Welcome to Just Julie B Stampin'! And welcome to the Creation Station Blog Hop for May! Our creations this month are "Up in the Air!" So one of the first must-haves that I bought in my demonstrator preorder was the Adventurous Sky bundle, the Take to the Sky Designer Series Paper and Industrial Trinkets! - And it's all a perfect fit for the theme this month! It's also a great suite of products to use for some awesome masculine cards.
This card is a super fun and easy layout, for a little something different too! It's called a Fold Back Card. You start with a 5 1/2" x 7 1/2" card base, and then score it at 3 1/4" and 6 1/2".
The one inch section is the 'fold back' part! And I decorated mine with a piece of Boho Blue Cardstock that was dry embossed with the Metal Plate Folder. And then, an important part in creating the card, you attach your focal pieces to the one inch section as well. I used a Nested Essentials die cut piece to attach my airplane and sentiment onto!
Something I love about this layout also is the size Designer Paper piece used on the front and inside! I had a 3" x 6" piece that I trimmed off a 3/4" strip from the bottom edge. The larger 3" x 5 1/4" piece was for the card front.
And the 3/4" x 3" strip accented the bottom edge of the White Cardstock piece inside. Seems like a funny thing, but it makes me happy when I can use all the paper, with no leftover scraps!
I hope you enjoyed your stop here, and I can't wait to see what the awesome Denita Wright-Smee has in store for us next on the hop!
See you soon,
Julie B
