Inlaid technique video with Mountain View!


This gorgeous card was one of our January Card Club projects.  Of course I love the colors of Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock. 

I cased the idea from Cheryl Miller at Sense of Whimsy. 

Here's how to make this pretty card. 

  1. First die-cut two trees from the main White panel one on the upper left and one on the lower right.
  2. I sponged one of these die-cut white trees with Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple ink for the center tree. 
  3. Then die-cut two more trees from the Lily Impressions designer paper (free with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration).  
  4. Adhere the White panel to the Coastal Cabana panel and then to the main Green card base. 
  5. Insert the two die-cut trees into the left and right die-cut areas for an inlaid effect.  (I recommend Fine Tip glue or Multipurpose adhesive)
  6. There's a trick to getting this unique greeting shape with the Tailored Tag punch.  I share it on the video below. 
  7. I used the Sending you Thoughts stamp set and heat embossed the greeting. 

Watch the video below for many more tips on creating this fabulous card.

  • Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!


    This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not! 


    Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

    The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!  


    If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

    I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

    And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

  • Have you made a ‘Book-binding Easel’ card yet? It’s so neat!


    This cool card is made like a traditional book binding fold but turned into an easel card too! 

    I used Berry Burst & Misty Moonlight or Blueberry Bushel for my layers. That cute tag on the front is from the Beautiful Balloons dies.  The stars that hold up the easel are die-cuts from the same dies.  You need to add a Dimensional on one of them. Watch the video here or scroll down. 

    You can see this bundle here online.  

    I stamped the inside with the banner in multiple colors, some stamped off.

    Here's what the card looks when it's flat: 

    I am so glad that we have Berry Burst back! 

    Measurements:

    • Berry Burst 4 ¼” X 11” score at 4 ¼” & 5 ½”, 2nd piece 4 ¼” square
    • Misty Moonlight 3 ¼” square & 1” X 4”
    • DSP 3” and ¾” X 3 ¾”
    • white 4” square

    You can see the Bright & Beautiful designer series paper  here.  

    *I'll be featuring this fun designer paper in June's card kit to go.

  • Beautiful Balloons with Bright & Beautiful designer series paper


    I've been playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle and thought making my own background with the balloon images would be cool.  

    I chose a few of our newest colors to compliment the Bright & Beautiful designer series paper seen here.  My colors are Bubble Bath, Lemon Lime Twist and Boho Blue.  I love that the images appear somewhat translucent like real balloons.  

    *I'll be featuring this fun designer paper in next month's card kit to go. 

    It's an easy fun fold card too. I stamped the greeting on a stamped large balloon and die-cut it with one of the dies in the bundle.   

    Measurements:

    • Bubble Bath card stock is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" & scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
    • designer paper is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
    • White 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" 
    • Black 3 3/8" X 4 5/8" 

    I had fun stamping the inside (3 1/2" X 4 3/4") with the balloon string and confetti images.
