Casing my friend with Caring Leaves & video


Last week I was out of town to see my son get married in the beautiful Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming.  

The photographer was incredible; I have to share some of her early shots with you.  It was a quick trip but we were blessed to be there for the small ceremony. We had a wonderful time driving through the stunning park with the photographer scouting out photo opportunities.  We're thrilled to add Katrina to our family!

Today I'm sharing the swap card I made for our Team card swap this month:

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Beige & Very Vanilla.  Peacock is one of my favorite 'outside the box' colors for autumn projects. 

Two of my favorite types of stamps are 2-step and Distinktive and this set is both!  It's a sweet & simple set & it's just $17. See it here. 

When I was planning my card for the swap I came across the card on the left below.  It's one my friend Susie Wood made awhile ago. I loved the layout and cased it using the Caring Leaves set. 

Casing a favorite card or layout is my go to when designing a new project. It's fun to switch up colors and products while using the same design. 

I created a video that's posted below.  I stamped the outline leaves on the large Pretty Peacock layer before embossing it with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. I also stamped an extra leaf to fussy cut and add under the tag.  See the measurements below.

Measurements:

  • Basic Beige 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2"
  • Pretty Peacock 2 3/4" X 5 1/2", 2 3/4" X 4 
  • Pumpkin Pie 2 1/2" X 3 3/4", 4 1/4" X 1" strip
  • Very Vanilla 2 1/4" X 3 1/2" plus tag die-cut

Below is the video I shared along with card swaps from my Team.

  • Angled Gatefold card with easy latch closure; the Christmas version


    Here's the other set of Angled Gatefold cards I made on last week's Stamp with Me Live.  Every other Monday I show a fun or easy way to use your Designer Paper. Don't hoard it; use it!  Follow me on Facebook here. 

    Each card is held closed by the punch or die-cut on the left. Placing your dimensionals on the left edge of each allows you to slip the right card flap between the greeting and the left front flap of the card base.  Don't get it?  Watch the video below! 

    See how the left flap is under the greeting? 

    Here's the link to the video; or scroll down to watch it here. 

    The colors are traditional red & green – Real Red & Old Olive.  I stamped the left side with the tiny peppermint image using White Craft ink.

    This adorable designer paper is called Gingerbread & Peppermint. It's 6 X 6" and in our Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.  See it here. 

    Here are the templates; 



    And here's the video below; it's short & you'll find these cards quite easy to make!
