Beautiful Balloons ‘latch’ fun fold card; new products in the Annual Catalog


I've sure been enjoying playing with new products from the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  The Bright & Beautiful suite is one we could pre-order early as a Demonstrator. 

Here's one of my recent projects: 

I made it with my Flowerbug's Team on our monthly Zoom gathering. It was a mystery card designed by Candace. 

My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blueberry Bushel and white.   

I placed the top panel on the left edge of the front card fold, adding Dimensionals to just the very left edge.  It allows the right fold to 'latch' and hold the card closed.  Below is a photo showing how the right side 'catches' under the front panel. 

Measurements are: 

  • Card base 5 ½” X 7 ¼” scored at 4 ¼”
  • left panel 4 ¼” square score on one side at 1”
  • front panel 2 ½” X 3 ½”
  • Basic White 4” X 5 ¼”(inside)  & front is 2 ¼” X 3 ¼”
  • Portrait DSP 2 ¾” X 5 ¼”
  • Portrait DSP; same or different 3” X 4”  

 

All of these products are now available in the new Annual Catalog.  If you don't have a local demonstrator let me know; I'll send you one for just $5.  If you order from me online first I'll send it free!

  • How to use the Sophisticated Sled bundle with free project sheet


    We made this pretty card at my December card clubs.  It features the Sophisticated Sled bundle from our Online Exclusives line. 

    I chose White with Boho Blue as my color combination.  The sled is die-cut from the Country Woods DSP. I also used the Painted Trees embossing folder seen here.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the trees. 

    I used stamps from the bundle for the greetings & snowflakes. 

    Before I played with the dies I thought they would be difficult to assemble.  But they're a breeze!  I hope you watch the video below for my tips. The skates are genius!  The laces slip into a slit in the skate die-cut for easy assembly.  

    See this gorgeous bundle here. 

    Here's the free project sheet for this card. Click on the following link to print or download it. Download Sophisticated Sled Dec 24

    Below is the video tutorial for this project.  Plus check out the fun fold card using upcoming products too!

  • The Color Coach is back!


    If you struggle with coordinating colors the Color Coach can help.  It provides multiple ways to find the perfect combinations. 

    The Color Coach is Stampin' Up!'s version of the color wheel and is based on color theory—the combination of art and science that determines what colors look good together.

    One side of the Color Coach has all current Stampin’ Up! colors (except Neutrals) laid out with a spinning wheel in the center. This center wheel gives you monochromatic, complementary, analogous, and triadic information about our colors. The back explains each of these concepts, plus our range of neutral colors.

    It's $12.50 and can be seen here. 

    For example who would think Pretty Peacock and Pumpkin Pie would go together so well?  They're on the edge of complimentary colors but work wonderfully! 

    Below is a sample of an Analogous color combination.  SU created designer papers with shades of similar colors using our Full of Life DSP in the Annual Catalog. 

    Have a great weekend!

  • Adorable Card swaps featuring the Otterly Amazing suite


    Today I'm sharing swaps that feature the adorable Otterly Amazing suite from our recent release of Online Exclusives.  

    First is a card made by Kelly Acheson.

    The placement of her DSP is unique and leaves room for the cute swimming fish at the bottom.  She used the coordinating stamp & dies for her otter, coloring it with Blends markers.  Her colors include Crumb Cake and Early Espresso. 

    Next is a fun fold card by Tracy Jacobs.

    She made a cut on her card base and adhered the right side down which allowed the left side to open.  Her colors include Gray Granite with White.

    Measurements – card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2". At the bottom right cut to the score line at the 1" mark.  the DSP and inside White layer are 3" X 5 1/4".  The punch is the Modern Oval punch from the Annual Catalog. 

    Lastly we have a sweet card made by Julie Davison. 

    Her colors include Old Olive, Early Espresso, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral. She cut the otter from the Otterly Amazing DSP seen here.  Her circle punches and angled DSP add a bit of playfulness that matches up with the jumping otter. 

    See this suite here online.
