Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Are you ready for the weekend? I hope you are making some fun plans. I have to work on Saturday and Sunday is our quarterly in person team meeting.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set and the Butterfly Kisses 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is the template for the card as promised.

Once I cut and folded the Basic White cardstock as in the above picture, I adhered panels of Butterfly Kisses DSP to Fresh Freesia mats. I adhered the layered panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the stem/leaf image from the Simply Fabulous stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the Basic White card base. I added Fun Flower Resin Shapes to the top of the stamped stem image.

I fussy cut multiple butterflies from the Butterfly Kisses DSP using my Paper Snips. I adhered the butterflies to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the Basic White panel for the inside, I stamped the stem/leaf image from the Simply Fabulous stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink on the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the inside of the Basic White card base. I adhered the fussy cut butterflies on the inside using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the stems and leaves from the Simply Fabulous stamp set in Parakeet Party Ink. I stamped the hearts on the stems in Calypso Coral Ink. I adhered a panel of Butterfly Kisses DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

July – December 2022 Mini Catalog Designer Series Paper Share

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog, and I’d love to have you join in on it!!  I’m placing my share order on July 1 and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of July 11.

How shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!

Here are the Designer Series Paper Shares that I am offering from the new Mini Catalog:

New Designer Series Paper Share – $29.00 plus $5.50 for First Class Mail shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP and specialty paper packs (the number behind the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

• Black & White – 6
• Boughs Of Holly – 6
• Festive Foils Specialty – 3 (one of each color)
• Gingham Cottage – 12
• Lights Aglow Specialty 6″ x 6″ – 12

In all, you’ll receive 90 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!

Double DSP Share – $58.00 + $8.50 Shipping by Priority Mail – I’ll cut the designer paper sheets into 6×12 so that you’ll be able to get 3 A2 size card fronts from each sheet (except for the Lights Aglow, Metallic & Shimmer and Real Red & White Glimmer Paper, you’ll get double sheets of those since they’re already precut).

FREE Gift From Me! – As a bonus for joining my share, you’ll also get a sampler of the Rings Of Love and Silver & Gold Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper Packs and a sampler of the Celebrate Everything host exclusive paper!

Anyone is welcome to join in my share (please note, I can only ship to addresses within the US).  If you’d like to join email the following information to creativestampingdesigns
