Leaves – Fancy Fold – Baker’s Twine for PCC310

Happy Sunday, it’s to be a cold morning here in Pittsburgh, around 38 degrees, but perfect weather to have a fire and enjoy my morning coffee on the sun porch.

Today card is for the Paper Craft Crew Challenge – a Tic-Tac-Toe challenge. After thinking for a day or so, I decided on the 2nd row down and across: Leaves – Fancy Fold – Baker’s Twine.  The leaves are from the Colorful Season’s Stamp Set with matching Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies, Fancy Fold = Bridge Card  and Nature’s Twine is the Baker’s Twine used.

For the leaves on the card, I started with a piece of Shimmery White Paper that I sprinkled with Brusho Colour Crystals and spritzed with water. Once dry, using the Thinlits I die cut 2 large and 3 small. The detailed leave thinlit was used with Copper Foil Sheet to die cut two overlays for the large leaves. For the leaves in the center, I first inked the stamp with Crushed Curry then using sponge daubers added some color around the edges before stamping, then added some Clear Wink of Stella for sparkle. The bow is using three strands of three different colors tied together and added with a mini glue dot.

Here are the dimensions for the “bridge” fancy fold:

·         Card base = 4 ¼” x 8”; score the 8” side at 1 ¼” – 2 ½” – 5 ½” – 6 ¾”

·         Bridge base = 1” x 5 ½” – able to get 2 cards from a 8 ½” x 11” piece of card stock

·         Designer Series Paper for the 4 panels = 1” x 4” (4 pieces in total)

·         Whisper White or Very Vanilla for center = 2 ¾” x 4”

·         Whisper White, Very Vanilla or Designer Paper for inside Bridge section – ¾” x 5 ¼”

·         Suggestion is cut 2^nd piece of Whisper White or Very Vanilla for back of card to use for writing/signing name to card (size 2 ¾” x 4”)
