Cheers! Floating Drinks on Vertical Bandstand Cards in Two Sizes!

I love to find new fun folds to try and also to share new die sets like the Love On the Rocks from Spellbinders Happy Hour Collection. I came across a tutorial from Sue Stampfield on how to make this A2 sized Floating Vertical Bandstand Card. The strawberries from Spellbinders appear to be floating on the acetate strip and the inked embossing was made with a Spellbinders Feather Flourish 3D embossing  folder. I liked the A2 version but had some bigger drinks from Spellbinders I wanted to float, so I created a 5 x 7 vertical floating bandstand template and then made this card in my new video:

I knew I had to get the Love On The Rocks die set from Spellbinders because the drink can be made to look just like a Brandy Old Fashioned which is our family drink when we celebrate. I embossed the pieces on the band with any older embossing folder from Darice and added some hearts rainbow patterned paper on the back of the inside. The sentiments on the front and back were all foiled in my Glimmer Machine with a new BetterPress set with matching dies called Valentine Happy Hour Sentiments from Spellbinders. Here is a look at the back of this card which stands up for display and folds flat to mail in a 5 x 7 envelope:

Here is another 5 x 7 vertical floating bandstand card I made and this one features the Sunset In a Glass die set also from Spellbinders. I share all these cards in the new video and it is easier to see them in that but here is a side view of this card:

The drinks appear to be floating on the acetate strip. I love this new fun fold and here are pictures of my templates to make it easy if you want to try them:

I do walk through making the 5 x 7 version in the video step by step but these measurements might be something you can save if you want to try either size.
