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!

Pick of the Patch cards with Abundant Beauty masks & video

September 5, 2023

I made these pretty fall cards on last week's Live video. I share a Live video on my Facebook page here each Tuesday at 11am CT.

I love the multi-colored background!

Save

I used three colors of ink and the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks on the leafy background. Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie and a bit of Wild Wheat.

Save

I textured the Garden Green layer with the Basics 3D embossing folder (online Exclusive seen here). The zig-zag is from the Basic Borders dies.

I used the same decorative mask to add some detail to the inside of the card too. Watch the video below to see my tips on multiple inks and masks.

I am so glad we have a Pumpkin builder punch in! It has two sizes of pumpkins and a stem and leaf; all coordinates with the Pick of the Patch stamp set. These products go live for customers Wednesday, September 6th!

Autumn Leaves card with free project sheet; great layout for 6 X 6″ designer paper

September 4, 2023

I created about 25 of these pretty cards for a recent online swap. We also made it at a Team Meeting in August.

Save

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Lost Lagoon, Copper and Very Vanilla. I used the new Autumn Leaves bundle from the upcoming Holiday Catalog. It goes live for customers on September 6th.

You might wonder how I achieved the two tone leaf. I inked the leaf in Pumpkin Pie ink and rubbed off the edges a bit. Then I added Pretty Peacock ink to the edges of the stamp with a sponge dauber, huffed and stamped.

Here's the inside:
