Stampin’ Up! Zoo Crew — Happy Birthday

Stampin’ Up! Zoo Crew — Happy Birthday

I was searching Pinterest for a cute card for a 2 year old great-grandson when I happened upon this cute card that Patty Bennett created.  She So this is the card I am sharing today created using Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.  The greeting and sentiment are from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird stamp set.

My card base is Parakeet Party card stock.  It is a one piece base as Patty Bennett’s 2-4-6-8 Fun Fold sit atop the base.  The fun fold is a 5-1/4″ x 12″ piece of the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.  It is scored at 2″ 4″ 6″ and 8″.  I stamped music notes in Memento Black ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set.

The 2″ panels are adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to create the two short folds.  You can exact instructions in Patty’s video.  I die cut 4 circle from Parakeet Party card stock using Layering Circle Dies.  I die cut two Basic White circle using a die from the same dies.  I die cut three of the little animals from Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper using one of the dies. These were adhered to the Parakeet Party card stock circles using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped a greeting and sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set  and adhered the circle to the Parakeet Party circle.  You can see in the photo above how I adhered the circles to the card base.  I just realized I forgot to add any bling.

A piece of Basic White card stock is added to the center of the inside for signing the card.

A piece of the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper is adhered to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird — A Little Bird…

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird — A Little Bird…

Welcome, I am so happy you are here to see the card i am sharing with you today.  I used Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set, along with Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder.

I am entering the Just Add Ink Challenge — their theme for this challenge is Just Add Music.

I started by cutting my card base from Orchid Oasis card stock. Next, I embossed a piece of Basic White card stock using Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder.

I die cut a circle from Basic White card stock using a die from Stylish Shapes Dies. This becomes the art piece.  The Orchid Oasis scalloped mat behind the  Basic White circle is die cut from an old die set I have had for many years.  I stamped leaves in Garden Green ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Sweet As A Song stamp set.  I stamped the branch in Pecan ink.  I stamped the bird in Orchid Oasis and punched using the Songbird Builder Punch.  I stamped the music notes in Misty Moonlight ink. The bird is popped on the branch after all the stamping.  It is then adhered to the Orchid Oasis mat and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set is stamped in Real Red ink on a piece of Basic White card stock.  It is then die cut using die from Stylish  Shapes Dies.  I had to do a little modification with the die but it worked. Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewel are popped around the card front.

A sentiment is stamped in Real Red and Orchid Oasis ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  A branch is stamped in Pecan ink on the bottom of the panel.  Garden Green leaves are added to the branch. Two tiny flowers from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds are stamped in Real Red ink, fussy cut, and adhered to the center of the leaves using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Orchid Oasis card stock embossed using the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder  and applied to the envelope flap using  Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! He’s The Man — Awesome

Stampin’ Up! He’s The Man — Awesome

The card I am sharing today is created using multiple stamp sets, Stampin’ Up! By My Side stamp set, Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets stamp set, Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird stamp set, and This Birthday Piggy stamp set along with He’s The Man Designer Series Paper.  This is an easy, easy card and a great way to use up that Designer Series Paper that will soon retire.  Even though this is an easy simple card it has taken the day to get it finished, too many distractions. In fact, I believe I started it yesterday.  I think I need a time management person.😊

I am entering Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge.  

My card base is Sahara Sand card stock.  I then cut a piece of He’s the Man Designer Series Paper 4″ x 11″

I scored the piece at 1″, 4″, and 8″.  The 1″ score line is folded as a valley fold as it fold back onto the 4″ fold which is a mountain fold, the last fold will be a valley fold also.  I used one of the stickers from the He’s The Man Designer Series Paper to pop on the front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  On the next panel, I stamped a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from Stylish Shapes Dies. The next panel get a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! By My Side stamp set stamped in Cajun Craze ink and cropped using a circle die from Stylish Shapes Dies.  I popped an arrow from the sticker set in He’s The Man Designer Series Paper so the person receiving would know there is more.

Follow the arrow and you will find this, the inside of the card.  I used a piece of Dandy Design Designer Series Paper, no longer available as a mat for the inside sentiments.  The top sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Greatest  Journey stamp set and is stamped in Sahara Sand ink on a piece of Basic White card stock, fussy cut and adhered to the top portion of the panel,  the middle one is from He’s The Man Designer Series Paper, and the last one at the bottom is from Stampin’ Up! This Birthday Piggy stamp set.

I adhered a panel of He’s The Man Designer Series Paper to the flap of a Basic White Medium Envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird with Happy Forest Friends

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird with Happy Forest Friends

The card I am sharing today is a fun fold.  I always love creating fun folds.  I used Stampin’ Up! Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds Stamp set along with  Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set for the greeting.

I am entering the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge.  Their theme for this challenge is Birthdays.

I am also entering the Creative Creases Challenge as my card is a fun fold.

Cut a panel of Soft Suede card stock 3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ as a mat for the plaid piece of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. Adhere together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then adhere to the left front panel. Be sure to put the adhesive inside the 2″ area so as not to get glue on the other portion and glue it to your inside panel.

Cut a panel of Calypso Coral card stock 4-3/4″ x 7″ scoring at 3-1/2″.  Adhere this panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the inside of the card base.  See the picture above for placement.  Cut a panel of Basic White card stock  3-3/8″ x 4-5/8″ as your sentiment panel.  Stamp sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set in Calypso Coral ink onto the Basic White panel.  Fussy cut the bear, tree, and birds and adhere them to the panel.  Add two Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the panel.

The front of the small Calypso Coral card portion gets a panel adhered using Designer Series Paper from Happy Forest Friends cut 3″ x4″.  It is matted on a panel of Soft Suede card stock cut 3-1/8″ x 4-1/8″.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles is stamped in Calypso Coral ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, fussy cut, and matted on a scrap of Soft Suede card stock.  It is popped on the art panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots are popped around the card front.
