We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!

On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!

These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy!

  • Beautiful Vine Design with Oh So Ombre with video!

    What do you think of the Oh So Ombre designer paper?  Have you seen it yet?  If not look here.  

    OH SO OMBRE 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    It's a 6 X 6" pack of 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper.  There are 2 designs and 4 colors in this pretty pack and it's FREE with any $50 order during  Sale-a-Bration! 

    I created this card with it for a Flowerbug's swap a few weeks ago. The first card features the Bermuda Bay color in the pack.   

    Oh so Ombre Bermuda Vine Save

    Of course I chose to use all new products!  The pretty stitched outline is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here.  I love that they don't actually cut; they just stitch a pretty outline. You can really notice the Ombre since I switched the die when I inserted it back in the window. Watch how in the video. 

    The intricate die is from the Flowering Vines die.  It's part of the bundle with the Vine Design stamp set which is where the greeting images are from.  See them here.
