Stampin’ Up! Sparkling Snowflakes for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you all ready for the weekend? Does anyone have any plans yet? I have off tomorrow for our Virtual OnStage @ Home event. So, I’ll be sitting in front of my computer from 11am-5pm.

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 is my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Sparkling Snowflakes Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sparkling Snowflakes Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder, Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! One Horse Open Sleigh Suite, Radiating Stitches Dies and Garden Meadow Dies for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Sparkling Snowflakes Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Misty Moonlight card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. For the main front panel, I scored and folded a panel of Basic White Thick cardstock at 1/2″ & 1″ on either side. I cut the center of the panel out using the arch from the Garden Meadow Dies. I then embossed the panel using the Snowflake Sky EF.

From a panel of Basic White, I cut 3 sets of the snowbanks using the Horse & Sleigh Dies. On the panel of Basic White, I stamped the bunny image from the Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh Photopolymer Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink. I cut the image out using the Horse & Sleigh Dies. I cut 2 trees from a panel of Early Espresso using the Horse & Sleigh Dies. I adhered one of the trees to the outside of the card front using a Glue Dot. I adhered the other tree behind the arch to the inside of the panel. I adhered the snowbank dies to the bottom of the Basic White card front panel using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals, off centering them to give some dimension to the snow. I adhered the bunny between the snow using a Glue Dot. I adhered the card front to the Misty Moonlight card base using Tear & Tape, making sure to line up the sides evenly.

On a small panel of Misty Moonlight, I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using the larger circle from the Radiating Stitches Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a snowflake from the Adhesive-Backed Snowflake Assortment to the sentiment.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered 2 strips of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to either side of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

Stampin' Up! Sparkling Snowflakes Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front, stamping off once on scrap paper. I stamped the bunny and snowbank image from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink next to the trees. I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the envelope flap.

*********************************************************************************************************

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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.
