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”

    Today I'm sharing the 2nd group of cards Candace made featuring the Gone Fishing suite.  If you missed the first batch, click here to see them.  

    GONE FISHING BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    She was our Artist of the Month for June and chose this special bundle; so unique and perfect for the fishermen (and fisherwomen!).  See the Gone Fishing bundle here. 

    This first card is filled with layers and details – well all of them are really!  

    Gone Fishing 2 Save

    The colors include Misty Moonlight, Petal Pink and Pebbled Path.  She added Wink of Stella to the fish, and bobbin.  That fish is gorgeous. I love the wavy cut DSP at the top and her sponged sky.  And did you notice the rhinestone 'bubbles'?  

    Below is the inside of this card; she always adds details to her card inside layer. 

    Gone fishing 2a Save

    Next is a fun fold card where the center panel lifts up.  It's adhered to a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" layer. 

    Gone Fishing 5 Save

    Her colors include Pebbled Path and Misty Moonlight with a bit of Vanilla and Boho Blue. 

    The folded panel is 3" wide X 8" tall and scored at 4". The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" in the back and the front panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"

    Next is a neat card featuring the Spiral Dye. She stamped it twice; once in Pool Party and once in Lost Lagoon.  

    Gone Fishing tie dye Save

    The Stitched die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes dies. Notice that shiny paper banner?  That is the new Holographic Trio specialty paper on page 127 of the Annual Catalog.  

    I'll share more of her amazing projects tomorrow.  Don't miss the next set!

  • Amazing Let’s Go Fishing projects by Candace, our Artist of the month

    I hope you're enjoying the 4th of July today.  We celebrated yesterday and today is a quiet day to catch up on things around the house.

    I am excited to show you these projects!  Candace was our Artist of the Month and chose to use the Gone Fishing bundle seen here.  The dies are currently unavailable but should be back in stock any day now. 

    I will share her projects this week, through Friday. 

    Here's the first card; it's a special fun fold card with a greeting on a flap. The flap is secured under the DSP strip on the right inside of the card.  

    Gone Fishing 3 Save

    I love the added fish and wavy trim she added. Her colors include Calypso Coral, Mossy Meadow and Vanilla.  

    Measurements:

    • Mossy Meadow card base 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", strip for flap 4" X 1" scored at 1", circle is 3 1/2" 
    • Let's Go Fishing DSP 2 3/4" X 5" & 1 1/4" X 5 1/2" inside
    • Calypso Coral 3" X 5 1/4"
    • Vanilla inside 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", circle 2 1/8" 

    Gone Fishing 3a Save

    This next card shows off the amazing Gone Fishing dies that are included in the bundle.  Look at the many details – lures & bobbins galore all in the fabulous large frame die-cut that mimics a tackle box. 

    Gone Fishing 4 Save

    The colors include Boho Blue, Smoky Slate, Misty Moonlight, Real Red, White and a bit of Calypso Coral and Lemon Lime Twist. 

    She even added inside stripes using designer paper and card stock, perfect for guys. 

    Gone Fishing 4a Save

    You can see the Gone Fishing bundle here. 

    GONE FISHING BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Next is a fun 'inchie' style card.  She cut out 12 squares of the Let's Go Fishing designer paper seen here and added them to a Misty Moonlight layer. 

    Gone Fishing 6 Save

    The squares of designer paper are 1 1/4" each. The Boho Blue layer is 5 1/4" X 4".  She used the Stylish Shapes dies for her greeting.  Love the frayed Natural Wavy trim on the greeting. 

    Here's what she did with the inside. 

    Gone Fishing 6a Save

    Below you can see all of her incredible projects. There's such a variety and I'll share details on each fabulous card in the next few days.

    I'll share more of her amazing projects Thursday.  Stop back in!
