This is my last post with Love You Much! I just sold it as I really hate this set. I know, gasp!!! I finished this for a swap I'm in and so long...Cardstock: Riding Hood Red, Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette
Stamp Set: so long to... Love You Much
Accessories: Candy Lane DSP, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, 1/8" Circle Punch, Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Flower Fusion, brads, Stampin' Dimensionals.
1/29/09 Edited to add dimensions
1. Start with a half sheet of paper, 8 1/2" x 11". Cut 1 1/4" off one side (front) and use the corner rounder on the top back two corners only.
2. Chocolate Chip cardstock is 6 1/4" x 4", score at 2 1/2". Fold on score line. This piece does not reach to the middle on the inside, it is about 1/4" from the center score line. It just worked out that way, you can make it longer if it bugs you. Because the Chocolate Chip is dark to write on, I put a piece of the light pink DSP in the Candy Lane DSP pack on it, size 3 3/4" x 3 1/2".
3. Whisper White piece is 3 3/4" x 2 1/4". Stamp image.
4. Striped DSP on the bottom of the card is 5 1/4" x 2 3/4".
5. I put stampin' dimensionals on only the lower half of the scallop circle I used as the closure

Gorgeous card - it's amazing you've done such a great job with a set you hate, I can never get inspired if i don't like the stamps! TFS
I really like this style of card, can I have the dimensions or instructions too? I guess I like this set because I love hearts but I understand it can be too cheesy.

I have a hard time thinking you hate this set when you've made such great cards with it. I love your card. I saved the picture in my card ideas file.
P.S. Thanks for the comments on SCS.
P.S.S. I'm looking forward to our next group get together.
That's hilarious that you can turn out such gorgeous cards even with a set you hate. LOL Great job with it Love the flip and tuck thing it does.
I find it hard to believe anyone could hate this set...but you did beautiful work with it! Will you share the measurements of the card?
Hugs~

Your projects are stunning!!

OMG - THANK YOU!! I was beginning to think there was something WRONG with me for hating this stamp set! I have seen soooooo many things made with it and was starting to think I was the only one that didn't order it (or want it). I have to give you huge props for making such an adorable card with a set you don't even like - You are truly blessed with a talent that escapes me. Thank you for all your beautiful ideas and projects.
Wow! this card is gorgeous! you did such an awesome job with a set that you hate! also thanks for sharing the instructions.
Love the card...and I'm not fond of this set, either. The only thing I like about it is the bird (or is it birds?, I don't even know!)
OMG, you are too funny. I hate this set too but your card is beautiful. I never would have known if you hadn't spilled the beans!
Becky I love this fold. I have tried several different ways to get this look, but you have it figured out.....way cute!!!
Becky
thanks so much for sharing
this fun project and instructions
Jean
Hi Becky, Love the card I like the others can't believe that you hate this set & do such a great job with cards. But taht is OK, can you imagine how boring life would be if we all liked the same thing. I do have a question on your directions "At what dimension do you score the 8 1/2 x 11? " My email is "kraftynes@sympatico.ca"
Thanks Barb Nesplic
Thanks for adding the instructions! You rock!!
Hello Becky - We haven't even had the chance to have this set in the UK - but let's not be hasty - it may be on its way next year - I have to say I quite like it, I can't say I hate it as it does have redeeming elements - but super cards from a set that doesn't give you that crafty 'tingle' - I enjoy your blog and have it bookmarked - I hop across most days and I am never disappointed - Bridgette
Well, no matter what your feelings are for this set, Thanks for making such a beautiful card - and I am so proud to be the owner of one of these! Best of the bunch in the swap!
I live just outside Boise also...small world!
