Yesterday I shared a card seen here made with these two new products and today I'm sharing another one.  I found it easy to create with the Petal Park bundle and the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  They're coming out in the upcoming 2023 Spring Catalog by Stampin' Up!. I love them both! 

 

 

Details:

  • I stamped the 'Thanks' greeting on the White panel before I textured it with the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder.  
  • The flowers are stamped in Petal Pink and Night of Navy.  The leaves are fussy cut. 
  • The 'for everything' greeting is stamped and die-cut with the new Something Fancy dies
  • The Soft Sea Foam green card base is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
  • The white panel is 4 1/4" X 2 3/4"; the Navy is 4 1/2" X 3". 
  • The Petal Pink layer is 2 1/2" X 4".  I used the outline leaf image to stamp a background using Petal Pink ink. 

I think I'll get a lot of use of the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  I love that you can create your own greetings by putting together the large cursive words with the smaller printed words.  So versatile!

Here are the 22 swaps I made.  The two main colors are soft & fresh yet the addition of Navy brings it all together & makes it pop. I feel like Navy is slightly softer than Black, which is another of my favorite ways to add a depth of color.  

Thanks for reading up to this point; I hope you're excited about the upcoming Spring catalog.  It's filled with all kinds of fresh, new products!  

**If you don't have a local demonstrator I'm happy to send you the new 2023 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs for $5.  If you've ordered from me in the past year; I'll send them to you free.

  • Check out these Team swap cards!


    Today I'm sharing a few of our August Flowerbug's Team swaps.  Our theme was to create a card without a greeting on the front.  It was quite the challenge for some of us!!  

    First is a fractured card made by Karen.  She shared how to make it and we were all blown away by how easy it is! 

    I loved it so much I shared how to make it in a recent video.  See it here and my blog post here. 

    She featured the Inked Botanicals designer paper and the Trucking Along bundle.  The Truck builder punch is unavailable at this time; it will be back in October.  Her card base & 1/4" strips are Calypso Coral.  Love that truck full of flowers!

    ~~~

    Next is a sweet card made by Sharon who chose the Cheerful Daisies bundle seen here. 

    She added lots of die-cut daisies & leaves; some are sponged. She added the circles image (from Timeless Arrangements) using the Baby Wipe method.  Love this look!  And after stamping the circles she textured it with one of the Basics 3D embossing folders (online exclusive).  Plus she colored the White glittered ribbon (another online exclusive) by sponging on color.  So many great details! 

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card made by Mary who featured the Darling Details bundle seen here. 

    The pretty & delicate frame adds beautiful detail to the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper in the center.  Her colors are Fresh Freesia, Night of Navy and Crushed Curry.  

    This wonderful bundle may have slipped your notice; here's a photo of both the stamp set & dies:

  • The easy way to make a ‘Fractured’ card! Video tutorial & free project sheet!


    You may have seen these cards online lately; they're quite popular.  It looked s bit intimidating to me; I thought I'd have to do a lot of measuring to get the pieces to fit exactly.  

    Well my team member Karen shared how to make them at our August Team meeting and I was surprised to learn it's quite easy peasy!  So I had to share the fractured card on a recent Live video so YOU could see how fun & quick it is.

    I chose to use the Hello, Irresistible designer paper and the Irresistible Blooms stamp set; both Online Exclusives. See all of our products available online here.  There are so many they have their own category!  

    This card starts out with a full 4" X 5 1/4" layer of designer paper.  The center squares and strips are added on directly over the designer paper!  No measuring needed!!

    This pretty designer paper is in low inventory.  Do you have it yet?  It's just beautiful!

    My center squares are approximately 2" in size and are from the Stylish Shapes dies – the middle die of the 5 square dies. I chose to add a 2 1/4" layer under my square.  

    Tip: Once you adhere your square to the upper center (eyeballing, no measuring needed) you will start adding your 1/4" X 5" strips of card stock.  You start at the upper center.  Leave the excess strips hanging off the card until you're done; then just trim off.  *watch the video below to see my helpful tips for success. 

    Here are both cards I shared in the video; one in Pretty Peacock and the other in Petal Pink. 

     

    Which do you prefer?  One is soft and pretty and the other is vibrant. I like the 1/4" strips to match the card base; I feel it gives a greater sense of continuity.  

    I kept these cards quite simple but you could certainly add more to it.  

    Click here or on the photo below to watch the video.  I believe it will give you the confidence to try it.

  • Bendy Window card with free PDF & video tutorial!


    I shared this super unique fun fold card on last week's Live video.  If you're on Facebook please follow me here for my weekly Tuesday morning videos. If not, you can always follow my YouTube channel here.  

    As you can see it looks a bit tricky… but with my step by step tutorial it's not!  I do have a PDF project sheet for it but even with the written instructions I the video posted below will help a lot.  

    I chose to use the Irresistible Blooms bundle and the Hello, Irresistible 6 X 6" designer paper (currently in low inventory). Both of these are Online Exclusives.  My colors are Lost Lagoon with Soft Sea Foam.  

    There is a little fold of card stock under the stamped White tag that pops it up when the card is opened. 

    Here's a peek at it.  There are three rolled up mini glue dots on the peak of this piece that adheres the tag to it.  

    I made a second version during the video using Petal Pink card stock. 

    Here's the PDF project sheet with measurements & a supplies list: Download Bendy Window card tutorial sheet.  Which one do you prefer?
