Gorgeously Made Two-Tone Card

Welcome to the Stampers Dozen monthly blog hop. We are so glad you’re here! This month, we feature cards and projects that use only TWO colors! (That was hard for me!)

Be sure to visit each participating stamper to gain inspiration for your paper crafting. Look for a list of blogs at the end of this post. We like to hear your comments, too!

Gorgeously Made Two-Tone Card

Gorgeously Made Card Sample

Like I mentioned above, limiting my self to just two colors was challenging. In the end, I chose Pretty Peacock and Gray Granite. I also used the Gorgeously Made stamp set and coordinating Gorgeously Made Dies. Purchase them as a bundle and save 10 percent. Find them on page 103 of Stampin’ Up!’s Annual Catalog. 

Stampin' Up! Gorgeously Made

Here are some details about the card:

  • Gray Granite card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4
  • Panel: Gray Granite card stock layer measuring 5 1/4 x 4
  • Stamp image three times on Gray Granite panel. I inked the stamp with Pretty Peacock and then “stamped off” on my grid paper twice before applying to the panel — creating a subtle background.
  • Embossed this stamped panel with one of the designs from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders. Find these online here
  • Die cut the image shown with the Pretty Peacock sheet from the Soft Shimmer 12 x 12 Paper Combo Pack.
  • Stamped the thank you sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink on Gray Granite card stock and die cut with label from dies.
  • Die cut the “notebook edge” die with the Pretty Peacock design from the Glorious Gingham 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.
  • Added Linen Thread and gems from the Tinsel Gems Four-Pack.

I also had to try this card with Berry Burst and Crumb Cake. Which is your favorite?

Envelope Fun Fold Card

Envelope Fun Fold Card

With the transition from Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog to the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, we see some paper crafting products retiring, some products carrying over into the new catalog, and brand-new goodies introduced.

Some of the retiring products are offered at up to 60 percent off. Click here to browse the store and shop for these discounted items.

In today’s post, I play with a fun fold — the Envelope Fold — with a variety of things: retiring, carry over, and new. My team member, Theresa Huffman, introduced our team (Kim’s Paper Krafters) to the fold during one of our virtual team meetings for our mystery stamping project.

Sun Prints Envelope Fun Fold

The card featured at the top uses the retiring Sun Prints 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. (You need one piece that measures 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches scored on the diagonal.) Be sure to watch the video below for step-by-step instructions for creating the Envelope Fun Fold handmade card.  All other items will carry over into the brand-new catalog, including:

  • Basic White card stock measuring 8 x  51/4, scored at 4
  • One half of the white embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder
  • Night of Navy card stock measuring 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
  • Basic White circle die cut with Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Thank You sentiment from Good Feelings Stamp Set, stamped in Night of Navy
  • Night of Navy 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon (18 inches)
  • Rhinestone Basic Jewels colored with Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends

The above photo shows what the card looks like inside.

Petal Park Fun Fold

I created the card above during the mystery stamping. It uses the retiring Petal Park 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set. The Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder carries over into the new catalog.

Stampin' Up! Circle Celebrations

Now it gets exciting. The card above uses some brand-new products available beginning May 2 in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, including: Fresh as a Daisy 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, Circle Celebrations Bundle, and the new In Colors of Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat. 

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Balloons

And, this last card is created with the brand-new Beautiful Balloons Bundle and the Bright & Beautiful 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

Petal Park Fun Fold

Hello, and welcome to the Stampers’ Dozen monthly blog hop. This month, we’re sharing handmade paper crafting projects created with bundles from Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. Be sure to visit all of the stamping blogs and be inspired. This spring catalog offers so many great products, and you’ll see some of them featured throughout the hop created by talented stampers.

Today, I use the Petal Park Bundle (Petal Park stamp set and coordinating Petal Park Builder Punch) to create a fun fold thank-you card.

Petal Park Fun Fold

Petal Park Fun Fold

From the front, this card looks like a “regular” card. But it’s really a Z fold. Look below to see how it opens.

Stampin' Up! Petal Park Bundle

Here are a few details and measurements.

  • Night of Navy base measures 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
  • Regency Park Designer Series Paper measures 5 1/4″ x 4″
  • Z fold portion measures 9 3/4″ x 4 1/4″. Score at 3 1/4″ and 6 1/2″
  • Basic White panels measure 4″ x 3″
  • Extra Regency Park Designer Series Paper measures 4″ x 3″

In addition, I used the thank you sentiment from the Beautifully Happy Stamp Set (earn this set free with a $100 purchase during Stampin’ Up!’s SaleABration promotion) and Mango Melody colored gems from the Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots.

The Petal Park stamp set features the two-step stamping technique. This means it takes two stamps to create the images. But the photopolymer design (see-through stamps) make it easy to line up the images. Be sure to watch the video below to get step-by-step instructions to see how this card comes together. Use a Stampin’ Pierce Mat to ensure you get a nice stamped image.
