April 8, 2022

I love this card layout! It is an easy way to show off a peak of your pretty designer paper! I'm calling it a Diagonal Split card.

I created this during a Facebook Live on Tuesday. Every week at 11 am CT I share a few projects to inspire YOU to stamp. Follow me here on Facebook. Click here to watch the video; there are three projects!

The card base is Gray Granite with white & gold accents. I used the Crane of Fortune bundle seen here. This bundle is NOT coming back in the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog; it will retire at the end of June.

Here are the measurements so you can try your hand at this card layout.

I shared quite a few helpful tips on using these masks in the video here. Using them with our Blending Brushes truly makes you feel like an artist! You get the multi-colored & layered effect so easily.

The greetings here are from the Unbounded Love stamp set. My colors include Fresh Freesia, Black, Lemon Lime Twist and Balmy Blue.

Textured Notes & Botanical Textures fun fold card with video tutorial

April 14, 2025

I shared this fun fold card on last week's video. We also made it at my Team meeting in March.

Save

The back of the card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" but the center is an accordion style fold that shows off your designer paper.

I used the Dashing Designs embossing folder on the Azure Afternoon layer – it's on the Last Chance list here.

The stamp set is the Textured Notes and the DSP is the Botanical Textures. If you follow me you'll realize I cannot get enough of both of these products!

Here's the view with the card opened:

New Catalog sneak peak inspired by a fun sketch

April 10, 2025

Today I'm sharing a sneak peek of new products from the upcoming 2025 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!

Save

I chose the Florals in Bloom designer paper and the Impressions Abloom stamp set plus new gems too! My colors include Petunia Pop and Secret Sea plus white.

This layout was inspired by the following sketch. I absolutely love using sketches for my inspiration. I knew I wanted to feature the DSP but wasn't sure of my plan. This sketch fit the bill perfectly!

I made another pretty card that's totally different with this same sketch. See it here.

Save

As you can see I did not follow it exactly. My DSP measures 2 3/4" X 4" and 2 1/4" X 3". The diagonal layer (secret sea) is 1 1/8" wide.

The stamped greetings are from the 'The Right Words' stamp set. One of my new favorite greeting sets. You're going to love it!

Save

I'll share another card featuring new products tomorrow.
