I played with the Rainbow of Happiness bundle on Facebook Live earlier this week.  Here's a neat shaker card I made:

Shaker cards look difficult but they're fun AND easy!  Watch the video below to see how it's done.

The Rainbow of Happiness bundle is 10% off in our Spring catalog.  See it here.  I just noticed it's on low inventory. That means when they run our it will not be available again until the product is restocked. That Global Shipping issue you know!!

It's hard to see in the photo above but the paper inside the shaker is our Rainbow Glimmer specialty paper from the annual catalog.  I share a neat trick to get these rainbow die-cuts in place in the video below or click here. 

Here's a close up of another:

Here are some details:

• The large rainbow is made with the Brilliant Rainbow dies – it's part of the Rainbow of Happiness bundle. 
• The small clouds are die-cut from our Supple Shimmer paper & the Rainbow dies
• The sequins & beads in the shaker are from the Sparkle & Shine sequins
• I used our Foam Adhesive strips on the back side of the White die-cut piece to raise it and keep the shaker pieces in place.
• The large clouds are punched with our new Cloud Punch. One is punched from the Sunshine & Rainbows free DSP during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here.

The card above on the left has a cloud bank made with our Border Basic dies and our new Supple Shimmer paper.  Stampin' Up! is terrific at coordinating their products so incredibly.  

The shaker card is the first project I make in the video below. Click on it to watch!

• Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

  This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not!

  Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

  The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!

  If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

  I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

  And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

• Have you made a ‘Book-binding Easel’ card yet? It’s so neat!

  May 12, 2023

  ---

  This cool card is made like a traditional book binding fold but turned into an easel card too! 

  Save

  I used Berry Burst & Misty Moonlight or Blueberry Bushel for my layers. That cute tag on the front is from the Beautiful Balloons dies.  The stars that hold up the easel are die-cuts from the same dies.  You need to add a Dimensional on one of them. Watch the video here or scroll down. 

  You can see this bundle here online.

  I stamped the inside with the banner in multiple colors, some stamped off.

  Here's what the card looks when it's flat:

• Beautiful Balloons with Bright & Beautiful designer series paper

  May 11, 2023

  ---

  I've been playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle and thought making my own background with the balloon images would be cool.  

  Save

  I chose a few of our newest colors to compliment the Bright & Beautiful designer series paper seen here.  My colors are Bubble Bath, Lemon Lime Twist and Boho Blue.  I love that the images appear somewhat translucent like real balloons.  

  Save

  *I'll be featuring this fun designer paper in next month's card kit to go. 

  It's an easy fun fold card too. I stamped the greeting on a stamped large balloon and die-cut it with one of the dies in the bundle.   

  Measurements:

  • Bubble Bath card stock is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" & scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
  • designer paper is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
  • White 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" 
  • Black 3 3/8" X 4 5/8" 

  I had fun stamping the inside (3 1/2" X 4 3/4") with the balloon string and confetti images.
