Joy Fold Anniversay Card - Elizabeth Craft Designs

 Hi and Welcome!

It's July 1st and we're in the middle of a heat wave. 

Our 63rd anniversary is next week and this is the fun fold card I created for my husband using the beautiful Bohemian Rose Collection by Designs by Angelica Turner. 

Cut Pink cardstock 8 1/2 x 5 1/2", score at 4 1/4" on the long side. Place in the paper timmer at an angle and cut from the score line to the outer corner to create diagonal front. Cut Bohemian Rose cardstock 4 x 5 1/4", place in the paper trimmer and in half on the diagonal. Ink the edges and adhere one half to the diagonal front and save the other half for another joy fold card. Cut white cardstock 4 x 5 1/4", dry emboss and adhere to the inside of the card. Cut pink cardstock 3 1/4 x 8 1/4" and score at 4 1/4". Cut white cardstock 3 x 4", dry emboss and adhere to the front of this tent folded insert. Now adhere to the inside making sure that the diagonal front closes over it.

Diecut, color and shape the roses and the greenery. Assemble the roses and create  a pretty cluster on the front of the card.

Stamp the sentiment on white cardstock, fussy cut and adhere under the roses using dimensional dots.

I love this fun fold. It's so easy and yet it creates a really interesting card.

Yes, my hubby likes it when I add flowers to his cards.

This designer paper is sooo beautiful. I find myself reaching for it all the time. 

Cut white cardstock 3 x 4", stamp the image and adhere to the inside as shown.

Cut in half, place back in the die to create the stitched edge on the cut side. Diecut Pretty Pastels cardstock using the second largest square. Cut to 2 1/2" and put back in the die to create the stitched edge. Adhere the two diecuts together and adhere to the 3" side of the card front.

Love these flowers! You can add a sentiment if you want but I decided not to on this particular card. 

The funfold creates so much interest and is so easy.

Start with an A2 foiled card base and then cut a pearlized cream card layer 4 x 5 1/4" and emboss it using a textured embossing folder. Adhere to the card base using dimensional tape.

Cut, color, shape and assemble a rose from the Bohemian Rose Collection. Cut, color and shape greenery from the same collection. Cut additional greenery from gold cardstock and shape. Adhere the greenery and rose to the card front using hot glue.

Add the gold "Sweet 16" to the top left of the card front. To add a little sparkle, adhere some Swarovski crystals.

Cut a 4 x 5 1/4" metallic gold layer for the inside and adhere. Add sentiment to 3 3/4 x 5" white cardstock. Use a pretty corner punch and then adhere to the gold layer.

Thinking of You/Sympathy - Elizabeth Craft Designs

 Hi and welcome!

A dear friend passed away and this is the card I made to send to his grieving wife. I altered the beautiful rose from the Bohemian Rose Collection by Designs by Angelica Turner to create this flower and used the beautiful Ornamental Frame, also designed by Angelica, as the base.

Use the outside die from the Ornamental Frame to create the card base. Diecut another layer in white and a layer in a light purple. Adhere the layers together and adhere to the card base. Diecut the decorative layers in white and adhere. When you adhere the center diecuts, use dimensional squares.  

Diecut, color and shape the rose and the greenery. I used three layers, two larger and one the next size smaller to create each flower and then added pearl stamens.  

Adhere the flowers and greenery to the card front using hot glue. Stamp the sentiment on white cardstock using black ink, diecut using the smallest circle from the Rectangle Gift Box and adhere to the card front using dimensional squares. 

Using the outside die from the Ornamental Frame, diecut light purple cardstock and adhere to the inside of the card. Add your message to 6 x 4" white cardstock, use a punch to create the ticket corners and adhere to the inside. 

Update: Before I put the card in the mail, I decided to add a butterfly from my stash. I think that really finished it off.
