Stampin with Shirley G

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Stamp Set, Meadow Dies, Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder, and numerous other little elements.

My challenge for today is with Use Your Stuff Challenge.  The theme is Spring/Easter.

My card is a fun fold for today and is CASed from Mary Deatherage’s video yesterday.  I loved the way the fun fold was done, so easy.  Thank you, Mary.  I’m sure the design of the card front is a CAS of one I saw on Pinterest or a video I watched.  I watch so many videos late, late nights, that it’s hard to remember where they belong.  I started with a Night of Navy card stock base.

On a panel of Basic White card stock, I stamped in Balmy Blue ink stamping off once, the dot flourish using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream stamp set. I, also, stamped the words from the Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow stamp set in Balmy Blue ink across the top of the panel.  I then embossed the panel using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder.  I adhered this to a mat of Basic White card stock also.

These are the flowers and stem you need to crop using the Meadow Dies and the color of each card stock or ink color used.  Crop two of the stems that look like leaves of a plant. Crop 3 of the large flowers from Basic White card stock, using  Blending Brushes, color the flower with Night of Navy ink, and the stems of the flower using Old Olive ink. 

Crop the butterfly using a die from the Brilliant Wings Dies.  Color half of the butterfly using Night of Navy ink and the other half using Night of Navy ink.  I colored a doily, I am sure long retired, using Night of Navy ink and a Blending Brush.  The centers of the flowers are cropped from a scrap of Night of Navy card stock.

The greeting is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, fussy cut, and popped on the card front.  Arrange the flowers and leaves over and under the doily, adhere using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White card stock, color around the edges making it look like a shadow.  Stamp the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink on the upper portion of the panel. On the lower portion, adhere a flower and a butterfly.  Add two Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels and the sentiment panel is finished.  Adhere the panel to the back of the card base.  It goes on the back as this is a fun fold and the card can not be opened as it usually is opened.

Cut a 3-1/4″ x 4″ panel of Night of Navy card stock. Score on the short side at 3/8″ on both sides of the short end. Score at 1-3/8″ which will be between the two 3/8″ scorelines.  Fold and score each of the 3/8″ ends. Fold & score the 1-5/8″ line making it a mountain fold.  Apply Tear & Tape to each 3/8″ score. Remove the covering from one of the sides with Tear & Tape and adhere as close as possible to the inside edge of the card base at the bottom.  Remove the other covering on the other side and close the card carefully, adhering this side to the card.  See diagram as to where the tent is.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Neutral 6″ x 6″  DSP applied to the envelope flap.

If you would like to create this card all the products used are in the post instead of at the end of the post as they usually are.

Thank you for stopping by today.
