  • Double Pillar Window card technique with video; it’s so cool you’ll want to try it!

    I made this card on Tuesday's Live video; it's a Double Pillar Window card!  It has so much dimension and is also fun to play with. 

    Adorable Owls popup Save

    I used the Stitched Rectangle dies – 4 different sizes – on this card. Two for the Country Gingham designer paper frame and two for the Navy frame/layer that's popped up.  *These are a must have! 

    *If you do have these dies I used the 5th & 3rd from the largest for the designer paper frame. For the card stock I used 6th and 2nd from the largest.

    Adorable Owls popup Save

    As you can see, I used the Adorable Owls stamp set.  It's available with our Sale-a-Bration promotion in January & February 2023; while supplies last.  It's actually free with any $50 purchase.  See it here.  

    Adorable Owl popup frame Save

    See the pillars under the top layer?  They are about 3/8" X 3" and fit right inside the DSP window under the upper layer.  They fold down flat for mailing.

    Measurements: 

    • Navy CS 5 ½” X 8 ½” and stitched die-cut 4 ¾” X 3 3/8” outside size
    • 4” X 5 ¼” DSP, cut with Stitched Rectangles. Pillars – 2 pieces 3” X 1 7/8” DSP; scored every 3/8”
    • White 3 ½” X 2 ½” inside frame, Inside layer is 4 ¾” X 3 ½”

    Here's the inside view.  I colored the owls with Blends markers.  The stitched stars and clouds are from the Give it a Whirl dies seen here.

  • See lots of Fancy fold cards with the Control Freaks Blog Hop!

    It's been awhile since I joined the Control Freaks Blog Hop!  The fun theme of Fancy Folds is right up my alley. 

    Control freak welcome Save

    You may have joined us from Melissa's blog; make sure to click on the icon at the end of each post to see every fancy fold card. 

    I'm excited to share this fabulous 'Pop-Up Window Frame' card; it has so much dimension! 

    Adorable Owls popup frames Save

    It featuring the Adorable Owls stamp set from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! purchase in January & February of 2023.  

    The designer paper is the Country Gingham 6 X 6" from the Spring catalog.  The card colors include Night of Navy, Sweet Sorbet & Balmy Blue.  The layered frame is raised about 1/2" from the card base and is supported by two long boxes made of Designer Paper.  

    Adorable Owls popup Save

    Isn't that cool?  These boxes can lay down so the entire upper panel folds flat for mailing.  Love that!!  

    Of course to create the neat window frame you will need the Stitched Rectangle dies.  I used 4 of the dies to make this card!  The stitched stars and clouds are die-cuts from the Give it a Whirl dies. The sweet owls are colored in with our Blends markers. 

    Measurements: 

    • Navy CS 5 ½” X 8 ½” and stitched die-cut 4 ¾” X 3 3/8” outside size
    • 4” X 5 ¼” DSP, cut with Stitched Rectangles. 3” X 1 7/8” DSP; scored every 3/8”
    • White 3 ½” X 2 ½” inside frame, Inside card is 4 ¾” X 3 ½”

    ~~~

    Next is a neat card I call a 'Vertical Slider'.  It's basically a gatefold card with an element in the center that is either fixed or removeable.  

    It features the Adorable Owls stamp set again along with the Dandy Designs designer series paper.  Both are free during oru Sale-a-Bration promotion in January & February 2023.  

    Dec club Adorable owls Save

    I colored the owls with our Blends markers.  Adding the 'Hoot Hoot' by fussy cutting it and adding it around the owl brings a bit of playfulness to the card. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end
    • DSP 1 7/8" X 5 1/4" – 2 pieces plus a strip 3/4" X 4" for inside
    • White stitched square 2 3/8"; inside is 4" X 5 1/4" & three 2" circles
    • largest square 2 3/4", middle square 2 5/8"

    Here's the inside view: 

    Dec club Adorable owls Save

    There are three 2" circles adhered together to create this sliding element.  Fold two in half and adhere them to the last flat circle.  Be sure to adhere the folded circles to the back of your main element with the flat circle on top; it holds the card closed best this way.  You can see how this is done in the video. 

    If you prefer to adhere this center element to your card permanently, just adhere it to the left side of your card front and allow the right flap to 'catch or latch' it closed.  

    I'll share the video tomorrow or click here to see it on my YouTube Channel.

  • More incredible By the Bay card samples!

    Yesterday I shared 5 gorgeous cards my team member Bobby made with the By the Bay suite. See the entire suite here. 

    She is our Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team and chose the Seaside Bay bundle for her projects.  She is a very talented stamper and a fabulous photographer too! 

    This first card is unbelievable Pillar Pop-Up card and was cased from Rachel Tessman. 

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-13 Save

    It's so cool!  This card truly shows off this suite and the stunning gold accents in the By the Bay designer paper.  

    Can you see the little DSP pillars in the photo below?  The entire upper panel is adhered to two little pillars and they fold flat for mailing too.  I had to make one myself and chose to use the Adorable Owls for my card.  You can see it here on my video.  Measurements too! 

    Seaside Bay 7 Save

    This next card is a Book Binding fold. Her card base is Balmy blue and that pretty shell designer paper is adhered to narrow White layers. 

    It also shows off the soft Balmy Blue variegated ribbon that's new in our Spring catalog.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-10 Save
    When making a book binding fold card you will adhere the front left edge to the back so only the large layer on the left opens.  Tip: If adding ribbon you may want to wrap it behind before you secure the scored edge together.  

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/2" & 5 1/2"
    • White 4 1/8" X 7/8" and 4 1/8" square
    • DSP 3/4" X 4" and 4" square

    BY THE BAY 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    See the By the Bay 6 X 6" specialty designer paper here.  It's so beautiful I chose it for one of my January card kits to go.  I have just 3 left; see the kit or PDF here.  

    Next is a simple but super pretty card with just a square of the By the Bay designer paper set onto a layer of Gold Foil.  The nice thing about doing this is you can die-cut your elements from the center of the Gold foil and no one can tell!  


    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-4 Save

    Cards with mostly White draw your eye to the main element as you can see here.  She stamped her greeting on the White layer before texturing it with the Timeworn Type embossing folder seen here.  Pool Party is her accent color.  

    Measurements:

    • The DSP is 2 7/8" square and the gold foil is 3" square. 
    • The white layer is 4" X 5 1/4" and Pool Party is 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" 

    Her next card is an easel card and it shows off the clam shell die in the Seaside Bay bundle.  It is scored and hinges open to reveal a pretty pearl gem inside.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-4 Save
    She cased it from Julia Quinn.  That pretty clam shell and the designer paper layer is what holds the easel up.  So neat!  

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • Sahara Sand easel 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4 and 6"
    • White – 2 pieces measuring 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
    • DSP one at 5 X 3 3/4" and one at 5" X 1 1/2" 

    Next and last is an exquisite card featuring just Sahara Sand, foils and white.  Love the soothing colors here!

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-9 Save

    This pretty card was cased from Gail Ellis and shows off the textured die-cuts when done in foil. 

    Measurements:

    • White 5 1/4" X 4" and 5 1/4" X 2 3/4"
    • DSP squares 1 1/2"
    • Sahara Sand squares 1 5/8" squares & two strips for the torn edge on the shells area 
    • two gold strips 1/2" X 5 1/4"

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing the beautiful cards Bobby created to show off the Seaside Bay bundle. She sure did a fantastic job didn't she?
