Stampin’ Up! Good Morning Magnolia Storybook Fold Technique Video Tutorial

April 22, 2020

Be sure to check back at 1 pm MT (3 pm EST) to see the RETIRING LIST

from the Annual and Mini Catalogs!!! 

I have an awesome fun fold technique for you today…a Storybook Fold…
an old technique but new for me!

It is not difficult at all… watch this video to see.

 

I used the NEW Ornate Borders Dies on this card.

The measurement for the inside folding mechanism is the same if you use Designer Series Paper or cardstock with DSP on it.

Isn’t it cool? It looks like it took so much time to do but it didn’t!

I tried out Petal Pink as my card base on this one.

I switched it up on this card and used Mossy Meadow as my card base.

I liked the contrast of the darker DSP with the Petal Pink border on this one.

Measurements:
Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″ on the 8-1/2″ side
Folding Mechanism inside: 5-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ cut and scored as shown in video:
With 5-1/4″ side at top of trimmer- put left side at 1″ and cut down from 1” to 7-1/4” to create two 6” slits, turn the paper and do this on the other side, too. Then, turn paper so that 8-1/4″ side is at top of trimmer and score in between the slits at 1″ and 1-3/4″ on both sides. You will also score in between the slits at 4-1/8″ and outside the slits to the top and to the bottom of card base, you will score in  2-1/2″ from each end.
DSP on Front: 3-3/4″ x 5″, Inside: 2-1/4″x 5″ cut as shown in video for sides, (4) 3/4″ x 1-3/4″
Border around DSP on front: 4″ x 5-1/4″
Early Espresso Ornate Border Die is cut from a 1-1/4″ x 3-3/4″ piece of cardstock, DSP is 3/4″ x 3-3/4″

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Stampin’ Up! Pedal to the Metal with Perennial Birthday

April 20, 2020

Granny Apple Green reminds me of my nephew’s Kawasaki dirt bike so I used this color scheme on a card using the Stampin’ Up! Pedal to the Metal stamp set.

Every time I cut a Stitched Rectangle, I literally can’t help but make a frame by layering another one around it or cutting out the middle of it if I am going to cover it up…and then…I end up with this pile of random Stitched Rectangle frames or whole Stitched Rectangles cut out of the middle of another one I used already on a card. Well, I ended up using two pieces from my stockpile on this card! The diagonal striped Stitched Rectangle came from my guitar card on Friday.

I really like the Stampin’ Up! Pedal to the Metal stamp set-
a dirt bike, a truck, and a four-wheeler are a good mix for guys and girls, too!

The big bold sentiment comes from the flowery Stampin’ Up! Perennial Birthday stamp set- another one of my favorites.

The diagonal striped DSP is from a retired Neutrals Paper Stack (12 x 12) that had diagonal stripes/little flowers and polka dots/script in the stack. Any black and white pattern would work to give a backdrop for the dirt bike. If you make one, send me a pic!

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Stampin’ Up! Music from the Heart

April 17, 2020

I played around with the Stampin’ Up! Music from my Heart stamp set over the weekend.
I love how the Silver Foil Stitched Stars Dies added some pizzazz to this card!

The guitar was made by adding the neck of the guitar to the treble clef…isn’t that cool?
The stamp set is really a neat one- look at all the versatile sentiments and musical images.

I know ABSOLUTELY nothing about music so I am sure my notes are placed all crazy…lol.
I have the utmost respect for musicians!

The diagonal striped DSP is from a retired Neutrals Paper Stack (12 x 12) that had diagonal stripes/little flowers and polka dots/script in the stack. Any black and white pattern would work to give a backdrop for the guitar. If you make one, send me a pic!
