This week my featured Stamp set is Marvelous Nature. Today also happens to be the Crafty Collaborations Share it Sunday Blog hop, so I'm sharing one of the cards I made using Marvelous Nature.
The Crafty Collaborations team is comprised of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world. We collaborate on projects and Blog Hops and the last Sunday of each month is the Share it Sunday Blog Hop.
Today's card is a tonal monochromatic card made with the colors Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon and Pool Party.
The fern Image on the card front was made using sponge daubers and these three colors to ink the stamp which was then stamped on Basic White cardstock. I thought the ombre effect gave a bit of interest to the image.
The Fun Fold is a Gate Fold with a twist! When it is closed it is a gate fold, but when you slide off the belly band and open the card, the fun begins. I love how this fold stands up for easy display!
I used designer series paper from the Inked Botanicals DSP. The Leaf Stems on three of the inside panels were die cut with the Textured Floral Dies. Sentiments are also from Marvelous Nature.
If you would like a tutorial for this Fun Fold, you can download a copy at this link. It includes all cutting dimensions, step-by step directions, and a sketch to help you with the scoring. A complete Product list is included on the tutorial as well as at the end of this post.
Now it is time to Hop Along with the rest of the Crafty Collaborations team and be inspired. Enjoy!
