A Pretty Nests of Winter Diagonal fold card from the upcoming Holiday catalog


Release of Close to My Heart products today! 

If you didn't realize it, Stampin' Up! purchased product from Close to My Heart Earlier this year and have taken on any CTMH Makers that wanted to continue promoting stamping & scrapbooking products.  In the future we will be offering a larger line of Scrapbooking products!  This is great news for scrappers! Super Exciting!! 

Before we get to today's project, I wanted you to be aware of some new products in the Online Store today. These items includes former Close to My Heart products that have only been available to CTMH customers until today. Know that these items will likely sell out fast as there isn't a large quantity of products.  

See it all here. 

And now for some stamping projects – I love everything about this card!  

It features a brand new suite called Nests of Winter which is seen in the upcoming 2024 Holiday catalog. We made it at a team meeting a few months ago and I shared it and two other cards on last week's Live video. 

The birds & branch are from the Nests of Winter designer paper, as well as the birch paper too.  So pretty!  My large circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies which are currently unavailable (for the umpteenth time!).

It's almost a fun fold;  it's basically a standard Pool Party card that has the front panel cut off on the diagonal.  The designer paper starts out at 4" X 5 1/4" and is cut on the diagonal for 2 cards. Tip – make sure you cut it at the right angle – from bottom right to upper left.  (I did it wrong and wasted a piece) 

Here's the inside view: 

This die-cut circle is from the Deckled Circle dies seen here. They're available only in the Online store right now. 

Below is the video for other projects in this suite as well as sneak peaks of all of the upcoming 2024 Holiday Catalog designer papers!

  • Jar of Flowers Double Flap Fun-fold card with video!


    The Jar of Flowers bundle is pretty neat and easy to create wonderful cards with.  We made these cards at my June card clubs.  It was sooo great getting together with my gals again. North Dakota is open to events again but we are still being cautious too.  

    You can really see the details on the card in this close up view.  That neat texture is the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  The colors are Misty Moonlight with Bumblebee and the In Good Taste designer paper. 

    There are sooo many wood, texture and patterns in this big pack of In Good Taste paper.  It is amazing!  Here's a good view of this paper.  

    Here's another version of the card using the jar and water image but the flowers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set.  This card was for those who didn't want to color. We added punched flowers using the Confetti Flowers Border punch seen here.  After punching we added a dot of Navy ink for the centers. 

    For this fold all I did was trim off an inch from the card front and add a flap that is hidden by the strip of In Good Taste DSP.  This flap is what the front panel is adhered to. Watch the video below! 

    The cards are finished off with a greeting from the Lovely You bundle – this is one of my favorite bundles!  I love the Pick a Punch and the Lovely You stamp set is full of wonderful greetings. 

     

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card 5 1/2" X 7 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      In Good Taste DSP 1" X 5 1/2"

      Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 4 3/8", flap is 1 3/4" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"

  • Blossoms in Bloom; puzzling it together?


    Here's an incredible card featuring the Blossoms in Bloom bundle made by my Flowerbug's team member Jacki for a new catalog card swap.

    I just love these colors together; Just Jade and Misty Moonlight.  

    Can you tell that she stamped the large floral image on her White CS using Misty Moonlight?  Then she added die-cut layers in White, Misty Moonlight and Just Jade.  Yes; she cut out three dies for each card and puzzle fit them over the stamped image!!!  Amazing, but stunning!

    I believe she cased this card from Pinterest; made by Mary Detherage.

  • Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!


    Marilyn made this pretty card with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here) for one of our latest Flowerbug's Team swaps.  I believe she found the idea on Pinterest.  I love how it features 4 of our new In Colors! 

    The card base is Bumblebee.  She added Black card stock and ink to pull the colors together.  Here is a tip: stamp the sunflower on 4 different colored squares and then cut them into smaller squares.  You'll get enough stamped pieces for 4 cards!

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White – 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Black 3 3/4" square
    • Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblee – 3 1/2" squares for stamping. Then cut into 1 3/4" squares to puzzle piece on each card.
