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: 

Beautiful Balloons mystery 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.

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.

  • Card base 5 ½” X 7 ¼” scored at 4 ¼”
  • left panel 4 ¼” square score on one side at 1”

  • NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

    I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them. 

    Everyday Details swap Save

    It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th.  The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White. 

    There's a few special details I'd like to point out:

    1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
    2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 
    3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here.  You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.

    Here's a close-up of this technique.

    I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

  • Translucent Florals card made with colored vellum

    I created this pretty card with the Translucent Florals bundle.  I used our vellum card stock and changed it from opaque to Fresh Freesia. 

    Translucent Florals card Save

    It's really easy to do.  Here's how:

    1. I cut a good size piece of vellum from the main sheet and laid it onto my grid paper.
    2. Then I pressed my open ink pad onto the card stock until it was covered.
    3. To smooth the ink out use sponges or a blending brush. Let dry or heat set before die-cutting. 
    4. Die-cut the flowers, leaves and white centers

    Products & measurements:

    • Translucent Floral bundle
    • White card stock – card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score & fold at 4 1/4"
    • Painted Texture embossing folder – white is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    • Fresh Freesia card stock 3 7/8" X 4 7/8"
    • Granny Apple Green 4 1/4" X 1" strip 
    • Vellum card stock – a large piece colored with Fresh Freesia ink and a small piece with Granny Apple Green ink
    • Blending Brushes 

    Here's a photo of this pretty bundle. See it here.
