Center Step Card with **NEW** Bunny Hugs Set!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a fun “Center Step Card” using the brand-new Ai Bunny Hugs Set (6008). This cute set has some wonderful bunnies, a topiary of eggs, a basket of carrots, cute butterflies, several sentiments and so much more!

Let’s get started by stamping, coloring and die-cutting all of the images that we will be using on our card today. All of the coloring will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Peach Pink, Pink, Sugared Almond Pink, Lt Pink, Lt Carmine, Pale Yellow, Yellow, Ice Blue, Cobalt Blue, Turquoise Green, May Green, Green, Orange, Lt Brown, Beige, Oatmeal, Mid Brown, Lilac, Lt Gray.

Next, we can create the “Center Step” base of the card and layers using some pretty patterned papers from the Ai Basic Yellow, Green, and Teal Paper Packs. I will give you all of the instructions for the base of the card and all of the measurements for each of the layering papers in today’s video!

Once the base of the card and layers have been assembled, we will create a pretty bow for the card using the Ai Gift Card Pocket Set (5811). We can glue this to the bottom of the card, and this will add lots of interest and dimension to the card!

Let’s stamp a couple of the sentiments from this set onto some white cardstock and some yellow polka dot cardstock using the label die from the Ai Journal Template die Set (5543). We can also add some black stitching around the edges of these sentiments using a permanent black marker. We can place one of these on the outside of the card and the other on the inside.

For a bit of sparkle, let’s add some pretty white gems around the card, sentiment label, and to the bow!

Let’s make a super fun and special card today! This card is called a Center Step Card and although it looks a bit complicated it is really quite simple! In the video today, I will give you all of the dimensions and cutting/scoring measurements to create this fun fold card.

For the focal image, we will be using an image from the Ai Cheers My Deers Set (5565) of two of the cutest little ladies, all decked out in their holiday best. The antlers are the perfect finishing touch for their outfits!

For our coloring today we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Flesh Colour, Mustard, Beige, Ever Green, Moss Green, Deep Red, Mid Brown, Lt Gray.

The card base will be created using some kraft cardstock and for some festive holiday layers we will be using the Letters to Santa Collection from Carta Bella. Including some double-sided 12″x12″ Solids, a wonderful 6″x6″ Paper Pad and some pretty Enamel Dots. I have even included all of the measurements that you will need for all of these layering papers!

Let’s wrap some white cording around the top of the center portion of our card and tie a pretty bow!

I really hope this card inspires you to give this card design a try!

Art Impressions “Cruise Control” Center Step Card

Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!

Let’s create a fun Center Step Card today using the wonderful images from the Ai Pack Your Bags (4932) stamp set. This set includes all of the images that you will need to create a great scene! It includes this adorable couple all decked out in their floral print shirts and enough bags for a long relaxing vacation!

I wanted to create some unique dimensions to accommodate the different sizes between the man and woman images. He is carrying a lot of bags…so I wanted the left side of the Step Card to be a bit wider and the right side to be a bit narrower. I will give you all of the dimensions and instructions to create this unique sized Center Step Card!

We will also create a beautiful sky using the Distress Oxide Ink Pads in Festive Berries, Abandoned Coral, and Mustard Seed. These three colors will make the perfect blend for our sky! For the ocean, we will be using the Peacock Feathers and Salty Ocean inks.

To create the dock for our vacationers, we will be using a 3D Embossing Folder which will create the look of woodgrain with lots of dimension!

These cards are so much fun to make….I hope you give it a try!!! This card would be great for a birthday, retirement, or a vacation celebration card!!!

This card was inspired by the current Ai Blog Challenge – Oceans of Fun! The challenge is to create a card with a fun water element…this can be anything you want including rain, ponds, oceans, puddles, or anything else you can come up with…just have fun!!! Please join in on this fun challenge by creating your own project or just by checking out all of the fun cards that your crafty peers have created!
