Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Fun Fold Easel

Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Fun Fold Easel

Comments 0 Comment

The card I am sharing today is a CASe of one Mary Deatherage created a few days ago.  I love fun folds and this is an easy double easel card.  You can see Mary’s video by clicking on her name.   She gives great instruction for creating. 

Card Cuts

  • Secret Sea cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″  score at 5-1/2″
  • Cherry Cobbler cardstock
    • double easel piece — 4″ x 10-1/4″ score at 5-1/4″ and 7-3/4″
    • mat for art piece easel front — use next to largest Branching Out Dies to create mat
  • Crumb Cake cardstock
    • art piece easel front — use 3rd largest Branching Out Dies to create mat
    • inside panel — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Elegant Pines Snowflakes Designer Series Paper
    • background panel — 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″
    • smaller panels at bottom of double easel — 2-3/8″ x 3-7/8″  Cut 2
  • Pecan Pie cardstock — cut one bough
  • Shaded Spruce cardstock — cut one bough
  • Gold Foil — die cut 6 pinecones

I used Secret Sea, Cherry Cobbler, and Crumb Cake cardstock along with Elegant Pine Snowflake Designer Series Paper.  Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Stamp Set and Dies were used.

Cut a piece of Secret Sea cardstock 4-1/4″ x 11″. Score at  5-1/2″.  This is the card base.  Cut a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock 4″ x 10-1/4″.  Score at 5-1/4″ and 7-3/4″.  This creates the double easel.

Cut all the remaining pieces of cardstock and designer series paper according to the card cuts given above. Adhere the Elegant Pine Snowflake Designer Series Paper to the Cherry Cobbler cardstock double easel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  

 

Die cut the pine boughs and pine cones. Die cut the Cherry Cobbler mat and the Crumb Cake art piece using the 2nd and 3rd dies from Branching Out Dies.  Emboss the Crumb Cake cardstock piece using Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.  Adhere the embossed piece to the Cherry Cobbler piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Adhere the pine boughs and pines cones to the Crumb Cake piece.

From the Black & White & Gold Baker’s Twine, tie a black bow.  Adhere the bow to the top of the pine boughs using a Glue Dot.  Stamp a greeting using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Bloomin’ Phrases Stamp Set.  Fussy cut and pop on the art piece using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Crumb Cake stamp the branch in Pecan Pie ink,  stamp the pine boughs in Shaded Spruce ink and stamp the pine cones in Pecan Pie ink.  Stamp sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Stamp Set in Pecan Pie ink. Adhere to the Secret Sea card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stamp pine boughs on the envelope front and on the envelope flap using stamps from Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Stamp Set.

Stampin’ Up! Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin

Stampin’ Up! Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin

Comments 0 Comment

I hope everyone has had a blessed day.  It is a beautiful Fall day here in GA.  We went for a walk earlier, and the breeze was so cool in the warm sunshine.  I know everyone who doesn’t have to work the weekend is looking forward to a little rest and doing fun things with family and friends.

My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin elements and Stampin’ Up! Branching Out Stamp Set.  I added a few things, making it an alternative card.

This was an easy card to create.  I started with a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock.  I scored at 4-1/4″, folded the card, and gave it a good burnish with a bone folder.  A piece of Early Espresso cardstock was adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A piece of Gathering Together Designer Series Paper was added to the Early Espresso piece, leaving a 1/8″ border. 

Leaves were arranged on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Branching Out stamp set is stamped in Early Espresso ink on one of the circle labels included in the Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin. Two short pieces of ribbon from the Paper Pumpkin Kit are added to the greeting.  On the greeting label, stamp pumpkins using a stamp from the Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin.  Color the pumpkins using Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling Stampin’ Blends.  Three 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls  are popped on the card front.

On a piece of 4″ x 5-14″ Basic White cardstock, a sentiment from Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin is stamped in Cajun Craze ink.  A strip of Gather Together Designer Series Paper is adhered to the bottom of the panel.  The panel is then dipped in Cajun Craze ink and adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. 

An envelope from the Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin is used.

I am happy you stopped by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts and cards, and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my creations with you each day. I hope and wish you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Have a blessed day!

Comments 2 comments

I hope everyone is having a beautiful Fall day/evening like we are here in Georgia.  Having a heart attack watching Georgia- Alabama.  Our granddaughter graduated from Alabama, even though she is a Georgia peach, and I’ve always told her, it can be Roll Tide unless they are playing Georgia, then it is GO DAWGS!

Here I am again using Stampin’ Up! Amber Autumn Stamp Set and Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper.  Since there is such a short time to use this stamp set and designer series paper, I want to get the best use of it while I can.

Emboss the Basic Beige 2-7/8″ x 2-7/8″ piece using Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder.  Stamp the pumpkin and leaves with acorn images from Stampin’ Up! Amber Autumn Stamp Set in Crumb Cake ink.  Color the images using Darling Duckling, Daffodile Delight, Lost Lagoon, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.  Die-cut the images using dies from Amber Autumn Dies.  Adhere the 2-7/8″ x 2-7/8″ embossed piece to the 3″ x 3″ Early Espresso piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or your preferred adhesive.  Arrange the pumpkin and leaves the way you prefer on the Basic Beige embossed piece, then adhere using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Lay aside until the remainder of the cards is assembled.

Adhere the 1-7/8″ x 2-3/8″ Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper to the  2″ x 2-5/8″ Early Espresso cardstock pieces using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or the adhesive of choice.  Adhere these pieces to the Crumb Cake card base as you see in the photo above. 

Adhere the 1-7/8″ x  5-1/4″ Basic Beige cardstock and the 1-7/8″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper to the 1-7/8″ x 5-3/8″ piece of Early Espresso cardstock.  Stamp the sentiment in Early Espresso ink on a piece of Basic Beige cardstock.  Trim and cut about as the photo above shows.  Fussy cut pumpkins from a piece of Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper and adhere to the bottom of the Basic Beige panel.

Adhere all the pieces to the Crumb Cake card base.  Stamp in Early Espresso ink a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Amber Autumn Stamp Set on a piece of Basic Beige cardstock.  Fussy cut the greeting, adhering with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the upper right panel of the card base.

Adhere the art piece to the left side of the Z-fold, and put glue on the left side of the art piece only.

Fussy cut a piece of Amber Autumn Designer Series Paper to fit the flap of a Very Vanilla envelope.  Adhere using Multipurpose Glue.

  • Ready to Join our team?  Click HERE  for more information. One of the perks of being a demonstrator is to pre-order before a new catalog launches, and the Online Exclusives we get to order before they are released to customers.  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.

  Being a part of the Stampin’ Up! Community is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.  Are you new to papercrafting and cardmaking and don’t know where to start, but would like to join to save?  As I said earlier in this post, I’m here to assist you in any way I can.  Ask me!
