Stampin’ Up! Jodi’s Off-Set Gate Fold Card

Posted on June 10, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello Saturday! I’m heading home today after being with Grands for several days. It was extra nice being with them. Yesterday’s card featured grandson Dan’s card that he made. Today’s card features Jodi’s card. :O)

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Gate fold card

Off-set gate fold simply means one folded side is larger than the other, which is kind of obvious here. It could use a belly band but it does not have one. The colors in this DSP are so vibrant and funky fun. The card base is Thick Basic White 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 1 3/4 & 6. Fold both to the front and they match nicely. Cover the two fronts in DSP so the pattern flows from one to the other. Stamp the sentiment in Memento ink on a Basic White piece using the Layering Leaves stamp set and die cut with the Nested Essentials Dies. Attach to the right side of the fold with dimensionals. Add Glossy Dots Assortment in Gorgeous Grape and Melon Mambo – Jodi’s choice!

For the inside of the card, more of the same Masterfully Made DSP on each side panel. For the middle panel, Basic White 4 x 5 3/8, the stamped sentiment is from Layering Leaves in Memento ink. The sweet flower is from Textured Floral stamp set and stamped in Daffodil Delight. Adhere panel to inside of card and done, done.

This sounds like a broken record, but this DSP is part of the special DSP sale @ 15% off select DSP packages. Read on for more info on that.

Stampin’ Up! Dan’s Fun Fold

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

Good Friday morning. I have an easy card for you today, that my grandson Dan made for his Dad for Father’s Day. Remember, I have limited supplies with me (only three stamp sets!) so no Happy Father’s Day stamp. I know… I should have planned better. Here’s his card.

I cut and scored the papers, he did everything else, including choosing the sentiments. I really like this card and know his Dad will too. Basic White Thick card stock for the card base, scored at 2 1/4 and 5 1/2. The 5 1/2 score is a valley fold and the 2 1/4 a mountain fold. it looks like this.

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Fun Fold side view

This could be an easel card, but it isn’t :O) The three card front panels are adhered together and attached to the upper panel, making certain the adhesive is only on the upper portion. The sentiment is stamped in Memento ink on a Basic White scrap using the Layered Leaves stamp set & die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies. It was attached with dimensionals. The embellishments are the 2023-2024 In Color Dots in Moody Mauve.

For the inside… The sentiment was stamped in Memento ink using the Layered Leaves stamp set ~ on a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel. This was adhered in place and the 1 1/4 strip were added in various widths – Dan’s idea! I really like how it carries that DSP throughout the card.

Oh, and the DSP at the top of the card… I forgot to mention that. It’s 3 1/8 x 4 1/4. You can also see I took the photo AFTER he wrote on it… I didn’t think it was appropriate to share his thoughts here. His Dad is in hospital right now and it’s likely the kids won’t be with him on Father’s Day. Here’s another photo of the card.

Stampin’ Up! Masterfully Made Masculine Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on June 8, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome to the happy Inkin’ Thursday blog hop! We have a sketch challenge today for our hop & I’m again using some new products I haven’t used yet :O) – Nested Essential Dies for one.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday hop, sketch challenge

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop group

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Masculine card front

As you can see I turned the sketch sideways and changed the center shape, but it works. The Nested Shapes Dies was used to die cut the center image from Masterfully Made DSP. That was my starting point and I built the card around that. Crushed Curry is a match to the yellow and I splattered it lightly with the Light Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends. I ran a strip of Basic White through one of my new favorite embossing folders called Exposed Brick 3D EF.. I adhered this directly to the Crushed Curry card base. I added the Nested Shapes die cut with dimensionals. The sentiment is from Cheerful Daisies stamp set, stamped in Memento ink on a Basic White scrap and die cut with the shape you see from the Nested Shapes Dies. It was added to the card with a dimensional at the flat end and a dab of glue at the pointy end. The embellishments are from the Tinsel Gems 4 pack in Berry Burst, the largest color in the center die cut.

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Masculine card inside

For the inside… I added the sentiment (completing the thought from the card front) three times in Memento ink on a Basic White panel. (Remember, it comes from Cheerful Daisies stamp set.) At the bottom, I added a strip of the leftover Masterfully Made DSP. This panel was added to the inside of the card and done, done.

I call this a masculine card, but it wouldn’t have to be. Remember, this is one of the Designer Series Papers on sale for 15% off. Continue reading below for more info about that!

Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Garden Dies

Posted on June 7, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Wednesday morning… I am with my Grandkids and today is finals week. Last night our grandson was studying for a history final. Goodness, I could not believe the questions – quite difficult. He’s done really well this week and I’m super proud. :O) OK… my card.

I used the new Gorgeous Garden Dies, which is another stand alone set, meaning no stamp set is bundled with it. It really is gorgeous.

I began with Lemon Lime Twist card stock and with Blending Brushes, added Calypso Coral ink, Mossy Meadow ink and Lemon Lime Twist ink, then die cut the piece with my cut & emboss machine. I ran it through a couple of times as this is a really intricate die cut and I wanted all the detail. I used little dabs of liquid glue under all the leaves to attach the die cut to the Lemon Lime Twist card base. Since I needed a sympathy card I decided on this sentiment from Layering Leaves stamp set and stamped it with Mossy Meadow ink. It’s die cut with a die from Cheerful Daises Dies, but I removed one end as I liked the look better. I tied a double bow and added it to the sentiment banner. The banner is attached with dimensionals. And the card front was done.

For the inside I used a left over strip from the blending done on the card front and adhered it near the bottom of the Basic White panel. I then stamped this beautiful image from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink along the one side. I goofed just a bit because I don’t have my acrylic blocks with me, but I still like the effect. And this panel was adhered to the inside of the card – done, done.

This card looks so pretty in person and the photos don’t really show it off. I’m so sorry!

Stampin’ Up! Masterfully Made DSP Grateful Card

Posted on June 5, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Masterfully Made is one of the Designer Series Papers on SALE @ 15% off… so I’m showcasing it a couple of times this week. And here’s the deal about this week – I’m not at home in my craft space. I only have some supplies… and I forgot some important items… like acrylic blocks (duh!) and envelopes. Silliness.

For today’s card I took a piece of this beautiful Masterfully Made DSP & cut it into a smaller panel (3 3/4 x 5). Then I cut it into strips: 1″, 7/8, 3/4, and continued down like that. I added all but the largest strip to a panel of Crushed Curry, wrapped a length of Linen Thread around it a couple of times and tied a bow, securing it with a glue dot. I put dimensionals on the back and adhered it to a Thick Basic White card base. I stamped the sentiment using Memento ink and the New Textured Floral stamp set. Since I forgot my acrylic blocks I bet you’re wondering what I used… I used one of the acrylic plates from my Cut & Emboss machine – clever, right?!

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Grateful card

Stampin' Up! Masterfully Made Grateful card front

For the inside I added the largest strip to the bottom of a Basic White panel, then attached that to a Crushed Curry piece, then to the inside of the card. I have a definite plan for this card so wanted to keep the inside plain for my own personal message. Isn’t this DSP just so pretty?!

Stampin’ Up! Bright & Beautiful Gift Card

Posted on May 29, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Memorial Day! Men and women gave their lives that we might be free ~ free to practice our faith, free to speak out, etc and etc. The list is pretty long of the freedoms we have that other countries do not. Thank you to those who served both us and our country ~ for your dedication, for your strength of character, for your willingness. Bless you. I am so very grateful.

My card today is a fun fold and could be used for graduation, a birthday, a job promotion, for just about any type of celebration. It includes a place for a gift card or money or an additional note.too.

Stampin' Up! Bright & Beautiful Gift Card

What a fun card to create. My juices were flowing. This card has three layers: card base, middle layer and the top decorated layer. I began with a card base of Azure Afternoon (what a beautiful shade of blue.) After scoring and burnishing, I punched the top two corners for a different look, using the Very Best Trio Punch. I added a layer of Blueberry Bushel to each of the three panels. The next layer is Bright & Beautiful 6×6 DSP on the top & bottom panels. For the center panel, I stamped with Azure Afternoon ink on a Basic White panel using the Beautiful Balloons stamp set. Next I attached an adhesive sheet to a small piece of the Bright & Beautiful DSP (part of the DSP Sale June 1!!!), removed the top of the adhesive sheet and added a piece of the Gold Celebrations Acetate. I die cut two balloons and a piece for the card holder. That acetate really added something special to the card! I added the smaller balloon to the center panel then added a length of the Simply Elegant trim in gold and adhered the Basic White panel to the center. The larger balloon was put on dimensionals and I added a bit of a tassel die cut from Gold Foil Sheets and attached these to the upper panel. I used the Radiating Stitches Dies to die cut a circle, then stamped the sentiment from Beautiful Balloons stamp set in Azure Afternoon ink. I used the 1 3/4 circle punch (from SU! ONLINE EXCLUSIVES) to punch an Azure Afternoon circle and adhered the two circles together. I added a Textured Ribbon in Wild Wheat to the top panel and placed the circle over (yep, it is on dimensionals as well.

For the bottom panel, I had added the Gold Celebrations Acetate to a Bright & Beautiful piece, then added the Tear n’ Tape to the sides and bottom and attached it to the card. And the card is done! Whoops – not quite… the ribbon at top… I punched an oblong opening using the Very Best Trio Punch, slipped another length of Textured Ribbon in Wild Wheat and tied it with a piece of Simply Elegant Trim in Gold.

Stampin’ Up! Delightfully Eclectic & Circle Sayings for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on May 25, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I’ve a cheerful card for you today using the sketch challenge.

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic w/ Circle Sayings

You can see I took some liberties with the sketch by first turning it sideways :O) and the center panel is off-set. I think it still works. Here’s what I did… I die cut the Delightfully Eclectic DSP (stripe) on with the largest of the Deckled Rectangle Dies and layered it on a piece of Misty Moonlight, just slightly larger. Both of these were added to the Thick Basic White card base. I took another piece of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP (the small floral print) and die cut it with a smaller die of the Deckled Rectangles Dies and adhered it to Misty Moonlight panel just a bit larger. I put dimensionals on these and attached them to the card front. I stamped this fun image from Circle Sayings stamp set in Memento ink and colored it with Stampin’ Blends: both Light & Dark Daffodil Delight for the sun and a mix of Pool Party and Light Balmy Blue for the ocean waves. I die cut this with the one of the circles from Stylish Shapes Dies. Before adding it to the card front, I cut a length of the Textured Ribbon in wild Wheat, folded it over and attached it with a couple of glue dots. The fun sun image was then added over this with dimensionals. The part that is off the smaller rectangle has two dimensionals together to make it even. The final touch was three In Color Dots in Wild Wheat.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic and Circle Sayings, inside

For the inside… I stamped the sentiment from Circle Sayings stamp set in Misty moonlight ink, then added a strip of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the bottom. Notice it also has a Deckled Rectangle edge at the bottom of it :O). It was a scrap from die cutting the larger rectangle. This was added to a panel of Misty Moonlight, also die cut with the Deckled Rectangle Dies, then onto the inside of the card base.

Stampin' Up! Delightfully Eclectic and Circle Saying card & envelope

For the envelope, more of this same stripe from Delightfully Eclectic DSP added to the flap. Notice it too has a deckled edge to it :O) On the front, another sentiment from Circle Sayings stamp set stamped in Misty Moonlight. This card is going to a dear friend who fell recently and is struggling with pain. She is an amazing organist and individual and I wanted to send something light-hearted and cheerful to lighten her spirits.

I do hope you will take the time to make the rounds of the blog hop of this fun group. I’m always amazed at the variety and talent shared. You may click on the ‘next’ button or click on a name to visit a particular blog.

Stampin’ Up! Lasting Joy with Hello, Irresistible DSP

Posted on May 24, 2023 by TL's Bright Spot

Happy Wednesday, middle of the week. Hope it has been good so far. A friend of mine is going through a hard time and I feel really badly for her. So what do I do – besides call – I make a card. Imagine that! :O)

Stampin' Up! Lasting Joy w/ Hello, Irrisistible DSP

I layered a panel of the Hello, Irresistible DSP (ON SALE JUN 1 and an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE!) to a Basic Black piece just a smidge larger, wrapped a length of the Bordered Ribbon in Lost Lagoon around the two and adhered them directly to the Thick Basic White card base. Using the 1 3/4″ circle punch (ONLINE EXCLUSIVE), I punched two circles: one from another piece of the Hello, Irresistible DSP and another from Basic Black. I adhered the two together with an upper edge of the black showing. I put these two circle on dimensionals and added them to the card front over the ribbon. I added a length of the same ribbon, slipping it under the ribbon already in place, tied a single knot and scooted it close to the circle. I placed a glue dot under the knot to hold it in place. Lasting Joy stamp set has some really nice sentiments. I stamped this on a Basic White in Memento ink and trimmed the strip down to size. I added a Basic Black strip behind it with liquid glue and trimmed the ends, adhering these on the circle with liquid glue. I added three Loose Frosted Dots for charm.

Stampin' Up! Lasting Joy w/ Hello, Irrisistible DSP, inside

For the inside, to carry through with the Basic Black, I added a panel to the inside of the card. I stamped a Basic White panel with Memento ink for the sentiment (yes, Lasting Joy stamp set!) and the sweet flower in Lost Lagoon and Flirty Flamingo inks. Yep – these come from Lasting Joy stamp set! I added another of the Loose Frosted Dots to the flower center. This panel was added to the black piece and the card was complete.

Stampin' Up! Lasting Joy w/ Hello, Irrisistible stamp set, card & envelope.

For the envelope… more of the Hello, Irresistible DSP to the flap and another leaf & flower stamped on the card front. Again, Lasting Joy stamp set, Lost Lagoon and Flirty Flamingo inks. The colors on this card are soothing and the words are hopefully comforting for my hurting friend. She tells me she saves all my cards and sometimes will display them together on her mantle. Isn’t that just the sweetest?

Stampin’ Up! Monochromatic w/ Wonderful Thoughts Bundle

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

Good Sunday morning! We have a beautiful cool day here in New Jersey – after a full day of LOTS of rain. We needed the rain, don’t get me wrong, but the sunshine is really nice :O) I created a card that is monochromatic today, and I would love your opinion on it.

I began with a Fresh Freesia card base and layered another panel on dimensionals that I had run through the Raindrops Embossing Folder. Next, I die cut five panels of Fresh Freesia using one of the dies in Wonderful Thoughts Dies. I used a sponge dauber to add a bit of Fresh Freesia to all sides of each die cut, then added them with dimensionals to the embossed panel. Next I die cut three of the flowers from Wonderful Thoughts Dies and colored them using Stampin’ Blends: both light & dark Fresh Freesia, Dark Granny Apple Green and both light & dark Daffodil Delight. I also used the Color Lifter in a couple of places on the flowers to add a bit more definition. These were added with liquid glue over the five panels. I then stamped the sentiment from Wonderful Thoughts stamp set in Memento ink on a Basic White scrap, die cut it with a die from Wonderful Thoughts Dies and adhered it with liquid glue. The last step for the card front was some Adhesive-Backed Sequins in white. I added these between the panels.

For the inside, the last of the three flowers was adhered to the bottom of this Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from Wonderful Thoughts in Memento ink, then added the panel with liquid glue and the card was done! I like the flowers on the Basic White panel and think I would like to make this card again with a Basic White card base, color the flowers similarly, etc. What do you think?

I’ve mentioned before that I’m having trouble with the html in this blog – so know my site is being worked on and in a week or so, that will be fixed! I’m very much looking forward to that…. Once it’s fixed, the html’s should be made available to past cards as well, at least, that’s what I THINK will happen :O)

You can still shop with me by visiting my store here. Items used: Wonderful Thoughts bundle, Fresh Freesia cardstock, Basic White card stock, Fresh Freesia ink, sponge dauber, Memento ink, Stampin’ Blends ~ Fresh Freesia, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Color Lifter; Raindrops Embossing Folder and Adhesive-Backed Sequins. The basics needed for creating this card: paper trimmer, cut & emboss machine, dimensionals, liquid adhesive.
