Something Saturday - Triangle Fancy Fold Cards

 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off  how to create one of the sets of cards I taught at Craft Alive.

Something Saturday - Tulip Dies

Hi Creators,

Well this week I thought we'd check out the gorgeous Tulip Dies they're a bit different in that 3 of them have special folds, which I felt needed a bit of explanation (in other words I had to check out what others had done too 😉)

So here's my "take" on it...... this is the card I made before the video

Tulip Dies, Stampin' Up!

I love the idea of the tulips being a bit 3D, so I've curled the card, and added the glossy stuff, which on the left hand tulip is the Shimmery Crystal Effects and the other 2 are done with the Fine Tip Glue Pen.  Mine sadly got all gunked up in the lid,  (there is a pin that's meant to go into the extremely fine tip, and the pin got a bit mangled!)  anyway more than one way to get round things, so I unscrew the lid and use a toothpick to apply it 😃 gives a lovely glossy finish.

Then in the video I show the components I used to create these 3 flowers: Here is the line up......

Then in the video I make up the flowers for this card...

I think the die that produces this squares pattern is pretty cool (and bonus! it's in with the tulip dies!!)

I was thinking it might make quite a nice sympathy card, but I think I'll leave it till I decide who I'm giving it to.  As you can see in the background I've added a purple wash using the thick water painter brush from the set, I didn't think it needed much in the background and I'm happy with the way it turned out - which card out of these 2 is your favourite?

 Check out the video, to see how I put the flowers together


 I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
