Try this fun corner fold to give your cards a unique look that will catch the receiver’s eye. It actually involves cutting some slits in the card front and then flipping it! Watch my video tutorial to learn how.
This card design is vey versatile in that your focal point can be stamped, die cut, punched or even, like you see here, just a nice piece of designer series paper. How easy is that? And with all the choices Stampin’ Up! has for designer paper, you will have no problem finding something you can use in this way.
Three Samples To Try
The flower cards here use the bright and beautiful Flowers for Every Season DSP. Perfect for celebrating the coming of spring, or use on Easter cards, birthday….. whatever! Make a fun kid’s card, or sea-lover’s card, with the Whale of a Time DSP. Lots of sea creatures to enjoy with this paper. And even better, there is a coordinating whale punch and stamp set! Bundle the set and punch and get 10% off.! Check out the whole Whale of a Time Suite beginning on page 94 in the Annual Catalog.
Did you know that you can cut the photopolymer stamps if you want to separate words or images? On the blue card below, the words Happy and Birthday were cut apart so I could reposition them on my block to fit the oval punch! Don’t worry….. when you want them back in their original format, just fit them back together and you can even tell they were cut! I’ll be honest, it too me a while to get the “guts” to do this, but once I did and saw how easy it was to put back together, I was happy I did.
