Springtime Scenes diagonal fold – 2 ways!


I’m excited to share this neat card with you today. We made it at my April Card Clubs.

Isn’t it beautiful? It features the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here and the Delicate Dreams DSP seen here. This DSP is so pretty they cannot keep it in stock! Be sure to add your email to the product so you get notified when it comes back in stock.

This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.

My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.

We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, directions, photos and supplies listed. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial with tips on assembly.

  • Perched in a Tree Explosion card with video tutorial!


    I can't stop using the Aspen dies!  I absolutely love this tree die-cut!  

    Did you know these dies are free during August with our Sale-a-Bration promotion?  Any $100 Stampin' Up! order and they're yours free! 

    I created this card on last week's FB Live video.  You can watch it here.  

    For the card front, I simply added a layer of the Rings of Love DSP behind it for a soft background.  You can keep it this simple or create your own background!  

    However I made the inside of the card extra special with an Explosion fold. These look so difficult to do but honestly they're not!  Please watch the video; afterwards you'll want to make one!

    The left card has the Rings of Love DSP and the card on the right features the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  For greetings I used the Soft Seedlings & Perched in a Tree stamp sets.  

    I also shared an easy ribbon trick in the video; if you have trouble with bows I hope you watch.  

    Measurements: 

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • DSP – 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”, inside is 8” square
    • Greeting strip 1” X 4”
    • White 4” X 5 ¼” & inside is 3 ½” square

  • Stamparatus ‘Step’ technique with Amazing Phrasing set


    I played with the Rings of Love DSP on this week's FB Live and this is one of the cards I made.  It's so bright & cheery!

    I wanted to really show off the fun phrases you can create from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set seen here. I used just a bit of my favorite pattern in the Rings of Love DSP seen here.  That was my inspiration for the colors – Mint Macaron, Poppy Parade & Petal Pink.  

    In the video I show you how easy it is to get the images stamped perfectly in place.  It is quite simple yet crazy cool!  

    I did stamp the 'amazing' one extra time and fussy cut it to pop it up on the card front.  I also colored a few rhinestones with Blends markers to add some coordinating sparkle.  

    The Rings of Love DSP is free with any $50 order and the Amazing Phrasing stamp set is free with a $100 order.  I love Sale-a-Bration!!

  • Sweet Songbird candy nest box – a cute & easy project!


    Marilyn brought this adorable little treat basket to our Flowerbug's Team gathering a few months ago.  I can't believe I haven't shared it here yet! 

    She used the Sweet Songbirds stamp set & punch bundle to make it.  See this bundle here. 

    Isn't it cute!?  She stamped the nests in Soft Suede ink onto Soft Suede card stock and fussy cut them out – one for the front and one for the back. 

    The box is made with a 3 1/4" square of Soft Suede card stock. Score at 1" on all sides. Cut up on four of the score lines to form your box.  Glue the 2 fussy cut nests on the front & back. It fits a few wrapped chocolates inside.  

    *Tip; before you form your basket, stamp a greeting on the bottom panel if you wish.  Smart! 

    She stamped the greeting on a strip of Crumb Cake card stock and curled it around a toothpick. It's glued behind the bird. 

    The bird is punched using the Bird Builder punch from Real Red card stock.  She sponged around the edges slightly to accent the wing etc.  The belly is in White and is also punched out.  

    It's just the sweetest little treat!  Thank you Marilyn!
