Double Drapery Fold Technique

Hi there and happy Monday!  Hope you had a great weekend and you're ready for a technique.  It's  another drapery fold technique - this time a double fold.  (You can glimpse the single/regular drapery fold in my April 8th blog post HERE.)  The Designer Series Paper used is some really old Stampin' Up! DSP called Cottage Wall.  (Yes, I'm one of those people who hate cutting into that pretty paper!  This year I'm determined to change my ways.)  There are videos on You Tube with instructions for this technique.  I happened to watch Deb Valder's.  Current products used for this card - Botanical Builder Framelits and a sentiment from Jar of Love.

Wishing you a wonderful week!  Thanks so much for visiting!!

Painted Blooms Sympathy

Hi there!  I'm back with another card image that has been sitting in the computer waiting to be posted. The focal piece is from the Painted Blooms Designer Series Paper, which was in the 2015 Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog.  Such lovely paper!  I felt the DSP was elegant enough for a sympathy card to send to my daughter's friend, who lost her grandma a few months ago.  This card was totally designed from bits and pieces (current and retired) that we all seem to accumulate over time.  So go check out your "bits and pieces" to see what you can make!

Thank you for stopping by today!  Your visits are always welcome!

Drapery Fold Technique

Hi there!  Boy, this week sure flew by!  So without further adieu, let's get to the card.  The "drapery" fold technique seems to be all the rage on Pinterest , so I decided to give it a try.  I used some retired Designer Series Paper called, Twitterpated for the "drapery".  Unfortunately, the fold doesn't show up very well in the photo.  The flower was made using the Botanical Builder Framelits, which can be found in the 2016 Stampin' Up! Ocassions Catalog.  The sentiment is from the Wetlands set. One of my favorite sets.

Better get this posted before it's tomorrow.  Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping in today!
