From today through February 28th you can earn free product with your Stampin' Up! orders!  For every $50 or $00 you spend you can choose a free item.  Check it out here.

The new Mini Cut & Emboss machine is now available!  And when you purchase it you can choose a free SAB item too!

It's small, light weight and fits on your work surface so nicely!  It also fits many of our dies and you can see which ones by the special icon in the catalogs. 

This cute machine has a compact footprint for easy storage and travel. The 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) platform works with many of Stampin' Up!'s smaller dies and embossing folders. Includes 1 Mini Base Plate, 2 Mini Cutting Plates, 1 Mini Embossing Plate, and 1 Mini 3D Embossing Plate

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs?  It's always fun to play with brand new products.  Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.  

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos!  I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect.  If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here. 

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set.  It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4".  It's so cool!  

Navy layers are:

  • Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8" 

You might wonder what I used for the greeting.  The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them.  I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends.  The center piece is the Story Label punch.  The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here. 

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

    Today's project is one I made for two reasons.  One was to feature the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper in my weekly Live video and the other was for my Flowerbug's Team monthly card swap. 

    It's sweet & summery! 

    You might wonder where I got these shapes & flowers.  Well they are both from a sheet in the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper seen here.  Here's what the full sheet looks like:

    And the best part?  The new Inked & Tiled punch pack matches this paper perfectly with very little waste! 

    The punches are in a bundle with the Inked & Tiled stamp set here.  

    My card base is the beautiful new Bubble Bath pink.  I added a layer of Garden Green 3 7/8" C 2 5/8".  That is added to a Scalloped Contours die-cut measuring 4 1/2" X 3 1/8".  

    The greeting is heat embossed in White powder on a strip of Garden Green. Then I cut it into a 1/2" strip and used one of the punches to get that cute greeting shape.  


    This is one of the reasons I ordered these punches; for greetings.  But they sure make a sweet card front too.

    I think you could use other small images, stamped or designer paper, and do this same thing! 

    Below are all three of the cards I share in the video. Scroll down a bit or watch it here. 

    Here's the link to see a recent video featuring this card.  I also make two other cards made with the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper.

  • This cool ‘Fun Fold’ makes the most of your card stock & designer paper!!


    This easy fun fold is so smart!  It truly makes the most of both your card stock and your designer paper.  

    How?  Well the card base starts out at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2".  Then you cut off one end at the 3 1/4" mark.  This piece is then flipped and is the front panel.  So smart! 

    The greeting die-cut is from the Nested Essentials dies seen here. I love the shapes! 

    The Delightfully Eclectic designer paper seen here is also used well on this card layout.  This versatile designer paper is on sale now and is the best deal on DSP we have!  You get 48 12" X 12" sheets for $25.50 in June.

    The navy layer is 4" X 3"; perfect size to max out your 12" designer paper if making more than one.  And the vertical 'yellow' piece is 2" X 4" which is a wonderful size for either 12" DSP or 6" DSP. 

    I made over 20 of these for a swap so it helped me save on designer paper.   

    I used the Kindest Expressions stamp set seen here for the greeting.  The pretty flowers – different on each card – are from the Paper Florist dies seen here. 

    Here's the link to see my recent video featuring this card.  I also make two other cards made with the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper.

  • Brewed for You; a fabulous guys ‘fun fold’ card with video tutorial


    We made this special fun fold card for the dad's or men in our lives at a recent card club.  It features the Brewed for You stamp set and Brewed dies.  

    I LOVE the colors – Black, Smoky Slate, White and Crushed Curry.  This fun fold looks complicated but it's super easy!  

    Start out with a gatefold card, then you need a Black cardstock square and die-cut a square from the center.  Adhere the frame on one side and the solid square to the other. 

    It's fun to play with too.  We stamped the bottle, glass and spatter using Versamark ink onto the front of the card base.  Then added two strips of textured Crushed Curry card stock to each side. 

     

    See the stamp set here and the Brewed dies here. 

    The beer glass and mug were stamped in Smoky Slate and Crushed Curry.  Measurements and video can be seen below.

    Measurements:
    • Smoky Slate card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" from each end plus a strip for greeting
    • Crushed Curry 2 pieces 2 3/4" X 1 1/2"
    • Black 3 3/4" square; die-cut a square from the center; use both frame and inside square
    • White inside 4 3/4" X 3 1/2", scraps for beer & foam

    Click here or on the photo below to see this card made in my video.  It's one of three I share.
