Stampin’ Up! Best Catch Fun Fold with Video Tutorial for The Paper Players

Hey y’all – it’s Sunday, which means I’ve got another fun challenge for you from the Paper Players – it’s a nice, open sketch challenge from the talented Laurie this week and it’ll for sure jump-start your creative mojo!  I hope you’ll come and play along.  🙂

If you were able to join me yesterday for my Facebook Live video, I appreciate you spending some of your weekend with me!  If you weren’t able to watch the live version, but you’d like to see the replay on YouTube…here ’tis!

Today is Wayne’s birthday so I made him a card!  And, since he’s a fisherman and…a guy!…a fun-fold with a fishing theme seemed like the way to go.  It ended up being kind of an homage to several wonderful retiring goodies – including the Best Catch stamp set and bundled Catch of the Day die set.  Take a look-see:

And here’s this week’s Paper Players CAS challenge!  Hope you’ll join the fun and show us your projects!  I can’t wait to see what you create!  🙂

I also played along with the TGIF Challenge this week!

I started with a piece of Night of Navy card stock that I embossed in the High Seas 3D Embossing Folder (yes – this is RETIRING, so…get it quick!).  Then I matted it on a piece of Soft Suede for the card front.

The accordian fold is 4 1/4″ x 9″.  I colored the “sky” with my Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Combo and the ground with my Crumb Cake Combo.  Then, using the little “gravel” image in the Best Catch set, I stamped all over the “ground” in Soft Suede.  I stamped the image two or three times without re-inking.

Next, I scored the panel with my Simply Scored tool at 1″, 2″, 4″ and 6″.  I burnished the folds – starting with a “mountain” at 1″ and then valley (2″), mountain (4″) and valley (6″).

On the third panel, in Night of Navy ink, I stamped a sentiment from Best Catch.  Then I adhered the folded panel to a Soft Suede mat and onto the card front with Liquid Glue.

On a piece of Whisper White – I made a big ole splotch of Old Olive using my Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Combo.  I just used both blends to scribble a big enough “background” to cut three of the grass dies in the Catch of the Day set.  While I had it out, I also cut four of them from the Old Olive color in the Perennial Essence Vellum (Retiring).

I colored all the tops of the cattails with the Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend.

The Best Catch bass is stamped in Soft Suede on Whisper White and cut with the matching Catch of the Day die. Then I colored it with my Old Olive, Calypso Coral and Early Espresso Watercolor Pencils.

Finally, I stamped the fisher-dude in Soft Suede, and cut him with his die.  He’s also colored with the Watercolor Pencils.  His little “water” swirly is colored with the Balmy Blue Blends.

Using Liquid Glue (or Glue Dots for the vellum grasses), I adhered the pieces on various panels – being sure to not interfere with the folds!  I nestled the bass in and amongst some grass…and used my Soft Suede Stampin’ Write Marker to hand-draw a few birds in the corner.

The final piece is the sentiment.  It’s a word cut with the Well Written Dies (yep – also retiring!).  I cut three of them in Night of Navy and adhered them in a stack with Liquid Glue.  Then I adhered just the first part of the sentiment to the first panel.  and the card front was done!

On the inside, I added a second sentiment (this one is from the Bonanza Buddies stamp set – which is retiring, too!) in Night of Navy to a Whisper White panel.  I colored some “shore” at the bottom of the panel and stamped the creel in Soft Suede and a hat in Crumb Cake.  I lightly colored both images with my Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend and the Early Espresso Watercolor Pencil.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Soft Suede mat and into my Night of Navy card base, and to adhere the card front and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got more shoreline and Best Catch fishing gear on the front…

…and I added a little Come Sail Away DSP (you guessed it….going away!) on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  So – this card – with it’s Best Catch, Catch of the Day, Bonanza Buddies, Well Written, Come Sail Away DSP, Perennial Essence Vellum and High Seas 3D Embossing Folder (whew!) – is a true memoriam to some wonderful products that will be gone-baby-gone SOON!  So – if you don’t have them in your stash, you need to remedy that right away!  Remember – while the stamps will for sure be around thru the end of the catalog – ALL the rest is “while supplies last”.  So…tarry not!

Stampin’ Up! You’re Wonderful Birthday Bonanza Buddies

Good morning – and happy happy HAWWWWMP DAY!!!  This is a BIG day.

In the immortal words of Vivian Ward…HUGE!

Movie reference? Anyone?  Bueller?

Sorry – got sidetracked.  BIG day – first off – the Retiring List for the 2019-2020 Annual and 2020 Jan-Jun Mini Catalogs will be released this afternoon (around 1pm Mountain time).  I’ll post when they go live – so be watching for that!

Second – for Demonstrators – today is the day that we get to see the all new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog!!  Whoo-hooo!  I’m so excited – and I just can’t hide it!!  Don’t you wish YOU were a demonstrator so you could see it, too?  Hmmm – I wonder who could help you with that?!? 🤷‍♀️

So – you’ve seen my notice down below that the Bonanza Dies are back in stock, yes?  Well – I decided to play with them today, along with the bundled Bonanza Buddies stamp set and the super cute Birthday Bonanza DSP.  Need to replenish my birthday card stash!  Take a look-see!

The layout for this one comes from one of the three sketches in this month’s Mojo Monday challenge.  Can you guess which one??

And I played along with the Hand Stamped Sentiments inspiration challenge!

I started with some paper from the Birthday Bonanza DSP that I matted on Terracotta Tile for the card front.

Then I picked two more likely DSP designs and adhered small rectangles to another Terracotta Tile mat with Liquid Glue – then to the card front with more Glue.

I cut a Stitched Shapes square die from a piece of Whisper White for the sentiment.  I added the Bonanza Buddies sentiment in Bermuda Bay.

With Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, I stamped the balloon string image and then popped the square onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped three balloons from Bonanza Buddies on Whisper White – one each in Terracotta Tile, Mango Melody and Coastal Cabana inks.  Then I cut them out with their die in the Bonanza Dies set.

Using a combination of Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals, I adhered them to the sentiment square.

I stamped the striped birthday hat in Mango Melody on Whisper White and cut it with the die in the Bonanza Dies set.  Then I adhered it to the square with a little dab of Liquid Glue.

With an even smaller dab, I added a Bermuda Bay pompom from the Assorted PomPoms pack.  And the card front was done, easy peasy!

On the inside, I added a second Birthday Buddies sentiment in Bermuda Bay to a Whisper White panel.  Next to it, I added some little pompom/sparkle images – in Mango Melody, Coastal Cabana and Terracotta Tile.  I added a narrow strip of DSP, matted on Terracotta Tile, across the bottom.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Terracotta Tile mat and into my Bermuda Bay card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got more pompom/sparkles on the front…

…and a little more Birthday Bonanza DSP on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  This is just the cutest birthday suite, don’t you think?  The Birthday Buddies stamp set is adorbs on its own – but add in the Bonanza Dies to cut the stamped images (AND some of the images in the Birthday Bonanza DSP!) and you’ve got a winner winner chicken dinner.

I tell you – missing these dies would be a BIG mistake.  HUGE!

I hope you like!

You know – little sisters – even when they’re like…THREE times your age!…can be annoying as all heck.

Like…when you and your dad are intently watching a B-movie.

With Bruce Lee AND Jean Claude VanDam.

WITH subtitles – so…you can’t look away for a second!

And then – out of nowhere – right in the middle of “the big fight scene”…

BOOM!

Dang cat.
