More incredible By the Bay card samples!


Yesterday I shared 5 gorgeous cards my team member Bobby made with the By the Bay suite. See the entire suite here. 

She is our Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team and chose the Seaside Bay bundle for her projects.  She is a very talented stamper and a fabulous photographer too! 

This first card is unbelievable Pillar Pop-Up card and was cased from Rachel Tessman. 

It's so cool!  This card truly shows off this suite and the stunning gold accents in the By the Bay designer paper.  

Can you see the little DSP pillars in the photo below?  The entire upper panel is adhered to two little pillars and they fold flat for mailing too.  I had to make one myself and chose to use the Adorable Owls for my card.  You can see it here on my video.  Measurements too! 

This next card is a Book Binding fold. Her card base is Balmy blue and that pretty shell designer paper is adhered to narrow White layers. 

It also shows off the soft Balmy Blue variegated ribbon that's new in our Spring catalog.  

When making a book binding fold card you will adhere the front left edge to the back so only the large layer on the left opens.  Tip: If adding ribbon you may want to wrap it behind before you secure the scored edge together.  

Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/2" & 5 1/2"
  • White 4 1/8" X 7/8" and 4 1/8" square
  • DSP 3/4" X 4" and 4" square

See the By the Bay 6 X 6" specialty designer paper here.  It's so beautiful I chose it for one of my January card kits to go.  I have just 3 left; see the kit or PDF here.  

Next is a simple but super pretty card with just a square of the By the Bay designer paper set onto a layer of Gold Foil.  The nice thing about doing this is you can die-cut your elements from the center of the Gold foil and no one can tell!  


Cards with mostly White draw your eye to the main element as you can see here.  She stamped her greeting on the White layer before texturing it with the Timeworn Type embossing folder seen here.  Pool Party is her accent color.  

Measurements:

  • The DSP is 2 7/8" square and the gold foil is 3" square. 
  • The white layer is 4" X 5 1/4" and Pool Party is 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" 

Her next card is an easel card and it shows off the clam shell die in the Seaside Bay bundle.  It is scored and hinges open to reveal a pretty pearl gem inside.  

She cased it from Julia Quinn.  That pretty clam shell and the designer paper layer is what holds the easel up.  So neat!  

Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
  • Sahara Sand easel 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4 and 6"
  • White – 2 pieces measuring 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
  • DSP one at 5 X 3 3/4" and one at 5" X 1 1/2" 

Next and last is an exquisite card featuring just Sahara Sand, foils and white.  Love the soothing colors here!

This pretty card was cased from Gail Ellis and shows off the textured die-cuts when done in foil. 

Measurements:

  • White 5 1/4" X 4" and 5 1/4" X 2 3/4"
  • DSP squares 1 1/2"
  • Sahara Sand squares 1 5/8" squares & two strips for the torn edge on the shells area 
  • two gold strips 1/2" X 5 1/4"

I hope you've enjoyed seeing the beautiful cards Bobby created to show off the Seaside Bay bundle. She sure did a fantastic job didn't she?

  • Video with Stampin’ Up! Stitched Dies for some easy WOW cards!


    Look at these fun and unique cards made with the Stitched Triangle dies!  

    Aren't they neat?  Our Stitched dies are quite versatile and can be used in a variety of ways as you can see! 

    I used the Well Said stamp set, Well Written & Stitched Triangle dies.  The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" and the Vellum ¾" X 4”

    These cards were created on last week's FB Live video.  If you're not following me yet here's the link to my FB page.  Be sure to like & follow so you catch them every week on Tuesdays at 11 am CT.  

    Check out the Stitched Rectangle cards below.  I cut all of the Playful Patterns Designer Paper layers at the same time using just 2 dies.  

    How did I do it?  Start out with a piece measuring 5 1/4" X 4" and choose the 3rd & 6th dies from the outside.  Perfect layers! 

    I then layered the Designer Paper with card stock and added a die-cut greeting from the Best Year stamp set. 

    Supplies & Measurements:

    • Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, & Calypso Coral
    • Tasteful Label dies, Detailed Bands dies, rhinestones
    • DSP – 5 ¼” X 4”, and cut with dies at 3 ¾” X 3” & 3 1/8” X 1 ¾”
    • CS – 4 5/8” X 3 ¼” and 3 3/8” X 2”

  • Black Friday Special! (Through Sunday too)


    Do you normally shop on Black Friday?  Online or in the stores?  I have a feeling there will be a LOT more online shopping this year!  That's my plan anyway.

    And if your order is over $75 I'll add a tube of Multipurpose glue too!

    I will choose the color unless you message me requesting a certain color. We have a limited supply of some colors. 

    If you want to purchase one or more they're available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each and shipping is about $3-4 in US.   They make great gifts for your stamping friends!

    Next weekend I'm having the last Christmas cards class on Saturday.  Here are the cards we're making: 

    It's all about the trees this time!  I realized after I grouped them together that each one features a tree.  

    Class is Saturday, December 5th at 10 am.  Class size is limited due to social distancing but there are two spots left. Message me if you'd like to come.  You can get the PDF tutorial for this class and the 3 others I had here at my Shop.
