More fun fold cards!

May 21, 2020

Each day this week I'm sharing many of the Fun Fold card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team. They are amazing!

First is Candace's pretty Double Triangle card:

This card is so fun to make and to receive! You can find all kinds of tutorials for this fold. Here's a video I made for it:

The best thing about this card fold is how perfectly it uses both your card stock and designer paper without waste! And it makes 2 cards at the same time!

Start out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock. Score it down the center both ways; at 5 1/2" and 4 1/4". Then cut in half on the diagonal like this:

Save

Now cut two pieces of designer paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" in half. Use double sided paper for the best use; two for each card.

Candace used the retiring Peaceful Poppies designer paper seen here, the Painted Label dies and the Peaceful Moments bundle. I love that splash of designer paper inside the card!

Save

Marilyn made this beautiful card with the Ornate Garden suite of products seen here; an early release from the upcoming Annual Catalog.

The Olive card base is 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
The Terracotta Tile layer is 4" X 3"
Designer paper is 3 7/8" X 2 7/8"
The Olive stitched rectangle is 3 1/2" X 2 1/4"
The Terracotta Tile die-cut is from the Ornate Frames dies
The White daisy layer is 1 1/8" X 2 1/2", the White inside is 4" X 5 1/5"
Stamps are from the Ornate Style & Ornate Thanks stamp sets

Paula made this striking fun fold card using the Peaceful Poppies designer paper and the Painted Poppies bundle.

Save

This Peaceful Poppies designer paper is retiring and is on the Last Chance list now while supplies last here. I'm so glad the Painted Poppies bundle will be returning in the new Annual catalog!

Measurements:

Poppy Parade main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
Striped DSP is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
Poppies DSP is 1 3/4 X 3 3/4"
White strips are 2" X 4"

I hope you're enjoying these fun fold cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team! More tomorrow!

Easiest Shaker card you’ll ever make!

January 26, 2021
Giving an interactive card makes the card extra special like shakers, spinners or fun folds. But they can be time consuming or a lot of work.

Save

I used the free 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. You can see it here. That background was made with our Blending Brushes and Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral ink.

Save

This type of shaker card is truly easy; really! Besides the stamped element you need three basic things:
1. A clear envelope
2. Strong adhesive
3. Sequins, beads or tiny punched pieces
Insert your stamped card stock into the clear envelope, fold the excess envelope over to the back and seal with adhesive leaving one end open. Add your fun filler and seal closed.

Save

The pretty sequins in this card are the Woven Threads sequins in the annual catalog on page 157.

I made a video in December on making one of these shaker cards. Even though it's a Christmas card it's the same technique. Here it is:

I used the Paper Blooms DSP, Stitched in Whimsy & In Bloom bundle in Night of Navy & White. This pretty designer paper is free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here.

See that neat stitching on the inside of the card? That's my new favorite 'Stitched with Whimsy' dies; seen here.

Save

I used both the dies and the stamp set on my front panels. I also stamped the greeting on the inside layer on the bottom left card.

Save

You can see this neat In Bloom bundle here. Look at these dies! Love the stitching!

Don’t miss out on our best deal!

January 24, 2021
I want to ask you 3 questions:
1. Do you have a long wish list of Stampin' Up! products?
2. Have you ever wished you could get all of your Stampin' Up! products on sale?
3. Have you wanted to see the new catalogs early? And order products early too?!
If you answered yes to any of the above I hope you'll tune in to my Facebook Live on Tuesday evening. I am going to go over the truths & myths of becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I'm also sharing how I got started.

Here's a link to the event. Opt in and you'll get notified when I'm on.

For those of you not on Facebook, I'll upload it to YouTube on Wednesday here.

I asked my Flowerbug's to share their 'why' and it was so neat to hear their responses! They are so happy they made the decision; I've never had anyone tell me they regretted it. Ever!

Some have been with me more than 10 years and never held a class! And that's okay! A few have had some classes to help them meet their minimums and a few hold regular events.

Here are their most popular reasons:
1. They love the discount of 20% or more on all their purchases.
2. They're enjoying being a part of something so upbeat and rewarding, making friends online and in person.
3. They don't want to give up the Stampin' Up! online community. There are numerous, exclusive websites they have access to with tons of inspiration not seen anywhere else.
4. They really love getting their catalogs early and ordering from them before anyone else.
Fact: You get $125 of product of your choice, 5 packs of 6×6 DSP ($57.50), free Past Paper Pumpkin ($21), no shipping on any of this ($20.35). So instead of $223.85… you pay just $99?! What?

The Starter Kit is always 25% off but during Sale-a-Bration it's an even better deal with the extra 5 packs of Designer paper you get free; a value of $57!

Save

Remember the Starter kit is only $99 and you can choose up to $125 in product of your choice. You get free shipping, a free Paper Pumpkin kit and lots of catalogs & business supplies. Go here to get yours!
