Yesterday was my weekly Facebook Live where I shared 3 projects featuring the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June mini catalog. This cute stamp set is NOT coming back in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  See it here. 

I added all of the upcoming new In Colors to this card!

The clouds are heat embossed on the Balmy Blue CS using White embossing powder.  The clouds are an outline stamp but I wanted to fill them in to look 'white'.  So I used my Chalk Marker to color them in and love the effect!  I am so sad to report that this neat Chalk Marker was on the retiring list and is already sold out.  You could use White craft ink or White chalk pastels and color it in too. 

The kite is stamped on White CS using Black Memento ink and colored in with the NEW In Color Blends markers. I fussy cut it and added to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I stamped the sun image on a scrap of Daffodil Delight CS using Daffodil Delight ink and fussy cut it.  There is not a punch or dies to coordinate with this stamp set, but I didn't mind fussy cutting the kites or sun.  Easy to do!

Here's a link to the video.  Or click on the photo below to watch how to make this card and two more using the Kite Delight stamp set!

• Curtain fun fold card with video & free project sheet

  January 27, 2025

  ---

  I shared this neat curtain fold card on a video last week.  If you missed it click here to see it.  Or slide down a bit.  

  Save

  I chose a few new products from the Spring catalog including the wonderful With You in Mind stamp set & Timeless Plaid designer series paper.  The colors include Lost Lagoon with Pebbled Path & White.  

  If you haven't made a curtain fold yet they're quite easy if you get the scoring correct.  I got these measurements from my friend Susie Wood.  It's a 6" X 3" piece of DSP scored at 2 3/4", 3 1/4", 4 1/4" & 4 3/4". I then made a mark on the far right down 1" and cut off the bottom right corner from the first score-line on the bottom to the upper right. 

  Save

  I made a few of these and decided to try stamping the Lost Lagoon layer instead of texturing it with the Plaid 3D embossing folder (right card).  Which do you prefer? 

  Save

  The greetings are stamped on a die-cut from the Greetings of the Season dies seen here.  It's a good time to order those large items like dies because you can earn free products during Sale-a-Bration.

  Save

  
  

  I created a free project sheet for this card.  I recommend saving my project sheets in a folder or binder for easy card layout ideas.  *Click on the following link to download or print it.  Download With you in Mind Curtain fold

  The inside greeting is from the Mixed Labels stamp set. 

  Below is the video for this card and another double diagonal fold.  I hope you watch it to see the tips on assembly.  And subscribe to my YouTube Channel too!
