New Inked & Tiled in a Book Binding Easel fun fold card; video tutorial & measurements too!

May 22, 2023

I'm just a little bit in love with this special fun fold layout! I've made three versions of it this month….

I featured two new colors in our Stampin' Up! catalog – Boho Blue & Pebbled Path with returning Misty Moonlight & White.

I hope you watch the video here or below to see how to make this neat card. It's so much easier than it looks!

I knew this stamp set would be fun to play with. The greetings are wonderful and of course the botanical images are beautiful!

Details:

I stamped the large leaf repeatedly onto the Boho Blue layers using Versamark ink. I let it dry and then textured it with the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder. I love this new folder!!
How did I get the two-tone colors on my flowers? I used both an ink pad and markers. I inked the flowers first in Boho Blue. Then I colored the stems using a Pebbled Path Stampin' Write marker. Huff and stamp! Why huff? Huffing with your moist breath re-moistens the ink on your stamp. This can be especially helpful with solid type stamps.
After stamping I used the same Pebbled Path marker to add more detail to the base of each flower.
For an easel card you need something to hold it open. I stamped the flower in the set onto a piece of Boho Blue and punched it out with the Petal Park Builder punch. I curled and distressed the petals and added it with a few Mini Dimensionals.

The card does lay flat for mailing.

I added a looped piece of the 2023-25 In Color Jute trim under my punched Oval greeting. I did sponge a bit of Boho Blue on the edges first.

In the video I share two other beautiful cards made with the Inked & Tiled stamp set. I made two of them for swaps on the Stampin' Up! incentive trip I'm on right now! A Norwegian cruise!

Fabulous Team Swaps!

May 22, 2024
We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made.

First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.

Save

Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze. Gorgeous!! The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

Save

There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.

Save

See the stamp set here and the dies here. They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog.

The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.

I shared a walk through video of our new 2024-25 Annual Catalog on last week's Live video. If you missed it here's the link to watch it.

This new catalog is quite different than we're used to. I cover the reason's why they changed it and share lots of tips on how to navigate it. You'll also learn ways to find the items you're looking for.

I've had requests to share how I added tabs to my catalog. I prefer to use the removable tabs you can get in an office or big box store.

Here's a peek at mine:

I added my tabs on the following pages. It might be odd but I add them to the page before so when I grab the tab it reveals that category page.
- Page 17 – Mix & Match
- Page 21 – Sketches
- Page 33 – Suites
- Page 57 – Bundles
- Page 73 – Encore
- Page 111 – Ribbon
- Page 113 – Ribbon
- Page 115 – Adhesive
- Page 127 – Emboss Folders
- Page 113 – Colors
- Page 139 – Index
Below is the video of the walk through of the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up! If you do not have one nor your own Stampin' Up! Demonstrator let me know. They are free to my customers or $5 for me to mail you one.
