Need a new Stampin’ Up! Catalog? Plus an accordion fun fold card with video & free project sheet!

March 28, 2023

It's an exciting time for those who love Stampin' Up! products….. the new 2023-24 Annual Catalog can be seen online tomorrow (Wednesday) by current Demonstrators.

We get to see the newest 2023-25 In Colors, which current colors are leaving, which colors are filling in our color lines (it usually includes some returning In Colors and some brand new colors)!

Save

Wednesday I'll be announcing which colors are leaving along with the retiring list of the current/retiring Annual catalog products so you stay informed. Remember that these retiring items are while supplies last. Do NOT WAIT to order. I have many people who are disappointed that they missed ordering items they really, really wanted.

*If you do not have a current Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and want a new Annual Catalog let me know by Thursday, March 30th. They are free to my current customers (those who've ordered from me within the past 6 months) or just $5 for me to send you one. You can pay via PayPal or Venmo.

~~~

The last Monday of each month I have a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my Facebook page here. A day or so before the Live I share the project we're making so those who want to stamp along with me can do so. Others can watch and create later.

After the video I provide a post where everyone who makes the project can share their version. All who do are entered in a drawing for a free prize from me. Click here to see all of the Floating Panel cards from February's Live.

This month I chose another fun fold card – an accordion card that really shows off both sides of your Designer Paper!

Save

I used the Awash in Beauty designer paper seen here. I also used the True Beauty bundle as well. See it here.

Save

The greeting tag is a die-cut from the Tailor Made Tags seen here. The ovals are from the Framed Florets dies seen here.

I created a free project sheet for this card too. Download Accordion DSP card project; March 2023

Here are the measurements:

DSP 5 1/4" X 11 3/4" – score at 1 3/4", 4 3/4" and 7 3/4".
Card base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
inside stamped layer 2" X 5 1/4"

I added an inside White layer to stamp and sign on. I used Melon Mambo & Old Olive markers to ink the flower bud image before I stamped and die-cut it.

2 more fun fold card ideas for you; from the Flowerbugs!

November 24, 2022
Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday weekend and spend it with friends or maybe stamping!

We'll be with our kids in Fargo and besides enjoying our turkey dinner we'll be playing games, going to an escape room and I'll be addressing some Christmas cards too.

~~~

Here are more of our Flowerbug's Team swaps featuring fancy folds.

Candy made this 'book binding' card with the Kindest Gnomes; see it here.

Save
Measurements are:
- Cherry Cobbler card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
- DSP 1" X 4" on the 'binding', 1/2" X 4" strip across
- Evergreen layer 4" square
Save

Roxann made this amazing Diamond Fold card. She used the Splendid Day specialty designer paper from the 2022 Holiday Catalog; seen here.

Save

Her colors include Petal Pink &Soft Sea Foam. It's finished size is 5" square so it does not fit into a standard A2 size envelope.

Measurements:
- Card base 5" X 10". Score at 2 1/2" & 5". You'll find the upper center at 2 1/2" and make a mark. From the top, cut down on both sides to the first score line, removing those upper corners.
- Then make a mark from the bottom up on each side at the 7 1/2" mark. Cut from the bottom center; also at 2 1/2", and cut to the 7 1/2" mark, removing the bottom outer corners.
- Soft Sea Foam squares are 3 1/4"
- Designer paper squares are 3"
Maybe someday I'll create one of these and share how it's done. It's a neat card!

Save

I sure have some talented Team Members, don't I? They always impress me with their creativity, colors and ingenuity.

Two more fun fold cards today; Penguins & Sun Prints

November 23, 2022
Today I have two more unique 'fun fold' cards for you. Both made by my talented Flowerbug's Team members.

First is an easy but quite unique fold made by Annette:

Save
- She used Night of Navy as her card base. It's 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and scored on the long side at 2", 3 1/8", 5 3/8" & 6 1/2".
- The Sun Prints DSP are 1 3/4" X 5 1/4" on the out side areas and 2" X 5 1/4" on the center.
- I didn't show a photo of the back but she added a White layer in the center area for signing. It's also 2" X 5 1/4"
It stands up nicely too. Here's what it looks like closed for mailing.

Save

The scalloped rectangle die-cut if from the Scalloped Contour dies; the greeting is from Charming Sentiments and the pretty stem die-cut is from the Nature's Prints bundle seen here.

~~~

Next is a cute spanner card made by Jacki. She chose to use the Penguin Place stamp set & coordinating Penguin Builder punch.

Save

Can you see how the sides and front greeting are floating in front of the center panel? It's a neat fold that you'll never see in a pre-made card!

She used window sheets across the bottom to hold the greeting layers.

Save

The designer paper is from the Tea Boutique 6 X 6" paper in the Annual Catalog. I love that snow hill curve!

Save

Measurements:
- White card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".
- Then make cuts at 1 1/4" from both sides on the front and cut to the center score line. That separates the sides from the front panel.
- DSP is 2 3/4" X 2" on the center and 1" X 4" on the sides.
Save
Here's a link to the Penguin Place stamp set and here's the Penguin Builder punch.
