Hello and welcome to the IDEAS Blog Hop for August 2023 - featuring cards with fun folds.

We have a range of projects from easy and fun for new stampers or more detailed designs for an avid crafter.  Each tutorial includes 1-2 projects.

This month we have curated tutorials from 15 international Demonstrators with a 75 page full color tutorial bundle for you, featuring colorful cards.  You will get 1t detailed tutorials with a range of projects.  The tutorials have detailed instructions in imperial (aka inches!) and metric.





Here is our sneak peek collage for the August IDEAS Tutorial Bundle.  Each photo represents one designer's tutorial in our bundle.



I used the fun Bright & Beautiful designer paper along with the Darling Details bundle and made a fun fold card and a fun fold box.

All the details, how-to, dimensions and tips are in my tutorial. Lots of photos and diagrams to make it easy to follow along.    A super fun suite of projects!  


I hope you like these projects and the projects from my fellow IDEAS demonstrators.  It's really a great bundle of inspiration for crafters or demonstrators looking for new ideas or workshop ideas.  Keep hopping so you can see all the creativity.   The bundle is about 75 pages of detailed full color instructions with 30+ projects and so many tips.

Would you like a copy of the instructions for these projects to use for your personal use, or even to use in your classes? Contact me at MaryKate@MaryKateScott.com Free to customers, or Free to my team members, or $15 by PayPal.

Creating a Faux Stepper Card

My talented teammate Terry Dell'Amico sent me a stunning faux stepper card.  Her's is the one with the pretty flower.  I recreated it with the Sleigh paper and cute Trucking Along set with the punch (both Online Exclusives).





Recipe

The bottom piece is 9 x 4 1/4, score this at 1 1/4, 2 1/2 and 5 3/4

The patterned paper for the bottom is a 4 x 4 cut at 4 x 3 and 4 x 1 (smaller piece on the lower front)

The top piece is 2 1/2 x 11 scored at 5 1/2

The patterned paper for the top is 2 1/4 x 5 1/4


I stamped the road below the truck (otherwise it looks like it floats!) 

I stamped the truck in Pecan Pie (stamping off for a lighter look) the tree is Lost Lagoon.  


It's really easy but has a wow effect.
