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: 

Save

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.   

Save

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. 

Save

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”  

Save

 

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!  

Remember that my new catalog designer paper share is still open for a limited time.  Get 80 sheets of 6 X 6" DSP – all from the new catalog for just $28.50 plus shipping.  Reserve your spot here.

• Awesome Dance with Me fun fold card

  January 22, 2025

  ---

  Look at this gorgeous fun fold card Karen made for our Sale-a-Bration Team swap this month!

  Save

  She used the Dance with Me stamp set and the Floral Delight designer paper.  I love the spotlight technique she did too!  You can see an example of it in the SAB catalog here.  This neat spotlight technique is done with masking paper and a blending brush. It's so easy! 

  This set is free through February with any $60 purchase.

  Her colors include Pool Party, White & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Stylish Shapes dies to create her window fun fold effect.  The greeting is from the Day to Celebrate stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration.

  Save

  I plan to create this fun fold next month but in the meantime here are her measurements:

  • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
  • White inside 8" X 5 " scored at 2", 3 1/2" & 5 1/2"
  • DSP front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside 1 1/4" X 4 3/4"
  • large circle die-cut is 3", white for the dancing couple is 2 1/2"

  Save

  I love this card!  Thanks for doing an awesome job Karen!

• Opt in for my Card stock shares

  January 21, 2025

  I have cardstock share's happening this month. We used to have these in the mini catalogs but they stopped offering them so I now offer them to my customers on occasion.  

  Save

  Here's how it works.  Instead of getting 24 sheets of 1 color in a package (like the catalog offers), I provide 6 sheets each of 4 different colors. It's a great way to get a nice sampling of our card stock.

  These colors coordinate with the new Designer Papers in the Spring catalog. 

  1. Wildflower Birthday – 6 sheets each of Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam

  2. Floral Delight – 6 sheets each of Daffodil Delight, Pecan Pie, Lemon Lolly & Old Olive

  3. Beautiful Bokeh – 6 sheets each of Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral

  4. Friends of the Ocean – 6 sheets each of Pumpkin Pie, Summer Splash, Melon Mambo & Lemon Lime Twist

  5. Storybook Moments – 6 sheets each of Mossy Meadow, Boho Blue, Basic Beige & Pebbled Path

  6. Timeless Plaid – 6 sheets each of Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Calypso Coral & Wild Wheat

  *If you'd like any of these let me know.  I'll figure postage once you tell me how many shares you'd like and provide your zip code as well.  Email me here for a quote. 

  These shares will be offered for just a few weeks; so contact me soon.
