Stampin’ Up! Trucking Along for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday afternoon stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. I hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend. I’ll be working tomorrow, but I do have off on Sunday.

I’m a little late today with posting, it’s been a crazy week for me, and I didn’t get my card finished until a little while ago. This is one of those cards that I kept making mistakes and I was determined to finish the card properly. After I was all finished and loving how my card turned out, I realized the stamp set I used is no longer available in the Online Exclusive store in English. You can still purchase it in French if you just want to use the images. but you are able to make the truck part of the design using the Truck Builder Punch which is still available. I don’t usually post cards if items are not available, but with a little tweaking you can use this design for anything.  If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Trucking Along Joy Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Trucking Along Photopolymer Stamp Set, Stampin’ Up! Scenic Pumpkin Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set, Trucking Along Builder Punch, Iconic Celebrations 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper which are all Online Exclusive products. I also used the Spotlight On Nature Dies and Stylish Shapes Dies for my card today.

Adhere panels of Iconic Celebrations DSP to Mossy Meadow mats using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the plaid layered panel to the small Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue. Adhere the largest layered panel to the inside of the large Basic Beige card base using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the truck image from the Trucking Along stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image using Basic Black, Mossy Meadow and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. Punch the truck out using the Trucking Along Builder Punch. On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the road image from the Trucking Along stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Stamp the outline tree image in Mossy Meadow Ink, the solid tree image in Crushed Curry Ink and the outlined cloud image in Boho Blue Ink. Color the tree trunk using the Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Marker. Cut the stamped panel out using the 2nd largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Using the Spotlight on Nature Dies, cut a panel of Mossy Meadow using the die just a bit larger the Basic Beige circle cut. Decide where you want to put the truck and stamp the pumpkin image from the Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink. Stamp the stem image from the Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on top of the pumpkins. Adhere the Basic Beige circle to the Mossy Meadow circle using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the truck to the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the layered circle to the small card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a small strip of Basic Beige, stamp set sentiment from the Trucking Along stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Cut the ends on an angle using Paper Snips. Adhere the sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the small card base to the inside of the larger card base, making sure the card opens left to right.

On the inside, stamp the sentiment from the Trucking Along stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. Stamp the outlined tree and grass image in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the solid tree image in Crushed Curry Ink. Stamp the pumpkin image from the Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the stems in Mossy Meadow Ink.

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well.

Today’s card is one that we made last Tuesday at our stamping studio for mystery stamping. I had cut a few panels of the DSP wrong, but I was able to salvage them and make cards. One of them I had posted on Saturday, and I have 1 more to post in the next week. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Expressions Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

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.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Expressions Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

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 sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. Fussy cut the sentiment using Paper Snips.

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.

Stampin’ Up! Changing Autumn Leaves

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to the middle of July already. I feel like I just said happy July. I’m not sure where time is going lately. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? I worked, did some cleaning and attended out team meeting via zoom yesterday.

I have a quick CAS card for you today using some Online Exclusive products. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Changing Leaves Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #644.

My colors are from The Color Throwdown Challenge #801. I really like these colors together; they give me a cozy feeling.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered a panel of Cajun Craze to the right side of a Crumb Cake panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a panel of Night of Navy next to the Cajun Craze panel using Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I embossed the layered panel using the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Night of Navy Ink. I stamped the largest leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Changing Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, next to the sentiment. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Night of Navy Opal Round to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Changing Leaves stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the largest leaf image from the Changing Leaves stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink, stamping off 2 times on scrap paper, on the Basic White panel. I stamped the smaller leaf image from the Changing Leaves stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat then to a Cajun Craze mat. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf images from the Changing Leaves stamp set in Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake and Night of Navy Inks on the envelope front and flap.

Stampin' Up! Changing Autumn Leaves 7 creativestampingdesigns.com
