weSTAMP Swap

Our weSTAMP swap theme was Masculine for this month's meeting.

I was inspired by a card made by Bron Heslop. Her amazing blog can be found HERE. This technique is called FUNKY FOLD. I found a great video on SCS explaining how to make this card. You can view it HERE. I did alter my dimensions a bit from the video.

Recipe:
Stamp Set: Sail Away, En Francais
Paper: Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler
Ink: Night of Navy, Crumb Cake
Accessories: Baker's Twine, Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch

More swaps will be posted in the next day or two after I get caught up a bit around here!

Having seen Lorri's card in person the picture doesn't do it justice. It really is an AWESOME card!

Lorri's cards are THE BEST!!

Lorri, your card is AWESOME! Love how you've incorporated a ship's wheel with the image! Very cool. I look forward to getting that baker's twine here in NZ; it really adds to the finished project. Well done you - I love it!
(It's a shame I can't share my card yet, as well - won't be long, though!)

Hi Lorri, I just loved this card, is it possible for you to e-mail me the scoring and cutting details as the ladies video doesn't seem to work and anyway my computer is not giving out any sound at the moment and I can't work it out, I am a dumbo!! I wish we could get the bakers twine over here.
Regards Rene xo

Oh this is just adorable and so creative - love the 'wheel'!! Would you be willing to share your dimensions with me? I tried one with a 6x12 piece and it just seems too 'bulky' (sorry I'm not much of a math wiz and I'm pregnant, brain just ain't workin LOL). Thank you so much!! kimmerkidd (at) yahoo (dot) com
