Gatefold Interlocking Framelits

I saw a card similar to this and just had to try it.  I've made these "interlocking" cards before and they are SO neat!

They interlock, so they really DO stay together

You just cut the white label framelit and then using the next larger, put the two together and cut a frame!  When you adhere them to the card, put adhesive on the "frame" for the left side and for the focal piece, adhere to the rigth side.  Neat, eh?

Let me know if you have any questions

Large Scallop Circle Christmas Collectibles Card

I saw this beautiful card shared by Mary Fish on Stampin' Connection.  Just had to case it as it's SO pretty and so easy!!

To make this darling card, using the largest circle (scalloped) from the Circles Framelits, cut a piece of card stock 9 ½” x 5” and score at 4 ¾”.  Line up the framelit on the center score line so the framelit has about 7 scallops above the score line.  This will make your foldable card 

Using the 2^nd largest framelit, cut a piece of Whisper White Card Stock measuring 4 ½” square

Waterfall Mini Album and tutorial

One of our club projects this month is a darling little Waterfall Mini Album.  I found this on Stampin' Connection.  Kelly Gettlefinger shared it and I fell in LOVE with it!

It would make a wonderful little album to share for the holidays - which I'm going to do.  My littlest granddaughter's other grandparents are out of the country right now and missing out on her growth for the last three months, so I'm going to share these pictures with them!!

 

The neat thing about this album, is that it just takes one 12" x 12" piece of card stock and some coordinating design series paper.  Goes together super fast too!!
