Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at my OnStage @ Home event sitting at my craft table all day today & tomorrow. I love these events and can’t wait till we can go in person again and be with all my team members and other demonstrators from all over the United States and around the world. Until then, I sit comfortably in my own home.

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! Merriest Moments Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to Basic White mats.

I adhered the layered panels to a Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the belly band I wrapped a strip of Mossy Meadow cardstock around the card base and adhered the ends together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Seasonal Labels Dies. Using the Merriest Moments stamp set I stamped the holly leaves in Mossy Meadow Ink, the berries in Blushing Bride Ink, the pine boughs in Mossy Meadow Ink, stamped off once, and the mistletoe image in Mint Macaron Ink. I cut all the images out using my Merriest Frames Dies. I arranged the pine boughs and mistletoe behind the sentiment using Glue Dots. I adhered the holly leaves and berries together using Glue Dots and then to the front of the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment collage to the belly band using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Polished Pink 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Basic White panel. Using the Merriest Moments stamp set, I stamped the holly leaves in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel and the berries in Blushing Bride Ink above the holly leaves. I stamped the pine boughs in Mossy Meadow Ink, stamped off once, on the top of the panel and the mistletoe in Mint Macaron Ink over the pine bough image. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the holly leaves images from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the berries image in Blushing Bride Ink below the holly leaves. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder 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. This is my last card of the week using the beautiful Whimsy & Wonder DSP. Please let me know in the comments if you like the focus of using a specific DSP. I’d love to hear your feedback. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card.

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments for Fun Fold Friday Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all day Saturday, but I have off on Sunday, YAY!!!

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! Merriest Moments Bundle, the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Bundle along with the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of the Ever Eden DSP to Brushed Metallic cardstock mats. I adhered the layered panels to the Soft Succulent card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

From a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock I cut the largest leaf frame using my Eden Dies. I cut the pine bough wreath from a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock using the Seasonal Swirls Dies. I cut the Evening Evergreen frame down until I had the wreath that I wanted. I adhered the 2 halves together using Glue Dots. I adhered the pine bough wreath on top of the leaf wreath using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped 2 of the smallest poinsettia image from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Merry Merlot Ink. I cut the images out using my Merriest Frames Dies. I stamped 3 of the pinecone image from the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink and cut them out using my Seasonal Swirls Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the Basic White panel and cut the sentiment out using my Ornate Frames Dies. I adhered the poinsettias together using a Glue Dot and then to the wreath using a Glue Dot. I adhered the pinecones to the wreath using Glue Dots. I adhered the wreath to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon and adhered it to the wreath using a Glue Dot. I twisted the tails of the bow and adhered them down using Glue Dots. I added 3 of the smallest pearls from the Pearl Basic Jewels to the center of the poinsettia.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the pine bough image from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the small poinsettia image from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and then to the inside of the Soft Succulent card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pine images from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on the top of the envelope front and the larger poinsettia image from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Merry Merlot Ink on the bottom front. I adhered a panel of Ever Eden DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Inspired Thoughts for Fun Fold Friday Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend.

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! Beauty of Tomorrow Bundle, the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set along with the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I joined in with Creative Creases #18

I started by adhering a Blackberry Beauty DSP card front to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to the front of a Rich Razzleberry card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock. I cut the sentiment out using my Tasteful Labels Dies.

I adhered a length of the Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front then adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I adhered 2 panels of the Blackberry Beauty DSP to Early Espresso mats and then to the inside of the Rich Razzleberry card base. I scored & cut a panel of Rich Razzleberry cardstock as follows. First score the panel at 2 1/8″, 4 1/4″ & 6 3/8″. Make a little tick mark on the short edge 1 1/2″ up from the bottom. Cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. The 2 1/8″ & 6 3/8″ score lines are valley folds and the 4 1/4″ score line is a mountain fold. I cut a panel of Early Espresso cardstock by making a tick mark on the short edge 1 1/4″ up from the bottom. Cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. Cut the panel in 2″ intervals. I cut a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock by making a tick mark 1 1/8″ up from the bottom of the short edge. I cut from the tick mark to the upper left corner on a diagonal. Cut the panel in 1 7/8″ intervals. Emboss the 2 center Very Vanilla panels using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere the Very Vanilla panels to the Early Espresso mats. Adhered the layered panels to the Rich Razzleberry panel

Adhered the layered panel to the inside of the card base using Tear & Tape on the ends. Once it’s adhered it will look like the above picture.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock stamp the larger floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Cling Stamp Set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off once. Stamp the smaller floral image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink, stamping off once. Stamp the bird image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso Ink, stamping off once. Cut all the images out using the Beautiful Leaves Dies. Adhered the die cut images to the center embossed panels using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink and cut the sentiment out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Adhered the sentiment to the top of the inner panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink, stamping off once, on the envelope front. I stamped the bird image from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso Ink, stamping off once, on the opposite side of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Blackberry Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Sneak Peek for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? 33 years ago today on a cool rainy fall day, I married my best friend. It stopped raining just long enough for the ceremony and to get some outside pictures. You can actually see in some of our pictures the floods behind us (it had down poured the day and night before). Like many couples we’ve had our ups and downs, but mostly ups. Here’s to another 33 years together. He surprised me with a bike for our anniversary. He bought one for himself a while back and thought it would be fun bike riding together. I don’t know if he really knows how old I am and that I haven’t been on a bike since I was a teenager. Hopefully I can remember how to stay upright and not face down on the pavement. Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend between both jobs.

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! Blessings of Home Bundle along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper (both items will be available in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog) for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding a Pale Papaya card base at 1 3/4″, 4 1/4″ & 6 3/4″. The 1 3/4″ score line is a valley fold, the 4 1/4′ score line is a mountain fold and the 6 3/4″ score line is a valley fold.

I adhered 5 panels of the Heart & Home DSP to 5 Basic Gray mats.

I adhered the 5 layered panels to the Pale Papaya card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the largest floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set in Pale Papaya Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink over the floral image. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside Basic Gray mat.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the smaller floral image and the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. I colored the floral image in using my Just Jade, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I added some Clear Wink of Stella in the flower centers. I cut the floral image our using my Flowers of Home Dies and fussy cut the sentiment using my Paper Snips. I cut a few of the leaf dies from a panel of Garden Green cardstock using the Flowers of Home Dies. I cut a panel of Basic Gray cardstock using the Tasteful Labels Dies and then embossed the die cut using my Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I made a belly band for my card using a strip of Pale Papaya cardstock by wrapping it around the card and adhering it together. I wrapped a piece of Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the belly band and adhered it on the front. I adhered the leaf dies to the back of the floral die and adhered the floral die to the Basic Gray label die using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered artwork to the belly band. I added a Bumblebee Trinket by the flower and some Genial Gems on the card front.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small floral image from the Blessing of Home stamp set in Basic Gray Ink and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Holly-Days for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Can you believe it’s the middle of October already? Another month flying by. Before you know it , it’ll be Halloween, then Thanksgiving and Christmas, YIKES! How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend between both jobs.

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! Happy Holly-Days Cling Stamp Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the top of a Blushing Bride mat.

I scored a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP as shown in the template above. On the left side I made a little mark 1 1/2″ down from the top. I cut from the 2 1/4″ score line to the 1 1/2″ mark using my Paper Trimmer. I folded on the score lines as I marked on the template as Valley Folds and Mountain Folds to make the curtain.

I adhered the folded panel to the bottom of the Blushing Bride mat. I wrapped a piece of the Blushing Bride 3/8″ Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon around the layered panel over the seam. I adhered the card front to a Mossy Meadow card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the bird image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Powder from the Metallic Embossing Powder pack and set it using my Heat Tool. I colored the holly in using my Blushing Bride and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Write Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink and cut it out using the Harvest Dies. I fussy cut the bird and holly using my Paper Snips. I adhered all the cut pieces to the card front. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the images in using my Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers and Blushing Bride Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat and then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base. I added a couple of the 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be working all day tomorrow at the dog bakery and all day Sunday at the hardware store.

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 new Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Cling Stamp Set for my fun fold today. This suite will be available to customers on November 2nd. The DSP will be while supplies last.

I started by scoring and folding 2 card bases. I scored a Soft Succulent 8 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ card base at 5 1/2″. I scored an Evening Evergreen 8″ X 3″ card base at 4″. I adhered panels of Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper to Evening Evergreen mats. I adhered the larger layered panel to the inside of the Soft Succulent card base.

I adhered the smaller layered panel to the Soft Succulent card base front.

I embossed a panel of the Ever Eden Cotton Paper using the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden stamp set in Versamark Ink on the embossed panel. I immediately sprinkled it with Gold Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the embossed panel to a Soft Succulent mat and then to the front of the Evening Evergreen card base. I added a few Brushed Metallic Dots to the embossed panel.

On the inside I stamped the large floral image from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink, stamping off once, on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink over the floral image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base. I adhered the Evening Evergreen card base to the center of the inside of the Soft Succulent card base, facing the opposite direction.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the sprig image from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Ever Eden Specialty 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. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post.

Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Fun Fold with Video Tutorial

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I hope you were able to join us yesterday for our Inkin’ Krew World Card Making Day Facebook Event. There were 9 of us that did live videos making some beautiful cards, there were giveaways when you left comments on some of the posts and a lot of inspiration going on.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video yesterday. 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! Delivering Cheer Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Holly Jolly Wishes Cling Stamp Set along with the Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Series Paper for my non-traditional Christmas card today.

I started by using the Delightful Tag Topper Punch on the Smoky Slate card base and cut the right and left side of the panel on the top by sliding the paper into the punch and lining up the edge of the cardstock with the punch. I trimmed the excess pieces using my Paper Trimmer and scored the punched tag on the right side. With the scored tag to the right, I scored the card base at 4 1/4″.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the bottom and top sections of the lady from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set on the top of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Ivory, Pale Papaya, Smoky Slate and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat using Stampin’ seal and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiments from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set and the Stampin’ Up! Perfectly Plaid Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink to the left side of the panel. I stamped just the top part of the presents from the Delivering Cheer stamp set on the bottom right of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them in the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White pane to a Pale Papaya mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I threaded a piece of the Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon through the 2 punched tags and tied a bow. I added a few Pale Papaya Genial Gems to the card front.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the top of the presents from the Delivering Cheer stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them in the same as for the card. I adhered a panel of Peaceful Place 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. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the 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.

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? By the time you are reading this I will be in the air flying to Georgia for our retreat (hopefully). I can’t wait to get there to stamp, eat and laugh with friends all weekend long.

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. A couple weeks ago I told you I was going to a Sunflower Maze. I did go and it was amazing. That is where some of my inspiration for my card today came from. I’ve shared a few pictures below of our day at the maze. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Cling Stamp Set, the Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by cutting my Night of Navy card base. I cut the front panel at the 2 3/4″ mark to the outside edge. I then cut on the 4 1/4″ score line up from the 2 3/4″ cut line. I adhered a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP to a Cinnamon Cider mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the bottom of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the small sunflower from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and the bouquet from the Jar of Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the flowerpot image from the Stampin’ Up! Plentiful Plants Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on the Basic White panel. I colored the images in using my Balmy Blue, Cherry Cobbler, Cinnamon Cider, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the small sunflower image out using my Sunflower Dies and the flowerpot image using my Perfect Plants Dies. I fussy cut the sunflower bouquet using my Paper Snips. I cut a few sprigs from the Sunflower Dies from a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock.

I fussy cut one of the flowerpot images from a panel of the Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP using my Paper Snips. I adhered the Soft Succulent sprigs to the back of the flowerpot using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sunflower bouquet to the front of the flowerpot using Glue Dots then adhered the arrangement to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside on a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the stem image from the Stampin’ Up! Daisy Lane Cling Stamp Set in Garden Green Ink. I cut the panel at 2 1/2″ and fussy cut around the stem using my Paper Snips. I adhered a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP to the top of a Cinnamon Cider mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel with the stem to the bottom of the Cinnamon Cider mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Plentiful Plants stamp set in Garden Green Ink on the DSP panel. I adhered the small sunflower die to the top of the stem using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the die cut flowerpot to the bottom of the stem using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small sunflower image from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom front of the envelope and colored it in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Hope you had a productive one and are ready for the weekend. Does anyone have any plans? I believe I will be working both days.

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! Whimsical Trees Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my fun fold card today.

I started by scoring a full panel of Mint Macaron cardstock. With the 8 1/2″ side on the bottom of the trimmer I scored at 4 1/4″. I turned the cardstock so the 11″ side was on the bottom of the trimmer and I scored at 5 1/2″. I took my score blade out of my trimmer and lined up the corners with the cutting indent and cut the panel from corner to corner making sure to go through the center mark on the cardstock. This will give you 2 card bases. I folded the top triangle down and the side triangle over. I cut a panel of Blushing Bride cardstock from corner to corner so that I had 2 triangles. I cut a panel of Whimsy & Wonder Spec. DSP from corner to corner so that I had 2 triangles. I adhered one of the triangles of the Whimsy & Wonder Spec DSP to one of the Blushing Bride triangles using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered it to the front of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On another panel of Blushing Bride cardstock, which I adhered an Adhesive Sheet to the back, I cut multiple garland dies using the Christmas Tree Dies. I adhered them to the other Blushing Bride triangle to fill in most of the spaces and trimmed the excess using my Paper Snips. I adhered the panel to the other front of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the ornament and holly images from the Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink twice. I colored the images in using my Mint Macaron, Polished Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using my Christmas Trees Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a small panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock, which I cut a scalloped edge using the Penned Flower Dies, using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the ornaments to either side of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the strings. I adhered the holly on top of each set of ornaments using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to the top of only one side of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Genial Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the light image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Polished Pink Ink over the tree image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the light image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Polished Pink Ink over the tree image. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder Spec DSP to the envelope flap

Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Does anyone have any plans for the weekend yet? I’ll be working all day Saturday and Sunday at both jobs.

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! Sparkle of The Season Bundle for my card today along with the Beauty of The Earth Designer Series Paper and the Cork Specialty Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Cork Specialty Paper to a Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Cajun Craze cardstock using the Stitched Rectangle Dies and embossed it using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. I sponge some Cajun Craze Ink on the embossed panel using my Stamping Sponge. I adhered the embossed panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut out 2 of the swirly wreaths using the Seasonal Swirls Dies, 1 in Gold Metallic Specialty Paper and the other in Early Espresso cardstock. I cut multiple leaves from scraps of Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Soft Succulent cardstocks. I cut the leaves and adhered them to the Early Espresso wreath using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Gold wreath to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the Early Espresso wreath over the Gold wreath using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut 3 of the pumpkins from the Seasonal Swirls Dies and adhered them to the wreath using Glue Dots.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Ornate Frames Dies. I made a multiloop bow from Linen Thread and tied it with a piece of White Bakers Twine, from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack, which I colored using my Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Marker. I adhered the bow to the wreath using a Glue Dot and adhered the sentiment under the bow using a Glue Dot and Stampin’ Dimensional.

On the inside I adhered 2 panels of Cajun Craze cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. For the insert I used a panel of Beauty of The Earth DSP. I scored the panel first in half then diagonally from corner to corner both ways. The center half score line I folded as a mountain fold and the corner to corner score lines as valley folds. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card using Tear and Tape on the sides of the panel.

This is how the card will look from a top view. The top and bottom portion of the DSP will be the mountain folds.

I cut 2 of the largest triangles from the Stitched Triangle Dies from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set on the left triangle in Cajun Craze Ink. I stamped the branch/leaf image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler and Pumpkin Pie Inks, stamping off once on both of the triangles. I adhered the triangles to the 2 sides of the DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the branch/leaves image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Bumblebee and Cherry Cobbler Inks. I adhered a panel of the Beauty of The Earth DSP to the envelope flap.
