Facebook Live Bridge Card with Tonic Header Dies and Paper Wishes Romantic Florals Paper


I love how this bridge card turned out and you can still watch me make it and maybe win it by watching the Live video from yesterday (3/17/22) here on my Karen's Kreative Kards Facebook page, and leaving a comment before 3/23/22. Here is another view of the bridge card I made:


Isn't that paper gorgeous? It is from a 6 x 6 pack called Romantic Florals by Hot Off The Press at Paper Wishes. The beautiful "congratulations" sentiment die and the rose header dies are from Tonic Studios. I cut two of the roses and couldn't decide where to put the second one, but I decided to put it on top of the first fold in the bridge card. That may have been a mistake because then the card I made did not fit into a 5 x 7 envelope or a 6x6 square envelope which were the largest I own. But I solved the problem by making my own envelope in my WeRMemory Keepers Envelope Board. I am going to make a video soon using the Envelope Board again, but I can share that if you take a 12 x 12 piece of lighter weight patterned paper and use the score line of 4 7/8" on all sides, it makes an envelope just big enough to mail this card perfectly (6 1/2" x 6 1/4".) Whew! 



Here are the view of the card from the back (where I did add another piece of the lovely patterned paper over the bottom of the back of the rose header die as I said in the Live) and also the template picture I promised to post. As you can see you can choose to put the bridge on the top or bottom and also make the bridge piece a little taller or shorter than the 1 1/2" on the template. 

I hope you like the card I created in this week's Live on Facebook and will watch it on replay and leave a comment for a chance to win it (USA mailing addresses only please.) I also shared some new and exciting cardmaking products I will be playing with soon. 

I am entering this card in the Favorite Things challenge at Simon Says Stamp because fun folds are my favorite thing to do:)
