Tutorial: Thank You Butterfly Card

Today I wanted to introduce you to the Amazing Silhouettes Stamp Set.  I wasn't sure at first whether I was going to like this set but I quickly changed my mind.  The color combinations you can put together for this card are endless!   For my card I used the color scheme of Highland Heather and Pool Party.

1. This card uses Stampin’ Up! Note Cards & Envelopes — the note card is 5” x 3-1/2.

2. Cut out a 3-1/4” x 4-3/4” piece of Highland Heather cardstock and adhere to the front of the card.

3. With sponge daubers, ink up thee butterfly stamp from the Amazing Silhouettes Stamp Set with Highland Heather and Pool Party Ink and stamp a 3” x 4-1/4” piece of Basic White cardstock.

4. Stamp the bottom of the piece with the “Thank You” from the Heal Your Heart (Sale-a-bration 2021) in Highland Heather Ink.  Adhere the stamped piece to the front of the card.

5. Cut a 4” piece of White Frayed Ribbon and tie it with a piece of White Baker’s Twine. Adhere it to the bottom of the card using Tear & Tape Adhesive.

6. Add a gold butterfly to the front of the card from the Brushed Brass Butterflies Embellishments.

Last Chance Products Going Fast!

I wanted to give everyone a heads up that the current 2021-22 Annual Catalog will be retiring soon.  There are many items that are retiring so you may want to look over your wish list and make sure you have everything on it. 

I wanted to also let you know that shipping cost will be increasing, Stampin' Up! has worked over the years to manage steadily increasing costs, but with the sudden emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, and the trickle down effect it had on the economy and supply chain, Stampin' Up! is increasing not only shipping cost, but many items that will be in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog.  That's why this is the best week to stock up on your stamping supplies.

Starting 1 April 2022, standard shipping and handling rates will permanently increase in all markets. The new pricing structure will increase shipping charges as follows:  In the United States, standard shipping and handling charges will change from $6.95 USD or 10% (whichever is greater) to $7.95 USD or 11% (whichever is greater).

 

So, take another quick look at the catalog and place your order by Thursday to get ahead of the increased pricing.

Tutorial: Time to Relax Card

 

Today's card features the new In The Moment Stamp Set from the latest Mini Catalog.  If you love to color, this is a fun stamp set for you!  This stamp set imagery includes three women relaxing by looking at the landscape with a lovely glass of wine or indulging in a hobby like reading with their furry friend. The set includes three self-care themed greetings to mix and match with the imagery. The line-art images can be colored using your favorite coloring techniques. 

 

Instructions

1. Cut a piece of 8-1/2” x 5-1/2” Thick Basic White cardstock and score at 4-1/4”. This will be your card base.

2. Cut out a 4” x 5-1/4” piece of Smokey Slate cardstock and adhere to the front of the card.

3. Cut out a 3-3/4” x 5” piece of Basic White cardstock and stamp with image of the girl by the window from the In The Moment Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink.  Color with Stampin’ Blends.

4. Carefully tear away the top of the stamped piece of cardstock. Adhere a 3-3/4” x 3” piece of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper behind the area you have torn off.  This will make it look like a brick wall is behind the stamped image. 

5. Adhere a Denim 3/8” Ribbon to the left side of stamped piece. Tie a piece of Linen Thread in a bow over the ribbon.  Adhere stamped cardstock to the front of the card. 

6. Stamp a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock with the “Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is Relax” and punch out with the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch and adhere to the front of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Tutorial: Easter Bunny Fun Fold Card

 

Today I wanted to show you a cute fun fold Easter card.  The card uses the Easter Friends Stamp Set.  I also used the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper which was free during Sale-a-bration, but any designer paper would work well and is a great way to use up scraps.

 Instructions: 

1. Cut a piece of 8-1/2” x 5-1/2” Evening Evergreen cardstock and score –2-1/8” and 4-1/4”.   Fold back and forth and burnish score lines with a Bone Folder.  This will be your card base.

2. Cut out two different designs from the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration Brochure) that measure 5-1/4” x 1-15/16” and adhere to the small flaps.

3. Cut a 4” x 2-1/2” piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and stamp the bunny from the Easter Friends Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink.  With a Blender Pen, gently go over dark edges of the bunny pulling out some of the color.

4. Layer the stamped piece over a 4-1/4” x 2-3/4” piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock. Adhere this piece to the front flap being careful where you place the adhesive.

5. Cut a 4” x 5-1/4” piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and stamp “Happy Easter” with the stamp from the Easter Friends Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. Adhere to the inside of the card.

Tutorial: Easter Pinwheel Card

Today I wanted to show you a fun pinwheel card which uses the Easter Friends Stamp Set.  It looks a lot more complicated than it really is.  It's all about the scoring and folding, and is a great way to use up scrap designer paper while packing a huge WOW!

2. At this time stamp the large flap with sentiment “Sending warm and happy wishes this spring” with the stamp from the Easter Friends Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink.

3. Adhere small flap to large panel using Multipurpose Glue to form a square in the center.

4. Cut 3 pieces of Very Vanilla cardstock measuring 4-1/4” x 2-2/4” and on two of the pieces layer a piece of 4” x 2-1/2” Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration Brochure).

5. On the 3rd piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, stamp the image of the large chick from the Easter Friends Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. Color with Stampin’ Blends.

6. Cut out 2 small circles. Stamp one of the circles with the little chick from the Easter Friends Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink.  Color with Stampin’ Blends.  Adhere to one of the Designer Paper Flaps.

7. Stamp the remaining circle with “My Friend”. Add a Linen Thread bow to the top of the circle and an embellishment at the bottom.

8. Add decorated flaps to the card base.
