Boughs of Holly Suite projects; with a special fun fold you’ll be amazed at!

October 31, 2022

I think everyone is loving the Boughs of Holly suite seen here; the paper is stunning and the Leaves of Holly bundle is incredible as well!

These are the last swap cards from our Christmas swap with my Flowerbug's Team. I hope you've enjoyed their amazing & creative projects. *Scroll back to see them all.

Marilyn made this pretty card:

Her colors include Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler with White. She stamped a few spatters on the designer paper before texturing it with the Gingham embossing folder before adding the die-cut greeting and leaves. This greeting die-cut with the attached holly leaves is so pretty & unique.

Measurements: Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", DSP is 4 1/2" X 3 1/4", the Cherry Cobbler layer is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"

Here's a photo of the entire Boughs of Holly suite:

Next up is an amazing card by Paula. She made a vertical Pillar card. I've never seen one before.

The way she attached the mini envelope across the front 'bridge' is so neat. Here are the directions she shared with me:

The dimensions are:

8-1/2 x 5-1/2 cardstock in Evening Evergreen
On 8-1/2 side score down 1/4, 1, 1-3/4, 2-1/2 6, 6-3/4, 7-1/2 and 8-1/4.
Banish all score lines toward the center
DSP strips are 5/8" X 5 1/4" and the center DSP is 1 3/4" X 5 1/4", the bridge piece across is 5/8" X 3 3/8"

It folds flat to fit in a A2 size envelope.

Save

Products used include the Mini Pocket Envelope die, the tag was Tailor Made tags and the Rectangular Postage Stamp punch for the greeting. She also added the Flat Jingle Bells on page 27 of the Holiday catalog and the Wintry 3D embossing folder for the texture on the pocket.

The tag pulls out of the pocket for even more interest.

So creative and unique!

Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

May 15, 2023

This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not!
Save

Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog. It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors. Love this paper!

Save

If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.

I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake. Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer. So cool!

And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

Have you made a ‘Book-binding Easel’ card yet? It’s so neat!

May 12, 2023
This cool card is made like a traditional book binding fold but turned into an easel card too!

Save

I used Berry Burst & Misty Moonlight or Blueberry Bushel for my layers. That cute tag on the front is from the Beautiful Balloons dies. The stars that hold up the easel are die-cuts from the same dies. You need to add a Dimensional on one of them. Watch the video here or scroll down.

I stamped the inside with the banner in multiple colors, some stamped off.

Here's what the card looks when it's flat:

Beautiful Balloons with Bright & Beautiful designer series paper

May 11, 2023
I've been playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle and thought making my own background with the balloon images would be cool.

Save
I chose a few of our newest colors to compliment the Bright & Beautiful designer series paper seen here. My colors are Bubble Bath, Lemon Lime Twist and Boho Blue. I love that the images appear somewhat translucent like real balloons.

Save

*I'll be featuring this fun designer paper in next month's card kit to go.

It's an easy fun fold card too. I stamped the greeting on a stamped large balloon and die-cut it with one of the dies in the bundle.

Measurements:
- Bubble Bath card stock is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" & scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
- designer paper is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
- White 3 1/4" X 4 1/2"
- Black 3 3/8" X 4 5/8"
I had fun stamping the inside (3 1/2" X 4 3/4") with the balloon string and confetti images.
