Gatefold Velvet Meadow arches card


Here’s another neat card sample featuring the Velvet Meadow suite:

Gatefold cards are a great way to use your pretty designer series paper. Each side measures 1 7/8″ X 5 1/4″. I stamped the pretty flowers from the Flowering Meadow bundle seen here on the White arch die-cut; then layered it on the next size larger Peaceful Pine arch die-cut.

The Arches dies are out of stock currently but will be back.

I stamped the flowers in Bubble Bath, Berry Burst and Peaceful Pine ink. The greeting is stamped on a strip of White that is layered on the Velvet specialty paper in Bubble Bath color. A pretty but easy card.

Here’s what the open view looks like:

The color combinations Stampin’ Up! comes up with in their designer paper continues to amaze me. They make it so easy to make beautiful, coordinating projects. Our color families and the matching products is what drew me to Stampin’ Up! over 21 years ago and is still one of my favorite things about them.

  • Sweet Citrus video; a Grapefruit version with optional gift card


    We made this CUTE fun fold card at my February Card Clubs and it was a big hit!  Everyone loved the fresh color combo and how cool the textured fruit images are.  

    I used the Sweet Citrus bundle seen here and these colors: Flirty Flamingo, Pale Papaya and Granny Apple Green.  You can sure see the texture in the photo above.  Did you know you can use our Hybrid embossing folders to texture and die-cut all at once?  It's super cool and saves a step. 

    I show how in the video along with how to stamp the fruit perfectly using the Stamparatus.  Perfect every time! 

    The card is a bit different in that the lower panel can be left open to add a gift card or money into.  Or seal it up; your choice.  

    Card measurements: 

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4" & 9 1/2"
    • White 4" X 3 1/2" for textured front, stamped front panel is 2 7/8" X 4", inside is 4" X 3 1/2"
    • Granny Apple Green 3" X 4 1/8"
    • Pale Papaya strip 4 1/4" X 3/4"
    • Dandy Designs DSP 4" X 1 1/4"

  • Sweet Citrus bundle with a Hybrid embossing folder; you can texture & cut at the same time!


    In a recent video I shared multiple projects featuring the Sweet Citrus bundle.  Every card I make with this set is my favorite!  How can that be?

    Let's start with colors – they're Balmy Blue with Daffodil Delight and Garden Green.  So fresh and spring-like.  

    The designer paper is called Country Gingham seen here. 

    The images and greetings are all from the Sweet Citrus stamp set. It comes in a bundle with dies AND a Hybrid embossing folder. See it here

    What is a Hybrid embossing folder?  It's one that allows you to cut AND texture at the same time.  You can use it the usual way as well.  But using the die & folder together eliminates a step.  I show how it's done in the video here. 

    There are many reasons to get this bundle but the greetings are a big one.  So perfect and coordinate nicely with the stamp theme.  

    I shared lots of samples in the video; I hope you watch it!  Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on YouTube here.

  • The Hello, Irresistible card kit to go is here!


    I had to use the new Hello, Irresistible designer paper for my March card kit to go.  It's absolutely gorgeous with fresh spring colors plus deep, rich tones too.  

    The colors include Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Lost Lagoon, Petal Pink, Pretty Peacock, Soft Sea Foam.

    *Did you see that Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock are included?  Stampin' Up! shared that we ARE getting a Color Refresh with the new Annual Catalog in May. We'll know which colors are retiring on March 29th.  

    4 of the 5 designs are fun folds in this kit including an explosion and a shaker card.  It was difficult to get a good photo.  But they are gorgeous in real life!


    This pre-cut kit to go includes the 10 pre-cut cards & all elements, 1/2 pkg. of the new Hello, Irresistible DSP, a share of White Glittered ribbon and In Color Opal Rounds. The PDF tutorial is free!  That's $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards for just $28. Reserve your kit to go here.    *This is the kit my monthly subscribers will receive. 

    Or choose the PDF only for $15 here. 

    Be sure to opt in by March 19th to get this kit to go. The PDF will be emailed to you immediately after payment from my Shopify site.  The pre-cut card kit & products will be delayed due to the DSP is out of stock.  It will be sent to you in early April. 

    You will need a paper trimmer (to cut your new DSP), adhesives, greeting images and a few ink pads.  I used the Irresistible Blooms stamp set for greetings but you can substitute others if needed. 

    Add on the Irresistible Blooms stamp set or bundle at 10% off!  Message me here for that option and I'll send you an invoice for it all. 

    I have another new kit to go available in March – the Rain or Shine fun fold card kit.  See that here.   Get both and save $$.*Add on any other card kit with it and save on shipping costs!  Go here to see them all.
