Tasteful Touches Fun Fold Card for Sisterhood of Crafters

All Occasion Fun Fold Featuring Tasteful Touches Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

We have a great new challenge for you at Sisterhood of Crafters, “Your Favorite Technique.” This was quite a challenge for me because I really don’t think about techniques when I create a card. I just do what I enjoy! So, in the end, I made a card that I enjoyed to figure out the techniques I like. 😀 It turns out I really like heat and dry embossing then coloring with my alcohol markers. Interesting! The stamp set I used here is a sneak peek from the new Annual Catalog called Tasteful Touches. It has beautiful images and great sentiments, too!

My secrets to making this Quiet Meadow project

This simple fun fold card started with thick Whisper White cardstock, cut at 10 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ then scored at 6 1/4.” Then, I cut the front flap at 4.”
Grapefruit Grove cardstock is one of the retiring in colors and I’m now sorry that I didn’t use it more! I used the cardstock to make layers for the front and inside: 4 1/4″ x 3 3/4″ and 6″ x 4 1/4.”
The front flap has Whisper White cardstock that was cut at 3 5/8″ x 4 1/8,” then dry embossed with the retiring Layering Leaves embossing folder.
The inside flap has designer paper cut at 5 7/8″ x 4 1/8.” It is difficult to notice in the photo but I dry embossed it in the new Tasteful Textile embossing folder.

Card Details

The floral image in Tasteful Touches was inked with VersaMark and Grapefruit Grove and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
The image was colored with Stampin’ Blends (listed in the Product List below) and fussy cut.
Then, the sentiment was also heat embossed with Gray Granite in the same way as the flower. Afterwards, it was cropped out with the die from Stitched So Sweetly dies.
The large oval die cut Gray Granite cardstock, which was then dry embossed with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder.
Another new stamp set from the new catalog is Forever Fern, which will be one of my new favorites. I stamped three of the leaf images in Gray Granite and cropped them with their coordinating dies.
For the inside flap, I thought one of the border dies from the Ornate Borders dies could look nice, so I cut one out from Gray Granite cardstock. Well, the flowers needed to be replaced so I sponged Whisper White cardstock and cut it with the flowers in Ornate Borders dies.
To add a little life to the card, I heat embossed two butterflies in Gray Granite and fussy cut them out.
The finishing touch was adding just a few gold glitter enamel dots to the flowers.

Great sentiments, beautiful images!
