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.

  • Life is Beautiful meets Snowflake Splendor for a beautiful winter card


    I created this card for a recent FB Live.  I was asked to share ideas and samples with my Life is Beautiful stamp set for a private Demonstrator only Facebook group.  What an honor it is to be asked!  

    Here's one of the cards I made.  I'll share more next week!

    I stamped directly onto pieces of the Snowflake Splendor designer paper.  Did you know it's on sale this month?  Check out all 15 packs of paper on sale here.

  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card; easy but beautiful!


    Here's another pretty fun fold card with the Snowflake Wishes suite of products.  Marilyn made this beauty. 

    It's a side fold card which is super easy to do!

    She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for her front layers, the Snowflake Splendor designer paper on the left and the Snowflake Wishes bundle for the stamps & die-cuts.   Note the pretty Glimmer snowflake!  Our Balmy Blue Glimmer paper is gorgeous! 

    She used Pacific Point ink on the greeting and the faint snowflakes in the background were done by stamping off a few times to get a lighter hue. 

    Measurements: 

    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2", stitched rectangle die-cut is 3" X 4 1/4"
    • Whisper White inside 4" X 5 1/4", stitched rectangle die-cut is 2 5/8" X 4"
    • Snowflake Splendor DSP 2 1/2" X 4"

    Look at this amazing fun fold card Tracey made for our Flowerbug's Team swap last month.  Incredibly beautiful! 

    This card is over the top gorgeous!  The Navy snowflakes are die-cut with the Snowflake Wishes bundle here and she also used the Snowflake Splendor designer paper here; it's on sale this month!!

    This fancy fold card is for those crafters who don't mind scoring and cutting with multiple measurements!  You can see her template below and one I found online to show scoring areas.  

    Here's the inside view: 

    • The Navy greeting piece is 3/4" X 4 1/8".
    • The center DSP is 4 1/4" X 2", the center Navy is 2 1/8" X 4 3/8"
    • The DSP side pieces are 3/4" X 4 1/4", the Navy side pieces are 7/8" X 4 3/8" 

    Here is her template.  It's called a Center Step card and measures 4 1/4" X 11". 

    Outside score lines are at 1", 2" and 6 1/2". The center score line is at 5 1/2" .
