The images in the Flights of Fancy set are just adorable. I did two fancy fold cards with two of the images. I really enjoy doing fancy folds and I hope you do too!
Little Witch Card
Crushed Curry – one scrap large enough to accommodate a 2” punch
Designer Series Paper (DSP): Plaid Tidings – one piece of the white plaid cut to 2 ¼” x 4”
Place
the 11” x 4 ¼ piece of cardstock where the 4 ¼” side is at the top and the 8 ½”
score line is at the top as well. Slide
the 2” circle punch onto the cardstock about ¼” from the left-hand side and
center the score line at the 8 ½” mark in the punch and punch a circle. Fold
the up the bottom of the card to the 8 ½” score line. With the top portion of the card open, adhere
punched circle to the back of the 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” portion of the card. Punch a 2” circle from the Crushed Curry
Cardstock. Use Stampin’ Sponges to
sponge Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze ink around the outer edge of the
circle. Use the dauber to lightly add
some Cajun Craze on the right side of the circle. Ink the small “sparkle” stamp with Crushed
Curry and stamp on the right side of the circle to mimic craters on the moon. Adhere this piece to the front side of the 4
¼” x 4 ¼” portion of the card base matching it to the Blackberry Bliss Circle (
the top of the 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” layer will be sandwiched between the two circles). Fold the top of the card down over the 4 ¼” x
4 ¼” square potion. Temporarily adhere
the 2 ¼” x 4” piece of Whisper White to the front of the top layer (this is
have half of the punch on the left side).
Open the card and use the 2” punch to punch through the Whisper White
layer. Remove the now punched Whisper
White layer from the card front. Place a
piece of regular tape over the moon on the Witch stamp. Ink the stamp with
Memento Ink and then remove the tape, this will “omit” the half moon on the
Witch image. Stamp the image onto the
Whisper White being careful not to let any portion of the stamp fall into the
punched area. Color the image using the
following Blends: Dark Mango Melody for
the Stars and Moons on her dress and the sparkles on her wand and the vapor
trail of her broom, Light Blackberry Bliss for her hat and dress, Light Granny
Apple Green for her face and hands, Light Smoky Slate for the mouse, Light
Crumb Cake for the straw of the broom and Dark Crumb Cake for the handle of the
broom. Place a rhinestone in the center
of each “sparkle” and use Wink of Stella to accent the stars and moons on her
hat and dress and the vapor trail of her broom. Adhere this layer to the top
front of the card. Use the brayer to
apply Blackberry Bliss ink to the 2 ¼” x 4” piece of black and white Designer Series
Paper. Adhere this piece to the bottom
front of the 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” section of the card base.
Little Angel Card
Designer Series Paper (DSP): Trimming the Town: one piece cut to 4” x 5 ¼” and one cut to 2 ½”x 4”. Sentiments cut from the piece of Designer Series Paper that has all the sentiments and houses cut from the Designer Series Paper that has the small houses. SEE PHOTO FOR PATTERNS USED
Use
Memento ink to stamp the Angel stamp onto one of the 2 ¼” x 4” pieces of
Whisper White Cardstock. Use Stampin’
Blends to color the Angel as follows: Dark So Saffron for her hair, Ivory for
her face, hands and feet, Misty Moonlight for the top of her dress and for the
section of the dress that has the circles, Light Old Olive and Poppy Parade for
the triangle sections. Place Adhesive
Backed Snowflakes over the snowflakes in the image. Cut five small house (see photo for the ones
I used) and adhere over the stamped houses popping one on each side up with
Stampin’ Dimensionals. Fold the 2 ½” x
8” piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock at the 4” score line. Adhere the stamped image to the front of this
piece being sure the fold is on the right-hand side. Open the piece and adhere the other 2 ¼” x 3
¾” piece of cardstock, again being sure the fold is on the right-hand side.
Adhere the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of Designer Series Paper to the card base being sure
the score line is on the left side.
Close the card along the score line and adhere the 2 ½” x 4” piece of
Designer Series Paper. Open the card and
adhere the folded piece of cardstock containing the stamped image to the center
of the section with the 4” x 5 ¼” piece of Designer Series Paper. Be sure the fold is on the right-hand
side. See the photo for placement and
how the card looks when closed. Adhere the selected sentiment to the bottom right hand portion of the card.
I hope you have a wonderful week and look forward to seeing you next week! Remember: Send out the cards you make, I'm sure they will brighten someone's day!
