Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises
The card today is another happy, cheery card. I love red and purple together. I used Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises stamp set, as you can see. I also used Softly Sophisticated 3 D Embossing Folder and Stylish Shapes Dies. I’ve made this fun fold before, but this time it seemed so much easier. Maybe it’s because I made it before.
These are the challenges for this card.
All the card cut are at the end of this post. You may want to do all the cutting and die cutting before starting the putting together process. Most people probably do that, but many cut as they go, I find it easier to cut, stamp, and die cut all pieces before putting together. You can see from the photo how the pieces on the card front are layered.
A panel of Basic White is embossed using Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder along with the heart. The panel is adhered to the card base, then the Real Read, Gorgeous Grape, and Basic White cardstock pieces are adhered to the embossed panel. The Most Adored Designer Series Paper heart is popped in the middle the Basic White piece. The heart has three other die cut heart adhered to it to give it dimension, so dimensionals to not have to be used.
After you have scored the 5″ x 8″ piece of Basic White cardstock at 2″, 4″, 6″ center a die of your choice to create the opening for the heart. I used the largest circle die from Stylish Shapes to create mine. Adhere the Gorgeous Grape panels to the edge of each side of the card base. Then adhere the designer series paper over the Gorgeous Grape cardstock panels. Stamp a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprise stamp set in Real Red ink on the two Basic White hearts. Take a length of twine and adhered between the two hearts. Adhere the heart in the opening of the circle by attaching the string to the back of the Basic White panel. You can see in the photo how the heart hangs.
Adhere the Fun Fold panel to the right and left side of the card base. Line the first score line and the last score line with the edge of the Gorgeous Grape pieces. You can see in the photo. Adhere your fussy cut bees with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
A Basic White medium envelope gets a piece of Most Adored Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
