New Post With A Cute Card!

 Sending Hugs!

I just love these adorable hugging Badgers! Stampin' Up!'s artists design the cutest stamp sets! This Bundled set is called Hearts & Hugs. 

Order The Hearts & Hugs Bundle Here.



Instructions:

Cut a Pool Party Card Stock base, 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2".

Cut a Basic White C/S layer 4" x 5 1/4" and a 3 3/4" x 5" piece of Summer Splash 2024-2026 In-Color Designer Series Paper, attach these 2 layers together. Then attach a 3/4" x 4" piece of Basic White C/S across the center of these layers.

Wrap some Summer Splash Ribbon around the Basic White strip layer and tie into a knot on the far left side. Glue this layer to the card base.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 2 5/8" x 3 1/2 and using the Hearts & Hugs Dies, die cut the hearts at the top of this layer. (Keep the little heart die cuts for the card front). Attach this layer to a 2 7/8" x 3  3/4" piece of Pool Party C/S and attach to the card front using Dimensionals.

Stamp the Badgers onto Basic White C/S, color with Gray Granite Stampin' Blends then die cut and attach to the card front.

Die cut some Calypso Coral C/S flowers and some Summer Splash C/S leaves. Glue the flowers to the leaves then attach to the card front using Dimensionals. *Tip, cut up your Dimensionals to fit behind small pieces. Add a few Rhinestones to the center of the flowers.

Cut a thin strip of Basic White C/S and stamp the sentiment using Memento Black Ink. Attach to the card front.

Glue a few of the leftover Basic White C/S hearts to the card front and few inside the card.

Have fun with this card, you can design so many different varieties using this same layout.

Night Sky Folded Corner Card

 Night Sky Folded Corner Card

In some parts of the World there have been solar storms creating the most magical Northern Lights displays! How amazing!!


So I thought it was fitting to design a card with a night sky scene. 

This fun fold is called a "Folded Corner Card". 


Directions:

Cut a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Basic Beige Card Stock and score in half at 4 1/4".

Open the card and on the right edge on the right side measure down 3" and make a small pencil mark right on the edge. Place the open card into your trimmer and SCORE from the 3" mark to the 4 1/4" score line. This creates the corner fold.


Fold this flap down to the card front and burnish.

Cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic Grey C/S and a 3 3/4" x 5" piece of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. Attach these together, then attach to the card front. *Tip: I made a mark on these layers where the card base folds down and I trimmed off the corner. 

Glue down the corner fold.

Die cut a Basic White C/S and a Basic Black C/S Deckled circle using the Deckled Circles Dies. The Basic Black C/S circle is one size larger then the Basic White circle. 

Deckled Circles Dies #162286 $51.00 CAD

Using Blending Brushes, add some Misty Moonlight Ink to the Basic White C/S circle. Then add some Night Of Navy Ink on the outer part of the circle. 

Using Memento Black Ink and the Encircled In Nature Stamps, stamp some trees onto the circle.

Encircled In Nature Bundle #163629 $73.75 CAD

Die cut some Basic Black C/S trees from the Encircled In Nature Dies. Attach to the circle.

Using a White Gel pen, add lots of tiny dots all over the circle, careful to avoid adding dots to the trees.

Attach the 2 circles together using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. Add a few Dimensionals to the glued down flap and attach the circles.

Stamp a sentiment onto Basic White C/S using Night Of Navy Ink. Flag cut the ends and attach to some Basic Black C/S. Attach to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Add a 3 loop Linen Thread Bow using a Glue Dot.

I also stamped some trees and added some ink with the Blending Brushes and white dots to the inside of the card and the envelope. 



I have the complete list of supplies below that I used for todays card. Just click on the images and you will be directed to my store where you can purchase the items to make your own Folded Corner Card!

Happy Stamping and Creating!
