in mind I began looking for various panel dies where I could use my scraps and create a nice card front panel. There are so many companies online that offer panel dies with different cut - out and shapes. I like that the work is done for me; I just have to choose the papers.

Today I kept this card simple and used lots of layers a sentiment panel from a card kit.

Happy Crafting!
