Stampin’ Up! Front Flap Fold with Wishes All Around Dies

Hello Tuesday! I have a bright & fun Christmas Card for you today… made with Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper, Wishes All Around dies and Christmas Classics stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Wishes All Around Dies Fun Fold

I wanted this card to look country-ish, therefore the woodgrain and the plaid Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper. While it doesn’t show much here, I did run the woodgrain DSP through the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder before adhering it. The wreath comes from Shaded Spruce card stock die cut with the a wreath from the Wishes All Around Dies. I also die cut three sprigs from Old Olive card stock with other die from this set. I attached the wreath to a Basic White circle die cut with the Deckled Circles Dies – using the 5th from smallest circle. Before adhering, I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink using the Christmas Classics stamp set. After adhering, I added Gold Holly Leaves for a bit of sparkle. I also added a Real Red Ribbon bow from the Real Red & Garden Green Combo Pack which is attached with a glue dot. I slipped in lengths of Threaded Twine as I was tying the bow :O) Also notice the red dots – those are Pearlized Enamel Dots Effects in Real Red. They take a bit to dry & harden so it might be best to wait until the card is completed to do that step :O)

Stampin' Up! Wishes All Around fun fold inside

I really like the inside of the card… I stamped the pine needles in Shaded Spruce ink; the sentiments in Real Red ink and more Shaded Spruce ink. These come from the Christmas Classics stamp set – one of my favorites. This Basic White panel was added to the inside of the card: layers of Smoky Slate card stock and Joy of Christmas DSP on the Real Red card base.

Ok – let me tell you how to make card cuts for this front flap fun fold- so easy.

  • Card base is a standard 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2.
  • Remove 2 3/4 from the top portion of the card base: reserve for the front flap
  • Layers for the top front of the card:
    • Smoky Slate 2 1/2 x 4 1/8
    • DSP 2 3/8 x 4
  • Layers for the front flap
    • Real Red, the removed portion of the card base
    • DSP 2 5/8 x 4 1/8
  • Inside
    • Smoky Slate 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
    • DSP 4 x 5 1/4
    • Basic White 3 x 4 1/4
Stampin' Up! Wishes All Around Fun Fold card & envelope

For the envelope, I added more of this stunning Joy of Christmas DSP to the flap & trimmed it to fit. I also stamped more of the pine fronds using Shaded Spruce ink and Christmas Classics stamp set. Isn’t this a friendly card? Who wouldn’t want to get this in the Christmas mail!

Stampin’ Up! Them Bones Halloween Fun Fold

Halloween is just around the corner – well, two weeks from today is the official Trick or Treating in our area. We have a grandson that ‘needs’ a card for this auspicious occasion and I’m no0t really much of a halloween fan. I love the kids and what they do for costumes, but this candy ‘need’ seems out of control to me. But… my card…

Stampin' Up! Them Bones Halloween Fun Fold

You can see, I paired this fun Them Bones DSP with Gorgeous Grape card stock. And although there is none of that color in the DSP – it works – because it’s halloween!!! I used a variety of papers for this, but focused on spooky images :O). I also used the Glossy Dots Assortment in Gorgeous Grape to add as an embellishment.

Stampin' Up! Them Bones DSP Fun Fold, inside

Here you can see the inside of the card – more of the DSP than ever! I never inked a stamp for this card – which is just a shame… but cutting down DSP did the trick and I think our grandson will love it.

Stampin' Up! Fun Fold from the top

Here’s a photo from the top – and you can see, it’s a bit of a z-fold card.

  • Card stock base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored @ 2 1/8 & 4 1/4
  • Fold card base in half, then fold front section back – to form the z
  • Decorate each panel with Them Bones Designer Series Paper
    • Cut 2 panels of DSP 2 x 5 3/8
    • Cut 1 panel of DSP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, inside piece
    • Adhere to appropriate areas as shown
  • Cut coordinating or like card stock 3 1/8 x 5
    • Cut DSP for this panel 3 x 4 7/8
    • Adhere DSP to card stock
  • Adhere this card panel to card front, centering it on the front ‘z’ so when card is closed it is centered on entire card.
  • For inside, cut the BOO! from Them Bones Designer Series Paper; attach to slightly larger White panel & attach to inside of card
  • Add embellishments – Glossy Dots Assortment

What’s fun about this design: the front panel can be just about any size – smaller or round or square or hexagon, depending on the decoration or type of card created. Use different Designer Series Paper & create a birthday or sympathy card – the dimensions/ directions remain basically the same. In other words, take the dimensions & make it your own. Would love to see what you create!

Stampin’ Up! Off-Set Gatefold with Autumn Leaves Bundle

Autumn can be such a beautiful time of year – changes colors of trees & shrubs. The main word is change… and flexibility is the key to change. Enough philosophy :O) My card is masculine in nature & one of gratitude. It uses the Autumn Leaves stamp set & coordinating dies PLUS the awesome All About Autumn DSPn – now back in stock!

Stampin' Up! Off-Set Gatefold w/ Autumn Leaves Bundle

I began with Early Espresso card stock and this All About Autumn SDSP. Our daughters are avid readers, as are their husbands, so guess I was thinking of them while making this card. Notice the narrow strip on the right side, that’s the other side of one of the designer papers in this pack, a Copper Clay color & gold- gorgeous! I’ve attached the die cut Deckled Circles to the main front of the card, but it would be so easy to attach instead to the narrow panel at right. Another option would be to have an additional layer of card stock under the DSP – I simply did not do that this time. So, change.

The front leaf was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on Very Vanilla card stock with the Autumn Leaves stamp set, then die cut with the appropriate Autumn Leaves Dies. I adhered this to the die cut circles with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from Autumn Leaves stamp set in Early Espresso ink and trimmed the edges with paper snips and added it to the leaf with a dimensional cut in half in the middle. I had a length of Copper Ribbon that I attached with a glue dot at the bottom of the leaf. The ribbon comes from the Copper & Natural Ribbon Combo Pack. As a final touch I added three Adhesive-Backed Speckled Dots in Copper Clay.

Stampin' Up! Off-Set Gatefold w/ Autumn Leaves Bundle, inside

For the inside, I had a strip of the All About Autumn SDSP that I attached with liquid glue to the Very Vanilla panel. I then stamped these gorgeous leaves in Copper Clay ink on another piece of Very Vanilla card stock. Of course they are from the Autumn Leaves stamp set. I die cut them with the proper die from the Autumn Leaves Dies. I die cut the veins from a scrap of the All About Autumn SDSP on the copper side and adhered it directly to the leaves then those to the Very Vanilla panel. The Very Vanilla panel was added to the card base.

Stampin' Up Off-Set Gatefold w/ Autumn Leaves Bundle, card & envelope

I kept the envelope very simple… more of the Copper Clay/ gold pattern from the All About Autumn SDSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. And that was it!

Stampin’ Up! Double Box Fun Fold for Class

Good morning! Sunshine today – and I mean FULL sunshine. After 5 full days of rain and haze and cloud cover, the shining sun is very welcome… Today’s card was inspired by one of my teammates, Carol Buckelew. I love this fun fold – so very easy and creates a stand up card that’s fun to show off. After I made a couple of them, we made this in my card class Thursday.

Stampin' Up! Double Box Fun Fold w/ One Horse Open Sleigh DSP

I used the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP both for this card and another and in the card class as well. I love how each has a different scene. (You’ll see each of the others in the photos below) I also incorporated the Forever Forest stamp set (used on the card back) and coordinating Forever Forest Dies (for the die cut trees on the front). The circle was made using the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Dimensions / Card Cuts

  • Card Base 1: 4 1/4 x 9 3/8 scored on the long side @ 3/8, 1 3/8, 2 7/8, 3 7/8
    • DSP for this base 1: 4 1/8 x 5 3/8; 4 1/8 x 1 3/8
  • Card Base 2: 3 1/2 x 5 1/8 scored on the long side @ 3/8 & 1 3/8
    • DSP for base 2: 3 3/8 x 3 58; 3 3/8 x 7/8
  • DSP for envelope flap: 2 1/4 x 6

Burnish score lines for Base 1; add DSP to long unscored end of base 1. Add Tear ‘n Tape to 3/8″ end fold under, then lay flat at 2 7/8 score line and adhere to make ‘box’. Adhere 1 3/8 DSP to appropriate panel – refer to photos. Add Tear ‘n Tape to 3/8″ section of base 2.

Wow – almost there! Add 3 3/8 x 3 5/8 DSP to Base 2 front, then adhere 7/8 x 3 3/8 panel to panel to right of that.

Stampin' Up! Double Box fun fold.7

Decorate front as desired. On this card I used the Forever Forest Dies to die cut two trees: one in Crumb Cake (smaller) and one in Pebbled Path. I layered them on a circle – die cut using Basic White and the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels for a bit of glam. See photo.

Stampin' Up! Double Box Fun Fold w/ One Horse Open Sleigh DSP
Stampin' Up! Double Box fun fold.8, back of card

For the back of the card I stamped a Basic White panel (4 1/8 x 5 3/8) using the trees from the Forever Forest stamp set and Mossy Meadow ink. The sentiment is from the Night Divine stamp set and stamped in Pebbled Path ink. The envelope was simple: more of the same One Horse Open Sleigh DSP for the flap & trimmed to fit. :O) :O) :O) Such a FUN CARD….

Here’s another and those made in the card class. All use the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP from the NLINE EXCLUSIVES store.

Stampin’ Up! Simple Fun Fold Note Card

It isn’t raining this morning! Wheee – maybe a bit of sunshine once we have daylight. It’s still dark here in NJ at 6 AM. This card is elegant due to the Shining Brightly DSP: deep Night of Navy & Gold are just stunning on Very Vanilla. And I’ve chosen to do this on a note card size, which when folded is 3 1/2 x 5. But it could easily be done on a standard A2 size card: just adjust the front score to maybe 1 3/4″ and change up the DSP measurements. I see another post opportunity! :O)

Stampin' Up! Simple Fun Fold Note Card

Isn’t this Shining Brightly DSP just stunning?! I’ve paired it with Something Fancy stamp set and Something Fancy Dies for the sentiment banner. And these Gold Holly Leaves and Loose Holly Gems and Sequins add a delicate and wonderful touch. I began by scoring the notecard front at 1 1/2 then folded that back on itself. I added the Sining Brightly 1 34 x 4 34 to the front left panel and another strip cut 1 14 x 4 34 to the folded back front section. Next I added another piece 1 34 x 4 34 to the inside right so that when it closes it really is noticeable.

The Very Vanilla sentiment banner was first wiped with an Embossing Buddy to remove any static, then I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink and sprinkled Gold Embossing Powder then heat set. After die cutting I added the Gold Holly Leaves and the cute red gems from Loose Holly Gems & Sequins. I added dimensionals only on the left side of banner and secured the banner in place. Nearly done!

Stampin' Up! Simple Fun Fold Note Card inside

For the inside I used the Leaf Punch and Distressed Gold SDSP to punch a leaf. I trimmed it into sections and adhered the multi-leaf section in the top left and the single leaf in the lower right. I added more red gems from the Loose Holly Gems and Sequins to pull it all together. This allows plenty of room for my message :O)

Stampin' Up! Simple Fun Fold Note Card & envelope

For the envelope – very simple… I used another panel of the Shining Brightly DSP to adhere to the flap & trimmed it to fit.

Note Cards are available in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog as are the Gold Holly Leaves; the Shining Brightly DSP and the Loose Holly Gems & Sequins are shown in the Sep-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Double Easel Card

This is how it looks from the side.

Stampin' Up! Double Easel card side view

This is a double easel card and not complicated. There ARE a lot of steps cuz there’s coloring with both Watercolor Pencils and Blending Brushes. So… let’s start with those first.

Leaves from Autumn Leaves stamp set & Autumn Leaves Dies

  • Ink the leaf from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Crushed Curry ink.
  • With that still ink on the stamp, with various Blending Brushes add dabs of Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Cobbler and Mossy Meadow. I find it best to tap the ink on lightly, especially if the color is strong.
  • Stamp on a Very Vanilla panel. Clean stamp and repeat process so there are two leaves stamped. You will note in my photo, one is much lighter than the other – that was intentional!
  • Die cut leaves using the Autumn Leaves Dies & set aside.
  • Die cut leaf veins with appropriate die from Autumn Leaves Dies using scraps from both Crushed Curry and Crumb Cake card stock.
  • Adhere to appropriate stamped & die cut leaves with dabs of liquid glue – DO NOT PUT GLUE ON THE TAIL OF THE VEIN!

Bird – Perched In A Tree stamp set with coordinating Aspen Tree Dies

  • Stamped this very fat robin in Stazon ink on a Basic White scrap. Stazon because it stamps so very clearly and does not bleed at all when colored.
  • Watercolor Pencils: Early Espresso & Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie & Real Red. I listed them this way as they will be used in pairs as listed.
    • With a flicking motion, begin adding color to the robin with Early Espresso Watercolor Pencil. This is a base layer and need not be too heavy. The reason for the flicking motion in lieu of back & forth coloring is it look more natural, more feather like. Refer to the photo for where this color should be added.
    • Add Cajun Craze Watercolor Pencil in the same way.
    • Now add more Early Espresso Watercolor Pencil until you are satisfied.
    • Switch to Pumpkin Pie and do the head & chest, flicking as you go to make it look like real feathers. Change direction of the flicking too – or… turn the robin to make the motion easier for the particular direction.
    • Add Real Red Watercolor Pencil, more on the top and under the beak, still flicking making it feather-like.
    • Add Early Espresso Watercolor Pencil to the beak and to the feet
    • Die cut with die from Aspen Tree Dies – set aside.

The base for a Double Easel Card:

  • I used Crumb Cake card stock… 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 & 2 3/4; the bottom half is also Crumb Cake card stock 4 1/4 x 4 1/4, scored at 2 & 1/4. Burnish well all score lines.
  • Adhere the 1/4 scored area to the inside of the card base that is not scored.
  • Add a Very Vanilla panel 4 1/4 x 5 3/8 to the 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 area of the card base, covering the adhered Crumb Cake front piece. This is the inside of the card and could be stamped if you so desired. I left it blank.

Now let’s decorate… :O)

  • Die cut a piece of Crumb Cake card stock cut to 4 1/4 x 5 3/8 with this wonderful open Aspen Tree Die.
  • Add this die cut piece to the front folded section of the card base. NOTE: you are adding this die with glue only on the lower half. HINT: I turned the die over and marked lightly with a pencil, the area to add glue. :O)
  • Lay die right in place over the die cut panel, place cutting plate to score line & run through, cutting that front fold section. You may have to go back & forth a bit, but only cut to the score line!
  • With a craft knife, cut pieces that should be removed per the die.
  • Stamp sentiment on a piece of Very Vanilla in Early Espresso ink. My sentiment is from the Perched In A Tree stamp set and the Very Vanilla is approximately 5/8 by 5. Adhere sentiment with dimensionals over the score line.
Stampin' Up! Perched In A Tree back side of partial die cut

This is what it looks like from the back once adhered and die cut the second time. It’s clear my Exacto knife was not quite sharp enough to make clean cuts. :O(

  • Die cut additional leaves using the Autumn Leaves Dies, Aspen
    Tree Dies
    and Distressed Gold Specialty DSP.
    • adhere the two like leaves on the sentiment banner with liquid glue.
  • FRONT section of the double easel…
  • With stamp from Perched in a Tree, stamp the splotches with on Very Vanilla panel 1 3/4 x 4 14 with stamped-off Pecan Pie ink.
  • Add panel to very front of easel section, centering top to bottom.
    • Add reserved stamped leaves colored with Blending Brushes – Autumn Leaves stamp set & Autumn Leaves Dies – with liquid glue.
    • Add Aspen Tree Die in Distressed Gold with liquid glue on one end and dimensional on leaf tip end. This adds depth.
    • Add double bow made with Simply Elegant Trim in Gold with glue dot.
  • Add robin die cut with Aspen Tree Dies with double dimensionals
  • For a final touch… add several Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to this panel and to the Aspen Tree die cut on the top section of the easel.
Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Double Easel Card & envelope

For the envelope… I added Neutral 6×6 DSP in Crumb Cake to the flap & trimmed it to fit. For the envelope front I stamped the leaf vein from Autumn Leaves stamp set in Early Espresso ink. My card was inspired by Jo Blackman and a card she made in 2022.

Stampin’ Up! Festive & Fun Pop-Out Card

Good morning, good morning! Happy Labor Day Weekend… I have this super cute card for you today, so getting right to it.

Stampin' Up! Festive & Fun Pop-Out card, front
Stampin' Up! Festive & Fun Pop-out Card, inside
Stampin' Up! Festive & Fun Pop-Out Card, fully open

This card could be good for Thanksgiving or for Christmas. Yes, it does have holly leaves as part of the embellishments and ond colored on the cake, but … remove the embellishments and add something else for embellishment, color the sweater a different color, maybe Pumpkin Pie and there ya go. Oh, and don’t stamp the badger.

I used Let’s Go Fishing Designer Series Paper in this wonderful plaid for the card front and another piece of DSP from the same pack for the pop-out portion. The card base is Pecan Pie.

  • Cut the card base 8 1/2 x 5 12 and score at 4 1/4
  • Cover the front in Designer Series Paper 4 x 5 1/4 (this is Let’s Go Fishing DSP)
  • Using a die from Stylish Shapes Dies, place it on the card front, centering left to right, and die cut.
  • Add a panel of Very Vanilla 4 x 5 1/4 to the inside of the card.
  • Cut a panel of Pecan Pie card stock 6 x 4 1/2 and cover in DSP 5 3/4 x 4 1/4. Score on the long side at 2″ & 4″. Burnish well.
  • Stamp the badger image from Festive & Fun stamp set on the second panel in Memento ink and color with Stampin’ Blends Crumb Cake. Color Lifter and Real Red for the candy cane stripes.
  • Cut a panel of Very Vanilla 4 x 1 1/2; stamp the sentiment from Festive & Fun stamp set in Real Red ink; add Real Red strips; adhere to far left panel of this three panel fold.
  • Adhere this three fold panel, centering, to the inside of the card. TIP: Before adhering it in place close card to make certain it centers with the circle opening of the card front.
  • Die cut the same size circle as the card front in Real Red card stock
  • Stamp image from Festive & Fun stamp set in Memento ink on a Very Vanilla panel and punch out with 2 3/8 circle punch. Color with Stampin’ Blends Crumb Cake, Real Red, Granny
    Apple Green, Lemon Lolly (bottom of cake) and Wink of Stella
    for the cake top. Adhere this to the Real Red Circle.
  • Close card front with the inside three-fold panel folded; adhere decorated circle to the folded panel in the circle opening.
  • Decorate card front as desired.
    • I added a bow with Linen Thread and Real Red ribbon from the Real Red and Burlap Ribbon Combo Pack
    • I also added these super cute holly leaves from the Loose Holly Gems & Sequins in the new Sep-Dec 2023 Mini catalog.

Stampin' Up! Festive & Fun Popo-Out Card & Envelope

The photo at left shows how the pop-out card looks from the top. The next photo is the card & envelope… the flap is covered in more of the Let’s Go Fishing DSP and the front is stamped with this cute bird in Memento ink from the Festive & Fun stamp set. It was colored with Real Red Stampin’ Blends.

Fun card, right? I can’t wait to see what you create with this Pop-Out idea. So many stamp sets to choose from!

Stampin’ Up! Book Fold with Countryside Inn 12 x 12 DSP

Good Wednesday morning! I’ve been a bit ‘stuck’ working with many new products from the 2023 Sep-Dec Mini Catalog that goes live September 6, and today I wanted to share a card using the Countryside Inn 12 x 12 Designer Series Papers.

Stampin' Up! Book fold w/ Countryside Inn DSP

What’s great about this fold is it can be used with a variety of Designer Series Papers, making it as masculine or feminine as your heart desires. And it’s super easy to do as well

  • Begin with a card base 4n 1/4 x 11 and score at 4 1/2 & 5 1/2 along the long side. Burnish well, then add adhesive between the two score lines, close the card, then open.
Stampin' Up! Book fold top view

The book fold look like the photo above when viewed from the top.

Now the fun part is determining the Designer Series Papers to use. And, as you see, I have two layers on my card, which you would not necessarily need to do. For this paper I felt the contrasting Basic White really set off the Countryside Inn DSP. (Dimensions will be included at the bottom of this post.)

For this particular cart, I wanted ton keep the decoration fairly simple – and chose to use the Countryside Corners Dies and the new Autumn Leaves stamp set for the appropriate sentiments. From Basic White, I used the smallest of the rectangular dies to die cut the Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment on a Boho Blue strip and stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink, then die cut it with this super tiny banner die that fit the sentiment perfectly – yes, from the Countryside Corners Dies. This Boho Blue strip was added to the Basic White die cut with dimensionals. These were added to the card front with liquid glue. As a final touch, I added three Adhesive-Backed Solid Gems in Boho Blue.

Stampin' Up! Book fold card inside

For the inside of the card, I stamped the two sentiments from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Night of Navy ink on the Basic White panel then adhered it in place.

Stampin' Up! Book fold with Countryside Inn DSP, card & envelope

For the envelope I added another panel of Countryside Inn DSP to the flap and a narrow strip at the bottom front of the envelope. Done, done.

I look forward to seeing what you do when creating this book fold card – so please share.

Card cuts:

  • Night of Navy card base 4 14 x 11` scored on long side at 4 1/2 & 5 1/2
  • Basic White layer: 7/8 x 4 1/8; 4 3/8 x 4 1/8 (2); 1 1/4 x 3 (banner)
  • Countryside Inn 12 x 12 DSP: 3/4 x 4; 4 1/4 x 4; 2 1/4 x 6 (flap), 3/16 x 6 (envelope front strip)
  • Boho Blue: 5/8 x 3 (banner strip)

One of the reasons I became a SU! demonstrator is because of the coordination of their products. When I go into one of the local craft stores, nothing coordinates – in other words, reds vary in intensity, blues are not the same navy, and the same holds true for all the other colors. So if I find a Designer Series Paper that I want to coordinate matching card stock, it doesn’t happen in the local craft store. But in Stampin’ Up!, not only do the Designer Series Papers coordinate, but so do the ribbons and embellishments. If you would like the opportunity to do what I do, join my team – get an automatic 20% off every order, enjoy the Stampin’ Up! creativity experience with other dedicated crafters and get more for your buck.

Along with new products often comes a

Stampin’ Up! Split M Fold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to another Thursday… and the amazing Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a color challenge for this hop.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop 8/24
Stampin' Up! Color Challenge 8/24
Stampin' Up! Split M-Fold w/ Masterfully Made DSP

I found the directions for this card and it seemed a clever way of making the card more flexible – and just had to give it a try. Susan Campfield was the demonstrator and had another name for it. Here’s what it looks like open.

Stampin' Up! Split m fold w/ Masterfully Made DSP

Notice how there is a gap between the front of the card and the back of the card – that’s the split. And here’s how the card looks from the top.

Stampin' Up! Split M fold w/ Masterfully Made DSP from the top

Directions to make this card are not all that complicated – and all the colors for the color challenge are in the DSP :O) I used Blueberry Bushel for the card base, Pretty Peacock for stamping one of the sentiments and Bubble Bath and Lemon Lime Twist are in the DSP – so we’re good.

  • Cut the card base back from Blueberry Bushel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • Cut the card front in two parts: Blueberry Bushel 1 3/4 x 5 12 & Masterfully Made DSP 3 x 5 1/2
    • Adhere the two front panels together so they measure 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • Cut the ‘M’ section from Blueberry Bushel 11 x 4 3/4 and score on the long side @ 2 3/4, 5 1/2, 8 1/4. Burnish as valley, mountain, valley as shown above.
    • Decorate panels as desired: Basic White layers are 2 1/2 x 4 1/2
    • Panel 1 is stamped with Pretty Peacock ink using the Charming stamp set; Radiating Stitches Dies was used to die cut the heart from Masterfully Made DSP
    • Panel 2 is a layer of Masterfully Made DSP 2 14 x 4 1/4 on the Basic White panel
    • Panel 3 is the same Masterfully Made DSP pattern as the heart, cut 1 x 4 1/4 adhered to the Basic White panel. Here I will write my message.
    • Panel 4 is this pretty stamp from Gorgeously Made stamp set, stamped with Pretty Peacock ink, stamped off once. Over that is another sentiment, this time from So Sincere stamp set (available Sep.6 in the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog) in full strength Blueberry Bushel ink on the Basic White panel.
  • On the inside of the back of the card, I used the Gorgeously Made stamp set and Blueberry Bushel ink to stamp these pretty images
  • Adhere the now decorated ‘M’ fold to the inside of the card front, keeping bottom edges even with card front; secure to back in same fashion.
  • Decorate the card front:
    • The sentiment was stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink to a Basic White scrap using the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set, then die cut with the coordinating Wonderful Thoughts Dies. This was adhered to the card front with dimensionals cut in half. Three Berry Burst embellishments were added from the Tinsel Gems 4 Pack.

I used another pattern of the Masterfully Made DSP to adhere to the envelope, trimmed to fit – 2 1/4 x 6.

Stampin' Up! M-fold w/ Masterfully Made DSP card & envelope

Fun card to make! I hope you give it a try and share your photos with me.

Now, on with the hop! See what creative folks we have on our team. you won’t want to miss a single one!

Stampin’ Up! Beary Cute Dutch Door Christmas

It’s Sunday and a glorious 60 degrees! But what that also says to me is summer is coming to an end… and I’m sad about that. Don’t get me wrong, fall is gorgeous, but there is something about the long days of summer that I really like; dawn at 5 AM and sun going down about 9:30 PM. This card is another sneaky peek at the Beary Cute stamp set and coordinating DSP. I love these bears, their faces mostly, whimsical.

Stampin' Up! Beary Cute Dutch Door

The bear was fussy cut from the Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP. I put dimensionals on him & set this aside. The next was die cutting this gorgeous die from Holographic Trio DSP using the Christmas Classics Dies. As you can see, the die has lots of detail. I did peel one of the layers off the back to make the paper a bit thinner; then sprayed it lightly on the back with water to soften it. Then I ran it through the Cut & Emboss machine. :O) I next die cut the layer on which the bear is attached – a die from the Christmas Classics Dies and from Earthen Textures DSP. I put dimensionals on this and attached it to the larger die cut, then added the bear. I cut a piece of Misty Moonlight card stock 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 and ran it through the NEW Snowflake Sky 3D embossing Folder. This will be available to customer Sep 6 in the Mini Sep-Dec 2023 Catalog. If you don’t have a Stampin’ Up catalog yet, please connect with me & I’ll get it in the mail ASAP!

Next I created the Dutch Door card base: Very Vanilla card stock cut 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2. On the short side, cut at 2 1/8 to the score line. Remove paper, rotate and cut along score line to the 2 1/8 cut, removing the top front half of the card base. (Save this for the inside of the card.) And that’s your dutch door! I ran that bottom ‘door’ through the same Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder to create more texture for the card. I added the square decorated panel with the bear, adhering it just to the ‘door’ of the card front, centering it. I added three Festive Pearls in silver.

I cut a length of the Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP 2 x 5 3/8 and adhered it to the top half of the inside card base. The removed Very Vanilla panel to make the dutch door, was cut down to 2 x 5 3/8. I stamped this cute bear in Misty Moonlight ink using the Beary Cute stamp set. I adhered this to the inside of the card and worked on the sentiment. On a scrap of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink using Beary Cute stamp set. I angled the ends, added dimensionals and attached it in the center of the card. I added three Festive Pearls in silver.

For the envelope: more of the same pattern from Beary Christmas 12×12 DSP for the flap trimmed to fit; and this adorable bear stamped across the envelope front in Misty Moonlight ink using the Beary Cute stamp set.
