My Twisty Thank You Card

August 10, 2021 2 Comments

My Card Front — My Twisty Thank You Card

Hello Crafty Friends! I am excited to share My Twisty Thank You Card that I made using the beautiful Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up! I made a similar card at a retreat and thought that it would be a perfect way to showcase this gorgeous DSP while providing an interactive fun fold!

Don’t you just love that when you open the card you get the first set of sentiments and then you keep opening and the sentiments flip to see the other side of them. When the card is fully open, you get all three sentiments displayed.

My Twisty Thank You Card in Action

The Details of My Card

For my card, I used the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle which includes the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set and the matching Penned Flowers Dies by Stampin’ Up! Since I needed 3 sentiments that went together, I used the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set as well. I have included my Twisty Card Template that you can download at the end of this post.

The Front of My Card

I stamped the colours of Highland Heather, Mint Macaron, Daffodil Delight and Blushing Bride for my flowers which matched the DSP and die cut them out with the matching dies. The Daffodil Delight piece of DSP helped to give a pop of colour to draw the eyes to the stamped flowers. I die cut the tag from the DSP as well. Love the Tailor Made Tags! They are so versatile! For my ribbon, I wanted it to match the colours of my card. So, I used my Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blend to colour the ribbon. This is a great way to add matching accents to your card!

I found that the DSP is quite busy. So, to make my focal point stand out, I added a Basic White scallop cut piece underneath it to help ground it. A couple of Highland Heather pearls and a Mint Macaron Genial Gem tie in the colours of my card.

Inside of My Card

For the inside of my card, I added two of the neutral simple patterns to the inside folds and then attached the sentiment. I made sure that as you flip it, the sentiments made sense: “For a true friend” “You are an inspiration” Thank you for your kindness”. I added some DSP to the back of the sentiment pieces since you see the backs as they flip. Tip: adhere top and bottom sentiment pieces and then the middle to get even placement between the pieces.

My Mandalorian Card

August 5, 2021 2 Comments

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I was honoured to have been asked to present this card and my colouring for it at the Rebels and Wizards Online Event for Paper Nest Dolls that was this past weekend. My Mandalorian Card is using Rebel Hero and the new release Rebel Baby by Paper Nest Dolls and the Magic Iris Dies by Lawn Fawn. I have included a PDF with step by step instructions on how to build the Magic Iris at the end of this post.

I just love Baby Yoda in the Mandalorian TV series. He is soooo cute! I even have a Baby Yoda stuffy that gets into all kinds of mischief. Lol! So, when I saw the new Rebel Baby digital stamp, I just had to make a card with him! My card was inspired by the last episode of season two where Luke comes to rescue Baby Yoda and his friends. I coloured Luke in dark clothes with a green light saver (or life saver as my Baby Yoda calls it! Lol!) as he appeared in this episode. The Rebel Baby is hidden behind the “door” and is revealed by the Magic Iris mechanism when the Jedi Hero opens it.

Magic Iris Opened — Magic Iris Door Open to Reveal Rebel Baby

Don’t you just love the digital paper that I used with the Mandalorian helmets and the original Star Wars logo! They were perfect for my card and were free from HaleGrafix. I sponged some Black Soot to the edges of it to give my card a gritty feel. I couple of star embellishments was all this card needed to finish it off.

My Hand-Penned Thank You Card

July 12, 2021 Leave a comment

Today I am sharing my Hand-Penned Thank You Card that is using the Hand-Penned Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I love getting the Suite Collections since you know everything will go together perfectly!

The Hand-Penned Suite Collection includes:

Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set (10% off)
Penned Flowers Dies (10% off)
Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper
Genial Gems

I thought that a Collar Fold would show off both sides of the beautiful Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper! So, I used my Collar Fold Template (found at the end of this post) to measure my DSP for the cutting and folding. Next, I used adhesive to glue the flaps down so that they didn’t interfere with the die cuts.

I wanted the “Thanks” sentiment to fit in the area between the folds resulting in a card that can be either vertical or horizontal. I found that I needed a background behind the stamped flowers to make them stand out from the DSP and the stitched circle from the Painted Labels Dies worked well for it. A butterfly was a perfect accent as if it is flitting from flower to flower on the DSP. The butterfly was die cut from the large piece of Highland Heather making sure that it was in a location that would be covered by the DSP which is a great way to save paper! A scattering of Genial Gems was all this card needed since I wanted the fold to be the focal point.

My Father’s Day Card

June 17, 2021 2 Comments

Today is I am sharing My Father’s Day Card that is using the Handsomely Suited Bundle by Stampin’ Up! I decided to create a Centre-Step Fun Fold card with the shirt on the centre panel. There is a link at the end of this post to a Horizontal Centre-Step Template.

The Details of My Card

My Father-in-law isn’t a suit kind of guy, but he does wear golf shirts in blues. So, I created a short sleeve golf shirt using the Well Suited Designer Series Paper. For the sleeves, I used the pocket die and the shirt was die cut from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I trimmed the stitched rectangle to 4 ¼” after it was die cut to fit an envelope. A number of his shirts are Lacoste with a small green allegator on the left side. Since I didn’t have any alligator dies, I used the hearts from the paws of the Pets Dies. I also figured that having a heart to represent his real heart was perfect for Father’s Day!

For my sentiment, I didn’t think “Have a Happy Father’s Day Handsome” coming from both my husband and I would be appropriate for my father-in-law. So, I used the technique of covering the part of the sentiment that I didn’t want with scotch tape. Then, I inked the stamp up and removed the tape before stamping. Once the sentiment was stamped like this, I discovered that it fit perfectly in one of the dies from the Tasteful Labels Dies. The Pacific Point banner that flanks my sentiment was also from the Tasteful Labels Dies, but it wasn’t long enough to show on both sides of my sentiment. So, I cut in half giving the illusion that my banner is longer than it is.

For my other panels, I used the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper since he is a very handy man and likes to build things with wood. The Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder was perfect for that material kind of look it gives my card.

Tips for Cutting/Scoring Card Base

At 1 ¼” from the edge of the long side of card stock cut from 1” to 5 ¼” using the Paper Trimmer blade guide. Once I cut one side, I flipped the card stock over to cut the other side. Make sure that your new cut line will be parallel to the first one. Turn so that the long edge of card stock is horizontal and score side panels at 1”, 2” and 5 ¼” and 4 ¼” for the centre panel. To download a PDF file, please see the template link at the end of the post or click the image below.

Supplies:

Stamps/Bundles/Dies: Handsomely Suited Bundle (156240), Tasteful Labels Dies (152886), Stitched Rectangle Dies (151820)

Inks: Night of Navy Classic Stampin’ Pad (147110)

Paper: Night of Navy (100867), Pacific Point (111350), Poppy Parade (119793), Basic White (159276), Well Suited Designer Series Paper (154562), In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (152494)

Accessories: Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (152718), Bone Folder (102300), Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430), Stampin’ Seal (152813), Mini Glue Dots (103683), Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755), Paper Trimmer (152392)

Measurements:

Night of Navy: 5 ½” x 8 ½” (see template for score marks), scraps (collar, buttonholes)
Well Suited Designer Series Paper (3 pieces): 3” x 4 3/8” (trimmed to 4 ¼” after die cut to fit envelope), scraps for sleeves
In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (2 pieces): 1” x 3 1/8”
Basic White: 1 ¼” x 2 ¾”, scraps (buttons)
Pacific Point: ½” x 2 3/16”

My Mini Interactive Photo Album

May 3, 2021 Leave a comment

Today is I am sharing something different than a card. I was asked by a fellow demonstrator to create a project with a Greek theme for a Demonstrator Playdate. I decided instead of creating a card that I would make a photo album from scratch of a past trip that my husband and I went on which started in Paris went on to Venice to catch a cruise visiting Dubrovnik, Corfu, Santorini, Athens, Katakolon and back to Venice. So, I am sharing my Mini Interactive Photo Album using photos from that trip.

Video of my Mini Interactive Photo Album

Video of my Mini Interactive Photo Album
Music Copyright – Moose Ca Ca, My Big Fat Greek Wedding

I had wanted to create one of these interactive albums for a long time. So, I googled how to create one and found a four part series of videos by Cal Summers with a PDF with the measurements. I will include links to her PDF and videos at the end of this post.

The Details of My Album

This kind of album is perfect for any 6” x 6” Designer Series Paper. But, since the colours of the Greek flag are blue and white, I decided to use the Boho Indigo Product Medley. The pretty little paper flowers that come in the Medley were perfect to decorate my cover. I used the World of Good Memories and More Cards and stickers with their travel theme to decorate my album along with the cut outs from the Boho Indigo Medley. The Scallop Tag Topper Punch was used for my tags and pull outs.

What is so nice about this album is that it is flexible to suit your needs. It uses the same 4 page designs twice giving you 8 pages that you can place in whatever order you like.

Spine of My Mini Album — Spine of My Mini Interactive Photo Album

I decorated my spine with a vintage metal key hole/latch with a rose that I bought from Michael’s Arts & Crafts a while back. The beads were from the dollar store and threaded on Whisper White Baker’s Twine from the Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack. I added a pretty charm with a blue stone to represent “Greece” and a Stampin’ Up! charm that I had from a key chain.

I also created a beaded bookmark with a key and Misty Moonlight Ribbon for the inside of my album.

Finally I decorated the back of the cover with the World of Good Designer Series Paper that has the golden globes on it.

Some Tips

For my covers, I used the cardboard found with the instruction for the Paper Pumpkin Kits. I tend to keep them just in case I can recycle them somehow.

I didn’t have any Tyvek. So I used a used plastic mailing envelope that I cut down to the correct size. As long as it will not stretch or rip and is flexible, it should work.

Make sure that you secure the ribbon to tie your album closed to the cover before you add the decorative elements on the covers and spine. Lol!

2021-23 In Color Bookmarks

April 18, 2021 14 Comments

Every year I am asked to create a Stampin’ Up! In Color bookmark file. So I am sharing my 2021-23 In Color Bookmarks using my Stampin’ Up! 2021-23 In Color Bookmark file that I created for this purpose. Here are some examples of what can be done with them. These are only a few ideas. You could add the 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum or the In Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper Assortments. When you download the PDF files, print them with the fit to page setting in the Adobe Acrobat on Basic White. All files are at the end of this post including a German and French version, as well as the files for the 2020-2022 In Colors from last year.

Brilliant Wings Bookmarks

For the bookmarks with the Brilliant Wings butterflies, I die cut them from the In Color card stock and the stamped flowers from Hand-Penned Petals. I added an In Color Jewel for each colour and threaded some of the In Color Open Weave Ribbon through the hole created by the Scallop Tag Topper Punch. I only had the Scallop Tag Topper Punch, but you could use the Fancy Tag Topper Punch or the Delightful Tags Topper Punch instead. This is my favourite bookmark since the In Color Jewels really sparkle on it.

Version 1 of My 2021-2023 In Color Bookmarks Using Ink and Card Stock

Stampin’ Up! Blends/Markers Bookmarks

For my next bookmark, I stamped in Memento Ink the images from the Forever Blossoms on Basic White card stock and used my Stampin’ Blends for the flowers and my Stampin’ Write Markers for the leaves. Then, I die cut them out with the Cherry Blossom Dies. I also added bling to them using the In Color Jewels and Loose Flower Flourishes. I finished them off with the ribbon the same way as the previous bookmarks.

Version 2 of my Bookmarks Using Stampin’ Up! Blends

Easy Card Stock Bookmarks

For my last set of bookmarks, I cut a ½” x 11” strip of card stock for each colour. I glue them directly to the print out before cropping the bookmarks down. I them cut them apart creating 5 bookmarks. Fast and easy!

My Gingerbread Fun Fold Card

November 19, 2020 2 Comments

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing My Gingerbread Fun Fold Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls. I used a number of digital stamps to create my fun gingerbread card including Gingerbread House, Gingerbread Boy, Gingerbread Girl, Ginger bread Winter Boy, Tiny Emma with Cookie and Tiny Ellie with Candy Cane.

I had so much fun creating this wonderland of gingerbread. My idea was that I wanted to create a centre-step card and planned to use my colouring from the recent 30 Day Coloring Challenge to build my card. I’m so happy with how it turned out!

The Steps of My Gingerbread Fun Fold Card

I created a ton of layers with the snow banks that all sparkle with Stardust Stickles and then layered my characters between them in the different folds. Of course, that is not all that sparkles! The windows of the house, Ellies’s candy cane and Emma’s peppermint candy bow all have glossy accents. I even added Clear Wink of Stella to the peppermint swirl on the house, the gum drops in front of the house, the Gingerbread Girl’s bow and hearts and the heart on Ellie’s dress! Can’t have a Christmas card without Christmas trees all dressed up for Christmas with stars and red Christmas lights! The Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper by Stampin Up! was perfect to create my snowy scene.

Here is a template that I created that gives you the measurements for the centre-step card that I made. There is also a link at the end of the post that you can download the PDF version.
