Floating Panel card with video – so cool but incredibly easy!


On a recent FB Live class we made Floating Panel cards like this one made with the Best Day stamp set from the January-April catalog. Click here to see the cute Best Day stamp set.

See how the card front is folded in half but the panel is straight?  There's a neat, easy way to do that by adding two little pieces of card stock.  Each strip is folded in half and positioned on both the top panel and the card base.  See the other photo below to understand it.  Or watch the video here. 


I also used the Dandy Designs designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  Sadly that is now over; it ended February 28th.  

My colors on the card above are Black, Mango Melody & Polished Pink.  I used Blends markers to color the cat image.  I added Wink of Stella for some shimmer as well.  

Floating Panel measurements:

  • card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
  • DSP 2 pieces at 2" X 5 1/4"
  • White scalloped (Scalloped Contours die) die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
  • CS layer is 2 5/8" X 3 7/8"
  • two strips 1/2" X 1 3/4" for floating mechanism 

I used the Best Day stamp set here; it's adorable with lots of birthday images and greetings.  It's in the Jan-June catalog and you can see it here. 

You can see how the two folded strips are added to the front center fold below: 

I stamped the inside with images from the Best Day stamp set, adding some colored rhinestones to help the card stay open and in place.  Honestly a die-cut or punch would work better than a rhinestone.

  • Two gorgeous cards with the Two-Tone Floral bundle with video


    Here are a few more of the cards I shared in last week's FB Live that featured the Two-Tone Floral suite seen here. Click here to watch the video.  

    This first card shows off the large, gorgeous detailed die in the Two-Tone Floral dies.  Can you see the shimmery paper under it?  

    That pretty Gold paper is part of the Fine Shimmer Specialty paper in the Spring catalog.  It has 2 each of 3 colors including Gold, Soft Succulent & Fresh Freesia.  See it here.  

    I stamped a few flowers and leaves from the bundle and die-cut them out with the coordinating dies.  Then I added a 1" strip of Soft Succulent to anchor the flowers and the die-cut greeting onto.  The greeting is from the Framed Florets stamp set.  

    Below is a photo of the bundle; it's a 2-step stamp set which means there are two images that match and are meant to be stamped over each other.  One is a solid image and the other is a detailed image.  You can stamp both with the same ink, the solid in a lighter hue (stamp off once first) and the detailed image over it without stamping off.

    Some people stamp the solid image first and add the detailed over it.  I found it easier to stamp the detailed first as it's a darker ink and more difficult to see through.  Try it both ways to see what works for you.  

    This pretty bundle qualifies you to receive a free Sale-a-Bration choice if purchased during February. See all of the choices here. 

    Next is a gorgeous card featuring this same bundle but also adding in the Fancy Flora DSP. See it here The patterns remind me of palette painting and the color combos are amazing!  The Stampin' Up! artists are incredibly talented. 

    I added a bit of the new Navy Bordered ribbon from the Spring catalog and a stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies.  These dies are so popular they cannot keep them in stock.  They are currently in low inventory 'again'!

  • In the Country with a split scene technique


    They've updated the Clearance Rack with more products!  Including stamp sets!  But beware that many are in French.  Be sure you get English if you want it. See it all here.


    I made this pretty card using the In the Country stamp set from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's called a Triptych layout. It's a great way to showcase a detailed stamp set.  


    I stamped the image in Black Memento ink using the Stamparatus and colored the image in with our Watercolor Pencils. 

    One thing I always use with our Watercolor Pencils is the Blender pen.  It smooths out all of your penciled lines so easily. See it here. 

    The card base is Coastal Cabana and I added a Black layer and a simple Black strip across and under it. Simple but it sure shows off the pretty scene. 

    You can see the In the Country stamp set here; it's free with any $50 purchase.

  • Two-Tone Flora card with more ideas in the video


    Here's a pretty card I shared on a recent Facebook Live.  It features the Two-Tone flora bundle seen here. 

    My colors include Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent and Orchid Oasis. I kept this card very simple to show off the beautiful detail in the flowers.  

    The greeting is from the Framed Florets stamp set seen here. 

    I used Very Vanilla to stamp on as I haven't used it much lately.  It's a softer feel than White.  Does your Vanilla need some love too? 

    I hope you're inspired by this fun technique.  Click on the photo below to watch the video and see more cards with this bundle.
