Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday.  Are you ready for the weekend? Is anyone starting to make plans yet? I’ll be working all day tomorrow and Sunday.

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live 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, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the NEW Stampin’ Up! Autumn Expressions Bundle along with the Splendid Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today. These items will be available starting on September 4th from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog.

Score & fold a Night of Navy card base at 5 1/2″ & 8 3/4″. On the 4 1/4″ edge of the small, scored section make a little mark in the center at 2 1/8″. Cut from the 2 1/8″ mark to the score line going up and down to make the triangle. Fold the card base in half at the 5 1/2″ score line and fold it back at the 8 3/4″ score line to make a ‘Z’ fold card. Adhere a 3″ X 3″ panel of Night of Navy on the front section over the triangle so it’s a diamond.

Adhere a panel of Splendid Autumn DSP to a Moody Mauve mat using Stampin Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the front of the Night of Navy card base, under the triangle, using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the wheat image from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Expressions Cling Stamp Set in Wild Wheat Ink, stamp some full strength and some stamped off once. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Moody Mauve mat, then to the Night of Navy diamond on the card front. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. Fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips. Adhere the sentiment to the center of the stamped Basic White panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the Autumn Expressions Dies, cut the leaf dies from panels of Moody Mauve and Mossy Meadow. Adhere a Woven Golden Leaf (available Sept 4th) and 1 of each of the die cut leaves under each side of the sentiment using Glue Dots. Tie a small bow using the Wild Wheat Rustic Stripped 3/8″ Ribbon (available Sept 4th). Adhere the bow to the bottom of the diamond under the sentiment using a Glue Dot.

For the inside, adhere a panel of Splendid Autumn DSP to a Moody Mauve mat. Adhere the layered panel to the inside left of the Night of Navy card base. Adhere the 2″ X 4″ panel of Splendid Autumn DSP to the right side of the 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″ panel of Moody Mauve. Adhere the layered panel to the inside of the Night of Navy card base. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. Stamp the wheat image from the Autumn Expressions stamp set in Wild Wheat Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhered the Basic Whtie panel to the inside of the Night of Navy card base on the Moody Mauve mat.

To finish the card, decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the wheat image from the Autumn Expressions stamp set in Wild Wheat Ink on the envelope front, some stamped full strength and some stamped off once. Adhere a panel of Splendid Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my sneak peek of 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 it.

September-December 2024 Mini Catalog Paper and Ribbon Shares Open for Ordering

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on September 4th 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 September 9. Wouldn’t you love to have all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers in the Stampin’ Up! September-December 2024 Mini Catalog?  What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!  If you were to purchase all of the DSP in the new Catalog, it would cost you over $135.00 plus shipping and if you were to purchase all the ribbon it would cost you over $60.00.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail Shipping

How my 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 with labels listing the Name, Item # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  

New Designer Series Paper Share – $21.00 plus $9.00 for Priority Mail shipping

Double DSP Share – $42.00 + $9.00 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ X 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ X 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ X 6″ since they’re already precut.

New Ribbon Share – $17.00 plus $9.00 Priority Mail Shipping

All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons.
