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.

    I asked my Flowerbug's Team what the best part of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrators is.  I loved hearing their thoughts!
    • Discounts on stuff I would want to order anyway! 
    • Getting to see and order from new catalogs before everyone else!
    • Ordering what I want, when I want at a discounted rate and getting hostess goodies.
    • Social gatherings with friends & meeting new friends is a bonus!
    • I like that there's no pressure to sell, sell, sell. If you are motivated (and there is support to keep you motivated) the sky is the limit. But if you are in it for the joy of a creative outlet you have support for that too! Supportive upline and peers.
    • In no particular order: discount, first glance at catalogs, meeting with and creating with new friends, lots of support for taking your business where you want to go.
    • My favorite perk is discount with early sneak peeks, but I love the friendships made, with the help, support and sharing of ideas amongst each other.
    If you have a big wish list and/or place regular orders you should REALLY consider joining my Flowerbug's family so you get a discount off everything you purchase! 
     
    The starter kit is only 99.00 and FREE shipping, and you pick out 125.00 in Stampin' Up! product of your choice, PLUS just for June you can add on ANY Bundle for free! That's HUGE!

  • Jar of Flowers Double Flap Fun-fold card with video!


    The Jar of Flowers bundle is pretty neat and easy to create wonderful cards with.  We made these cards at my June card clubs.  It was sooo great getting together with my gals again. North Dakota is open to events again but we are still being cautious too.  

    You can really see the details on the card in this close up view.  That neat texture is the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  The colors are Misty Moonlight with Bumblebee and the In Good Taste designer paper. 

    There are sooo many wood, texture and patterns in this big pack of In Good Taste paper.  It is amazing!  Here's a good view of this paper.  

    Here's another version of the card using the jar and water image but the flowers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set.  This card was for those who didn't want to color. We added punched flowers using the Confetti Flowers Border punch seen here.  After punching we added a dot of Navy ink for the centers. 

    For this fold all I did was trim off an inch from the card front and add a flap that is hidden by the strip of In Good Taste DSP.  This flap is what the front panel is adhered to. Watch the video below! 

    The cards are finished off with a greeting from the Lovely You bundle – this is one of my favorite bundles!  I love the Pick a Punch and the Lovely You stamp set is full of wonderful greetings. 

     

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card 5 1/2" X 7 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      In Good Taste DSP 1" X 5 1/2"
      White – front and inside 4 1/8" X 3", scrap for greeting is 1/2" wide
      Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 4 3/8", flap is 1 3/4" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"
