Buckle Fold Card - Couture Creations

Hi Everyone,
Anet here today and welcome to my inspiration post.

I made a buckle fold card

with the new release Steampunk Dream Collection

from Couture Creations. 

I found the inspiration from Sam's Blog

and altered it to create an A6 card.

Step by step instructions:

1. Cut card base front to 1 3/8". 

2. Cut Delicate Medlar Cardstock to 2 1/2" x 5 5/8" and

Steampunk Dream Pattern Paper to 2 1/4" x 5 3/8".

Stick onto each other and adhere onto card front.

3. Cut leftover white cardstock strip to 3 7/8" and

score at 1 1/2".

4. Die-cut Steampunk Dream Pattern Paper with 

Steampunk Dream Distressed Tags Die and 

adhere white cardstock strip onto tag. Trim off edges.

 

5. Cut Delicate Medlar Cardstock to 1 5/8" x 5 5/8" and

Steampunk Dream Pattern Paper to 1 3/8" x 5 3/8".

Stick onto each other, adhere tag 

and then adhere onto inside of card base.

 

6. Die-cut Mirror Board with 

Steampunk Dream Mesh Die and adhere onto card front.

7. Die-cut Mirror Board with 

Steampunk Dream Chain Die and cut through middle.

8. Adhere just one side of the die-cut chain 

onto card front. Slide tag through chain.

9. Stamp Steampunk Dream Butterfly Stamp onto 

Delicate Medlar Cardstock and heat emboss.

Adhere onto card front using 3D foam dots.

Tip: Use the non smooth side of the cardstock

to give the butterfly a vintage look.

10. Ink and die-cut Delicate Medlar Cardstock with

Steampunk Dream Stamp Of Love Cut and Create Die.

Adhere onto tag using 3D foam dots.





11. Die-cut Mirror Board with gear dies

and Steampunk Dream Pattern Paper with heart die.

using 3D foam dots to finish.
