Fun Fold card

Stampin’ Up! Strong of Heart Sneak Peek Reverse Easel-Fold with Video Tutorial

Posted on July 25, 2021 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all! I hope your weekend is going well! We’ve spent it close to home – Wayne is doing dirt work and I got my craft room organizing all… “done”! 😉

If you were able to join me last night for my Facebook live – I appreciate you spending part of your weekend with me. If not, but you’d like to watch the replay – here’s the link!

This card features a new set – called Strong of Heart – from the new Jul – Dec 2021 Mini Catalog available on 3 Aug. And the host-exclusive Pattern Party DSP (get this one right now with a workshop or individual order of $180 or more in retail!). Take a look-see:

The color palette is from the Global Design Project’s color challenge – although my blue is Misty Moonlight. 🤷‍♀️

This is a Reverse – Easel fun fold card – and I got the basics for how to do it from Sam Calcott in the UK at Mixed Up Craft. 🙂

I started with a piece of Basic Black, cut at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, then I used my Simply Scored Scoring Tool to score at the 2 1/8″ and 4 1/4″ on the long side.

I folded the 2 1/8″ score as a “mountain” fold and the 4 1/4″ score as a “valley”.

I cut a piece of black paper from the Pattern Party DSP, matted it on Coastal Cabana and then adhered it to the large “inside” panel with Liquid Glue.

Next are two smaller panels of Pattern Party DSP – the Misty Moonlight design – matted on Coastal Cabana and adhered to the two smaller front panels with Liquid Glue.

I cut out the largest rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Die set from a piece of Basic White, then stamped it with the large, flower-embellished heart from the Strong of Heart set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. When it was good and dry, I colored the leaves with my Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Write Marker and the flowers with my Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Combo.

Using Liquid Glue on just the top half of the back of the die cut, I adhered it to the top panel of the fun-folded card base – thus creating the easel.

I stamped the sentiment in Coastal Cabana on Basic White and cut it with a Tasteful Labels die. Then I popped it onto the art panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I made an “easel stopper” using a black-and-white flower-strewn piece of the Pattern Party DSP. First I colored the flowers with my Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Combo. Then I matted it on Coastal Cabana and popped it onto the large panel with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I flipped the card over and added a sentiment panel. The Strong of Heart sentiment is stamped in Coastal Cabana on Basic White and flanked by a couple of Polished Pink hearts. It’s matted on Coastal Cabana and adhered to the back panel of the card base with Liquid Glue.

I added another Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends-colored Pattern Party DSP strip to the adjacent panel of the card base – and the card was done!

My Basic White Medium Envelope got a few Polished Pink Strong of Heart hearts on the front…

…and more of the Pattern Party DSP on the envelope flap.

Et Voila! Y’all – I LOVE the floral heart image in this Strong of Heart stamp set – and the sentiments are amazing!). And…it’s a SPECIAL stamp set! It’s the Stampin’ Up! Make A Difference set and for each of them sold they’ll donate $3 to support Heart Health! So…YOU get a SUPER cool and pretty stamp set AND you’ll be doing good at the same time! 🙂 Seems like a pretty awesome deal! And – while you’re at it – be sure to pick up the huge-value (and ALSO super pretty!) Pattern Party DSP!

I hope you like!

If you’d like to make these little projects, all the card cut measurements and products used are listed down below!

Finn Fan Fix

Well. Friday was VERY exciting for Finn! Okay – us, too – it’s been WAY too long since we’ve had company for dinner! Finn was able – as a dog-kid – to simply express his overwhelming happiness to just SEE EVERYONE!!

And he did!

He wiggled and jiggled and squiggled and smiled like a loon.

He tried to convince all the company that at THIS house, the dog eats pizza with the family.

He may or may not be right about that! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Because he is who he is – he finally crashed when we got back in the house after going to the barn to feed.

But not before going into the living room to retrieve his Boo-Bear.

I suspect he was wondering why we were all congregated around the table yakking!

It’s bedtime, y’all!!

Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Friendship Sneak Peek Fun Fold with Video Tutorial!

Posted on April 23, 2021 by stampsnlingers

Morning, y’all – happy Friday! Hope you’ve got something cool planned for the weekend. I feel like we do, but…I can’t think what it is. So….guess we’ll see as the days go by, huh? I KNOW we’ll be doing some planting. But…beyond that… 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

If you were able to join me yesterday for my YouTube live, I appreciate you spending part of your day with me. If not, but you’d like to check it out, here’s the replay on YouTube! 🙂

I pulled out a new stamp set – so new, in fact, that only Demonstrators can get it right now! That’ll all change on 4 May with the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog! This is the Flowers of Friendship stamp set and the bundled Flowers & Leaves Punch. And…I’ve showcased three great new 2021-2023 In Colors! All in a super-easy fun fold. Take a look-see:

This one was inspired by the CASE The Designer challenge over on the Global Design Project Challenge this week.

I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I used the next-to-largest Stitched Rectangle die to cut a panel that I adhered to a Thick Basic White card base, at a jaunty angle, with Liquid Glue.

I used the same Stitched Rectangle Die to cut a Basic White panel. Using my Stamparatus, I stamped the Flowers of Friendship sentiment in Fresh Freesia. Then I popped the panel onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White, I stamped the large and small flowers and leaves from Flowers of Friendship in Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent. Then I punched the pieces with the bundled Flowers & Leaves Punch.

I adhered the leaves with Liquid Glue then popped the flowers over top with more Dimensionals. Then I added a Pale Papaya gem from the new 2021-2023 In Color Jewels to the middle of the flowers and the card front was done!

For the back, I again used my Stamparatus, first to add a second sentiment from Flowers of Friendship in Fresh Freesia to a Basic White panel. Then, using the Marker-to-Rubber technique – I stamped the large floral image in Fresh Freesia, Soft Succulent and Early Evergreen.

I added another 2021-2023 In Color Jewel, used Liquid Glue adhere the panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then onto the back of the card base.

To make the “tent mechanism” – I used a 3 1/4″ x 3 7/8″ piece of Basic White (tip – if you’re using a different color card base – match that color, okay?). Using my Simply Scored Board, I scored along the short side at 3/8″, 1 5/8″ and 2 7/8″. Then folded at the score lines – Valley, Mountain, Valley.

I used Tear & Tape adhesive on the short “tabs” to adhere the mechanism to the inside of the card base. Check the video if these words are more confusing than helpful! 😉

And that was it for the card.

My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Flowers of Friendship floral on the front (Stamparatus, again!)…

…and more of the flowers and leaves on the envelope flap.

I also made the same card with Pale Papaya and one with Pink Polish as the focal colors!

Et Voila! Pretty easy way to notch up a “basic” tent fold card, am I right? 🙂

I am LOVING the new 2021-2023 In Colors, aren’t you? And the new Flowers of Friendship set with its bundled Flowers & Leaves Punch really lets them shine, don’t you think??

I hope you like! And – if you’re wanting to pick up all the new In Colors cardstock, Designer Series Paper, Inks, and Refills…check out my Special Bundle #1: 2021-2023 In Color Bundle.

Sometimes, the only thing that can make a girl (or her husband – he just won’t admit it!) feel better is some good old-fashioned retail therapy!

So – as I mentioned in my video, we went to Costco on Wednesday – and ended up buying more Confederate Jasmine (so we’ve got three now!) and some lavender. And three more of the amazing trellises…trellisae?…that we’d bought a couple weeks back.

And Wayne has been building horse-shoe planters for us (it’s a theme here!) – sized to fit 20 gallon Grow Bags.
