Stampin' Up! Diagonal Split Fun Fold w/ Daisies

Isn’t this pretty? I’m heading to a convention on Thursday and the ‘logo’ is daisies – so what better use of this Delightfully Eclectic DSP and Scalloped Contour Dies? and this fun fold is so quick & easy.

  • Directions
    • * Cut card base – here it is Thick Basic White – 4 1/4 x 10 1/4, score at 5 1/2
    • * Cut Designer Series Paper – Delightfully Eclectic DSP – 4 1/4 x 4 34 and adhere to card front
    • * While this is drying, cut additional pieces of DSP 2 5/8 x 3 15/16 + 2 1/4 x 6 (envelope flap)
    • * Place card front in Paper Trimmer and cut on the diagonal. For my measurements I used 1 1/4 on left upper corner and about 1 1/2 on right lower corner.
    • * Using Basic White card stock and the 2nd largest of the Scalloped Contour Dies, create the scalloped piece. Adhere the small panel(2 5/8 x 3 15/16) of DSP to it’s center. Add dimensionals to the back of this panel, both top & bottom.
    • * Add this panel to the closed card front – top portion only! Remember the cut diagonal removed the bottom :O) It will be about 1/2″ from top of fold and about 5/8″ from each side.
    • * With the card closed, slip the bottom diagonal piece under the scalloped die cut, making it even with the inside of the card bottom & sides. Remove backing on remaining dimensionals and close card.
    • * Using the Sweetly scripted stamp set, Tuxedo Black Memento ink and a 4 1/4 x 1″ strip of Basic White, stamp the preferred sentiment. Add dimensionals to each end and adhere over the die cut panel

Stampin' Up! Diagonal Split card inside

On the inside of the card… on a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel and using the daisy outline stamp from Color & Contour stamp set, stamp in Petal Pink both in the upper right corner and lower left. Now stamp the ‘fill’ image of the flower in stamped off Petal Pink – this is called second generation stamping. Add the panel to the inside of the card – and done! I created at least 3 of these, just like this, then did two others using the Subtles 6×6 DSP in Petal Pink to cover the card front, yet continued with the Delightfully Eclectic Daisy DSP on the Scalloped Contour Die.

Stampin' Up! Diagonal Split Front Fold w/ Scalloped Contour Dies

For the envelope, I used another piece of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP to cover the envelope flap and trimmed it to fit. On the envelope front, I did the same daisy stamp from Color & Contour stamp set with Petal Pink ink. I did the same for all five cards.

Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Gatefold Card

Posted on by
4

Good morning.! I’ve been on a ‘kick’ lately about using more of my retiring Designer Series Paper – and I’m happy to say I’m making progress. Of course, in doing that I haven’t been showcasing new items as much as perhaps I should. Having said that, know you can use current DSP & die cuts to your hearts delight -:O)

Stampin' Up! DSP Gatefold Card

This card uses Masterfully Made DSP, which is very colorful and abstract -gives the idea of torn edges. This particular paper has Berry Burst, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry – at least on this card. Here are the deets…

The card base is 4 x 5 1/2 and I used Berry Burst as there is so much of this wonderful color in this particular portion of the DSP. I cut the Designer Series Paper 5 1/4 x 12 and scored it @ 2, 4, 8 & 10. On each short end mark the center (2 5/8) and trim from the score line to the mark, saving that piece to adhere to the front. Fold along score lines mountain, valley, valley, mountain. Adhere this to the card base.

Now it’s time to decorate… I used the Stitched Shapes Dies to cut a circle from Basic White, then pulled out the Gorgeously Made stamp set (retiring April 30) and stamped images on the circle: the wording in stamped off once Crushed Curry and the lines in Pumpkin Pie, full strength.While this stamp set was on my table, I stamped the same lines image on a piece of Basic White 43 3/4 x 5 across the bottom in Pumpkin Pie ink. I die cut this stunning open leaf from Basic White using the Artistic Dies (also retiring April 30. And now, ready to put together… I closed the card with folds intact and noted where to place the circle so it would be centered on the card front. NOTE>>> when attaching with dimensionals, it’s only on the one side. Remove backing on the dimensionals and add. With the card in the closed position again, add the large leaf die cut with dabs of liquid glue along the stem and tips of leaves – just where it will attach to the circle.Add three Berry Burst dots from the Glossy Dots Assortment – carrying over to the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog! Now add the Basic White stamped panel to the inside of the card – and ready!

Stampin' Up! DSP Gatefold card, inside

Envelope.. Cut another piece of DSP 2 1/4 x 6 and adhere to the envelope flap, trim to fit. Across the front of the envelope, stamp the lines image along the bottom. With no sentiments on this card, it can be sent for just about any reason at all… to a man or a woman. Perfect for your stash! and you can add a sentiment to the inside if you need to, when the time comes.

Stampin' Up! DSP Gatefold card & envelope

A couple of things to remember: this DSP, the Gorgeously Made Bundle and the Artistic Dies are all retiring end of day April 30 – so if you want to get them, do so ASAP in the Last Chance Products.

Stampin’ Up! Flight & Airy Triple Panel Fold

Posted on by

Three more days to get this FREE Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper! With a qualifying purchase of $50 (before shipping & taxes, this designer series paper can be yours. This is such a sweet paper – let me share the card for today, which really shows off one of the designs.

Stampin' Up! Flight & Airy Triple Panel Fold

When closed the panels are directly on top of one another, and then it opens and you see this display of beauty. This is a birthday card, as you see in the middle panel, but it could be for anything, depending on what you used for sentiments. Let’s make this…

I used Thick Basic White for the card base 4 1/4 x 10. 3/4 scored at 3 1/2 & 7. I then cut the Flight & Airy DSP sequentially, so the pattern flows across each panel – 4 1/8 x 3 3/8 (cut 3). Adhere to each panel. Cut three Basic White strips 5/8 x 3 3/8 and three more coordinating DSP strips 1/2 x 3 3/8 and adhere those about 1/2″ up from bottom. Now die cut three panels for stamping the top – I used Thoughtful Expressions Dies, stamping each one with Balmy Blue ink for the floral design. I used the Inked & Tiled stamp set for the sentiments and they are stamped in Memento Black ink. The first sentiment piece was adhered, then the last panel sentiment, by closing the card so when closed they are in the same location. Lastly, I did the center sentiment panel. Then time to decorate & embellish :O)

  • * For the first panel this sweet die cut flower from Petal Pink card stock using the Thoughtful Expressions Dies. I embellished the center of it with a Blooming Pearl in Petal Pink
  • * The center panel is a bit more elaborate – this beautiful floral spray was stamped in Memento Black ink using another stamp in Thoughtful Expressions stamp set, then colored with Stampin’ Blends: Petal Pink & Flirty Flamingo for the petals, Lemon Lolly for the center of the flower, Shaded Spruce for the leaves. I die cut this with the coordinating Thoughtful Expressions Dies and adhered it in place.
  • * The last panel is a simple die cut leaf in Garden Green using a die from the Thoughtful Expressions Dies.
  • * Finally, I added a Garden Green bow adhering it in place with a glue dot and three more Blooming Pearls, this time in Pretty Peacock

Now lets, turn the card over, as that’s where you will write your message.

Stampin' Up! Flight & Airy Triple Panel card back

Again I cut strips of Flight & Airy DSP to decorate the back – a Balmy Blue pattern 5/8 x 3 3/8 (cut 3) and the floral pattern as used on the card front, 1/2 x 3 3/8 (cut 3) – adhering them together, then to the card back about 1/2″ from bottom.

Stampin' Up! Flight & Airy Triple Panel Fold card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the same pattern Flight & Airy DSP on the flap trimmed to fit. On the envelope front, this sweet floral stamp from Thoughtful Expressions stamp set in Balmy Blue ink. Such a fun and easy card and so cheerful & sweet. I would love to see what YOU do with this fun fold.

Stampin’ Up! Inked Botanicals Side Fold

Posted on by
4

Good morning… for today’s card I’ve done something a bit different. I’ve used Inked Botanicals 6×6 DSP in coordinating patterns from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog and Heartfelt Hellos stamp set which is a FREE item during Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration with a qualifying purchase. But that’s not really the different part – let’s view the card.

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals Side Fold card - front

Isn’t this paper just oh so pretty? I love the brushed, casual look. The card base is Calypso Coral card stock 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 then 2 1/8 trimmed from the front. I reserved that piece for the light-covered panel. But I get ahead of myself. I decorated the card front with a layer on Very Vanilla 3 1/4 x 4 1/8 then with Inked Botanicals 6×6 DSP 3 1/8 x 4. I covered removed piece with Very Vanilla 2 x 4 1/8 and coordinating Inked Botanicals 6×6 DSP 1 7/8 x 4. I adhered this to the card front with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment with Lost Lagoon ink on a Very Vanilla scrap & punched it out with the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch – a perfect size. I adhered a small strip of Lost Lagoon to the punched sentiment and added the sentiment panel & strip to the card front with dimensionals. I tied a double Linen Thread bow and slipped it behind the sentiment, attaching it with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals side fold card inside

For the inside… I first added a panel of Very vanilla card stock 4 1/8 x 5 3/8. I cut a piece of Calypso Coral to be smaller than the front panel – so 3 7/8 x 1 3/8. I stamped a Very Vanilla Panel – again from the FREE Heartfelt Hellos stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink and adhered it to the Calypso Coral piece. I adhered this, centering it, to the inside of the card, then closing the card added several embellishments from the Tinsel Gems Three Pack in Lost Lagoon.

Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals Side fold card and envelope

For the envelope, more of the Inked Botanicals 6×6 DSP adhered to the flap and trimmed to fit, then a narrow strip adhered to the envelope front. Done!

In order to get your hands on a few FREE products during Sale-a-Bration, you must place a qualifying order. The Heartfelt Hellos stamp set is available with a $50 order prior to shipping & taxes.

Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Triple Box Card

Posted on by
4

Good morning! I’m still in my birthday week and folks have been so generous, both in sending cards and the giving of gifties. Of course, the best gift of all is the gift of friendship :O) Today’s card is just super cute – a triple box card. I may have done one of these in the past, but some time ago.

Stampin' Up! Translucent Florals Triple Box Card

Is this cute or what?! The Translucent Florals stamp set is a distinctive stamp set, which means it has lots of dimension in the stamp. And it prefers an ink pad that is not too inky. The flower is stamped in Fresh Freesia ink and the leaves are stamped in Parakeet Party ink – both stamps from the Translucent Florals stamp set. Each was die cut with the coordinating Translucent Florals Dies. I also used the Leaves Punch and Vellum to punch some background for the main flower. These are attached to a Basic White Hexagon Punched background, some with with Stampin’ Seal or liquid glue. The flower is on a dimensional in order to tuck the leaves and Vellum elements behind it. The double bow is made with Baker’s Twine Three Color Pack, Lemon Yellow & attached with a single glue dot to hold it in place.

The box itself is made with Berry Burst for the card base and Delightful Floral 12 x 12 DSP.

Card base: 8 1/4 x 4, scored at 2, 4, 6, & 8

Small boxes for front (2) – same color as card base: 8 1/4 x 2 scored at 2, 4, 6, 8

Mechanism to hold decorated element- same color as card base: 3 x 1/2 scored at 1/2, 1, 2, & 2 1/2

DSP (Designer Series Paper): (2) 3 3/4 x 1 3/4; (10) 1 3/4 x 1 3/4

Directions:

  1. Burnish all score lines. See photos for reference
  2. Add adhesive to smallest scored section, fold over and adhere. Do this for all three boxes.
  3. Add DSP to inside of tallest box sections. This will be the inside back of the box.
  4. Adhere one of the smaller boxes to the tall front box.
  5. Adhere the other smaller box beside it.
  6. Decorate fronts of all three boxes with the 1 3/4″ DSP – this will use six (6) pieces
  7. Adhere shorter pieces of DSP to inside of smaller boxes – this will use the last four (4) 1 3/4″ squares.

Stampin’ Up! Center Pop-Up Fun Fold for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Posted on by

It’s the second Tuesday of the month and time for a hop :O) Our theme this month is ‘birthday’ and can be interpreted however we like. I have created a fun fold – and since this is my ‘big day today’, that’s kinda fun – like making my own birthday card. hahaha

Stampin' Up! Amy's Inkin' Krew Team Blog Hop
Stampin' Up! Hot Air Balloon Center Pop-Up Fun Fold
Stampin' Up! Jungle Pals Center Pop-Up Fun Fold

I couldn’t help it, this fun fold is so fun to make I had to make another :O) The first is made with the Hot Air Balloon suite of products. The second card is made with the Jungle Pals bundle. It was a bit more time consuming due to the animals and all the coloring – but still worth it in every way. I’m going to walk you through the cutting of the card stock, then the decorating of the Hot Air Balloon Center Pop-Up card. I’ll be back later this week with directions for coloring the Jungle Pal animals.

Cutting the card base:

  1. Base is 5 1/2 x 8. On the 8″ side, score at 2″ & 6″
  2. On the 5 1/2″ side, line up on the Paper Trimmer at 1 1/4″ and cut between score lines only. Flip card and do the same at other end
  3. On the 8″ side, line up on Paper Trimmer @ 3″ & 5″, score between cut lines only
  4. On the 8″ side, line the paper @ 4″ on the Paper Trimmer, score above & below cut lines only
Stampin' Up! Center Pop-Up Fun Fold

This is what your card base should look like after cutting & scoring. Yes, this is decorated with card stock to give you a better visual of what the cutting lines and scoring lines should look like.

  • Paper card cuts
    • Designer Series Paper (DSP)
      • 2 cut at 1 7/8 x 5 3/8 (these are the long side panels)
      • 4 cut at 1 1/8 x 1 7/8 (these are the upper & lower center sections)
      • 2 1/4 x 6 for envelope flap
    • Basic White
      • 1 7/8 x 2 7/8 (for center pop-up)
      • 2 cut at 1 7/8 x 5 3/8 (for back of card – long side panels for writing your message)
      • scrap for sentiment banner
  • For the Hot Air Balloon card:
    • Card base is Balmy Blue
    • DSP is Lighter Than Air 6×6 DSP from the Jan-Feb 2024 Mini Catalog + Subtles 6×6 DSP in Balmy Blue from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog
    • Additional card stock: Bubble Bath, Balmy Blue and Pool Party
    • Inks used: Bubble Bath, Balmy Blue, & Pool Party
    • Embellishments: Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots

Here’s a photo of the card back & envelope. The panel on left shows die cut pieces using the Hot Air Balloon Dies. The panel on the right shows stamped images from the Hot Air Balloon stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine Gatefold card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by

Happy Thursday and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We have a color challenge today that’s extra fun – LOTS of color – and it works perfectly with the Bee Mine 12×12 DSP. I’ve also used the Bee My Valentine stamp set and coordinating Bee Builder Punch. Can you tell I like this set? I’ve used it quite a bit lately :O)

Stampin' Up! Bee My Valentine Gatefold front

Oh my goodness… I had such fun working with this Bee Mine 12 x 12 DSP. It just puts a smile on my face. The bee is too incredibly CUTE!

How to make this card… Cut the card base (Petal Pink) 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and score long side at 2 1/8; burnish. Fold opposite end of card to meet the folded in side – that is the gatefold! Easy right? Now decorate. I used Basic Black for the background of the DSP, then the DSP layers on both folded in card fronts. And notice, the gatefold is on it’s side, so landscape like after folding.In other words it’s important to realize which direction the card will open for the directional DSP!

I next created the belly band. It is 7/8 x 11 since I had to 12″ card stock (bummer!) But it worked!!! I simply gently folded the band so it met in the middle (wrapping it around the card) and lightly burnished. I cut of piece of Basic Black to cover this ‘not quite meeting together’ strip (4 1/8 x 3/4) and adhered it in place – it’s just for the front after all. I cut the Bee Mine 12x 12 DSP 5/8 x 4 and adhered it in place. To create the central design, I pulled out the More Dazzle 6×6 SDSP and with the Hexagon Punch, punched. It looks like a honeycomb cell :O). Next I punched another hexagon from basic white and trimmed it down a bit. I stamped the sentiment in Petal Pink ink using the Bee My Valentine stamp set and adhered it with liquid glue to the More Dazzle hexagon. To make certain it adhered well, I placed an acrylic block on top while I created the bee.

I stamped the bee body from Bee My Valentine stamp set with Daffodil Delight ink on a Basic White scrap, then the stripes for the bee body in Memento ink. I stamped the cute face in Memento ink as well – then punched it out with the Bee Builder Punch. I stamped the antennae in Memento ink – also from the Bee My Valentine stamp set and punched it out with another section of the Bee Builder Punch, adhered it in place. I stamped the wings in Petal Pink ink on a scrap of Petal Pink card stock and punched. I punched another set of wings from vellum and added them over top of the stamped wings, and attached both to the bee with glue dots. I adhered the bee to the hexagon and attached this to the belly band with dimensionals. I added the Hearts & Flowers embellishments in Pool Party. I added a bit of Wink of Stella as well but it doesn’t show in the photos. Cute, cute.

For the inside of the card, I took a piece of Basic White and stamped it with this whimsical ‘line’ the bee makes when it flies. Yep, from Bee My Valentine stamp set. I stamped the sweet hearts from the same stamp set in Pool Party ink, stamped off once. This was adhered in place inside the card. Done, done.

For the envelope I did the same stamping as inside the card and more Bee Mine DSP on the flap, trimmed to fit. I had such fun making this card – just kept smiling the entire time :O)

Stampin’ Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card with Most Adored SDSP, Plus Flight & Airy DSP

Posted on by
6

Hello folks – it’s midweek. We had quite a storm last night… lots and lots of heavy rain and very strong wind. We kept flashlights with us for the evening and night.

I’ve a pretty feminine card for you today using some of the FREE products from the Jan-Feb Sale-a-Bration catalog. Most Adored SDSP has gold and white on one side and color or pattern on the other side. I chose to work with this small pattern of leaves & flowers in gold.

Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card w/ Most Adored SDSP

The reason the card is called a 2, 4, 6, 8 card is because those are the score lines on a 5 1/2 x 12 card piece. Burnish those score lines and fold accordion style. With each fold, adhere the panels together so that only the gold and white side shows when completed.

Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card - scored & burnished
Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card glue step 1
Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card glue step 2
Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card glued

With panels glued in place, use a Blending Brush and color ink of choice (here I used Garden Green ink), blend color onto the Designer Series Paper. Cover a good portion of each side. Once finished with blending, buff gently with a dry cloth or paper towel to remove ink from the gold. Holding the piece closed, adhere to a card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 – Boho Blue for this card. To decorate the card I used three sizes of circles: the Deckled Circles Dies (Basic White on card front & on the sentiment panel inside + the center panel which is a smaller Deckled Circle Die), the 2 3/8 circle punch – an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE – (Boho Blue card stock on the card front), and the Stylish Shapes Dies (this was for the bird). The bird is die cut from the Flight & Airy DSP – also a FREE Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. I adhered the largest of the Basic White circles on the card front, adhering one side only. I added the length of ribbon – Grosgrain Ribbon in Pool Party as shown with Stampin’ Seal+. I adhered the two top circles together, then adhered them over the ribbon with dimensionals. I added three Blooming Pearls in Garden Green.

Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card center panel

For the center circle, I stamped the sentiment from Softly Sophisticated stamp set – another FREE item from the Sale-a-Bration catalog – in Boho Blue ink, then stamped the leaves from the same Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Garden Green ink. I used the Blending Brush and Garden Green ink to add color to the edge of the circle; adhered this in place using the front circle as my guide for placement. Here I added three Blooming Pearls, this time in gold.

Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card back panel

For the inside back panel… I stamped the sentiment from Stippled Roses stamp set – this is from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog – in Boho Blue ink. Then I overstamped with another leaf stamp from Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Garden Green ink and the flowers in Petal Pink ink – each stamped off first. Again, I added three Blooming Pearls in Garden Green. And the card was complete. Super easy and super cute.

Stampin' Up! 2, 4, 6, 8 card & envelope

For the envelope, I added more of the same Most Adored SDSP to the flap and with a Blending Brush and Garden Green ink, lightly colored it. I used Post-it notes to shield the front of the envelope so I didn’t get green ink all over it!. Again, buff the DSP with a soft cloth or paper towel. I fussy cut this sweet bird from the Flight & Airy DSP and adhered it with liquid glue for the envelope front. Love this card!!! And I must make another… :O)

Stampin’ Up! Love is in the Air for Amy’ Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Posted on by
19

Good Tuesday! Hope your day/ week is going well. We have a blog hop today as part of Amy’s Inkin’ Krew :O) The theme is LOVE – any way we want to interpret that and I’ve created a ‘missing middle’ card.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop Group
Stampin' Up! Bee Mine DSP.Missing Middle card

Isn’t this fun? In that open area I’ve stamped my sentiment – it’s where the card front ‘middle’ is missing :O)

This is so incredibly easy to make and the fun part is, the ‘missing middle’ can be larger or smaller, and the connecting section can also be different. I started with a 4 1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White and scored it at 5 1/2. I removed two sections from one end 2 x 4 1/4. Since the theme is LOVE and I really like this plaid paper of the Bee Mine DSP, that became the two focal sections and the bee with the hearts became my center focal point.

Card cuts:

  • Sweet Sorbet: 1 7/8 x 4 1/8 (cut 2); 1 3/8 x 4 1/8 – add to Thick Basic White sections appropriately
  • Bee Mine 12 x 12 DSP: 1 3/4 x 4 (cut 2- one in plaid, one w/ bee); 1 1/4 x 4 in plaid – adhere to proper sections

Directions:

  • Fold card panel on score line and line up larger plaid panel even with bottom of card
  • Put dimensionals on backside of the bee panel, both top & bottom, attach to closed card front approximately 1/2″ from left edge and equidistant top & bottom – & voila! In retrospect, it should probably have been closer to the left edge. I tried to move it over but it was adhered tightly!
  • With the Bee My Valentine stamp set, stamp the sentiment in Memento ink with the card in the closed position
  • Add embellishments – here they are the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers in Sweet Sorbet
Stampin' Up! Missing middle card view from inside
Stampin' Up! Middle Missing card sentiment panel

In the far left photo you can see how the top portion of the card looks from the inside. In the right photo is the sentiment panel. I attached another plaid piece of the Bee Mine DSP (5/8 x 4) to a Sweet Sorbet (3/4 x 4 1/8) and then to the inside of the card. This brings the color to the inside of the card and provides a ‘connecting color scheme’ to the card. Fun, fun!

Stampin' Up! Missing Middle Bee Mine DSP card

For the envelope, more of the Bee Mine DSP on the flap and a fussy cut bee peeking around the corner adhered to the front. :O) Love, love.

You can find these items on pages 8-10 as part of the Bee Mine suite of products. See below the list of today’s hop participants for more information.

Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends Part 2 for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Posted on by
18

Good Tuesday! We have an easy challenge for the hop today… “Celebrate” – and we can interpret that however we like. We have a couple of family birthdays this month so that’s what I’m using. And, while I used this same stamp set Sunday, I’m using a different animal today :O)

Stampin' Up! Amy's Inkin' Krew
Stampin' Up 4 Panel fun fold Fluffiest Friends

Look at that sweet bunny holding a cup cake – is that cute or what?! Using the Fluffiest Friends stamp set, I stamped it in Memento Black ink and colored a bit of the ears, nose and feet pads in Stampin’ Blends Dark Petal Pink. I die cut him with the coordinating Fluffiest Friends Dies. Since I had the dies out, I went ahead and die cut several leaves: in both Granny Apple Green and Parakeet Party. I used the Nested Essentials Dies to cut the banner in Basic White. I added a layer of leaves to the banner with liquid glue, then the bunny on dimensionals and a few more leaves on dimensionals. The single heart is from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers in the new Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends, bunny

This is a 4 panel fun fold card and I used Petal Pink card stock for the card base – 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 1 1/4 and 4 1/4. I added panels of DSP: Bee Mine 12 x 12 DSP, also from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog. The pieces are (2) 1 x 5 1/2 and (2) 2 3/4 x 5 1/4. The banner with the bunny was added with Stampin’ Seal to the folded back front panel.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends 4 panel fun fold

For the inside sentiment panel – Basic White piece – 2 3/4 x 5 1/4 – I pulled out another stamp set, Beautiful Balloons from the Annual Catalog. I stamped the Happy Birthday in Sweet Sorbet ink then the rounded sentiment in Petal Pink ink. The flowers at the bottom come from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set and are stamped in Memento ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends: Dark Petal Pink, Light Sweet Sorbet, Light Lemon Lolly and Light Granny Apple Green. On top of a few of the flowers I added a flower from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers. I adhered a few more of the die cut leaves in Granny Apple Green and Parakeet Party, attached the panel to the inside and the card was done.

Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends card & envelope, bunny

For the envelope, I added more of the Sweet Sorbet DSP from Bee Mine 12×12 DSP pack to the flap. I stamped the balloon in Sweet Sorbet ink using the Beautiful Balloons stamp set. I used a Basic Black Marker to add a bow and some squiggly string. I think the person receiving this card is going to love it! It’s feminine, full of color and has a super cute bunny :O)
