2 more great card ideas with the Basic Border dies!


Before you get to the projects today I want to let everyone know about the current shipping delays. Stampin' Up! had their highest sales day ever on April 4th – by almost 20 times the average!  Wow!  They are quite behind and have added extra staff and longer hours to get caught up.  So if you're wondering where your order is, it's coming….it will just be about 8-10 days longer than normal.

This week I'm sharing our April card swaps from my Flowerbug's team. It's so fun to see what they make; everyone has their own unique style.  I LOVE swapping with them!  

Annette chose the Beside Me stamp set for her card. She is a master at coloring and sponging.  

Her colors include Blueberry Bushel, Basic White & Black. The Blueberry Bushel layer is textured with the Timeworn Type folder; the greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

She cut two curves for her card; one with the Basic White layer and another with a Black layer.  She colored the image in with Blends markers.

Next is a neat card made by Karen who also used the Basic Border dies seen here.  

She used the die to cut off the edge of her card and then used that second piece to create a 'vertical window' for her By the Bay specialty designer paper. This pretty paper is discounted on the Last Chance List.  See it here. 

Her greeting and die-cut layers are from the Something Fancy bundle in the Spring catalog.  It will be in the new Annual catalog but no longer as a bundle at 10% off. 

See the Basic Border dies here:  I love these dies; they're so versatile.  Luckily they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

  • How to make an Easy Fun Fold Window card with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Paper


    This is one of the card folds I demonstrated on last week's FB Live where I featured the Daffodil Daydream bundle along with the coordinating Daffodil Afternoon DSP.  

    I love how our products coordinate so wonderfully.  This Daffodil Afternoon DSP is part of our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  This promotion ends on February 28th. See all of the free products here.  

    For the greetings I used the Special Moments stamp set; also in our 2022 Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's a big set of 21 images and it's free with a $100 order through February.  

    The cards look like a simple window card from the front; before you open it.  I used the Layering Circles dies, cutting through both the DSP and card base for the window.  

    The front of these cards both use the same Designer Paper; you can get a totally different look depending on which sheet you choose. The cute layered butterflies are from the Daffodil dies. 

    This is how the card looks when you open it.  It's a simple double fold that the circles are easily added to.  Just close the card and add them 'through' the window onto the inside layer. 

    Below is the video.  This card is the second project I share.  If you like fun fold cards be sure to catch the last one; it's a wonderful accordion style card!

  • Happy Valentine’s Day! Do you have a favorite??


    Happy Valentine's Day!  

    I shared this on FB last night and hoped you would to pick a favorite too!  I'm curious what the top pink Stampin' Up! color is….

    I have a ton of Valentine's swaps I want to share with you too.  Most of these are made by my stamping friends. I cannot give credit to all of them as their post-it or business card was lost as my local customers browsed through them.  

    My friend Susie Wood made this adorable Hello Ladybug card.  She used the Checks & Dots embossing folder on the Red layer. 

    This next one features the Nuts & Bolts stamp set & is made by Julie Davison.  

    This cute card lost it's post-it so I cannot give credit.  I love how the panels are cut apart but the Sweet Talk designer paper still shows it's pattern.  

    This next card was made by Jodi Reinert and features the Love & Happiness bundle seen here.  Love the textures! 

    This next card is so cute!!  It was also made by my friend Susie Wood. I love the chalkboard effect of stamping on Black with White Craft ink.  Nuts & Bolts is the stamp set & the Gingham embossing folder was used on the background. 

    Lastly is a sweet card made by Jennifer Cotton.  She used the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Sweet Conversations stamp set.
