How to Make a Birthday Double Z Fold Card

How to Make a Birthday Double Z Fold Card – Bold Bouquet – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln – UK

I love the bright, spring feel of this card. It features Tahitian Tide and Parakeet Party, these colours are retiring at the end of April. I will miss them. This week on my blog I am featuring all the retiring in-colours as a final goodbye.

This double z-fold card is easy to make. I’ve adjusted the measurements slightly so it is slightly smaller than a standard A6 card. This makes the scoring easier. The card below features the third retiring colour, Orchid Oasis.

How to Create Gorgeous Thank You Cards

How to Create Gorgeous Thank You Cards – Painted Lavender – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

I have this elegant floral thank you card to share today. This card features the stunning Painted Lavender stamp set. It is a two-step stamp set which allows you to create these gorgeous flower spikes.

Lavender is such a classic scent and flower. Did you know it is a member of the mint family? It’s been used and cooking and herbalism. I think it’s a beautiful flower to say thank you. Lavender symbolises serenity and elegance, perfect for a card. Do you agree?

Simple Focal Image Design – Thank You Card – Pansy Patch

Simple Focal Image Design – Thank You Card – Pansy Patch – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love the Pansy Patch stamp set. I’ve not used it for a while but I think it deserves to be used again. This design is very simple with a single flower as the focal image. Pansy Patch is a two-step stamp set. This gives the flower detail and dimension. I made this card in two different colour ways. Which do you prefer?

Make a Tri Fold Birthday Card with a Flap Opening

Make a Tri Fold Birthday Card with a Flap Opening – Around The Bend Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I created this decorative flap using the Around the Bend Dies. I used the scallop border die to cut the cardbase itself. Then, I used this decorative border die with Basic White cardstock to create this lacy pattern. I love the effect.

The flowers are fussy cut from the Delightfully Eclectic designer series paper (DSP). I added some gold sequins to give the flower centres some sparkle.

I recently bought a new storage system for my sequins. Of course, I found many more than I thought I had. I need to use them up and the best way to do that is shaker cards.

Keep it Simple – Easy Card Design to Replicate

Keep it Simple – Easy Card Design to Replicate – Go to Greetings – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

This is an easy design to replicate. I’ve cut out three small panels from the Fresh as a Daisy designer series paper (DSP) using the Deckled Rectangle dies. I added a few die cuts from the Around The Bend dies and the card was finished.

All the die cuts were cut from Basic White cardstock. I coloured the two flowers with ink to match the card base which is Moody Mauve in colour.

Another Idea – How to Use Heat Embossing and Ink Blending.

Another Idea – How to Use Heat Embossing and Ink Blending. – Enduring Beauty – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I’ve used this set previously to make a few cards. I decided to step it up with this card and use heat embossing alongside the ink blending. All the stamping is heat embossed with silver embossing powder. It will resist the ink blending, leaving the silver metallic lines.

I’ve coloured this card using the matching stencils. This gives these florals this lovely shading.
