Prized Peony bundle; wow!


Look at these gorgeous cards Mary and Karen made for a Flowerbug's Team swap last month.  They both used items in the new Peony suite seen here. 

Mary's colors are Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam with Gray Granite.  She sponged a bit of Petal Pink onto the Peony petals.  The other products here are the new Vellum square doilies and Elegant Faceted Gems. that designer paper is from the In Good Taste package seen here. 

Karen used the Peony Garden designer paper as a background and the new Magenta Madness card stock with Pear Pizzazz & Old Olive for leaves.  That pretty scalloped edge is included in the Peony dies.  

You might think it's difficult to put the peony flower together, but Stampin' Up! made it super easy.  It's just 4 die-cuts and they layer easily.  You match up the bottom edge of each die-cut for a perfect fit each time.  I made a video of it here on FB.

  • Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold card


    Finally I can share this beautiful fun fold card we made at my May Card Clubs!  

    I like to wait until after all of my Clubs are held so I can surprise them with the cards we're making.  I'm not sure why; it's just a habit now after many years of doing it that way!  

    I chose to use the Beauty of Friendship bundle (seen here) to make this unique 'Latch fold'. 

    I chose to use a few of our new In Colors; So Succulent & Evening Evergreen along with Pool party.  It sure created a pretty, almost monochromatic card.  Everyone sure loved it; which is always my goal!

    This fold is very deceiving but so simple!  Just a little trick at the end to put it all together.  Watch the video below! 

    Download the Beauty of Friendship latch fold card project sheet or use these measurements:

    • Pool Party 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 3 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 2 3/4" along the 3 1/4" side
      Whisper White 2" X 5 1/4", 2 1/2" X 3 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4" inside, plus a scrap for die-cut
      Evening Evergreen – scrap for 2 1/4" circle

  • Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video


    I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest.  I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

    The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month. 

    Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle.  This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.  

    I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion.  There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words.  My favorite is 'Happy Mail'.  Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying?  It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.  

    For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set. 


    I made a quick video on putting this card together.  You can see it below.

  • Pretty is the word for the Hand Penned suite!


    This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite.  I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents. 

    That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen here on page 131 of the new Annual catalog.  It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June. 

    I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.  Click here to see the bundle.

    The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.
