Amazing Side-step Vertical Easel card with Waves of the Ocean suite

March 23, 2022

We made this remarkable fun fold card at my March card clubs. It features the Waves of the Ocean suite seen here.

Dies featured here:

The Dandy Wishes dies in the Garden Wishes bundle is 20% off right now. You can see that here. I just love the die-cuts and greetings in it. *I wonder if this will be on the retiring list tomorrow…..
The 'Thanks' and 'Amazing' dies are from the Amazing Thanks dies in the 2022 Jan-June catalog. You can see them here. I love the double layering you get with them!!

This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" when finished and lays flat for mailing but stands up beautifully for display.

Save

You can see how this is assembled in the video below. I also list the measurements below too.

The card includes two white panels; one for the middle and one for the back. We stamped the wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set using Pacific Point ink on the middle layer. We added some Bermuda Bay ink on the wave using a Blending Brush. We also added a soft bit of Pacific Point for the sky.

Save

Some left the back empty so they could add a greeting later; depending on what they needed at the time.

As you can see below the gorgeous Waves of the Ocean designer paper includes a variety of 'paint poured' designs & colors. I wanted it to be the main feature of the card and this fun fold made it happen! This designer paper is available through May 1st or while supplies last. This pretty paper, the foil and Waves rhinestones will not be in the new Annual catalog.

Everyone who orders the Waves of the Ocean suite collection from me will receive my exclusive PDF & video for 11 beautiful projects!

I used the Dandy Wishes dies for the 'flower heads'. For the right card below I trimmed off a few of the side pieces to create a smaller flower head.

More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!

August 18, 2022
Every month our Flowerbug's Team has an optional card swap and I always think it's the best group of cards ever. Then another month comes and they get even better! How is it possible?!

This first card today features the Brightest Beauty bundle seen here. It's in our Holiday catalog and has been on my wish list for awhile. I think she pushed me over the edge with her card!

Save

Her colors include Old Olive & Crushed Curry with White. I LOVE the frame she made with the Fabulous Frames dies! The rest of the dies are from the Brightest Beauty bundle. That stamped background behind the frame and the main image are wonderful together. The plain white behind the pretty flower & leaves really show the stamped image off. And that greeting die!

Next is an amazing card made by Candace. She is the expert at sponging backgrounds. Always so smooth and blended.

Who would think of adding a Hippo to Snowflakes?!! But it works perfectly.

Save

Details:
- Colors include Gorgeous Grape, White, Highland Heather & Pacific Point
- The Hippo is from the Hippest Hippos stamp set & dies from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.
- The snowflake frame is from the Snowman dies & the Red & White glimmer paper
- The embossing folder is from the Wintry duo in the Annual catalog
- She achieved her beautiful background by using Blending Brushes.
- The pretty 'iridescent' snowflake is from our Wonderful Snowflakes seen here
- She printed the greetings on White card stock using her printer!

Next is a simple yet beautiful card made by Annette. She let the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder take the prime spot on her card. This folder comes in a bundle with dies seen here.

Save

Her colors are Old Olive with Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the Color & Contour bundle. The offset circles add a playful touch.

Come back for more incredible swap cards tomorrow!

Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements

August 16, 2022
Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.

Save

I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips. I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS.

I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.

I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card. See the Rings of Love DSP here.

Save

Measurements:
- Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
- White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
- Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
- Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”
