The card today is a mix of Floral patterns from the Unbounded Beauty DSP. I have paired it with a wonderful quad fold layout. It looks very elaborate, but is easy to create. Stand by for all four photos!
Above is the fully closed card. Next is the first flap open.
Next is with both front flaps open.
And finally to show there is still the regular inside of the card. So plenty of room for your thoughts and signature.
STAMPS & DIES
This fold allows for several locations to add a sweet sentiment. All of the ones I used are from the Unbounded Love Bundle. There are two sentiments and on the smaller of the front flaps, I added a die cut leaf from the Bundle. It was fun deciding on placement for the different stamps and papers.
The stamping is all done using the colors of the paper. For the sentiments I went with Petunia Pop for the pop of color. And for the foliage images I used Summer Splash. These images are from the Flowers of Beauty Stamp set.
PAPERS
These beautiful papers are all from the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper. I love how well they all work together. The smaller bouquets on the front flap are fussy cut from one of the sheets, in addition to the solid pieces.
The gorgeous blue / green is Coastal Cabana. I liked the light and bright of this pairing. For the front flap I added texture using the Cute Crochet Embossing Folder. These sweet designs in the paper paired perfectly with the floral images of the papers.
EXTRAS
To add some “stand out” detail to the fussy cut florals on the front flap I used the Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Write Marker to go around the edge of the cut outs. It helps the White to blend better onto the Coastal Cabana. And for the bling, I went with the InColor Resin Dots. There are a couple of different colors of these dots passed around the card.
The Unbounded Beauty DSP, Unbounded Love Bundle, the Flowers of Beauty stamp set, and the In Color Resin Dots are all from the Unbounded Beauty Suite of Products. This is a double bundle suite and is fabulous.
MEASUREMENTS
To create this card only takes a few extra score marks and extra pieces of cardstock. The card base is 4 1/4 X 11 scored at 5 1/2. The front top left flap is 4 X 31/2 and scored at 1/2″ on the 4″ side. And the bottom right flap is 3 1/2 X 3 scored at 1/2″ on the 3 1/2′ side.
The flaps are added to the card base prior to the large piece of DSP. Fold on the score lines and then align the flap score line with the edge of the front of the card base. Space the two flaps evenly from the top and bottom of the card.
The DSP and Basic White pieces are all 1/8″ smaller than the base they are on. The largest DSP on the card base is 4 1/8 X 5 3/8. The large flap is 3 3/8 X 3 3/8 as is the Basic White on the reverse side. For the smaller flap you need 2 7/8 X 2 7/8 of DSP and Basic White.
