Stampin’ Up! One Horse Sleigh

August 3, 2023 admin

The card I am sharing today is one of Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives. It is a Christmas stamp set called Horse & Sleigh and Dies. I also use One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper.

I am entering the Creative Creases Challenge. It is always a fun fold challenge.

I started with a piece of 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ Mossy Meadow card stock for the base. I scored at 4-1/4″. I cut another piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock 3″ x 5-1/2″ scoring at 1″ and 2″. I folded this piece burnishing well. This creates the step. Adhered this piece to the bottom of the Mossy Meadow card base using Tear & Tape. This is your step. You can see in the photo below how it looks adhered to the bottom of the card. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Perched in A Tree stamp set is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink in the middle of the card front at the top of the panel.

You can see how the card looks with the step attached.

I cut a 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ piece of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper adhering to the card front. I cut 2 piece of the Designer Series Paper 7/8″ x 5-3/8″ adhering to the steps using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped the horse & carriage from Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Memento Black in on a piece of Basic White card stock. I die cut the image using a die from Horse & Sleigh Dies. I colored the piece using Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Real Red, Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blend Markers.

The inside sentiment is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper and then adhered to the inside of the card base.

Basic White envelope gets a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry with Charming Sentiments Perched In A Tree

December 29, 2022 custom

I am entering the Can You Handle The Pressure? Challenge with the Option of Snow.

I am also entering the Global Design Project. I turned my card portrait instead of landscape.

Also, I am entering Tuesday Morning Sketches Annual Anything Goes Challenge.

I will say I CASed Karen Ksenzakovic’s card from September 29. It must have stuck in my memory for I was sure surprised yesterday when I opened her Christmas card and it was almost the same card. Karen, I must have loved it so that I kept it stored away, thanks. Wanting to give her credit, I looked and looked through her blog thinking, I could find it and it finally dawned on me to put it in search on her blog. Karen’s is the one on the right.

I started with a piece of Soft Succulent card stock, embossing a piece of the same using one of the embossing folders from Wintry 3D Embossing Folders. I also embossed a piece of Vellum using the same embossing folder. I cropped a snowflake from the Frosted Flurry Dies from a scrap of Basic White card stock.

I stamped the bird from Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree stamp set in Memento Black ink and colored it using Crumb Cake, Soft Succulent, So Saffron, and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. The branch is colored using a Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Marker. I cropped leaves from Copper Foil and from Gold Foil from the Gold & Rose 6′ x 6″ Metallic Speciality Paper. A snowflake is cropped using a die from the Frosted Flurry Dies. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry stamp set is stamped on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. All the layers and elements are arranged and adhered to the card base using either Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Stampin’ Dimensionals. Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots are popped around the card front.

On a panel of Basic White card stock, I stamped snowflakes from Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry stamp set in Soft Succulent ink in corners of the panel. I stamped sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments stamp set in Soft Succulent ink also, the panel is then adhered to the card base. Two Brushed Metallic Adhesive Back Dots are popped in the center of the snowflakes.

I suppose you can call this a Fun Fold as it has a bridge for having it stand up easier. Or maybe it can be called a card with an inside bridge. To create the bridge cut a piece of Soft Succulent card stock 3-1/4″ x 4″, score 3/8″ on each 4″ side then score at 1-5/8″, this will be the middle of the card. I adhered the 3/8″ side to the bottom of the card using Tear & Tape.

A Basic White medium envelopes get a panel of Texture Chic Designer Series Paper added to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree Happy Birthday

September 13, 2022 custom

The card I am sharing today is a fun fold called a Double Easel Fold. It is simple to create allowing you to create a fabulous card.

I am entering the Creative Creases Challenge as it is always a fun fold challenge.

I am entering Sunday Stamps Challenge. Their theme for this challenge is a color theme.

I am also entering the Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge. I am choosing the left side down and the middle across. I believe my tree qualifies as wood.

My card base is Early Espresso card stock, the next layer is Crumb Cake card stock. I centered the Crumb Cake card stock layer over the Early Espresso card stock and adhered with Washi Tape to keep the layers together. I used the tree die from Stampin’ Up! Aspen Tree Dies, centering it on the Crumb Cake layer. I then ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine several times as I was cutting through two layers of card stock.

After cutting, I adhered the Early Espresso and Crumb Cake card stock together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The robin is stamped using Stazon ink on a piece of Basic White card stock. It is colored using Watercolor pencils in Pumpkin Pie and Early Espresso. I colored a piece of Basic White card stock using a Blending Brush and Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, and Cajun Craze inks. I then cropped and embossed the leaves. A piece of Basic White is matted on a piece of Early Espresso card stock, stamped with dots flourish from Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Daydream stamp set then adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the front of the card. The leaves and robin are popped on the piece using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A Crumb Cake bow is made using twine from Baker’s Twine Essential Pack. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Graceful Tiles stamp set is stamped on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from the Stylish Shape Dies. It is popped across the Aspen trees using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A piece of Early Espresso card stock is adhered to the back of the trees where the greeting is so that the Stampin’ Dimensionals will not stick to the inside of the card.

A panel of Designer Series Paper is cut from Rings of Love Designer Series Paper, colored using a Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Marker, and adhered to the inside panel. By coloring it gives the appearance of a grove of trees against the sky.

A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Graceful Tiles stamp set is stamped in Early Espresso ink on a panel of Basic White card stock. The panel is then adhered to the back of the card. It leaves ample room to write a note and sign your name.

This is a side view of the card showing how it folds.

A panel of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper is adhered to a Basic White Medium Envelope flap.
