Fun Fold Friday - Simply Elegant Lock & Pop Card

Had to use my Simply Elegant papers again before they go for good! Along with the Bouquet of Love dies.... and the retired Sweet & Sassy and Large Numbers dies dies (as I needed a larger heart for the numbers)

And it was time to re-size the Lock& Pop card shared here... so this is an A6(ish) version... but more on that another day...

And the view from the back....

Perfect card for our Silver Wedding Anniversary later this year!

Merry Monday - Whimsy & Wonder Lock & Pop Card

Another one we all enjoyed creating last week... using the beautiful Whimsy & Wonder papers...along with a Wonderful Snowflake... and the Christmas Season stamps & dies... 

Click HERE for the Lock & Pop Card fold tutorial I shared earlier...

And don't forget to come back at 11pm tomorrow, 30th November.. when the Last Chance list goes live... which is when you can get these stamps and dies at 50% off... wow... 

Though... as much as we love our half pricers... do be sure to see the full list of all the retiring seasonal items and check out the other discounted items too... only available while stocks last...

Friday Fun Fold - Lock & Pop Card Tutorial

Another Large Square Lock & Pop card for you today... 

As one just had to be made with a Merriest Frames embossed and die cut panel... though still featuring the gorgeous Tidings of Christmas papers and Merriest Moments stamps...

Click here for the previous Christmas one... or here OR here for All Year round versions... And yes... I did finish the 60+ cards mentioned... but more on that another day...

So whilst I am at it... a quick tutorial for you too... love a simple fun fold like this one... 

1. Cut cardstock to 14.8cm x 29cm

2. Landscape. Score at 1, 7, 13, 16, 22 & 28cm 

3. Bone Fold Mountain, Valley, Mountain, Mountain, Valley, Mountain

4. Decorate as required.
I prepped 3 panels of papers cut to 11 x 14.3cm H. Which we then cut in half in portrait orientation to 5.5 x 14.3cm H just prior to sticking... Saves all the panels getting all mixed up!

Oh and yes lots going out with the Merriest Frames panel... but more on that another day...

Elegantly Said Lock & Pop Card

Returning to my Fancy & Fun Fold Friday posts.... with a Lock & Pop card... as shared by Sam at Mixed Up Craft here... another one I love Sam...

A stunner care of the new Elegantly Said suite.... these foiled Elegantly Said Papers are so stunning... and so elegant! I love them! Along with the Stitched So Sweetly die cut frame...

And I know that these cards will be a real hit when I get back to running classes for a living!

This first one was made especially for my son's birthday... 

Though... I couldn't resist adding one of the gorgeous new gold Bumblebee Trinkets which may puzzle him... 

Though actually it is a great good luck symbol for him at present... as many of the attributed symbolisms of a bee make sense in his life at present... such as focus, persistence, harmony, loyalty and industrious (as in busy as a bee)

And don't forget to order your Simply Elegant Kit soon... as actually... it forms the base of a nice Class in the Mail with the cards I have already made... so a bonus for you!
