Sunshine & Rainbows Bridge Fun Fold cards – Live video tonight!!


We're making these bright & happy Fun Fold cards tonight during Stamp with Me Live.  Gather your supplies & stamp along with me!  It's tonight, Monday January 24th at 7:30 pm CT.  click here to join in or to watch. 

The Sunshine & Rainbows DSP is one of the happiest group of papers I've seen in awhile.  It's 6 X 6" in size and one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February 28th.  It's free with any $50 order; see it here. Pair it with the Rainbow of Happiness Bundle (seen here) to add additional patterns and rainbow-themed greetings.

Every few weeks on Monday nights I host a Stamp with Me Live where you can stamp along with me, using whatever products you already own.  *I share the products & measurements 2 days before the Live on my FB Page. (see them below)

Did you know there are prizes?? After the video I post a 'Let's Share' post where you can share a photo of your cards.  Ikeep it open for 2 weeks & draw a door prize among those posted.  

Here are both versions I made: 

Here are the measurements & supplies needed:

– Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"; scored at 4 1/4". We'll cut the sides during the Live. Have your paper cutter handy.
– DSP – 2 pieces at 7/8" X 4", 1 piece at 3" X 4" (I used Sunshine & Rainbows Sale-a-Bration)
– 1 or 2 pieces of CS for the horizontal piece – 1 1/8" X 5 1/2" & 1" X 5 1/2"
– punches or dies for greetings/accents
– Stamps & ink (Special Moments SAB stamp set & Navy ink)

I hope you join me!  For those who are not on Facebook the video will be posted later.  Or see it on my YouTube channel later this week. 

Details:

  • I used the new Brilliant Rainbow dies for that colorful rainbow.  It is cut out of this Sunshine & Rainbows DSP!  It coordinates wonderfully!  
  • I stamped the greeting from the Special Moments stamp set (Free during SAB) on our new Cloud Punch.

  • Sentimental Park with Country Gingham DSP card swap


    I always join a bunch of online swaps with each new catalog.  It's so much easier to make a bunch of one card than it is to make one of several different cards for my display boards.  

    Here's one I made with the Sentimental Park bundle seen here.  


    I chose to use the Country Gingham 6 X 6" designer paper pack; it has multiple gingham patterns in just a few colors.  I added White & Blushing Bride to it.  

    Notice that pretty white die-cut for the greeting; it has attached floral design on opposing corners for some pretty detail. There are two sizes of this type of die in this bundle and one without the side details.  This one fits inside the largest one; the floral detail has slits on the inside to allow the smooth die-cut to fit right in!  

    The Blushing Bride oval is from the Framed Florets dies. The pretty texture on the White banner is done with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here; also new in the Spring catalog.  

    My measurements are simple:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 2" X 4"
    • White banner strip 1 1/4" X 5"

    Notice the alternate print I used on some of the swaps below; I love having a few choices in similar patterns.  

    I'll share some photos of my new catalog party from Saturday later this week.  Stop back in!

    Do you know about our Kits Collection?  It features many types of kits; perfect for all kinds of crafters.  They're also a wonderful gift to give since everything but a scissors is included.  

    Some feature ink and stamps and others are ready to assemble with pre-printed greetings.  You can see them all here.  

    Stampin' Up! recently added three new kits. 

    This first kit is called Saying Thanks starts today and includes 9 colorful cards with envelopes.  See it here.

    Below are all of the elements in the kit.  It's a non-stamping kit; everything is printed for you.  It's perfect for quick cards or a gift!

  • Dainty Flowers cards with time saving tips!


    I made this pretty card in just a few minutes with 1/8 of a 12 X 12" piece of the Dainty Flowers designer paper.  That means you can get 8 cards from each sheet! 

    I made the first cut across at 5 1/2".  Then cut each piece at 3" wide.  This gorgeous print is just one of many in this pack.  It's free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from January 5th – February 28th.  See it here. 

       

    If you don't have the ribbon color you want, color it with a Blends marker.  Our Blends markers come in a 2-pack of light and dark; try both to see which one fits your needs.  And did you know that if you go over it more than once you can get a darker shade?  This works on both paper AND ribbon! 

    If you're making multiples of the same card AND heat embossing why not stamp & heat emboss multiples at the same time?  

    I inked the greetings (from Dainty Delight) in Versamark ink and stamped on the Old Olive CS. Then covered in White embossing powder before heat embossing with the Heat Tool.  Now I could trim them into strips for my cards.  

    Tip; you cannot do an entire page at once or the ink dries before you can get powder on it.  I did 4-5 at a time and it works fine.  It all depends on how fast you can cover it with powder.  

    **Before stamping I swiped my card stock with the embossing buddy. This is an anti-static bag that prevents excess powder from sticking where you don't want it.  The embossing buddy is included in our Embossing Additions Tool Kit seen here. 

    You can see more cards in this video I shared on Tuesday.  Click here or on the photo below:
