Painted Poppies in a window


Adding dimension and interest to a clean & simple card can be a challenge.  Adding a window with the Stitched Nested Label dies does it easily.

I had this window piece in my bag of White scraps, so it was extra easy to make this card. I used the Stitched Nested Labels; which are a 'must have' in my opinion. Next time you want a die-cut, consider die-cutting it in the center of a larger piece so you can use both pieces! 

The top White piece is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4", the second White layer is 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".  The Granny Apple Green piece is 1 1/2" X 5 1/2".

Just like yesterday's card I used my Dark Poppy Parade blends marker to color the new 1/4" White Crinkled ribbon for the bow. Both of the images are stamped in Black Memento ink. I colored the green leaves and bud with a Granny Apple Green Blends marker.  The poppy flower is colored by stamping with one of the stamps in the Painted Poppies set.  

The greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts stamp set; it's free with any $50 order right now during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  You can see all of the free items here. 

I love the new Peaceful Poppies suite and have created 10 project sheets to send to everyone who places an order in January.  Details below:

  • Gorgeous Delicate Lace Thinlits on sale; while supplies last!


    This pretty card is a project we made at my Card Clubs in May.  I found it on Pinterest.  I just had to use some of these retiring items one more time before they're gone for good!  

    Retiring items:

    The Petal Pink & Champagne ribbon and the Magnolia Lane designer paper is sold out now but they do still have the bulk package.  It includes 20 sheets of two different double sided patterns of this pretty paper including the one I used here!  You can see it here. 

    My favorite deal on the Last Chance list are these gorgeous edgelit dies (seen here).  I cannot believe they're just $11.60 instead of $29 originally.  Remember they're on the list while supplies last!

  • A Good Man double point fold card; it’s super easy!


    It was so nice to be able to meet and stamp with many of my Club members this month.  Our state has eased the guidelines for meetings so most of my gals chose to join me for Club this month.  Many of us really needed to get together and play/stamp again. 

    One of our cards was this Double Point fold card; it's super cool and so very easy!

    And it really makes the best use of your designer paper.  Not a bit of waste!  Each card needs two pieces of 3" X 4" designer paper.  Score it at 1" along the long edge and then fold each corner to the center of the fold like this: 

    I used the Come Sail Away designer series paper here; it's still available while supplies last here. 

    Here's a quick video for you on putting this card together.  I used the A Good Man stamp set and as you can see; you don't have to color in some of these sketch style images.  They're beautiful just as they are!

  • Easy Seriously the Best Diagonal Strips cards


    I made these fun diagonal stripes cards on a recent Facebook Live.  It's so simple to do!  

    I used one of my favorite stamp sets; Seriously the Best here. I love the pretty bold font!  You can see it here.  It also coordinates with the Seriously the Best cards kit; which is 60% off! 

    I chose to use the retiring 6 X 6" 2019-21 In Color paper pack.  It's still available while supplies last and is sale right now here!


    The strips are 1" long; you need about two of each at 1" X 6".  Here's how to make it:

    • You'll need one piece of White CS measuring 4" X 5 1/4" to adhere the strips to.
    • Adhere two DSP strips across from end to end leaving a little space between the two.  Tip: 6" is a little short so I cut the Peacock strip in half and separated it a bit under the greeting.
    • Now you'll add short lengths of DSP perpendicular to the first two strips, alternating colors and leaving a bit of space between them all.
    • Now you can trim off the excess even with the original White CS piece.  
    • Adhere to your main card (5 1/2" X 8 1/2") 

    You might notice the cute little flowers on the greeting tags and that pretty, stitched die-cut.  Well these are new products coming out in the upcoming new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog!  The flowers are a new border punch and the dies are part of the Tasteful Label dies. 

    You can order these items on June 3rd! (or purchase the Stampin' Up! Starter kit and you can add them to your $125 in product!)  Read about that here.
