Good morning and happy Fri-YAY! A full work-week – done and done! Pat yourselves on the back! I hope you’ve got something fun planned for the weekend – we’re headed south to attend a 2nd birthday party. I call THAT something fun! 🙂
Today’s card is ALSO fun – and it happens to be a fun fold! It’s a floating tent card – and I decorated it with some Homemade Sweetness DSP and the coordinating Filled With Sweetness sentiments and die cuts! These are ALL new – coming next week on 3 March in the next Online Exclusives release. Take a look-see:
I started with a basic Pecan Pie tent card – 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored and folded at 5 1/2″.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of new Homemade Sweetness DSPto the front of the card base. Note: I made sure to get glue all over the DSP panel (versus my usual of just putting it around the edges) so that it was ready for the next step.
Using the second-from-largest Branching Out die, I cut from the center of the card front (right thru the DSP) to make a window.
Then I went ahead and folded the card. On the inside, I adhered another piece of the Homemade Sweetness DSP with more Liquid Glue.
For the. back of the card (it’s easier to put that on before you assemble the fun fold), I stamped a Filled With Sweetness sentiment in Night of Navy ink on a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock. At the bottom, I stamped the strawberry and blueberries from the set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored them with the Light and Dark Strawberry Slush, Blueberry Bushel and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends – plus the Light Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blend (the centers of the blueberry stems).
I adhered the panel to the back of the card with Liquid Glue.
Then I made the “accordion” piece that sets this card apart. Using my Paper Trimmer, I scored a 4″ x 4 1/4″ piece of Pecan Pie cardstock – along the short side – at 1/2″, 1 1/4″, 2″, 2 3/4″ and 3 1/2″. I folded and burnished each of the score lines – making it into an accordion.
Using Liquid Glue on the two ends – I adhered the accordion to the inside bottoms of the card base.
To decorate the floating panel, I used scissors to cut out a couple of jars and a honey bottle from the Homemade Sweetness DSP. I adhered them to the Branching Out die cut with Liquid Glue.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped a Filled With Sweetness sentiment in Night of Navy ink and cut it out with a Filled With Sweetness label die.
I adhered the sentiment to the panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
To create the “float” – I scored a 1 1/2″ x 2″ piece of Pecan Pie cardstock at 3/4″ on the short side and folded it in half. With Liquid Glue – I adhered the little piece to the top of the die cut panel.
Then I put Liquid Glue on the other side of the “hinge” and – with the card closed – set the panel back into the “window”, adhering the hinge to the back of the cardbase.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped two Filled With Sweetness strawberries and one blueberry in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored them with the Stampin’ Blends and cut them out with the coordinating dies in the set.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered the die cut fruit to the card front.
I added some more Strawberry Slush dots from the Strawberries & Dots pack and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Filled With Sweetness fruit on the front..,
…and more Homemade Sweetness DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! What a fun fold! It’s just different enough to be cool, don’t you think!? And I really like the cuteness overload of the Homemade Sweetness DSP – love those fussy cut jelly jars and honey bottle! The coordinating Filled With Sweetness bundle is the perfect complement – it’s got the pretty fruits – a fun jar to stamp and cut out – and several pretty label dies! You’re going to want them when they’re out available next week!

Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a sketch challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table. I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
I picked the Paradise Garden bundle – the pretty flowers and leaves seemed just right for the sketch today – and the coordinating Garden Poetry DSP. This is all part of the Garden Poetry Suite – coming in the Online Exclusives releasing on 3 March! I used it all to make a pretty thank you card – take a look-see:
And – here’s our sketch!
I also played along with the Tic Tac Toe challenge! I went down the right column – Pink – Sentiment Strip – Patterned Paper!
I did a quick video on how to make this card – which is posted on Instagram. If you’d like to give that a watch – click here!
I started by adhering a 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″ piece of new Garden Poetry DSP to a Daffodil Delight mat for the card front.
Then I embossed a 2 1/2″ x 3 7/8″ piece of Basic White cardstock in the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder. Note: like all Hybrid Embossing folders, this one is designed to work with a full-size die in the Paradise Garden die set – but…I didn’t need to use it for this card! 🙂
I matted the embossed panel on Daffodil Delight and adhered it to the card front with Liquid Glue.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock:
– I stamped two flowers (a small one and a single flower with stem) from the Paradise Garden set in Daffodil Delight ink.
– I stamped two leaves in Misty Moonlight ink – the first in full strength and then I stamped it again without re-inking.
– Finally, I inked the large leaf from the set in Blackberry Bliss ink and used a Small Blending Brush to dab-dab-dab the ink (sort of reducing the intensity). Then I stamped it on the white cardstock.
I used the coordinating dies in the set to cut out all the flowers and leaves.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered the foliage to the card front – starting with the top Daffodil Delight flowers (it’s one with a stem), then adding the Blackberry Bliss leaf and the two Misty Moonlight leaves.
Using Stampin’ Seal, I adhered a loop-d-loop of new Berry Burst 1/4″ Shiny Ribbon (part of the Paradise Garden suite and available on 3 March 2026).
On a piece of the Garden Poetry DSP, I stamped the Paradise Garden sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink. Then I cut it out with the banner die in the set.
I adhered the sentiment banner with Stampin’ Dimensionals and adhered the final Daffodil Delight flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added some new Garden Epoxy Dots (another element in the suite!) to the flower middles and the card front and the card front was done.
On the inside, I stamped a second Paradise Gardensentiment in Blackberry Bliss on a Basic White panel. Then I stamped the little flower in Daffodil Delight. And I added a Garden Epoxy Dot cuz they’re cute! 😎
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of my Berry Bliss card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the small Paradise Garden flower on the front…
…and more of the Garden Poetry DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! The Garden Poetry DSP is so pretty – with foliage on one side and pretty watercolory print on the other! And the coordinating Paradise Garden bundle – with the pretty Hybrid Embossing Folder – and sentiments and die cuts galore! – is a wonderful addition to your stamping stash!
I hope you like this fun little stamp set – and have added this to your gotta-get-it list for 3 March! 🙂
