Paper Scraps & Window dies; a perfect match up for incredible card ideas!

I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend.  We spent it with most of my kids – played games, made meals and watched a few shows.  It was nice & relaxing.

Here's another card I made with leftover scraps of card stock.  I shared this technique on my weekly Live video. See it here for tips.  

Diorama & scraps Save

It features lots of retiring product too; I checked yesterday and they're all still available!  

I shared two versions; the blues/greens and the rainbow. Which do you prefer?  

Scraps this or that Save

On this colorful version I used mostly retiring colors of Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody, Polished Pink as well as Coastal Cabana and the returning Berry Burst.  

Diorama rainbow Save

Here are all three of my window cards made with leftover cardstock strips.  I love using up my stash of scraps!  

The card on the lower left features the retiring Picture This dies seen here; they're on sale too!

  • A neat way to show off your Designer Paper with this easy layout

    Here's one more special card  made with the Nests of Winter designer series paper.  This paper can be seen in the 2024 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up! 

    I shared this card in a recent video along with two other fun fold cards. Scroll down to see it.

    The colors are Gray Granite & Cajun Craze. I thought the textured CS strip with twine wrapped around it was the perfect addition to this pretty scene.  This folder is called Birch Wood. The greeting is from the Unbounded Love stamp set. 

    I like that you can really show off your Designer Paper as well as add texture with the strip of CS beside it. This would make a great card layout to mass produce!

  • A Pretty Nests of Winter Diagonal fold card from the upcoming Holiday catalog

    Release of Close to My Heart products today! 

    If you didn't realize it, Stampin' Up! purchased product from Close to My Heart Earlier this year and have taken on any CTMH Makers that wanted to continue promoting stamping & scrapbooking products.  In the future we will be offering a larger line of Scrapbooking products!  This is great news for scrappers! Super Exciting!! 

    Before we get to today's project, I wanted you to be aware of some new products in the Online Store today. These items includes former Close to My Heart products that have only been available to CTMH customers until today. Know that these items will likely sell out fast as there isn't a large quantity of products.  

    See it all here. 

    And now for some stamping projects – I love everything about this card!  

    Winterly diagonal Save

    It features a brand new suite called Nests of Winter which is seen in the upcoming 2024 Holiday catalog. We made it at a team meeting a few months ago and I shared it and two other cards on last week's Live video. 

    The birds & branch are from the Nests of Winter designer paper, as well as the birch paper too.  So pretty!  My large circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies which are currently unavailable (for the umpteenth time!).

    It's almost a fun fold;  it's basically a standard Pool Party card that has the front panel cut off on the diagonal.  The designer paper starts out at 4" X 5 1/4" and is cut on the diagonal for 2 cards. Tip – make sure you cut it at the right angle – from bottom right to upper left.  (I did it wrong and wasted a piece) 

    Here's the inside view:

    This die-cut circle is from the Deckled Circle dies seen here. They're available only in the Online store right now. 

    Below is the video for other projects in this suite as well as sneak peaks of all of the upcoming 2024 Holiday Catalog designer papers!

  • Nests of Winter fun fold card with video tutorial & a free project sheet too!

    I shared this pretty fancy fold card on last week's Live video. It features an upcoming suite from the 2024 Holiday Catalog! This catalog goes live on Tuesday, September 3rd.  (If you're one of my customers you may have received yours by now!)

    *In the video seen here or below I also share ALL of the new Holiday designer papers!

    If you like layers it has tons of them! The very back of the card is a quarter sized piece and then there's a 11" X 4 1/4" folded layer that is attached over it. It's really neat and quite simple as well.  I created a project sheet for it too which you can see below.

    My colors include Garden Green, White & Moody Mauve. The Designer Paper is from the Wildly Flowering pack in the annual catalog. 

    That pretty greenery die-cut is from the Winterly Tree Tops bundle in the 2024 Holiday Catalog.  I colored it in with Blends markers. The circle & greeting layers are sponged lightly with green ink.  

    Here's the free project sheet; click on the following link to download or print it:  Download Winterly Tree Tops center fold card

    Below you can see all of the cards I made with this new suite called Nests of Winter. I'll share those in the next few days.
