Happy Thanksgiving Scalloped rectangle shaped card with hot foil

This card came about during a phone call to my friend when this idea popped into my head.  I wrote it down, finished my phone call, then came inside and went to work on the idea which involved a foiled brick wall, the little mouse, and leaves.  This is the final result.  During the working phase I decided to try to make a scalloped rectangle card...I will definitely be making more of those.  It's so easy to put together and it's something different than your every day card.

You're gold pop-out diamond fun fold card

 I've made another pop-out diamond fun fold card for you today.  I love this fold, it looks like it should be so hard but comes together so easily!  It adds an additional wow factor to your handmade card.  I wanted to showcase the Good Luck stamp set as Stampin' Up! rarely gives us a stamp set for St. Patrick's Day.  I suggest you get it as soon as possible before it sales out.  Once Valentine's Day is over, it will start to sell quickly.  To see how I've put my card together, be sure to pop on over to my YouTube channel for the video tutorial.  You can find it easily by clicking this link.

Happy Birthday bee fun fold

For my project today, I'm bringing in a stamp set that was been around for a bit, hopefully, you have it on hand already.  It works for so many things.  I decided to make this a very easy fun fold card.  Just one extra score and voila, you have this fun fold made easily.  You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.

I hope you give this fun fold a try.  I did have a bit of trouble using the small little bird as an anchor to keep the card closed during the video.  I revamped it, cut the bird die in thick basic white three times, glued each layer on top of the other and added my stamped bird image over the top.  I then placed a double stack of glue dots on my card where I needed it and added the bird stack to the glue dots.  It isn't perfect, but it works with such a small image.  

You will find all the supplies I've used today in my online store by clicking on the shopping cart to the right.  Thank you so much for stopping by!  I'm so pleased you did.

Until next time; be happy, good health to you and happy stamping!
