The top card is a simple fold with a locking front using colorful papers intended for making envelopes. But why not make that envelope a part of the card-opening experience, and not just something to hold the card temporarily? With a few easy folds, this "envelopment" is part of what makes the card unique, and there's even an extra hidden pocket inside if you want to add a gift card or paper money too!
The left card has been brewing in my mind as soon as I saw the Lift Me Up Stamp set and coordinating FREE SAB Designer Papers available only through Mar. 31. I wanted to make a card that sailed "up, up, and away", and used a version of the Z-fold style card to do that. I've kept the stamped balloons simple for the class, but you could use the more complicated, multicolored balloon dies in the set to really make this card pop even more!The ice cream card is especially fantastic in the way it folds out when opened. How a card can start off so flat but open up with a fairly simple mechanism that twists and flips is really amazing! Using the Cool Treats stamps with all of its matching Designer Papers, dies, washi tapes and sequins/bead embellishments made this card super easy to design as it all flowed together very naturally. Gotta...make...more of these!
