We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!

November 23, 2020

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!

Here's the template for the explosion card.

Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

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!

Fabulous Team Swaps!

May 22, 2024
We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made.

First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.

Save

Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze. Gorgeous!! The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

Save

There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.

Save

See the stamp set here and the dies here. They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog.

The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.

I shared a walk through video of our new 2024-25 Annual Catalog on last week's Live video. If you missed it here's the link to watch it.

This new catalog is quite different than we're used to. I cover the reason's why they changed it and share lots of tips on how to navigate it. You'll also learn ways to find the items you're looking for.

I've had requests to share how I added tabs to my catalog. I prefer to use the removable tabs you can get in an office or big box store.

Here's a peek at mine:

I added my tabs on the following pages. It might be odd but I add them to the page before so when I grab the tab it reveals that category page.
- Page 17 – Mix & Match
- Page 21 – Sketches
- Page 33 – Suites
- Page 57 – Bundles
- Page 73 – Encore
- Page 111 – Ribbon
- Page 113 – Ribbon
- Page 115 – Adhesive
- Page 127 – Emboss Folders
- Page 113 – Colors
- Page 139 – Index
Below is the video of the walk through of the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up! If you do not have one nor your own Stampin' Up! Demonstrator let me know. They are free to my customers or $5 for me to mail you one.
