Gone Fishing pinwheel fun fold

Stampin'UP! has a fun outdoorsy masculine stamp and die bundle in their current catalog called Gone Fishing, with a corresponding Designer Series Paper pack too. I had fun creating a card with it at my friend's card class recently and wanted to share this neat fun fold:

The card base is simply a 4.25" x 5.5"panel of card stock. The neat part of course is the pinwheel fold. And when you open the pinwheel, this is what you see inside:

It’s always a bit tricky figuring out how to close up the pinwheel…LOL Bit isn’t that sentiment just perfect?? The lure is die cut from silver foil card stock and the fish is fussy cut out from the DSP…

And no, there isn’t any space to write much of a personalized message on the front of the card. But you can write on the back. Know anyone who would LOVE this card? Or who loves fishing in general? Then this stamp bundle is made for you! Contact me if you'd like help ordering it..

have an awesome day and thanks for stopping by!

Birthday pink & black floral bridge card using Paper Florist Dies

I received a new set the other day...I love flower dies and this one is no exception. Though I have only used one type of flower from the set, I love it already! There are so many elements to this set and many many variations of blossoms that can be created. So here's that first project: a bridge card: 

Here's a top view of the card:

I kept the flowers only slightly dimensional...I wanted it to fit in the standard A2 envelope but it wasn't going in the mail, so the card in the envelope didn't need to be 1/4" thick or less. Here's the card flattened and about to be placed in the envelope:

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
