Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:

  • The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
  • The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
  • I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
  • The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.

I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.

  • Easy way to make a 3 panel card with the Friendly Hello Bundle


    I shared this pretty card on last week's FB Live.  It features the new Friendly Hello bundle.  The stamp set AND the 12 X 12" Designer Paper is free with any $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 

    These pretty colors include Pool Party, Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  I colored in the bird, flowers & leaves with Stampin' Blends markers. 

    My top favorite thing about Stampin' Up! is our coordinating colors.  The fact that everything matches & coordinates so effortlessly takes so much work out of the creative process!  I used to struggle so much to get things to match before I 'met' Stampin' Up!  

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”, White 4” X 5 ¼”
    • Evening Evergreen 2 7/8” X 1 ¾”.
    • DSP 3 pieces 1 3/4” X 5”, 1 7/8” X 3”, 1 7/8” square

    I stamped one of the images onto the edges of my inside layer; almost like a frame.  Love this added detail! 

    Check out this bundle here.  It's a wonderful set of stamps & the DSP is gorgeous!

  • 3 ideas with the Friendly Hello bundle with video & measurements


    I featured the Friendly Hello bundle on last week's Facebook Live. One of the projects is this 'latch fold' card. Click here to get to my page & I hope you'll follow me too. 

    It's normally called a Joy Fold card but I added the flowers on the lower left as a latch to hold it closed.  I like it when a fun fold card stays flat and doesn't pop open on it's own. 

     

    The color combination is Pool Party with Fresh Freesia.  I think it's soft & springy; which we sorely need right now in North Dakota.  It's super color the last few weeks with more snow than I like!  

    Click here to see the Friendly Hello bundle.  It's part of our Sale-a-Bration offering through the end of February, 2022.  It's free with a $100 purchase from my store. I love this time of year when everyone can get something free with their purchase.  Most items are free with a $50 order but there are a few of higher value that are free with a $100 order.  

    I stamped the left flap of the card with the double flower image instead of texturing it.  I like the tone on tone stamping.  It adds detail without getting 'busy'.  

    I added the new Iridescent Rhinestones to the flower centers.  Love these so much!  I'm actually gifting a package away to everyone who places an online order over $50 this month.  See them here.

  • Calming Camelia 2 ways with video!


    Today I'm hosting my Spring Launch & BOGO Bash event!  If you're local to me in Minot, ND stop in!  It's from 3-6 pm.  I guarantee it will be worth coming!  I'll have yummy treats & hot cocoa, great BOGO selection, tons of samples and door prizes too!  

    ~~~

    On one of my weekly FB Live's I played with the Calming Camelia stamp set from the new 2022 Sale-a-Bration catalog. See it here. I'm so excited it's SAB time!! 

    I chose a few green/blue tones to stamp the same leaf image – Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green & Just Jade.  After stamping on the 1 3/4" X 2 3/4" White pieces I added texture with the new set of embossing folders called Stripes & Splatters 3D in the new Spring catalog. See them here. I did heat emboss the greetings with White embossing powder also. 


    The pretty embellishments are called Faux Sea Glass Shapes. They are available here in the new 2022 Jan-June Spring catalog. 

    Which layout do you prefer?  Vertical or horizontal?  

    This pretty stamp set is free to hosts during January & February with an order over $300.  You probably think that's way too large of an order.  But there is a way around that!  Here are a few ways:

    1. Gather with a few friends and place your order together so you can earn it free. See it here. 

    2. Or contact me here for a host code just for you and a few friends.  Each of you orders using the host code and the orders count together towards Host benefits.  You'll get this stamp set free AND $36 in free product as well!  

    You can see the video below; I share a few projects as well as some beautiful Swedish stars!
