Thanks a Bunch; a sneak peak of Sale-a-Bration

I joined several online swaps and challenged myself to play with the new Sale-a-Bration stamp set called 'Looking At You'.  It's all about carrots!

Here's what I came up with:

I paired it with the new Sale-a-Bration paper called Dandy Designs.  It's 12 X 12" and has 48 sheets.  It's free with a $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; January 5th – February 28th. 

When figuring out my card swap I came up with two different cards.  The left card is simple but shows off the images and DSP. The card below on the right is a fun fold card.

The center panel on the right card above and the card below slides up and down; I call it a Vertical Slider card.  It's not attached to anything but 'catches' on both sides of the center gatefold design with three circles or squares adhered to the back.  It's so easy!  Here's a link to the video on how to make it.

I decided to fussy cut one carrot on each card and pop it up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  It took a little time to do 22 of them, but worth it in my opinion.

Here's a photo of all 22 cards I made for my swap.  I love the colors for the carrots – Mango Melody & Granny Apple Green – I think they're perfect for them.

  • Quadrangle Cards Technique; a great use of your 6 X 6″ Designer Paper!

    Check out this great template where you cut a 6 X 6" piece of Designer Paper into 4 pieces for 4 cards.  I also layered it with a 6 1/2" piece of card stock for easy borders!  Look!

    I created the above cards with a sheet of the beautiful Plaid Tidings 6" DSP from the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I also used the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle and the two Daisy punches in the annual catalog.  Super easy cards! 

    The colors are Mango Melody, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White.  

    Then I used a different sheet of the Plaid Tidings DSP on Facebook Live last week.  I LOVE Black & White with a pop of color so I added Magenta Madness and used the Zany Zebras stamp set seen here.

    Aren't they fun?!  I wasn't sure if I wanted to add any pink to the zebras but I ended up loving it! I colored just a bit on the zebras with the Magenta Madness Blends marker.   

    If you're wondering just where this stamp set is, you can find it in the Beginner's Brochure or click here to see it online. 

    Below is my template for the Designer Paper.

    Next you'll see how you can place the DSP pieces onto a piece of 6 1/2" square piece of card stock and get nice layers. 

    You can see how I did it in the video below.  Remember I host 6 FB Live's a week.  Every Tuesday at 11 am CT and the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm.  Check them out here.   Just click on 'more' and then 'videos'.

    Tip: If you have trouble measuring things I suggest that once you have a template for both the Designer Paper and the layered card stock piece you save one to reuse over and over again.

    I hope you like these cards!  Be sure to watch the video below to catch the tips & tricks on using this template.

  • Christmas Card classes are starting in September!

    I know it seems early to start on Christmas cards but I have many people that start them way before this.  I am definitely NOT ready for summer to be over!  I want to hang on as long as I can!

    I hold two Christmas Class sessions per month from September through early December.  I know many of you wonder how I can do this during Covid-19 but my classes are not large so there can be quite a bit of space between people.  And masks are encouraged.  

    Here are my first set of cards for September's classes:

    Sept cards Save

    I'm featuring the Snowflake Wishes bundle, the Tree Angle stamp set & Triangle dies, the Evergreen Forest embossing folder & Toille Christmas and lastly the Merry Moose bundle.  

    They'll make 3 of each card with coordinating stamped envelopes for a total of 12 cards per class.  Most people come to all 4 month's of classes and end up with 48 beautiful Christmas cards ready for addressing.  

    Sept cards Save

    The class dates are September 12th at 10 am and 16th at 6 pm.  Please RSVP by September 7th to attend.  

    If you cannot attend class locally in Minot, ND you can choose to order the pdf tutorial for these cards.  They're designed for both  crafters and for demonstrators to use in their classes. Check it out here.

    I've been using mine and I love it!  They said it would cut dies with one pass through and it really does!  Even intricate dies!  I love the portability of it and how compact it is for storage.
