This kit includes 10 pre-cut cards (2 each of 5 cards), 1/2 pkg. Nature's Harvest designer paper (6" X 12"), Metallic adhesive gems & Linen Thread. It's a fabulous value as the product is worth $20 (without tax & shipping) and the cost is just $28 and the tutorial is free!

8 of these 10 cards are fancy folds and with the tutorial you'll have measurements to make more using other products.

You will need your own stamps, ink, adhesive and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper using the measurements provided in the tutorial. Everything else is cut & prepped for you.

The Last Chance Sale starts Tuesday!! The Stamparatus is already low inventory!

April 2, 2023

Tuesday starts our big Last Chance sale on both the Annual and Spring (January-April) catalogs. However things are already selling out! I wanted to give you a heads up on my favorite tool.

One of the biggest shocker on the retired lists is our Stamparatus seen here. It's already in low inventory!

I am SO SAD that it is retiring. You may wonder why because it's an amazing stamping positioning tool. There are some copyright & legal issues happening that is forcing Stampin' Up! to take it out of their product offerings.

Save

This means the magnets, grid paper are leaving as well. So if you don't have a Stamparatus yet; get one today! And if you do, I suggest getting a set of magnets here while you can. They're half off starting Tuesday, April 4th.

Here's a video showing you the benefits of a Stamparatus.

And here's another one below on hinge step stamping.

It's a Floating Panel fun fold card; one of my current favorite folds lately. It's both fun to make and easy to create too!

My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Daffodil Delight. Below you'll see the baby version. I gave my gals the choice of Easter or baby.

The greetings for the baby card are from Charming Sentiments. Click here for the PDF project sheet for measurements & products used.

I used a variety of products on this card:

Here are the measurements:
- Card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2". Scraps for bunny & circle punch. Two strips 1/2" X 1 1/2" for the floating panel hinges

Have you ever done the baby swipe technique? It's so fun; playing with baby wipes and ink refills is a bit addictive!

I made this card for our March Team swap; the theme was to use a technique involving ink refills.

Save

My colors include Daffodil Delight, Polished Pink and Black.

Other products used:
- Potted Succulent dies for the greeting die-cut
- Dainty Delight dies – black die-cuts
- Penned Flowers dies for the scalloped edge
- Brass butterflies seen here
Save

Can you spot the shimmer? I used the Pearlescent paper from the Annual Catalog. See it here.

It was the perfect sheen for this technique as the moist ink did not absorb quickly like it might for regular card stock. Glossy paper would also work well.

After I added the color, I let it dry for an hour or so. Then I textured it with one of the embossing folders in the 3D Basics pack seen here. These are currently out of stock but they'll be back in May.

Save

Below you can see the difference in my cards; especially the colors. One is soft and subtle and the other more vibrant. This happens as you work with your baby wipe; the first few swipes are bold and the next few are much softer.

Tips for success:
- Fold and roll your baby wipe in a tube. Hold it tightly and add a few drops of ink refills.
- Add each color separately in a row. I tend to add enough for about 1/2" of surface.
- Start swiping off your paper and then onto it. You can do straight swipes or get creative and add curves or swirls. Let dry.
- Shimmery, pearlescent or glossy works best. But you can do it on regular card stock too.
- I suggest you use light to medium colors.
Save

Notice the colors of the butterflies? I colored the Brass Butterflies with a Polished Pink blends marker for the left card. I wasn't sure I liked it or not so left them uncolored for my swap cards.

Watch the video here or click on the image below to see this technique. It's the last technique I share in the video.
