Stampin’ Up! Floating Panel Fun Fold

Posted on March 28, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello again…I have two floating panel fun fold cards for you today… I couldn’t stop! One is made with the super cute At the Pond stamp set + Flowers & More HOST DSP paper pack. The other is made with Enjoy the Adventures Memories & More card pack, Flowers & More HOST DSP paper pack and Stylish Shapes Dies.

Stampin' Up! Enjoy the Adventure Floating Panel Fun Fold

Stampin' Up! Enjoy the Adventures Floating Panel Fun Fold card & envelope

This is the Enjoy the Adventures Floating Panel fun fold. The Mango Melody circle was die cut from one of the small cards in the memories & more card pack with the Stylish Shapes Dies and the black center is a sticker from the pack! The two were adhered together then added to the card panel with dimensionals. The other two stickers on the card front are the multi-colored arrow and the blue & black banner (I added a dab of glue to make sure they stayed in place.). The embellishments for the card front are Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Balmy Blue.

The inside of the card uses more stickers from the Enjoy the Adventure Memories & More card pack. The flower was added with dimensionals to help the card remain open.😁 The embellishment on the flower is a Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearl.

Stampin' Up! At the Pond Floating Panel Fun Fold

Stampin' Up! At the Pond Floating Panel card inside

This frog – and the others in the stamp set are just so sassy! They are a 2-step stamp for the frog & the log. I stamped the outline first, then the filler stamp in each case. The bugs on the card front were stamped in Memento ink and I filled the wings with color using a Light Balmy Blue Blends, then Wink of Stella. The sentiment is from Charming Sentiments & die cut with its coordinating dies.
For the inside of the card, I stamped the larger bug three times . Again a 2-step stamp, and the filler for the wings was Parakeet Party ink and Tahitian Tide ink. I added a single Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequin in Balmy Blue to each bug – and that sequin held the card open!

Instructions for these two cards may be found on a previous blog here, just change up the DSP and the floating front panel to suit your stamp set. 🥴😁 Isn’t it fun to see a variety of cards using the same layout – just changing stamps/ dies/ DSP, like that. They look so totally different.

Stampin’ Up! Playing in the Rain Fun Fold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on March 23, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello everyone! It’s that time of week… for the blog hop!

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday hop.3/23

Spring is in the air… daffodils are up as are Star Flower, crocus, Narcissus. Hellebores are really showing off (that’s a Lenten Rose if you didn’t know). And temps are rising, sort of… lots of wind – you know March! And here’s my card, a fun fold. It’s an off-set gatefold is what it is. And I really like the offset business.

This card begins with Balmy Blue card stock, scored on both ends, just not evenly 😀 Next I added Mango Melody adhered to each panel, then Rain or Shine DSP on top of that.

Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain, inside

Moving to the inside of the card, I adhered Rain or Shine DSP to each end panel. I then added Mango Melody to the center panel, I then took a piece of Basic White and stamped the sweet flowers at the bottom using the Playing in the Rain stamp set & Memento ink. I colored the flowers with Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green Blends, I stamped the raindrops, again from Playing in the Rain, in Balmy Blue ink. The sentiment also comes from Playing in the Rain and is stamped in Balmy Blue ink. This panel was adhered in the center panel and the inside was complete.

Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain fun fold with belly band

To make the belly band I cut a strip of Mango Melody in 1 x 91/4, wrapped it around the card loosely and adhered the ends together in the front. I removed the strip & burnished the folds of the band. I die cut a circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies and another piece of the Rain or Shine DSP. I die cut a slightly smaller circle in Basic White for strength and adhered it to the back of the circle. This was adhered with glue to the belly band, covering the glued ends. I die cut directly from the Rain or Shine DSP, this sweet fox with the umbrella and adhered it with dimensionals to the circle.

Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain fun fold card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the Rain or Shine DSP for the flap; stamped flowers ( Memento ink) and rain drops (Balmy Blue ink) from Playing in the Rain stamp set ~ and the card & envelope were done! Such a cute card!!!

Stampin’ Up! Naturally Gilded and Blending Brushes

Posted on March 21, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Tuesday morning. I’m using a new Designer Series Paper called Naturally Gilded Specialty Paper that can be found in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. It’s wonderful for using Blending Brushes. It comes with copper, silver & gold designs and is beautiful. I chose today to use Blending Brushes to add color to the copper tone.

Stampin' Up! Naturally Gilded Specialty DSP

I began at the top of the paper blending in Daffodil Delight ink with the Blending Brush. Using the same brush, I then added Mango Melody ink. With a new brush I added Balmy Blue. I have my brushes using color tones for the similar colors and this works well for me. I adhered this to a panel of Copper Foil and set both aside to decide what to do next. This looks like a wildflower garden to me so I pulled out my Dragonfly Punch and it’s coordinating Dragonfly Garden stamp set. There are two dragonflies in this stamp set: one has a more solid, filled in body and the other is the one I chose to use. Using VersaMark ink, I stamped this on a scrap of Basic White, then Copper embossing powder to sprinkle over it, then heat set with the heat tool. I again pulled out my Blending Brushes, Daffodil Delight ink and Balmy Blue, but also brought out Pacific Point for a more vibrant butterfly. I added Daffodil Delight to the center portion of the dragonfly, then Balmy Blue on the outer wings and finally Pacific Point. The Pacific Point really brought the dragonfly to life as it is vibrant. Here’s what it looked like prior to using the punch.

Stampin' Up! Copper dragonfly with embossing powder & blending brushes

You can also notice how mixing the blue with the yellow creates some green on the dragonfly – and that’s ok! I did two of these, punched them with the Dragonfly Punch, then adhered them with mini dimensionals down the center. For the long tail, I trimmed a edge of a dimensional and attached it. I punched a tiny dragonfly from the copper foil. I used a sentiment from the stamp set to create the banner… VersaMark ink + copper embossing powder + heat tool. I punched this with my Double Oval Punch. I played around for a background color for both the card and the sentiment – and came up with Daffodil Delight for both. Yep, brought out the Double Oval Punch for the back of the oval. I attached the tiny copper foil dragonfly with a dab of liquid glue to the sentiment banner, then added dimensionals and placed it on the card front. I added the dragonflies. I had a length of Baker’s Twine on my desk in White, so pullled out my Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends and colored it, folded it in half to make a double bow and attached it with a dab of glue, also to the banner. I added several dimensionals to the back of this slimline panel of Naturally Gilded Paper & Copper foil and added it to a Daffodil Delight card base.

Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden for the inside

For the card’s inside, I stamped this array of wildflowers and hovering dragonflies using Memento ink and stamps from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set. I haven’t used this set in a bit and I love it. But then, we just had winter so it seemed inappropriate. Now that it’s officially Spring – bring it on! OK, getting carried away… these were stamped on a Basic White panel then adhered to the inside of the card.

For the envelope, I used this same field flower stamp to stamp the left front but forgot to take a photo. There are slimline envelopes in the catalog and I used a white one :O) Card cuts will be listed at the end of this post.

Stampin’ Up! DSP Fun Fold

Posted on March 17, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Friday morning… oh wait, that needs to be read with a bit of Irish brogue… good Fridee mornin’ 😀 Happy St. Patty’s day 👍. I have three fun cards for you today – pretty much made the same, just with different Designer Series Papers. The first is the Hello, Irresistible DSP from the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES and the Irresistible Bloom Bundle.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Bundle, inside

Hello, Irresistible DSP, Fine Shimmer Paper in gold, Soft Sea Foam and Flirty Flamingo for the card back… + the Irresistible Blooms Bundle for the Flowers and leaves. You can see in the photo showing the inside of the card how the DSP shows off. Loose Frosted Dots were added for glam.

Stampin' Up! Happy Forest Friends inside

Happy Forest Friends DSP is the show-off on this card. Additions to make it: Smoky Slate & Fine Shimmer Paper thin strips, Happier than Happy Bundle (butterfly & sentiment) and a bit of Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack in Crumb Cake. So Saffron card stock was used for card back.

Stampin' Up! Happy Forest Friends DSP without wrap

Stampin' Up! Happy Forest Friends DSP, no wrap, inside

Here again, the show-off is the Happy Forest Friends DSP, but without folding it back on itself.. & it shows off the back of the DSP when opening the card. So Saffron for the card back & Soft Suede for the sentiment banner + the Essential Tag Punch. Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels were added to the tag. These are such fun cards to have on hand to add sentiments to when needed. And here’s how to do cards 1 & 2.

Cut DSP 5 1/2 x 6, score on long side (with scene right side up) @ 1/2 on left and 4 1/2 on right end. Burnish. TIP: this creates a card front 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and is best with any DSP that has a ‘scene’.
Add card back (4 3/16 x 5 1/2) to 1/2 end of DSP. Best way to do this is to add adhesive to the 1/2″ end of DSP (inside) & slip card back in the fold and close the card front.
Add the two 1/2″ strips to inside of the right end of the DSP
Add adhesive to back of strips & back of DSP on right end and fold to front on burnish. This shows the back side of the DSP which coordinates so well with the card front. When opening the card, the ‘back’ of the DSP adds a great pattern for the inside of the card.
Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 added to card for writing. A 1/2″ strip of the DSP was added to further show the DSP

Card 3 was even simpler, with the entire card front showing the DSP without it folding back on itself. I still used the same DSP size 5 1/2 x 6 and scored @ 1 1/4, making certain when scoring the ‘scene’ is right side up 😀And the card back was So Saffron 4 3/16 x 5 1/2.

Here are the three cards with envelopes – great variety with same basic template. Love how the ‘scene’ of the DSP is the primary focus – at least in the last two cards. This does show you how to give variety to a basic layout. To see another card with this same layout, please look here.

Stampin’ Up! Rhino Ready & Radiating Stitched Dies for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on March 16, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome, welcome… to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a fun sketch challenge today to get our creative juices flowing. It will be fun to see what the others on the team share.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Rhino Ready & Radiating Stitched Dies

Here’s my card. These Ready Rhinos bundle are just too cute ~ I just HAD to make another card with them. And this is my first play with the Radiating Stitched Dies and I’m really liking them too. Both of these are part of the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES found on the online store. You may find that link here. But let’s get back to the card… The card base is Mossy Meadow cut as an A2 tent fold. The largest of the Radiating Stitched Dies was used to die cut Happy Forest Friends DSP and was adhered to the card base with Stampin’ Seal. The next to largest of the Radiating Stitched Dies was used to die cut the Sahara Sand layer and that was added to the card front with dimensionals. The rhino was stamped in Memento ink on a Basic White scrap, then colored with Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. Be sure to leave a little white areas for depth :O) The rhino was die cut with the Rhino Ready Dies. To die cut the leaves, I looked for a green DSP that had some variation to it and found it in the Hues of Happiness DSP pack – so… die cut 4 palm leaves, two small & two larger using the Rhino Ready Dies. I also stamped the sentiment in Memento ink on another Basic White scrap (sentiment is from Rhino Ready stamp set) and die cut that with a banner die from the Gingko Branch Dies.

I put dimensionals on the ends of the sentiment banner & Stampin’ Seal in between and placed it on the card. I added the rhino with dimensionals only on his right side, then slipped the palm leaves under the rhino, adding with liquid glue. My final touch for the card front was placing the three Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls for a bit of glam.

Stampin' Up! Rhino Ready & Radiating Stitched Dies, inside

I have to say, I really like the inside of this card. Maybe it’s the texture per the Radiating Stitched Dies. Here’s what I did… I used the largest of the Radiating Stitched Dies to die cut a panel of Old Olive card stock, then die cut with the next smaller Radiating Stitched Die a panel of Basic White. I adhered the remaining palm leaf die cut earlier from the Rhino Ready Dies, with liquid glue. I then stamped the birthday sentiment using the Rhino Ready stamp with Memento ink. Both the Old Olive panel and the Basic White piece were adhered with Stampin’ Seal and the card was complete.

Stampin' Up! Rhino Ready and Radiating Stitched Dies card & envelope

For the envelope I simply added a panel of the Happy Forest Friends DSP to the flap and called it enough. Love the Rhino Ready Bundle and the Radiating Stitched Dies – both from the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. All other items to make this card are in a catalog. Everything is listed below when you are ready to purchase.

Stampin’ Up! True Beauty Bundle for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Posted on March 14, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Oh goodness… daffodils are in bloom, crocus & star flower too, & jonquils – it’s begging, the transition to S-P-R-I-N-G! And the theme for today is Spring Celebration! Does that seem appropriate or what! So glad you joined us to see what we have created for you.

My card uses the Awash in Beauty DSP as its focus & I have used True Beauty stamp set and it’s coordinating Organic Beauty Dies to enhance the project. Let’s take a peek.

Stampin' Up! True Beauty Bundle for Spring Celebration hop.3/14/23

Designer Series Paper most often has two sides, one is highly decorated, the other side is more subtle. I’m calling this the DSP Wrap-Around. It may be called something else by other folks, but this is what I’m calling it. 😀 Let me tell you why by explaining how to create this card for yourself.

Begin with a piece of Awash in Beauty DSP cut 5 1/2 x 6 and score on the long side at 1/2″ and 4 3/4. The long side is the direction of the ‘landscape’ of the DSP. Burnish the score lines, folding the 1/2″ back and the 4 3/4 score forward. With this Awash in Beauty DSP, the forward section is the part that shows the pink & white check. The next step is to find two coordinating 1/2 x 5 1/2 strips that bring out the colors of the DSP. Here I chose Granny Apple Green and Polished Pink. These strips were adhered to the wrap around of the DSP on the right, then the DSP was adhered to itself on this same side to make it flat. This created a coordinating fabulous edging! Next, I took a piece of Blushing Bride card stock cut just shy of 4 1/4 in width and a full 5 1/2 in length, and adhered it to the 1/2″ end of the Awash in Beauty DSP to create a full card. More decoration was needed, so I die cut a Basic White and a Balmy Blue ‘spray’. I used a Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink to create some detail of the ‘spray’ and a depth on the Balmy Blue die cut. Next I used a Dark Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends to add some ‘depth’ to the flowers. I adhered the two ‘sprays’ together, creating a shadow effect with the white. I added this to the card front with dimensionals, tied a bow with Metallic Woven Ribbon in Sweet Sorbet and added it to the spray with a rolled up glue dot. The last step for the front was to do the banner: stamped with the True Beauty stamp set and Polished Pink ink on a Basic White strip; die cut with a die from Sending Dies for the sentiment banner. This was adhered with dimensionals and the card front was complete.

For the inside… I stamped the flower from True Beauty stamp set in Polished Pink ink, to coordinate with the DSP card front! It looks simple – and great! I used a dab of Merry Merlot on my finger to add color to the flower center (you could use a sponge dauber but my finger was very handy!)

I stamped the same flower from True Beauty stamp set on the envelope front and called the envelope done. I like the simplicity!!! And I love this flower!

Stampin’ Up! Showing off Embossing Folder Card

Posted on March 13, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Monday morning! Have your recuperated yet from the time change? I’m so wishing it would come to an end… just sayin’. My card today is to show off three embossing folders that are part of the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES Stampin’ Up! has in their online store. This is a new program – the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES and new products will be shared March, July & November. They are products that will never be shown in a catalog and may or may not be replenished. Confusing? Well somewhat. But the thing is – if you like it, get it right away so you have it to use and you won’t regret if it sells out and doesn’t return.

Stampin'n Up! Embossing Folders from ONLINE EXCLUSIVES

What I like about this card is the simplicity of the layout, the bright colors and the showing off of the embossing folders, texture. I also like the oval ‘cuz it balances out the other shapes shown in the DSP and the embossing folders. About the embossing folders: flowers, thumbnail glass dots & cross hatch – these are the designs they create.

This IS a colorful card! The background is a layer of the Brights 6×6 DSP in Granny Apple Green. Love the plaid!!! And it’s adhered to a Granny Apple
Green card base. The embossing folders come as a set of three (3) from the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES as I mentioned before. And I wanted to really showcase these folders – they have fun shapes and create lots of opportunity for use. These were run through the Cut & Emboss machine with 4 x 5 1/4 card stock, then cut down for use on this card. These were adhered to a Tahitian Tide panel and that was added to the card front with dimensionals. The ribbon is a two-in-one… I created this by putting a strip of tear & tape on the burlap ribbon (from Real Red & Burlap Ribbon Combo pack) and adding two lengths of Metallic Woven Ribbon in Parakeet Party on the tear & tape. The oval is a die cut from Fabulous Frames Dies, stamped in Tahitian Tide ink using the Sentimental Park stamp set. The cross-hatch also comes from that stamp set & uses Granny Apple Green ink. The embellishments are the 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots in Tahitian Tide.

The inside of the card is a simple cross hatch from the Sentimental Park stamp set, stamped in Granny Apple Green on a Basic White panel. I need room for my special thanks to this person!

Stampin' Up! EMBOSSING FOLDER show off card & envelope

The envelope has more cross hatching in Granny Apple Green ink from Sentimental Park stamp set, and the flap has a panel of Brights 6×6 DSP in Granny Apple Green. Talk about a cheerful card! This could easily be a birthday card… just change the sentiment banner 😀

Stampin’ Up! Sentimental Park Gatefold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on March 9, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

.Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! You may come from the creative Tara or simply hopped in here. However you arrived, we’re glad you came. We have a color challenge today and when I saw the challenge I immediately went to my DSP stash to see what ‘fit the bill’. I hope you like the card.

Stampin' Up! Sentimental Park Gatefold. hop 3/9

The only color missing in this Designer Series Paper is Coastal Cabana ~ and the paper is called Regency Park 6×6 DSP. I’ve used Petal Pink as my card base with Night of Navy on each of the side panels under the Designer Series Paper. The focal point is the decoration on the belly band. I first die cut the larger piece in Night of Navy, then die cut several flowers: Night of Navy, Basic White and a single Petal Pink. Once I adhered the small flowers to the Night of Navy , I die cut a Basic White piece to add the sentiment. The sentiment comes from Sentimental Park stamp set and is stamped in Night of Navy ink. I adhered this piece to the Night of Navy decorated piece with Stampin’ Seal, slipping it under the flowers. It worked perfectly. I then added a bow with the Bordered Ribbon, which is Night of Navy. After making the bow I trimmed down the center of the ribbon so that it looked softer. I adhered this to the sentiment panel with a glue dot.

Back to the card base… cut at 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, I score on the long side at 2 1/8, then fold the opposite side over to meet it. Sometimes when I score each long side at 2 1/8, there is a gap, and I didn’t want that. Night of Navy panels were added to each small panel, then a piece of the Regency Park was adhered over that. Because the belly band is the show piece on this card, I completed that by wrapping a 1 x 9 1/2 strip of Night of Navy around the card, overlapping in front and securing the ends together with Stampin’ Seal. I added the decorated sentiment banner to the front (right on the 1″ strip) with Stampin’ Seal. I removed the completed belly band to finish the inside of the card.

For the inside, I added more pieces of the Regency Park DSP showing off a Balmy Blue design.on each panel. For the center panel I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink – still from the Sentimental Park stamp set. Then I stamped the flower ‘bouquet’ in Petal Pink ink in two places, surrounding the sentiment. The ‘bouquet’ is also park of the Sentimental Park stamp set. I adhered the Basic White panel to the center of the inside and the card was done.

For the envelope… more of the same design of Regency Park 6×6 DSP as on the card front for the flap, trimmed tom fit. Across the front I adhered a strip of the Regency Park 6×6 DSP pattern in Balmy Blue to coordinate perfectly with the card.

I love how this turned out – the contrasts in color compliment each other nicely and show off the banner too.

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Sympathy

Posted on March 6, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello Monday! This is the beginning o a new week… do you have special plans? So far, mine is the routine stuff and right now, that works for me. Today’s card uses the Irresistible Blooms Bundle from the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES because I haven’t shared it yet 😀 and I need to send it. It’s super soft in color cuz’ the pain of loss in this instance is really hard.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Sympathy.1

I used Shimmery White card stock for my base and added a strip of the Hello, Irresistible 6×6 DSP, a little less than 1 1/2 in width . I next die cut the ‘overlay’ from another piece of Shimmery card stock using the Irresistible Blooms Dies and adhered with dabs of glue. If I had been thinking… just sayin’… I would have used an adhesive sheet under the Shimmery Paper to do the delicate die cut – it would have gone on so easily! Next I die cut the double leaf and the rose from two different sheets of the Hello, Irresistible 6×6 DSP and the delicate white leaves were die cut from regular Basic White. The large rose was added with dimensionals and the leaves slipped under with dabs of liquid glue, layering as shown. I stamped the sentiment from Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Petal Pink ink. I added three Loose Frosted Dots in yellow and the front was done.

Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Sympathy.inside

For the inside, I stamped the smaller rose image in Petal Pink ink, then added the ‘blotches’, also in Petal Pink ink. Both come from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set. I adhered a 5/8″ strip of the same Hello, Irresistible 6×6 DSP to the left side. Finally, I stamped the sentiment in Petal Pink ink using the Inspired Thoughts stamp set.

The envelope is very similar to the inside of the card: small rose stamped in Petal Pink ink followed by adding blotches in same ink – both from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set. A piece of the Hello, Irresistible 6×6 DSP was adhered to the flap & trimmed to fit.

Here are the products listed in today’s card.
