Use the Double Wonder Template to make 11 quick cards! Join me Thursday night!


Do you ever planned a stamping session focusing on just a few products? It's easy to get overwhelmed with everything you own.  Using this method is actually quite liberating and fuels the creative process.  I've started doing that more and more often especially when planning my card kits to go.  I pick Stampin' Up! products from the same suite and choose some sketches or layouts for card ideas.  the process is so enjoyable this way!  

Lately I've been seeing groups of cards using the Double Wonder template and had to try it.  It was originally designed by Shannon West from Stampin' Up!  It's so clever!! You start out with 2 pieces of 6" X 12" designer paper and using the pieces you can quickly have 11 finished cards!

Look at these! I'll be making these cards Live tomorrow night at 7 pm CT. Join me either here on FB or on Zoom.  

Here are the steps: 

  1. Pick out 2 different sheets of 6 X 12" designer paper and 11 card bases.  Make sure you have some ribbons or embellishments to match.  
  2. Use the template below to cut your designer paper; cutting both at once. 
  3. Grab some scraps of White and coordinating colors for punches/greetings. 
  4. Cut 4 pieces of layering card stock at 3 1/4" X 5" and one 3 3/4" square for the bonus card. (I used White)
  5. Choose a stamp set & ink to coordinate. 
  6. Or use the new Share Sunshine Covid-19 digital download like I did for my greetings. No stamping needed!  You can purchase that here. https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca Price: $12.00 USD
  7. Come back here tomorrow night so we can stamp together.
  8. Or use this link to join via Zoom. *see tips on zoom meetings below  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88215870191

I chose to use the new Ornate Garden designer paper for my cards.  Anything goes but a non directional design is best; try not to choose a paper that needs to be north and south.

  • Share a Milkshake card with video & free projects sheet!


    The Share a Milkshake bundle is SWEET and super fun to create with.  We made this fun card at my March card clubs: 

    You can see the Share a Milkshake bundle here; it's filled with cute 2-step images, quirky font greetings and fabulous dies.  See that straw in the ice cream?  It fits into a 'slit' in the die-cut ice cream piece. 

    *This bundle is carrying over into the new Annual catalog but it will not be a bundle at 10% off any longer; the stamp set & dies will be sold separately. 

     

    That bottom large die above folds into a textured sugar cone; you can then insert your 'scoops' of ice cream in it like the project below shared by Stampin' Up! 

    Here's what we stamped inside our card.  The 2-step bowl of ice cream with a die-cut silver spoon is extra special.

    My colors include Coastal Cabana, Sweet Sorbet and Polished Pink with a bit of Early Espresso for the chocolate topping die-cuts. the striped DSP on the bottom is from the Country Floral Lane DSP in the Spring catalog.   

    Here's the free project sheet for this project; it includes measurements, directions and supplies. Download March 23 Share a Milkshake

  • The Last Chance Sale starts Tuesday!! The Stamparatus is already low inventory!


    Tuesday starts our big Last Chance sale on both the Annual and Spring (January-April) catalogs.  However things are already selling out!  I wanted to give you a heads up on my favorite tool.  

    One of the biggest shocker on the retired lists is our Stamparatus seen here. It's already in low inventory! 

    I am SO SAD that it is retiring.  You may wonder why because it's an amazing stamping positioning tool.  There are some copyright & legal issues happening that is forcing Stampin' Up! to take it out of their product offerings. 


    This means the magnets, grid paper are leaving as well.  So if you don't have a Stamparatus yet; get one today!  And if you do, I suggest getting a set of magnets here while you can. They're half off starting Tuesday, April 4th.

    Here's a video showing you the benefits of a Stamparatus. 

    And here's another one below on hinge step stamping.

  • Easter Bunny Floating Panel card with a free project sheet & video tutorial!


    We made this sweet card at my March Card Clubs – it features the Easter Bunny bundle.  This bundle is currently unavailable.  you can get the Easter Bunny stamp set now but the Bunny punch is returning in May. 

    It's a Floating Panel fun fold card; one of my current favorite folds lately.  It's both fun to make and easy to create too!  

    My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Daffodil Delight.   Below you'll see the baby version. I gave my gals the choice of Easter or baby.  

    The greetings for the baby card are from Charming Sentiments. Click here for the PDF project sheet for measurements & products used. 

    I used a variety of products on this card: 

    • Stamps – Easter Bunny, Charming Sentiments
    • Ink – Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss
    • Paper – Fresh Freesia, Daffodil, Blackberry Bliss, Basic White, Tea Boutique, Butterfly Kisses, Flowers & More host
    • Other – Basic Borders dies, Cane Weave 3D folder, Dimensionals, Brass Butterflies 

    Do you see his little cottontail? I tore off a piece from a cotton ball and rolled it into a ball. It's adhered with out Multipurpose liquid glue.   

    Here are the measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2". Scraps for bunny & circle punch. Two strips 1/2" X 1 1/2" for the floating panel hinges
      • DSP pieces four pieces at 1 1/4" X 4"
      • White front square 2 3/4", inside 5 1/4" X 4"
      • Blackberry Bliss square 2 7/8"
      • Greeting strips 3/4" X 3 1/2"

    Here's a tip on the Floating panel:  You need just two pieces of card stock about 1/2" X 2 1/2". Fold them in half and adhere to the center fold; one on each side.  Your front panel is adhered to this. 

    *Watch the video below (or click here) where I share the tips on creating this card; it's the second project of 4!
