There are tons of details & die-cuts on her card!  The Jungle Pals set & dies are both available through February 29th or while supplies last – they're free with a qualifying Stampin' Up! order. See them both here. 

  • The colors include Calypso Coral, Pebbled Path, Lost Lagoon, Soft Sea Foam and Shaded Spruce. 
  • The tree, leaves and toucan are all from the Jungle Pals dies. 
  • Her greeting is made with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch and a 1" strip of White card stock. The greeting image is from the Heartfelt Hello's set – also from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.

I love it when the inside is stamped to match the front!

Next is an adorable card made by Marla featuring the Sunny Days designer series paper seen here.

I asked her where she found her cute basket shape and she cased it from an old valentine card she received from her grandmother years ago. Isn't that cool?!!  

The greeting is from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set seen here.  She fussy cut the strawberries from the Sunny Days designer paper.  I just love this card!!

Next is a pretty card made by Karen G who featured the Flight & Airy designer paper seen here.  It's free with a $50 Stampin' Up! order through February 29th, or while supplies last.

She cased the layout from Tracey Bradley I believe.  Such a pretty and simple way to make this pretty designer paper the star! 

The greeting and textured background are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle is fussy cut.

FLIGHT & AIRY 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

The Flight & Airy designer series paper has been one of the most popular choices so far; I wonder how long it will last!

Lastly today is a card made by Karen A who also featured the Flight & Airy designer paper.

She simply cut a selection of the birds with the Deckled Circle dies and made it the focus by keeping the rest of her card white. The White layers are textured with the beautiful Layered Florals embossing folder seen here.  

It's a simple fun fold too!

  • Geometric fun with an Ombre’ effect; video tutorial too!

    I've been sharing ideas & techniques featuring the Plenty of Patterns masks from a recent FB Live video. 

    Today it's an Ombre' effect created with a grid mask, 4 colors of ink and Blending Brushes.

    The colors I used are from top to bottom: Pale Papaya, Calypso Coral, Polished Pink and Melon Mambo. I used our Blending Brushes to achieve this smooth blended look.  See them here. I love them; they're so worth investing in.  And the nice thing is that the ink can be rinsed out to use them in any color next time.

    I used the grid mask in the set of 4 seen below & here.

    I'm sure you noticed the hexagonal greeting die-cuts.  This is part of a new die-cut set called Beautiful Shapes dies coming out in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog.  And the Adhesive-Backed Hexagons coordinate wonderfully.  These embellishments come in a package of three colors – Black, Blushing Bride & Just Jade.

    I added a zig-zag of ribbon behind my greeting image; see my easy method in the video.

  • Fun with Plenty of Pattern masks with techniques & video too

    I hope you enjoyed your holiday weekend!  We sure did. The kids come home for Christmas from other cities in North Dakota and we have some fun traditions like an appetizer showdown, presents, lots & lots of games & yummy food.  My kids are still here so the fun continues another day yet! 

    ~~~

    Here is another card idea with the Plenty of Pattern masks I shared on last week's FB Live here. 

    This card features an ombre' effect on Vellum card stock using the Plenty of Patterns masks and a new bundle from the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog

    For the ombre' effect I used Night of Navy, Pacific Point, Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana inks along with Blending Brushes. You can see how it's done on the video here.

    I kept is super simple otherwise.  I layered the sponged vellum on a piece of White CS and added a greeting and leaf die-cut.

    You can see the Plenty of Pattern masks I used here.  They are so fun to play with; especially if you like sponging or techniques.

    The neat leaf die-cut is in the Artfully Layered bundle in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog as well as the greeting.

  • Gingerbread & Peppermint fun fold cards – easy to replicate!

    Merry Christmas!!  I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday.

    We made this neat card at my December Card Clubs. I love the double Z fold design. And it makes great use of both card stock and designer paper! 

    I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint bundle for the stamps & dies.  Unfortunately it's sold out already.  And so is the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper. Retiring Holiday Catalog time is so hard!  

    Frosted Gingerbread Dec Club Save

    But you can use this card layout with other designs and occasions.  One thing I love about this card is that the inside accordion piece is perfectly sized to get 4 out of an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock so it's great for mass producing.  

    Frosted Gingerbread Dec Club Save

    The colors are Real Red, White & Mossy Meadow.  

    Measurements: 

    • Red card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
      Mossy Meadow 2 3/4" X 8 1/4" scored every 2 3/4"
      DSP 2 1/2" X 4" for front, two squares at 2 1/2"
      White 2 1/2" for inside greeting, scrap for die-cut label
