In Color bundle special offer ends May 1st!

April 27, 2023

Each year with the new in colors release I offer my customers a special In Color Bundle. I include lots of items so you have perfectly coordinating products to create with.

I created these CUTE cards with all 5 new In Colors and the Crafting with You bundle.

Save

I used many products that are included in my special bundle: card stock, ink, ribbons, dots and designer series paper. They're a great example of all you can create when your products coordinate so perfectly.

If you look closely you can see that I stamped a background in each color of ink using the new Cheerful Daisies stamp set.

Look at the die-cutting machine; it even has textured paper going through it! I did that by cutting a slit with my craft knife. The large white angled die-cut is made with the new Countryside Corners dies.

Gorgeous Rocker cards with a video tutorial & free project sheet!

January 24, 2024

Here's another special card I shared on last week's Live video. It's called a 'rocker card'.

Save

The pretty roses are from the Softly Stippled designer series paper – seen here in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. I fussy cut the roses on the upper circles and colored them with Pool Party ink and a Wink of Stella. I love coloring with my Wink of Stella as it adds a beautiful shimmer. Watch the video below to see how.

It's made with our Deckled Circle dies seen here. There are a ton of them in the set – 14 sizes! They carried over from our Holiday catalog and can be seen online.

Save

For the card base I used the second from the largest die; it's almost 5 1/2" wide. Once you cut it, score it in half at 2 3/4".

Of course you'll use the next size down for the front half layer and the inside.

I post at least two of these free tutorials each week! I hope you'll subscribe to my blog. Go to the right side and click on 'get email updates'. Then you won't miss a thing!

The second sample was made with Calypso Coral & Pebbled Path. It seems like Pebbled Path is a perfectly beautiful color to pair most of our soft colors with.

My greetings are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here. It's paired with a beautiful embossing folder and is free with any $100 purchase from Stampin' Up!.

Wow – Texturing Vellum is a fabulous effect! Check out this pretty Softly Sophisticated card

January 23, 2024
I couldn't stop playing with the Softly Stippled designer paper and the Softly Sophisticated bundle! This card came together by using a sketch layout I saw online.

Save

There are so many neat details on this card; I'll list a few of them.
- Check out the textured vellum! It's done with the Softly Sophisticated folder (sale-a-Bration choice). Our vellum cardstock doesn't crack!
- The pretty Softly Stippled designer paper seen here in the background adds even more texture.
- The dotted rectangle die-cut is from the Everyday Details dies seen here.
- Check out the ribbon treatment. I tied a bow around the Pool Party ribbon (Sale-a-Bration choice) with the Pebbled Path jute twine – separated into one strand.
- The stamps are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here – gorgeous greetings and 2-step florals.

I've mentioned it before but I'm finding our new Pebbled Path to be a wonderful neutral color with our soft subtle colors. It's brown but with a slight gray tone to it. Lovely!

Fabulous & SO Easy ‘Quilted Star’ card with a cool punch trick, a free project sheet & video

January 22, 2024
One of my team members shared a card like this in our Flowerbug's group and claimed it was so easy she's making lots of these cards. I loved it so much I had to find out how she made it!

Save

I learned how by watching the creators video; her name is Julie Heitz and she goes by the Chirpy Cardmaker. I shared how to make it during last week's Live video.

The products used include the pretty Softly Stippled designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order. See it here.

Colors are Pool Party, White & Pebbled Path. Aren't they beautiful together? Pebbled Path is like a cross between brown & gray; it's a wonderful neutral!

Here's another color combo I tried using the same Softly Stippled designer paper – Calypso Coral with Wild Wheat.

Save

You can see the 'quilting' better on this photo. That is the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder – it's also a free choice in out SAB catalog but is paired with a stamp set (greeting used here) – both are free with a $100 order. See them here.

Creating this quilted star block with paper is super easy. However watching the video helps a lot!
1. Start by drawing a line from corner to corner on your 3" white card stock square.
2. Choose 4 strips of designer paper 1/2" X 6". Add two strips to one corner and the other two strips to the corner next to it.
3. Weave the strips as shown. Then adhere down the opposite ends of each strip to the White square.
4. Trim off excess.
You might think it would be hard to get those perfect points on your star, right? That was my first thought when I saw this card layout; I'd never get them perfect. Well there's a super easy trick to it!

Save

    5. After you add your strips to the white square, trimming off the excess, you'll add four white 3/4" squares to each corner. It creates the points for you! Genius!

    6. Run the block through an embossing folder. It helps to 'deboss' it so any stitching is pressed in. When using the Softly Sophisticated folder you'll have the wrong side up on the Stampin' Up! label.

You might notice the unique banner for my greeting. It's created with the Inked & Tiled punch like this:

Save

I start out with a 5/8" white strip and insert the punch in the back of the punch; not the usual place. Wiggle it into the slot and adjust it until it's even and punch. Now you'll start looking at your punches in a new way and likely find some great options for banners! The nice thing is that it doesn't have to be a certain width to work.
