I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below
The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here. The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare. Then afterwards you can share your cards too!
I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it. I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here. You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.
I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle. That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set.
Measurements:
Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".
Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.
Cutting directions:
1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.
2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.
The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.
Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!
It includes directions, photos and measurements for 12 cards!

Regency Park with the Baby Wipe technique!
During March our Flowerbug's Team has been focusing on using re-inkers. I hadn't played with the 'baby wipe' technique for awhile. I chose the Regency Park suite when creating this cute card:
It might not show up well here but the White greeting die-cut is 'caught' and held in place by the larger die & the outer two corners of flowers. These dies fit together perfectly! *you can see the dies in the photo below; the bottom most label nestles into the largest one with flowers on two edges.
Here's the Sentimental Park bundle as well, with the greeting & die-cuts. This bundle was one of my first purchases from the Spring catalog and I've used it a lot!
The other bundle in this suite is the Petal Park bundle seen here. It includes the stamp set & coordinating flower punch. I used the solid flowers on the middle right for my baby wipe technique and added the outline flowers (top right) in Black.
What supplies do you need for the Baby Wipe technique?
A baby wipe or two
At least 2-3 colors of ink refills
A stamp and card stock
Success tips for the 'Baby Wipe' technique:
Choose colors that work well together. I tend to choose 3 of my favorites like yellows with pinks, blues with greens, purples with blues etc.
Pick a stamp with a solid image; lots of rubber. An outline image will not show your colors well.
Fold the moist baby wipe into an ink pad; I use at least 4 layers.
Drop multiple drops of each color in each area. For example – 4 drops of yellow, move over a bit, 4 more drops of yellow etc. Then fill with the second color in the same manner. Fill in any empty areas with the 3rd or last color.
When inking your image stamp it in your 'baby wipe' handmade ink pad multiple times, trying to keep it in the same place as much as possible. Moving the image around too much can muddy your colors.
Huff the image and stamp!
Here's the inside of my card; I added a few more of the multi-colored punched flowers.
Need a new Stampin’ Up! Catalog? Plus an accordion fun fold card with video & free project sheet!
It's an exciting time for those who love Stampin' Up! products….. the new 2023-24 Annual Catalog can be seen online tomorrow (Wednesday) by current Demonstrators.
We get to see the newest 2023-25 In Colors, which current colors are leaving, which colors are filling in our color lines (it usually includes some returning In Colors and some brand new colors)!
Wednesday I'll be announcing which colors are leaving along with the retiring list of the current/retiring Annual catalog products so you stay informed. Remember that these retiring items are while supplies last. Do NOT WAIT to order. I have many people who are disappointed that they missed ordering items they really, really wanted.
*If you do not have a current Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and want a new Annual Catalog let me know by Thursday, March 30th. They are free to my current customers (those who've ordered from me within the past 6 months) or just $5 for me to send you one. You can pay via PayPal or Venmo.

The last Monday of each month I have a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my Facebook page here. A day or so before the Live I share the project we're making so those who want to stamp along with me can do so. Others can watch and create later.
After the video I provide a post where everyone who makes the project can share their version. All who do are entered in a drawing for a free prize from me. Click hereto see all of the Floating Panel cards from February's Live.
This month I chose another fun fold card – an accordion card that really shows off both sides of your Designer Paper!
I added an inside White layer to stamp and sign on. I used Melon Mambo & Old Olive markers to ink the flower bud image before I stamped and die-cut it.
Growth Takes Time with Radiating Stitches dies; & free project sheet!
On last week's FB Live I shared three cards featuring the new Online Exclusive products. A few are already out of stock but they are ordering more. You can see them all here.
Today's project features two of them. Radiating Stitches dies and Growth Takes Time stamp set.
I stamped the tree and greeting (Charming Sentiments) using Night of Navy ink. I did not color in the tree; sometimes it's okay to keep it simple. The ribbon here is the Navy bordered ribbon in the Spring catalog; seen here. It's soft and easy to work with.
I used three of the Radiating Stitches dies on this card. See them here.
