Stampin’ Up Cup of Christmas Gift Card Holder Video Tutorial

August 21, 2019

Oh my, a GREAT new Christmas Bundle coming out on September 4
called Cup of Christmas….LOVE IT!

I used mostly the Cup of Cheer Dies on this quick and easy gift card holder.
Here is a video showing how easy it is to make the holder.

I am totally over the top in love with the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper-
beautiful threads of GOLD accents on each 6″ x 6″ piece!
The rich colors of Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler and Shade Spruce are perfect with the gold.

A simple sentiment that is perfect for a Starbucks card:)

Stampin’ Up You Always Deliver Gift Card Holder

August 19, 2019

I just loved the Stampin’ Up You Always Deliver stamp set when I first saw it
since I have been known to tell my UPS driver that he is one of my favorite people!
However, I made him a USPS carrier fo this card:)

I made a gift card holder simply by scoring a 4-1/4″ x 9-3/4″ piece of cardstock
at 4-1/4″ and 8-1/2″ on the 9-3/4″ side and folding up the edge at 8-1/2″ to create a pocket.

Of course, you know I cut my oval scallops out of the Crumb Cake panel on the front;)

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Another Stampin’ Up Band Together with Bloom and Grow Cut Front Panel Card

August 16, 2019

I used up some scraps leftover from my experimenting with the Cut Front Panel Technique card.
You can see it HERE.

I started with this design but made my split straight across the card.
And since I had a few different panels from experimenting I made another one with a black card base.

I like how the additional black card base really finishes the card, what do you think?

If you didn’t catch the video on Wednesday, take a look now HERE.

Hope your weekend involves a little bit of crafting!

Stampin’ Up Band Together with Bloom and Grow Cut Front Panel Video Tutorial

August 14, 2019

Here is a simple way to put a WOW on your card front. Simply cut out a section of the front panel on the card.
I used the large bloom from the Band Together stamp set along with the pretty sentiment from the Bloom and Grow stamp set.
The Birch Background stamp is a great way to jazz up the background in a subtle way.

How did I do it?

On the card below, I placed the cut panel flat on the front. It gives a different look than just adding a sentiment banner across the front.

On the next card below, I placed fun foam under the cut panels on the front. A great look, don’t you think?

I stamped the bloom on the inside with the fantastic font in the Bloom and Grow stamp set.

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Stampin’ Up We’ll Walrus Be Friends

August 12, 2019

I keep saying the name of this stamp set…and I get it, but then, I don’t know…
it’s kinda hard to say to get the pun!
But one thing I do know, the walruses are just so darn cute!

I did mask off the “hi” to make it flow with the “It’s your Birthday!”

Since I used my Stampin’ Blends to color the cuties, I cut out the inside one and adhered it to the inside since it would bleed onto the back of the card base if I had colored on the card base.
