  • Three pretty swap cards with great layouts

    Our Team swap theme was nature or animals this month. I’m sharing three pretty cards I think you’ll want to case.

    First is a card made by Jonna who is featuring the Nature’s Symphony suite.

    Save

    She used the Nature’s Symphony stamp set and the Nature’s Walk designer paper here. I love the layout so much! Adding your greeting strip across the front is a fantastic way to break up the large layers.
    Her colors include Pretty Peacock and White.

    Measurements are as follows:

    – Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Pretty Peacock large layer 5 3/8″ X 4 3/8″, small layer 3″ X 4 1/4″, strip 4 1/8″ X 1″, inside is 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
    – White 2 3/4″ X 4″, inside 4″ X 5 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 5 1/4″

    Save

    Inks used: Pretty Peacock and White Craft ink.

    The next card is made by Tracey who used a new to me’ tearing technique on her pretty card:

    Save

    She used the Floral Charm designer paper. Actually it’s just one sheet and measured 3″ X 4″ before she tore it. The technique she used is called ‘Rip & Flip’. You tear the lower half off and flip it to reveal the other side. Slide the torn piece under the upper portion to hide the ‘cut’ side. So cool!

    Look at the ribbon above the greeting circle. She formed loops of Berry Burst 1/4″ shiny ribbon and adhered it underneath the flowers and greeting. So smart and unique!
    The colored and die-cut flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora bundle seen here.

    Measurements:

    – Pretty Peacock card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    – Berry Burst 4 1/4″ X 3 1/4″
    – DSP 4″ X 3″
    – White circle die-cut

    Lastly is Candy’s card featuring the Nature’s Symphony stamp set with a neat technique:

    Save

    She cased this technique from Kim Quade. She created a window with the Stylish Shapes dies and another piece of paper. She used Blending Brushes inside the window for the soft, multicolored look and stamped the leaves before removing her mask.

    Her ink colors include Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Fresh Freesia. She stamped the images with Secret Sea. Beautifully done!

    I’ll share more swap cards tomorrow.

  • New Catalog Open House & BOGO is Saturday! NEW product shares are up!

    I hold an Open House event with each new catalog release by Stampin’ Up! It’s a wonderful time to gather my friends and customers together and to get the new catalog in their hands. They’re always excited about these because I make a BIG DEAL over the event.

    I love to show off our new products with displays and samples. I gather door prizes, free cards to give with orders, door prizes and an array of yummy food.

    Save

    It’s Saturday at my home studio from 11:30 – 1:30 pm and will include a BOGO this time.

    It shocks most people when they hear this, but I do not keep any of my Stampin’ Up! products from year to year. I just don’t have time to use it. So I price my retired products and put them in my garage for the sale. For each dollar you spend on my retired products you can pick out NEW items for free! Basically they are getting either one for FREE. It’s a wonderful deal for them and I can clear out my stash to make room for more. Win, win!!

    If you’re near me in Minot, ND I hope you’ll come to the event. Even though I hold multiple card clubs each month I have lots of customers I only see a few times a year. It’s so neat to watch my gals gather together & catch up. I love it!

    I’m also offering my Designer Paper and Embellishment shares to locals and long distance customers!

    I know many who like to get a sampling of everything so they know what they want to order more of. It’s a great way to go. There’s nothing like seeing the new products in person!

    Save

    Reserve your DSP share here. It includes 65 sheets of 12 different papers from the 2026 May-August catalog; all in 6 X 6″ size. You can double your share and get all but one in 6″ X 12″ size. Click here to reserve a double share.

    – if products become unavailable I may wait to ship the share until all are available.
    – This share includes a printed list of card stock/paper colors in each designer paper.
    – it does include 6 specialty papers. It does not include the Luxe White or Everyday Essentials Mix & Match DSP.

    Here are the details on my new Embellishment share:

    Save

    There are 8 different gems included in this share. You’ll receive a portion of each with a total of 186 different embellishments! All are shown above except the Loose Anchor trinkets. There will be 3 of those included in the share.

  • A set of fun fold cards with NEW designer paper! Free project sheet & video too

    Yesterday I shared one of these fun fold cards and today I’ll share the other two. All feature the brand new Artisan Sketched Garden designer paper. It’s coming out on May 5th in the May-August catalog from Stampin’ Up!

    Save

    I shared the top card yesterday and today I’ll share the lower two.

    First is this SUPER easy fun fold card. It’s a great way to use your DSP up. The front layer is 3″ X 4″; perfect for 12 X 12″ DSP.

    Save

    I chose to use two of the retiring 2024-26 In Colors for this one. Summer Splash and Pretty in Pink with Black & White. This Artisan Sketched Garden DSP is all Black & White but I colored the flowers and leaves in with Blends markers. The greeting image is from the Greetings for all Ephemera pack seen here. It’s one of my very favorite greeting packs and it’s carrying over too! The Black punched piece is from the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. Sadly it just retired and is not out of stock.

    Save

    The inside White layer hides the end of the scored Pink flap. It’s a really neat and simple fun fold card. Click here to access the free project sheet.

    And here is the last card in this trio of fun fold cards featuring the new Artistic Sketched Garden DSP. It’s another side flap card:

    Save

    My colors include Lemon Lime Twist, Blueberry Bushel with White. The scored side flap flips to the right and has the diagonal squares with the greetings attached. The greeting is part of the Greetings for All Ephemera pack again; added to the Labeled with Love punched piece. This is retiring now and available here while supplies last.

    Here’s how it opens:
