Favored Flowers SAB fun fold card with video


I hope you've had a wonderful Christmas weekend.  We sure did.  It was crazy busy trying to fit all of our annual activities into three days.  But we did it!  I sure love having my kids home for the holidays; we all look forward to it!

We have a few traditions; one is an appetizer show down. Each one of us makes an appetizer for Christmas eve and we vote on them.  We vote on taste AND presentation.  This year my granddaughter won with her Pizza Monkey Bread with marinara dipping sauce.  I came in second with Spanakopita.

    

The other fun thing we do is play Minute to Win It games.  We had a golf putting game, build the tallest snowman with marshmallows, Corn Hole, name the items in the stocking, moving mini marshmallows from one bow to another with a straw, filling a bowl with bows using a spatula blindfolded.  It's always a blast.  Funny story…. I always buy random presents for winners but totally forgot this year.  And I won!  Sheesh!

I shared this pretty card on last week's Facebook Live.  I'm not sure what this fold is called though!

The center panel lifts up.  It's 3 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  The center DSP is 3" X 4" and so is the inside white panel.  

The flowers on the front White oval are fussy cut from the designer paper. This beautiful paper is free with a $50 order starting January 5th during Sale-a-Bration.  

I used Blackberry Bliss card stock since it matches the designer paper so well.  

  • Card base 5 ½” X 4 1/4", 3 ¼” X 8 ½” scored at 4 1/4"
  • White inside & DSP 3" X 4", DSP side pieces are 1" X 4" and 1 1/4" X 4"

The greeting is from another Beautifully Happy stamp set; also a free choice during Sale-a-Bration.  It's a big 17 piece Photopolymer set that's free with a $100 order from January 5th – February 28th. 

Here's the video showing how to make this card and another snowflake version too:

  • Easy idea with your leftover paper strips with Artfully Layered


    I had a bunch of leftover Just Jade card stock strips I was determined to use. I believe it was from a fun fold card I offered in one of my kits to go. Luckily inspiration struck and I created this neat card for an online swap I participated in.  I love it! 

    I used the new bundle called Artfully Layered stamping the largest leaf multiple times in Just Jade ink.  The botanical images, dies and super fun greetings in this bundle were one of my top picks from the new 2022 Jan-June Stampin' Up! catalog.  You can see this bundle here. 

    Each of the strips are 1" X 3 1/4" and they are adhered to a White piece measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  I adhered them so they did not match up purposefully.  You could also stamp them as shown and place them onto the card in order.

    Simply add a greeting and a punch or die-cut.  I LOVE when I can use leftovers to create wonderful cards easily.  

    The greeting die-cut is from the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here.  They include circles, hexagons, a few odd shapes & triangles.  They're fun, modern & unique!

  • Swedish Stars in both Shimmer Vellum & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper with easy video tutorial


    Have you seen some of these fancy folded stars online and thought you could never make them?  Well this one is so much easier than it looks and I made them on a FB Live recently.  

    Honestly they are quite easy.  Basically you need a 6 X 6" piece of Designer paper – twelve 1/2" X 6" strips to create them.  I did add a medallion in the center but it's not necessary at all.  Here I used the brand new Simply Marbelous designer paper from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's available in 6 different colors and absolutely gorgeous!!

    I also made a few in our 2021-23 In Color Shimmer seen here & Gold Shimmer vellum seen here. I used snowflakes from the So Many Snowflakes dies in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

    You can see the video below; I share these beautiful Swedish stars as well as a two cards featuring a brand new stamp set; Calming Camellia!

  • Calming Camelia stamp set; a Sneak Peak of Sale-a-Bration 2022


    Here's a sneak peak of two of my favorite Sale-a-Bration choices. The Calming Camelia stamp set & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper.  I created a bunch of these for an online swap. 

    Isn't it pretty?  It's a distinktive type stamp which means you get multiple hues of color with one inking.  I just love the swirls and the greetings.  

    My colors are Bumblebee & Basic Gray.  I did heat emboss the greeting in White embossing powder and punched it out with the Tailored Tag punch; my favorite for greetings! 

    Sale-a-Bration starts on January 4th!  Are you ready for it?  

    If you do not have a Demonstrator and would like a catalog let me know.
