Stampin with Shirley G

I am sharing a little sneak peek of one of the stamp sets in the new Jan.-April 2024 Mini catalog.  I love this stamp set the minutes I saw it in the catalog.  I was so happy when it arrived.  I used Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper, Pecan Pie card stock, with a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Garden Meadow Stamp Set. The inside sentiment is from the December 2023 Paper Pumpkin and Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Stamp Set.

I am entering the Creative Creases Challenge for this card.

As this is not your normal fold card, you will start with a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Pecan Pie card stock for the card base.  Next you will need a piece of Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper cut 5-1/4″ x 8.  Score this piece at 2″ and 4″, fold and burnish well.  Adhere this piece to the Pecan Pie card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Cut a piece of Pecan Pie card stock, 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ embossing using Exposed Brick 3 D Embossing Folder.  Adhere this piece to the 2″ side of the card front.  Only put glue on a portion of the card that covers the 2″ section.  If you put glue on the entire piece, you will glue your card closed.  Fussy cut from one of the panel of Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper the arrangement you see on the card front.  Color using Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake and Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I used the Balmy Blue to lightly at tint to the two flowers.  I used the Bronze Stampin’ Blends Maker to go around the circle behind the flowers to give a bit of distinction between the embossed piece and the circle behind the flowers as they are the same color.  After coloring the flower piece is adhered to the embossed piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Three Adhesive Backed Cork Rounds are popped around the card front.  A piece of Gold Faux Leather Trim is adhered under the greeting from Stampin’ Up! Garden Meadow Stamp Set.  The greeting is stamped in Memento Black Ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, fussy cut and popped over the Gold Faux Leather Trim.

A piece of Pecan Pie card stock is cut the same size as the one on the card front. It is adhered to the inside of the card.  I find the best way to make sure the card on the inside is not seen when the card is closed is to position the piece over the one on the front, put the adhesive over it and then close the card back, this will make sure the card is in the right position not to be seen when the card is closed.  A sentiment from the December 2023 Paper Pumpkin and Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a 2-7/8″ x 3-7/8″ Basic White card stock piece, then adhered to the Pecan Pie mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of the Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper a different pattern for the envelope flap.  Cut the piece for the envelope 2-1/4″ x 6″, adhere using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

One of the perks of being a demonstrator is that you get to pre-order before a new catalog  launches so you are able to show your customers what they can look forward to having when the new catalog comes out.  You will also be getting at least a 20% discount on purchases. If you love card making as a hobby, you can still be a demonstrator and get that discount to help get more card making items,  or you can be like I was and buy Stampin’ Up! products for 10 years before I became wise enough to become a demonstrator to get the discount.  When I think of all the stamping products that 20% would have brought over those 10 years, I cringe.
