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


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!  

You can watch me make this card on the video here. Or click on the photo below to watch.

  • Amazing Let’s Go Fishing projects by Candace, our Artist of the month


    I hope you're enjoying the 4th of July today.  We celebrated yesterday and today is a quiet day to catch up on things around the house.

    I am excited to show you these projects!  Candace was our Artist of the Month and chose to use the Gone Fishing bundle seen here.  The dies are currently unavailable but should be back in stock any day now. 

    I will share her projects this week, through Friday. 

    Here's the first card; it's a special fun fold card with a greeting on a flap. The flap is secured under the DSP strip on the right inside of the card.  

    I love the added fish and wavy trim she added. Her colors include Calypso Coral, Mossy Meadow and Vanilla.  

    Measurements:

    • Mossy Meadow card base 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", strip for flap 4" X 1" scored at 1", circle is 3 1/2" 
    • Let's Go Fishing DSP 2 3/4" X 5" & 1 1/4" X 5 1/2" inside
    • Calypso Coral 3" X 5 1/4"
    • Vanilla inside 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", circle 2 1/8" 

    This next card shows off the amazing Gone Fishing dies that are included in the bundle.  Look at the many details – lures & bobbins galore all in the fabulous large frame die-cut that mimics a tackle box. 

    The colors include Boho Blue, Smoky Slate, Misty Moonlight, Real Red, White and a bit of Calypso Coral and Lemon Lime Twist. 

    She even added inside stripes using designer paper and card stock, perfect for guys. 

    You can see the Gone Fishing bundle here. 

    Next is a fun 'inchie' style card.  She cut out 12 squares of the Let's Go Fishing designer paper seen here and added them to a Misty Moonlight layer. 

    The squares of designer paper are 1 1/4" each. The Boho Blue layer is 5 1/4" X 4".  She used the Stylish Shapes dies for her greeting.  Love the frayed Natural Wavy trim on the greeting. 

    Here's what she did with the inside. 

    Below you can see all of her incredible projects. There's such a variety and I'll share details on each fabulous card in the next few days. 

    I'll share more of her amazing projects Thursday.  Stop back in!
