Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Bundle with Many Medallions Dies for Christmas

May 29, 2020

It’s not too early for Christmas cards, friends…in fact, I know a lot of gals who have theirs done already! I made my first one of the year using the Forever Fern Bundle and the Many Medallions Dies coming out on JUNE 3 in the NEW Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

I used a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Rustic Retreat stamp set that is carrying over into the NEW catalog. The ribbon is retired but it was Shaded Spruce with gold in it! It’s hard to see in the photo but I embossed the white stitched rectangle with the Pinewood Planks Folder.

The Real Red panel under the white Many Medallions die cut is cut to 4″ x 5-3/16″.  It fits perfectly although the top part is not adhered as well in the photo! Bad CindyLeeBee:(

This was actually super easy to make with its clean and simple layering.

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

May 27, 2020

Ah, I love the sunflowers…from the NEW Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle

Watch this video to see how to make two cards when you essentially design one card…

 

A LANDSCAPE orientation above and a PORTRAIT orientation below with decorated insides to show off the beautiful sunflowers in the Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle.

The Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder jazzes up the Very Vanilla space on the card quite nicely if I do say so myself:)

Garden Green: 4″ x 5-1/4″- cut leaves from the panel before covering with Embossed panel

I will let you in on a little secret I figured out AFTER I made the video…you can also emboss a 3-3/4″ x 5″ Very Vanilla panel and adhere to the 4″ x 5-1/4″ Garden Green panel. Stamp and die cut two sunflowers and cut in half with scissors and place on the upper or left side of the card! But…hey, we got to spend a few minutes together today!
