Retro Circles layout with a quick video. So unique & versatile!


I hope you had a nice Christmas weekend!  We sure did.  It's one of my favorite times of the year; one time where all of my kids are home and we're all together. 

Here's another card we made at my December card clubs.  It was such a hit on Facebook Live Stamp with Me that I had to do it at Club too.  It's a great way to show off your designer paper with this retro style.  Scroll down to see the video. 

You just need three circles of different sizes.  I used the Stitched Shapes dies so they have the extra detail of stitches on the edges.  I use these dies so much!  If you don't have them I highly recommend them. See them here. 

I used the Brightly Gleaming specialty DSP here and instead of the copper foiled side I used the other side which has Navy, Mossy Meadow & Island Indigo.

The stamped images are from the Itty Bitty Birthday & Lots to Celebrate stamp sets.  Just one ink color; Night of Navy. 

Below are the cards we made on one of my Monday night Stamp with Me FB lives.  See that video here.  

The above cards were made with various designer papers & stamp sets.  The top is Classic Christmas, left is Heartwarming Hugs and right is Snowflake Splendor. 

Measurements:

  • Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Neutral (White or Vanilla) is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  • Greeting strip is 1/2" X 5" 
  • Circles are the largest three stitched circle dies 1 3/4", 2 3/8" & 2 7/8"

  • A Good Man double point fold card; it’s super easy!


    It was so nice to be able to meet and stamp with many of my Club members this month.  Our state has eased the guidelines for meetings so most of my gals chose to join me for Club this month.  Many of us really needed to get together and play/stamp again. 

    One of our cards was this Double Point fold card; it's super cool and so very easy!

    And it really makes the best use of your designer paper.  Not a bit of waste!  Each card needs two pieces of 3" X 4" designer paper.  Score it at 1" along the long edge and then fold each corner to the center of the fold like this: 

    I used the Come Sail Away designer series paper here; it's still available while supplies last here. 

    Here's a quick video for you on putting this card together.  I used the A Good Man stamp set and as you can see; you don't have to color in some of these sketch style images.  They're beautiful just as they are!

  • Easy Seriously the Best Diagonal Strips cards


    I made these fun diagonal stripes cards on a recent Facebook Live.  It's so simple to do!  

    I used one of my favorite stamp sets; Seriously the Best here. I love the pretty bold font!  You can see it here.  It also coordinates with the Seriously the Best cards kit; which is 60% off! 

    I chose to use the retiring 6 X 6" 2019-21 In Color paper pack.  It's still available while supplies last and is sale right now here!


    The strips are 1" long; you need about two of each at 1" X 6".  Here's how to make it:

    • You'll need one piece of White CS measuring 4" X 5 1/4" to adhere the strips to.
    • Adhere two DSP strips across from end to end leaving a little space between the two.  Tip: 6" is a little short so I cut the Peacock strip in half and separated it a bit under the greeting.
    • Now you'll add short lengths of DSP perpendicular to the first two strips, alternating colors and leaving a bit of space between them all.
    • Now you can trim off the excess even with the original White CS piece.  
    • Adhere to your main card (5 1/2" X 8 1/2") 

    You might notice the cute little flowers on the greeting tags and that pretty, stitched die-cut.  Well these are new products coming out in the upcoming new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog!  The flowers are a new border punch and the dies are part of the Tasteful Label dies. 

    You can order these items on June 3rd! (or purchase the Stampin' Up! Starter kit and you can add them to your $125 in product!)  Read about that here.

  • Morning Star


    Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet?  It's called Morning Star (seen here) and is one of Stampin' Up!'s distinktive type of stamps. This means you can get multiple hues of color with just one inking.  It's amazing!  

    It is retiring next week so if you'd like it, get it now! Here's a few cards I created when playing with it.  I think this set has been a bit of a sleeper; lost among the many favorite in the 2020 January-June catalog.  

    Here I used Old Olive and Gorgeous Grape; one of my favorite green and purple combos.  Because this stamp set is photopolymer you can easily stamp the images just where you want them, placing them perfectly.

    Here are the measurements and supplies:

    • Old Olive 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
    • Regals designer paper 5 1/4" X 1 7/8"
    • Gorgeous Grape 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • White 4 1/2" X 3 3/8"
    • Label Me Fancy Punch, Grape striped ribbon, dimensionals, mini glue dots 

    Here's another simple card made with this pretty stamp set this time in green & blue: 

    I chose to use Pear Pizzazz with Night of Navy here.  This is our Neutrals designer paper pack and it is already out of stock.  It was on the Last Chance list seen here.  I'll miss these pretty patterns although we are getting new packs of 6" designer paper in the upcoming catalog.

    Measurements:

    • Pear Pizzazz 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Navy designer paper 5 1/4" X 2"
    • White – 5 1/4" strip for the Ornate Style die-cut
    • White 3 1/4" X 2 1/2"
    • Navy 3 1/2" X 3"
    • Ornate Style dies, Olive/Terracotta Tile 1/4" ribbon, Noble Peacock rhinestones
