Partial Bridge Card Video

3D Projects· Christmas Cards· Fancy Fold Cards· Videos

1 Nov

Hello, Crafters.

It was announced yesterday evening that England is going back into lockdown for four weeks starting on Thursday, 5th November! That’s also the day which also sees the start of the Stampin’ Up! Virtual OnStage event – called OnStage@Home – and it’s also hubby’s birthday! Personally, I’m pleased about a lockdown except it means I probably won’t be able to have Sharon to do my nails! Like a lot of countries, cases of Covid are spiking at an alarming rate and something drastic needs to be done!

Today’s video shows how to make a fun fancy fold card called a Partial Bridge Card, although a Double Partial Bridge Card may be a better title! As well as showing how to make this card, in today’s video I also show you how to do partial die-cutting if the die is too big for your image/sentiment. I also show you how to add “stitches” to a banner that needs to be scored and I also give you a great tip for cleaning your rubber stamps after you’ve been using Whisper White Craft ink.

I saw a card like this made by Frenchie AKA France Martin which she called 3D Fold Best Catch. Frenchie’s card was a scene with the sky on the top banner, the river on the bottom banner and tree and grass in the centre part. In the river there was a man fishing. If you put Frenchie 3D Fold Best Catch in the search bar on YouTube it will find the tutorial for you. It’s definitely worth checking it out.

I had a lot of fun making this card and I hope you decide to give it a go – I’m sure you’ll love it! I stamped the two banners that go across the card by stamping snowflakes with White Craft Ink all over. I decided to do this because I used my usual layers on my first attempt but it was way, way too thick! I needed to use a single layer but I didn’t want it plain. This seemed to be a great compromise.

That’s it from me today. I wish you a very blessed Sunday and I look forward to being back with you on Tuesday. In the meantime, take care and stay safe. Happy crafting.

JanB.

    Morning Jan. STUNNING, just stunning. I know I do not have any stamp sets (Christmas ones) that would do it justice – being in Australia and having a “hot” Christmas, I never think to purchase stamp sets or DSP that have snow scenes. May I ask you to add to your To Do List a card using this design but one that is not Christmas themed as I am truly drawing a blank. Will be blessing your socks off during your lockdown (Victoria is just opening up a little now). Please do take care and know that you are being Blessed from afar. XX Mal

      Many thanks, Mal. What images do Aussies decorate their Christmas cards with? I’ll bear a non-Christmas card in mind for you. xx

        Morning Jan. Most Aussie Christmas cards have a snow scene! I laugh every time I see someone giving a snowfield card on Christmas Day when it is usually 35C I do have a CTMH stamp showing Santa in shorts carrying a surfboard which I use for “special friends”. Some use the florals – poinsettia etc but most are snow, deer, mouse. Stay safe Jan and Othman in your lockdown XX M

          Hi, Mal. I remember a few years back Stampin’ Up! released a stamp set that featured Santa in shorts! Given that we are a global company, I think something for sunny Christmas countries should have something that applies specifically to them. xx

            Morning Jan. I so agree with you. I wanted to purchase the stamp set with the Koala (something Buddies) and when I saw it in reality was so disappointed as it honestly did not look like a Koala. But I am grateful that SU do occasionally think of us Aussies!!! Blessings: Mal

            Hi, Mal. Othman was so chuffed to receive your email this morning. He asked me to pass on his thanks to you! 💖 Long may it continue that SU considers our other markets! xx

          Hi, Doreen. Are you watching the video via my blog or via YouTube? You must be on YouTube. Which device are you watching on? If it’s a laptop or PC, under the video there are about three lines of writing and then SHOW MORE – click on it. If you’re on a mobile phone, you’ll see a little black arrow on the right-hand side – click on it. Please rest assured the box is there! 😀

            Brilliant. Many thanks for letting me know Doreen. I knew we’d get there in the end. Enjoy. xx

          It’s definitely there so let’s go back and start again. First – are watching the video on YouTube and not via the link on my website? Are you watching on a device that is NOT a laptop, a PC or a mobile phone? If yes, what device? Bear with me and we’ll get this worked out! xx
