Stampin ‘ Up! Front flap Thinking of You Fun Fold

Hi folks! Today is – GAME DAY… are you for the red (Kansas City Chiefs) or green for the Eagles? Because of where I live, the Eagles are the players of choice. :O)

On Thursday evening I learned a friend of mine is on hospice care and it really threw me for a loop. I was shocked and dismayed – and heartbroken. This card is for her…

I combined a couple of Stampin’ Up! items… Winter Meadow DSP and the free during Sale-a-Bration bundle called Heart Shaped. It’s delicate, it’s beautiful and perfect for so many occasions.. Here I used I a heart stamped from paper I created with Blending brushes and several colors. I’ll link to the post here that will give all the info about how to do that. The two small flowers were die cut from that same paper with dies from Heart Shaped Dies.

I began with a Thick Basic White card stock 5 1/2 x 7 1/2 scored on the long side at 4 1/4. Cut layer pieces (here it was Misty Moonlight cs) 3 1/8 x 5 3/8 for the front and 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 for the inside. DSP panels should be 3 x 5 1/4 and 1 x 5 1/4. Adhere the larger DSP panel to the larger card stock piece then secure to the card front. The 1″ strip should be added to a Basic White piece 4 x 5 1/4 for the inside of the card. Cut another piece of Basic White 1 x 3 and score at 1/2″ on one end. This will become the tab for the front ‘flap’. Add this tab to the back of the card stock layer for the inside of the card, centering it top to bottom. Now add this card stock to the inside of the card. It will look like the photo below.

Add the 1″ DSP strip to the right edge of the Basic White layer, then stamp the sentiment.. Here the sentiment is from Everyday Greetings stamp set and stamped in Misty Moonlight ink I also added the stamped heart, twice – once in Pretty in Pink and the second in Moody Mauve stamped off once. Adhere this to the inside of the card.

Now close the card and center the square that attaches to the flap. The layers are Basic White 2 3/4 x 2 3/4, Winter Meadow DSP cut 2 5/8 x 2 5/8. The die c ut heart is attached with tiny dabs of liquid glue. The flowers are attached with a mini dimensional for one and liquid glue for the other. The sentiment is again from Everyday Greetings and stamped in Misty Moonlight ink. It was die cut with a banner die from the Heart Shaped dies, then one end trimmed. This was attached with mini dimensionals.

Unfortunately I do not have a photo of the envelope – ugh! – but I did attach more of the Winter Meadow DSP to the flap, trimmed to fit, then stamped the grouping of flowers in Pretty In Pink ink on the envelope front.

I made three more cards using this same ‘pattern’ but chose different DSP for those and different card stock bases as well.I’ll share those photos below.

Stampin’ Up! Meandering Meadows DSP Simple Card

Good morning! Today’s card is super simple – intentionally. I’m interested in making several of these to use as a quick notice of thinking of you, or concern, or birthday, or just a note, whether it be of appreciation or thanks or hello friend. I love the color contrasts in this DSP and for the simple layers. Behold… Meandering Meadows 6×6 DSP.

Stampin' Up! Meandering Meadows DSP, hello

Blueberry Bushel is one of the coordinating colors for this DSP and I used it for my card base (4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2). I trimmed the Meandering Meadows DSP to 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 and adhered it to Petal Pink just slightly larger. These two panels were added to the card base with dimensionals. As a final touch, three birds were added from the Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds. They show beautifully because they are brass!

Stampin' Up! Meandering Meadows DSP hello, inside

For the inside… I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray ink onto a Basic White panel, and it comes from the Garden Meadow stamp set, then added a strip of the Meandering Meadows 6×6 DSP to the bottom (a continuation of the pattern from the card front). This was added to another panel of Petal Pink just slightly larger, then into the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Meandering Meadows DSP card & envelope

The envelope flap got more of the same panel of Meandering Meadow DSP, just the other side of that 6×6 piece to create the card front! On the front of the envelope, I stamped the floral image in Basic Gray ink as it simulates the flowers in the scene on the card front. :O) Stampin’ Up! is really clever in the way they pair the DSP with stamp bundles – and actually, these are all a part of a suite of products in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. You may find that link here.
