Have you ever made a double Z-fold card?  They look difficult but honestly they are quite simple!  I shared how in last week's video tutorial. I also have a free printable project sheet for you!

I featured the new Meandering Meadows 6" designer series paper from the Online Exclusives. It's stunning with 12 different watercolor scenes!  

I love how the printed strip on the bottom has the colorful stream; it matches the DSP on the card perfectly!  I sure do love this new paper!  I will be featuring it in a December card kit to go. And these cards may be included! 

At first I was going to leave it quite simple on the left front, then I thought of the Bough punch and tried that.  I liked it so I added it to both cards which you can see below.

I used Balmy Blue for both card layers and added Garden Green and a bit of Highland Heather with the punches. 

It's hard to tell but I used two different sheets of this pretty designer paper here.  One for the left two panels and another for the large one on the right. Then I was able to trim the bottom DSP layer off and use it for the 1" strips on the bottom layers. A perfect match! 

You can see a glimpse of each sheet in the photo below.  It's 6 X 6" in size and filled with watercolor scenes. This type of designer paper allows you to let the pretty scenes do the work for you. Click here to see it.

  • Easy Diagonal cards; Stamp With Me tonight at 7:30 pm!


    This week I'm highlighting some of the cards I've recently made on Facebook Live.  With two a week there's a lot! 

    Here are the cards for tonight's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' here. 

    I chose the pretty Misty Moonlight & Seaside Spray combination for these cards.  I love the two toned look of these In Colors together.  When you add White for a pop of brightness they really shine!  

    Join me here tomorrow night.  Prep the pieces, gather some supplies and we'll stamp together! 

    I used the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set seen here in Misty Moonlight, White & Seaside Spray.

  • Prized Peony bundle; wow!


    Look at these gorgeous cards Mary and Karen made for a Flowerbug's Team swap last month.  They both used items in the new Peony suite seen here. 

    Mary's colors are Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam with Gray Granite.  She sponged a bit of Petal Pink onto the Peony petals.  The other products here are the new Vellum square doilies and Elegant Faceted Gems. that designer paper is from the In Good Taste package seen here. 

    Karen used the Peony Garden designer paper as a background and the new Magenta Madness card stock with Pear Pizzazz & Old Olive for leaves.  That pretty scalloped edge is included in the Peony dies.  

    You might think it's difficult to put the peony flower together, but Stampin' Up! made it super easy.  It's just 4 die-cuts and they layer easily.  You match up the bottom edge of each die-cut for a perfect fit each time.  I made a video of it here on FB.

    See the whole Prized Peony Bundle here.
