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!

Nothing’s Better Than cards

July 24, 2020

Have you noticed the 'Nothing's Better Than' bundle yet? You will want to check it out on page 91 of the Annual Catalog.

Candace made two CUTE cards with it and the new Rainbow Glimmer paper.

First up is a fun card with a ton of stitched die-cut circles from glimmer paper for a background.

Save

Her colors are Just Jade with Misty Moonlight and Early Espresso. The stitched circles are all part of the Rainbow Glimmer paper!

Save


Her next card uses the same bundle except she stamped and colored the chocolates and cookies this time. I believe she used watercolor pencils for her coloring.

Save

The 'Chocolate' greeting die-cut is the same Rainbow glimmer paper seen here! You can see this cute bundle here.

Huge Stamping Sale!!!

This weekend is our annual Stamping sale where many of my customers sell off their excess paper crafting supplies. I have a fantastic crew of helpers I call my 'committee'. They set up the sale, do the books, and basically run the entire thing! I am so blessed to have them. Luckily they love it but it's a ton of work!

If you live near us in ND it's so worth a road trip!!! Gather some friends and stop in Saturday!

Remember, this is not my stash! I usually do not sell things here anymore. I save my items for my BOGO sales.

Save

Because of the huge quantity of items and the large number of sellers, I am unable to take requests for wanted items. I'm so sorry about that. I know these photos are a big tease to those who do not live near me and I apologize!

Save

If you live near us in Minot, ND it's well worth a road trip! It's Saturday from 9-3 pm for everyone. The Early Bird sale starts Friday for my current customers (those who have shopped with me in the last 6 months).

Amazing Flowerbug Team swaps!

July 22, 2020

This week and next I'll be sharing a bunch of recent card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's.

The first card is made by Annette with the set called From All of Us on page 93 of the annual catalog. She used Blends markers to color the image in.

Save

Her colors are Granny Apple Green and Daffodil Delight. The card above was for last month and the one below was for July; both made by Annette.

This next card is a unique origami fold. I shared the 'how to' and video on this post here. I was grateful to Annette for demonstrating it at our last Team meeting. So easy and it sure highlights the main image!

Save

I LOVE the sign hanging on the cording!!

This card is made with the new Cinnamon Cider; one of our newest In Colors. She stamped the background tone-on-tone and the origami piece is made using the 6 X 6" 2020-22 In Color DSP. The stamp set is Back on Your Feet on page 92 of the Annual catalog.

Stay tuned for more fabulous swaps tomorrow!
