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 both days this 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 is my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Blessings of Home Cling Stamp Set and the Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.
This is the template for the Basic White Thick card base.
I scored, cut and folded a Basic White Thick card base as in the template above. I adhered 2 panels of Subtle DSP to the front of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I stamped the small flower image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I colored the image using my Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, Mint Macaron and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the larger of the flowers in the bouquet using my Blushing Bride Ink and my Water Painter filled with alcohol. I cut the image our using the Flowers of Home Dies. From a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock, I cut a few sprigs using the Flowers of Home Dies. I adhered a piece White 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon to the left card front panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the flower image over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sprigs under the flower using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.
For the inside of the panel, I adhered panels of the Subtle DSP along the top and bottom. On either side, I adhered sprigs that I cut from panels of Blushing Bride and Mint Macaron cardstock using the Flowers of Home Dies. I wanted a small bumblebee, so I stamped the bumblebee images from the Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home Cling Stamp Set in Smoky slate Ink on either side of the center pop section.
I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the small pop up panel on the inside of the Basic Whtie Thick card base.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the smaller flower image from the Blessings of Home stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Subtle 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.

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: BFQ24SXS
Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog! Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials. Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.
Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards!
Happy Stamping, Karen

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.
Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:
- You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
- If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
