Stampin’ Up! Highlighting Country Cottage DSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning, good morning & happy Thursday! We have cooler temps these days on the Jersey Shore and the treews are beginning to turn, some a yellow, some a gorgeous tinge of red and some orange. This time of year always fascinates me. Our hummingbirds have left for the season too – just prior to the Nor’easter that blew through. What’s going on in your part of the world?

On with the hop! Thanks for stopping in. The sketch below indicates Oct 1, but it really is for Oct 8!

I began with a Crumb Cake card base and a Country Cottage DSP cut 4 x 4 1/2 layered on Secret Sea 4 x 5. I wrapped around the white Baker’s Twine (from the Essential pack) & tied a bow, securing this in place with a glue dot. I added the Secret Sea & DSP layer with dimensionals and attached it to the card base. I then added three Natural Mat Dots in Secret Sea.

For the inside… I stamped this beautiful wreath from Cottage Kindness stamp set in Crumb Cake ink (and YES _ this has a coordinating die!!!) The sweet bow is also from Cottage Kindness stamp set & is stamped in Secret Sea ink. The Basic White panel is 4 x 4 1/2 and the Secret Sea layer is 4 x 5 1/4. The Cottage Kindness bundle are part of the November ONLINE EXCLUSIVES that will be available Nov 3. Gorgeous set! Gorgeous Suite of products!

For the envelope… more of the Country Cottage 12 x 12 DSP on the flap & trimmed to fit. I needed a masculine kind of card and this works so well! I stamped the sentiment ‘for you’ on the envelope front in Secret Sea ink and it too is from the Cottage Kindness set. Below is an image of the suite.

Stampin’ Up! Front Flap Dun Fold w/Fun for Fall Bundle

Oh this scarecrow is just too cute! And I’ve used it on this front flap fun fold card. We made this card in class on Thursday & the group loved it. My hubby called this a card with a tongue! 😀

Stampin' Up! Fun for Fall Front Flap Fun Fold card front

I’ve used several products to make this card… the Gingham Vellum paper in Golden Glow on the flap (2 3/8 x 5 3/8), the beautiful Sunflower Fields DSP on the card front, inside strip and the envelope, Stitched Circles Dies, Radiant Gems in Secret Sea and all the fun elements in the Fun For Fall bundle, plus Stampin’ Blends to color the circle & the stamped & die cut pieces.

To color the scarecrow: Light Misty Moonlight, Calypso Coral & Golden Glow; the sunflowers are Golden Glow & Pecan Pie center; the crow is light Basic Black & Golden Glow on the beak; and finally the bales of hay are stamped in Pecan Pie ink then colored with Golden Glow & Calypso Coral. The circle die cut was created with a Blending Brush Calypso Coral first then Cajun Craze – the scarecrow is standing out in the field in the hot sun! He looks as though he’s enjoying his job!

Stampin' Up Fun for Fall Front Flap Fun Fold first layer

Here’s the card front with the ‘flap’ up, showing off that beautiful Sunflower Fields DSP. It’s layered on Cajun Craze and the card base is Calypso Coral. The DSP is cut 3 x 5 1/4 with the Cajun Craze 3 1/8 x 5 3/8. The card base is 7 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 3 1/2. The flap is 2 1/2 x 6 1/4 scored at 5 1/2 and attached to the inside of the card (covered by the sentiment panel (see below)

Stampin' Up! Fun for Fall Front Flap fun fold inside

And here’s the inside of the card with the bail of hay and the sassy crow. The hay bail is stamped in Pecan Pie & colored with Golden Glow & the ‘twine’ is Calypso Coral. The crow is Light Basic Black and Golden Glow on the beak. The DSP on the side is 1 x 5 1/4.

Stampin' Up! Fun for Fall card & envelope

For the envelope… more Sunflower Fields DSP on the flap 2 1/4 x 6 & trimmed to fit. On the front, the same images as on the inside of the card. Such a fun, fun card! This can be masculine or for a woman or for a child… versatility. Say hello, congrats, or feel better soon in whatever you write.

Stampin’ Up! Moonlit Flora for a Book Fold

Good morning, good morning. The Moonlit Flora DSP has been super popular & I’m using it today to make a book fold card. That luna moth is in it’s glory & the focal point for this card.

Stampin' Up! Moonlit Flora DSP in a book fold

Measurements:

  • Card base: Secret Sea 11 x 4 1/4, score @ 5 1/2 & 4 1/2
  • Layer: Peaceful Pine 7/8 x 4 1/8; 4 3/8 x 4 1/8; inside 4 3/8 x 4 1/8
  • DSP: Moonlit Flora 3/4 x 4; 4 1/4 x 4; inside – 4 1/4 x 4 1/8; flap – 2 1/4 x 6
  • Basic White: inside – 4 1/4 x 4

When cutting the DSP, it’s helpful to have the ‘scene’ go all the way across., therefore the initial cut of the DSP should be 5 x 4, then trim left end to 3/4 leaving 4 1/4 for the right side. I added the 1/4″ Satin Ribbon in Secret Sea & Gold (available Sep to customers!) for focus and prior to adding the inside layer of DSP. The sentiment is from the Fern & Flora stamp set with the border in Secret Sea & the sentiment in Peaceful Pine. It was die cut with the coordinating Fern & Flora Dies and added with dimensionals. The extra elements are the Adhesive-backed Metallic Gems in gold – and there are five of them.

Stampin' Up! Moonlit Flora DSP book fold inside

The inside… DSP on the left is from Moonlit Flora & just adds a nice touch to this card. On the right, the Basic White panel is with the fern leaf three times without re-inking – in Peaceful Pine. The butterfly is stamped in Secret Sea. Both are from the Fern & Flora stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Moonlit Flora DSP card & envelope

For the envelope… more Moonlit Flora DSP on the flap & trimmed to fit. The stamping on the front is in Peaceful Pine – the same fern stamp as on the inside, but this time re-inked each time before stamping again.

These products are all from the May-Aug 2026 Catalog (except for the ribbon).

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

Good morning! Today is such a FUN FOLD blog hop 😀, I can’t wait to see what others on the team have created. I have two versions of the floating gatefold and will give you measurements for both. One is made with the Framed Violets bundle and it’s coordinating DSP called Violet Dreams. The other is with a bundle from an ONLINE EXCLUSIVE that is older and just too cute.. Cutest Crew – and Beautiful Ordinary Life 12×12 DSP. You can use so many different papers or bundles for this fun fold.

Directions for putting this gate fold together…

  • Do stamping prior to attaching the Basic White pieces ~ for center panels & back (for writing your stuff!)
  • Burnish all score lines: card base ~ mountain, valley, valley, mountain; floating section ~ mountain, valley, valley, mountain.
  • Centering floating piece top to bottom, add to the last fold on right butting fold of floating section against fold of card base.
  • Do the same on the left side, centering top to bottom.
  • Add final piece of DSP over this attached floating element
  • Wrap belly band around closed card and add glue to each end to attach together. DO NOT LET IT STICK TO THE CARD!!! 😀
  • Decorate belly band

Stampin’ Up! Festive Cheer Christmas Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome to our hop! It’s Thursday & we have a sketch challenge this week. I’m using a ‘new to me’ stamp bundle called Festive Cheer. I’m loving all the images & dies in the set :O)

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop group
Stampin' Up! blog hop challenge
Stampin' Up! Festive Cheer card front

My card begins with a Cherry Cobbler card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. Two layers were added: Peaceful Pine & 2026-2028 In Color Gingham Gallery 12×12. I set these aside to do stamping & die cuts using the Festive Cheer bundle from the July ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. Yes, I have begun that Christmas card plunge! Die cuts were made using the Festive Cheer Dies and Velveteen Assortment 12×12 Specialty Paper for two pine fronds; Cherry Cobbler card stock with a backing of Adhesive Sheet for the NOEL; Gold foil for the berries. I stamped the ornament in VersaMark, sprinkled it with WOW! Metallic gold embossing powder & heat set then die cut once cooled. I also die cut from gold foil, the hanger and the ornament top.

The letters NOEL were attached to a Basic White strip that had Peaceful Pine behind it for definition. These we4re added with dimensionals. The pine frond was added with a dimensional at the left end and liquid glue on the stem end. The berries were added with dots of liquid glue. The ornament was added with liquid glue and a mini dimensional at the top.

Stampin' Up! Festive Cheer inside card

For the inside I stamped the sentiment from Festive Cheer in Peaceful {ine ink, then the ornamets in Cherry Cobbler ink and the ornament top in Pecan Pie ink. This Basic White panel was added to a Peaceful Pine then to the inside of the card. Voila! Ready to send, but of course it is only July!!! In the stack it goes. 😀

Stampin' Up! Festive Cheer card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the 2026-2028 In Color Gingham Gallery attached with Stampin’ Seal to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the front the sentiment was stamped three times in Peaceful Pine ink. Interestingly I only used the Festive Cheer bundle for this card – no additional sentiments from another set. So, love that!

Now, time to see what the others in our group have created for today – I’ll bet they are fab! Click the next button to take you to Amy, or click on a name to visit someone else. Enjoy the hop!

Stampin’ Up! Woodland Wishes, July ONLINE EXCLUSIVE

Good Sunday morning! It’s beautiful this morning, a refreshing 67 at 6 AM. So today is… a Christmas card using the very sweet Woodland Wishes stamp set. And if you enjoy coloring as I do, this is a fun stamp set to have in your Christmas stash.

Stampin' Up! Woodland Wishes C'mas Card

I used Memento ink to stamp the image on a Basic White panel and colored with several different Stampin’ Blends: Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate, Pecan Pie, Ivory, Light Pumpkin Pie,Petal Pink, Poppy Parade, Dark Cloud Cover, Light Old Olive & Light Mossy Meadow. I also used Shimmer Brush in Golden Glow and Wink of Stella. Once colored this was attached to a Real Red 3 7/8 x 5 1/8. I embossed a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Crumb Cake with the Forever Plaid embossing folder and attached it to the Crumb cake card base (4 1/4 x 11) The stamped images were then added with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment in Real Redink on a Crumb Cake strip, then again in VersaMark, sprinkled it with Clear embossing powder & heat set.It’s best to use the Stampin’ Positioner for this step! I angled the ends and attached with dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Woodland Wishes inside card

For the inside… I stamped this very cute porcupine in Memento ink & colored him with Stampin’ Blends using Crumb Cake. I stamped the stars also in Memento ink and used the Shimmer Brush in Golden Glow to color them. Theis 3 3/4 x 5 panel of Basic White was attached to Real Red 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 then added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Woodland Wishes card & envelope

For the envelope, I used the Woodland Wishes to stamp both the flap & the front with images from the Woodland Wishes stamp set – all in Memento ink. I colored them as well: Stampin’ Blends in Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Petal Pink and the Shimmer Brush inGolden Glow. What a peaceful scene this all creates!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Flight Hot Foils, Card 2

Yep – another hot foils card using the Butterfly Flight Hot Foils Dies. 😀 In my post on 7/9, you say the die cuts made & colored… this time I used the foil left over from the transfer to create this card. Let nothing go to waste is the motto. hee hee. I took a panel of Basic White, Blending Brushes & Pool Party & Granny Apple Green and added color to the card stock panel. I then laid the ‘leftover’ foil on top after strategically adding Stampin’ Seal in various areas. This held the foil in place &allowed the colors to come through where the gold foil was transferred to something else. I used the piece with the die cuts removed, put dimensionals on the back & attached them together. The card base is Pool Party, standard A2 size (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4) and the new card front was added with adhesive of choice. Because I had a remaining butterfly I added it as well with two Rhinestone Basic Jewels, then added more of the same to all the butterflies on the card front.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Flight Hot Foil card 2

For the inside, I stamped the sweet lily from Lily of the Valley stamp set (yes, it comes with dies!) with Basic Gray ink and colored with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends and Shimmer Brush in Barely Blush. The sentiment is from the Lily of the Valley stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink. The panel was added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Flight inside card w/ Lily of the Valley

For the envelope… the same lily from Lily of the Valley stamp set was stamped on the front in basic Gray ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends Granny Apple Green and Shimmer Brush in Barely Blush. The flap got a 2 1/4 x 6 strip of the Valley In Bloom 12×12 DSP added & trimmed to fit. Love, love.

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Hot Foils Fun Fold with Valley in Blooms DSP for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Welcome welcome. Oh it is so energizing to try new products and new fun folds, etc. etc. I think we have a treat for you today.

Stampin' Up! Blog Hop group
Stampin' UpHop  Theme Challenge

Let’s look more closely at this card with some other photos.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Flight Hot Foil fun fold, flat
Stampin' Up! Butterfly Hot Foil fun fold, flat, other side

What’s neat about this fun fold is the way it opens and flips or flaps one way or the other while the center remains intact. It’s hard to describe, but it can close either way & it fits in a standard A2 envelope.

How to make this card… and it might help to do a template first! This is called a flip-flap card.

  • Card base is 6 3/4 x 5 1/2. Mark all four sides lightly with a pencil at the 1 1/4″ mark.
  • With the long side at top, score at 2 3/4 & 4″ both above & below the 1 1/4″ mark
  • With the long side at top and the right edge at the 1 1/4 mark on the right side of the paper trimmer, cut from 1 1/4″ to 4 1/4″ (or the pencil mark). Follow this with long side at top for the opposite side.
  • With short side at top & the right edge of paper at the 1 14″ mark on the right side of the trimmer, cut from 1 1/4″ to 2 3/4″. Flip paper over & with short side at top, do same on opposite end.
  • You have now connected the cuts, leaving the center held at top & bottom between the scored areas of 2 3/4″ & 4″ 😀
  • Burnish the scores as mountain & valley.
  • Now you may decorate! Be sure to erase your pencil lines prior to adding your DSP pieces 😁 Long panels on both right & left are 1 1/8 x 5 3/8 (cut 2 for front & 2 for back. Add these with adhesive of choice. Short sections at top & bottom are the same dimensions: 1 3/8 x 1 1/8, 1 1/8 x orate.1 1/8 & 1 3/8 x 1 1/8. Cut 4 of each for both front & back. Adhere appropriately. The center section is 4 1/8 x 2 7/8 (cut 2 – one for front & one for back). Adhere & decorate.
  • You can see I used the Valley In Bloom 12×12 DSP & the Lily of the Valley stamp set for the one sentiment (to one of the nicest people I know) stamped in Garden Green ink. The colored butterflies were done using the Hot Foil machine on Willow White paper then colored after the foil process with Stamp[in’ Blends: Blackberry Bliss & Pool Party. The small foil dies were die cut from Gold Foil using the Butterfly Flight Dies. The happy birthday sentiment was made with the hot foil system using White Will & of course the gold foil for the system & heated then die cut – Classic Greetings Hot Foil Dies. All butterflies were added with dimensionals.

For the envelope…only the flap was decorated – using a pattern from the Valley In Bloom 12×12 DSP.
