Rainbow of Happiness Easel card with video tutorial


The other card we made at my February card clubs was this bright rainbow easel card. We have so many wonderful rainbow themed products right now. 

Details:

  • The rainbows and small clouds are die-cut using the Rainbow dies (currently unavailable through March 28th). 
  • The rainbows are cut from the Ombre 12 X 12" Specialty paper in the annual catalog (seen here). 
  • The clouds are punched using the new Cloud punch from either the Simply Ombre DSP, the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP or the Supple Shimmer paper. *The cloud punch matched the Sunshine & Rainbow DSP perfectly! 
  • The stamped images are from the Rainbow of Happiness & the Celebrating You stamp set; both in the 2022 Jan-June catalog
  • The DSP inside the card is the Sunshine & Rainbow paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog; it's free with any $50 order. 
  • They could add either raindrops from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials or the Artistry Blooms sequins. 
  • The frame was made by cutting a rectangle from a 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS with the Stitched Rectangle dies.  

Have you noticed this gorgeous glimmery specialty paper in the annual catalog?  It's perfect for rainbows & that touch of glitter.

You can see the glimmer better in this close up. 

Did you know the Sunshine & Rainbows 6 X 6" DSP coordinates with our new Cloud punch?  The cloud punch is currently unavailable but it will be back after March 28th. 

 See the DSP here; it's so happy & bright.  Remember it's retiring after Monday; the last day of Sale-a-Bration.  It's free with any $50 order. 

They could add greetings inside the easel if they wanted to.  We used Night of Navy ink for all greetings.  

Measurements: 

  • Pool Party easel card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 3 3/4" & 5 1/2"
    Pool Party 4" X 5 1/4"
    White 4" X 5 1/4" for rectangle frame

  • Balloon Festoon surprise slider card with video tutorial


    I shared this CUTE card on last week’s Live video. We made it at my May card clubs:

    It features the Balloon Festoon bundle seen here and the Beautiful Ordinary Life designer series paper. Both are in the 2026 May – August catalog by Stampin’ Up! They pair up wonderfully together!

    It might look like a simple fun fold card but look how it opens:

    The inside greeting layer slides out when you open the front of the card. It’s super easy! Watch the video below to see my tips & tricks on this card fold.

    My colors include Pool Party, Crisp Cantaloupe, White & Daffodil Delight. I used the colors in the Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP as a guide.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here. Feel free to download it to print or save in your files for later.

    Below is the video tutorial; I hope you watch it! There’s a second card I share as well; I’ll feature that project in tomorrow’s post.

  • Cool technique for a background made with our new shimmer brushes


    Take your new Shimmer Brushes for a test drive with this darling DIY background idea. Stampin’ Up! posted this card idea; what a super neat plaid background!

    Here’s how you do it:

    Step 1: Draw diagonal lines on Basic White Cardstock using the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush. (Use the Clear Block F as a guide.) Apply light pressure to create fine lines; increase pressure for thicker lines.

     Step 2: Rotate your cardstock and (using the Clear Block F) draw additional lines to create a plaid pattern.

     Step 3: Decorate your sparkling background with images, sentiments, and embellishments, then adhere the finished piece to the card base.

    We now have 5 colors of these Shimmer Brushes in each of our new In Colors. See them all here.

    I hope this technique inspires you to try it. I think you could also do it with our Wink of Stella on any color CS.

    I have one Mystery Box left!

    Message me before you order to be sure it’s still available.
