Double Dutch / New & Old

Hi Stampers!
I haven't taken much time to stamp lately - been busy with other things! I did see a card done with the Double Dutch Fold and thought I'd give it a try! And ended up with 2 different cards... This first one has the new DSP Summer Smooches on it; however the stamp is from SAB so it has been retired

This second card uses SAB DSP and stamp, and the inside sentiment is from Herb Expressions which is retiring as of the end of May.

I have new stuff and catalogues arriving over the next 2 days!!!! Can't wait to get my hands on it! hopefully I'll have something to show you by the end of the week!

Keep stampin'! and Keep smilin'!
HUGS .... Ruthie

Diamond Fold Christmas

Good Morning!
Whoa! It's chilly today... 3 degrees according to hubby. Furnace is on this morning, for sure.
I can't seem to get out of the Christmas Card mode.... guess that is because I have a couple more Christmas clubs booked so I just keep producing! :)

Here is a Diamond Fold card I made a week or so ago and neglected to show you! To make the fold you score a 4 x 12 inch piece of CS at 2" and 10". Turn it over and mark the midpoint (6") both top and bottom; take right side and fold on diagonal from top 6" mark to bottom 6" mark; then do left side. Turn 180 degrees and repeat these folds. You now have the middle diamond and the 2 ends - now fold together and voila!

The mat on the 1" circle is the first punch from the triple doily punch! I lightly colored the image with markers and blender pen. The small acorn image - stamped twice - is from the set "Lovely As A Tree".

Thanks for stopping by today!
I hope there is lots of sunshine whereever you are today!
HUGS!

Origami Christmas card

Good Morning Stampers!
I hope all my Canadian friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Everything that was on our table came from within a 30 mile radius of us except for the cranberry sauce - and that only b/c I didn't have the time or inclination to make my own! How cool is that!
Here is a card for you that was made at our last Christmas Card class .... it is an origami fold - so easy to do using an 11" by 11" piece of DSP .... can be used for any occasion!

Here is the front - with the card closed...
 This shows the "pocket" of the front diamond -
 This shows the inner diamond
 Here is the card partly open....

Check out http://wickedlywonderfulcreations.blogspot.com/ for excellent instructions for this project!

Remember to be thankful - all the time!
HUGS!
