This is a great idea to use up those scraps of paper we all have in our stash. These papers all come from the Bloom Impressions designer series paper (DSP) so they match perfectly. This paper is a freebie during sale-a-bration (SAB). For every qualifying purchase, you can choose a free item from the SAB catalogue. This was one of mine. The die-cut sentiment is from the Wanted to Say dies, a firm favourite of mine.

Measurements

  • Thick Basic White Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm.
  • Blooms Impressions DSP – 10 strips each measuring 14.35cm X 1cm.

I love floral cards. This is the Painted Lavender bundle. It evokes the lavender fields of Provence. Unfortunately, I have bad hay fever, so I must admire it from afar. The background felt sparse, so I used the Forever Plaid embossing folder to add texture and interest without detracting from the focal image.

Instead of stamping a sentiment I used one from the Saying Something ephemera pack. You don’t have to handstamp everything on the card, it gives added interest to mix and match, do you agree?

Besides the patterned paper, everything used to make these cards is from the ephemera packs. I love these packs. They are full of lovely images and sentiments both for easy cards and scrapbooking. I am on a mission to use as much up as I can before they retire. I want to add as little to my stash as possible, I would rather use it than hoard it.

I am a fan of big bold sentiments such as this one in the Thank You stamp set. The emboss resist technique is a fabulous one and I would encourage you to have a play with it. I’ve clear heat embossed on white cardstock and ink blended over the top to create this card. A couple of floral pieces from the Fully Flowering ephemera pack finish off the card.

I love floral stamp sets. This is a new one from the current online exclusives. It is a two-stamping set, allowing you to use the second stamp to “colour” the image or colour it with a medium of your choice. There is a matching die set and embossing folder. The embossing folder is one of the newer hybrid folders. This means that the die-cut images match the images in the embossing folder.

I like the combination of blues and reds in this card, although close to each on the colour wheel, they are both primary colours and compliment each other well. Gingham is one of my favourite patterns, what is yours? Artful Amaryllis is a two-step stamp set. This makes for quick and easy colouring of images. You can of course colour them yourself as I’ve done in this card.

I love how this card turned out. These are meant to be amaryllis flowers but I think they could pass for poinsettia ones as well. What do you think? These flowers were created using the Artful Amaryllis dies. I used Real Red and Old Olive cardstock which I inked to give more variation in colour.

I hope you like this fun fold card I’m sharing today. This is a diamond flip fold card. I found the idea on Pinterest from a fellow demonstrator. The paper is the gorgeous Autumn Splender paired with a sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set. These are both new products from the Autumn / Winter catalogue.
