Quick All Aflutter card with the Extraordinary Washi tape

June 23, 2026

Here’s a sweet card made with both the All Aflutter bundle and the Extraordinary Washi tape:

My colors include Calypso Coral, Old Olive and White. The Arches dies used in White here give a wonderful focal point to highlight the butterflies, greeting and flowers from the Washi tape. Unfortunately they are out of stock currently; but see them here and put your email in to get notified when they’re back in stock.

The background texture on the Old Olive layer is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder. This folder is super popular and out of stock right now. Again, please add your email to be notified when it’s available.

I love the Extraordinary Washi tape with coordinating die. You can cut out lots of colored flowers and leaves with ONE CUT! I save the extras to use them when I need just a little something extra. See the Washi tape here (you get 10 yards!) and the coordinating die-cut here. There’s also a bundle you can get here; it includes both the stamps and die-cut.

It’s simple to use this washi tape! Start by adhering a strip of it to white card stock (vellum or window sheet also works). Then use the die-cut to cut all of the pieces out.

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it out.

There’s also a video tutorial for this card and another sweet All Aflutter fun fold card. See it below.

Use the Double Wonder Template to make 11 quick cards! Join me Thursday night!

April 29, 2020
Do you ever planned a stamping session focusing on just a few products? It's easy to get overwhelmed with everything you own. Using this method is actually quite liberating and fuels the creative process. I've started doing that more and more often especially when planning my card kits to go. I pick Stampin' Up! products from the same suite and choose some sketches or layouts for card ideas. the process is so enjoyable this way!

Lately I've been seeing groups of cards using the Double Wonder template and had to try it. It was originally designed by Shannon West from Stampin' Up! It's so clever!! You start out with 2 pieces of 6" X 12" designer paper and using the pieces you can quickly have 11 finished cards!

Look at these! I'll be making these cards Live tomorrow night at 7 pm CT. Join me either here on FB or on Zoom.

Here are the steps:
1. Pick out 2 different sheets of 6 X 12" designer paper and 11 card bases. Make sure you have some ribbons or embellishments to match.
2. Use the template below to cut your designer paper; cutting both at once.
3. Grab some scraps of White and coordinating colors for punches/greetings.
4. Cut 4 pieces of layering card stock at 3 1/4" X 5" and one 3 3/4" square for the bonus card. (I used White)
5. Choose a stamp set & ink to coordinate.
6. Or use the new Share Sunshine Covid-19 digital download like I did for my greetings. No stamping needed! You can purchase that here. https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca Price: $12.00 USD
7. Come back here tomorrow night so we can stamp together.
8. Or use this link to join via Zoom. *see tips on zoom meetings below https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88215870191
I chose to use the new Ornate Garden designer paper for my cards. Anything goes but a non directional design is best; try not to choose a paper that needs to be north and south.
