Beautiful Gallery Marina Accordion Fold Card

No Comments

This is a great masculine card for any male in your life and is so lovely.  It is fairly quick and easy since the paper does the work, just takes a little time cutting the paper to line up. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Secret Sea card stock (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Beautiful Garden designer series paper (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Label die
  • Happiest of Birthdays stamp set (retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Scoring board or scoring blade for trimmer
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

Take your Secret Sea card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 11” and score at 3 ¼”, 5 1/8”, 8” and 9 ½”.  From the 3 ¼” first score, fold the next section in and then accordion fold from there with the last piece forming your card front. 

From the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper find the piece of brown paint and then two of the marina painting.  From the brown paint piece cut a piece to 1 3/8” x 5 3/8” and a second to 1 ¾” x 5 3/8”.  Adhere the 1 3/8” wide piece to the second panel and the 1 ¾” piece to the 4th panel. 

Cutting the marina papers is where it takes a bit of paying attention to get it to all line up to form the same picture when the card is closed.  Trim both pieces of the Marina paper together to 5 3/8” in height so that the picture is the same exact height for both.  Start by cutting the piece for the back, I cut a bit off the right side so it had the single boat starting at the right which then when folded will have all the boats showing, cut to 3 1/8” x 5 3/8”.  Adhere to the back portion of your card.  Fold in the middle and take the second piece of marina paper and see where the boats align to the right and trim to there.  Then cut in from the right to 2 ¾” x 5 3/8”.  Now fold in the front panel and take the leftover piece from the first piece of marina paper and again figure out where the boats need to align and trim the right and then cut to 1 3/8” 5 3/8”.  Andere to the front which gives you your picture when folded and a nice scenic view when open. 

From the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set find the “it’s your day enjoy it!” greeting and stamp onto some Basic Beige in Secret Sea ink.  Take your label die and cut out your greeting.  Adhere only a bit of the label to the front panel making your label centered when your card is closed. 

Cut a piece of Basic Beige to 3” x 5 ¼” for the back of your card.  Take the “wishing you the happiest of birthdays” greeting stamp and your Secret Sea ink and stamp in the upper center.  Adhere your piece of Basic Beige to the back of the back panel of your card. 

There is a great guy birthday card for when you need it.

Fine Art Floral Golden Garden Thank You Card

No Comments

This elegant and easy to make card is a great thank you card for anyone to show your gratitude.  It is made with the Fine Art Floral and Golden Garden designer series papers from Stampin’ Up. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Calypso Coral card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Fine Art Floral designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)

  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Foam Adhesive Strips or pop dots

With the Calypso Coral cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  With the white card stock take the 3 ¾” x 5 ¼” die and the 3 3/8” x 4 ¾” and align both and cut a rectangle frame.  Use the larger die to cut another piece of white for the inside. 

With the Fine Art Floral designer series paper find the piece with the light blue brush stroked background that multi-colored flowers.  Then from the Golden Garden transparency sheets find the one that matches.  Align the papers so the gold is in place over the appropriate area and cut them together to 3 ¾” x 5 ¼” and then cut another section to 1 1/2” x 5”. 

With the large piece of floral designer series paper and the Calypso Coral ink, stamp the “thank you” greeting from the Art Gallery stamp set.  Adhere the frame to the front of the Golden Garden piece.  Use Foam Adhesive strips or cut pop dots in half and align to the outside and adhere to the piece of the floral designer series paper (be careful in your placement as you can’t easily get them back off as the film will peel off, you can guess how I know).  Now adhere this to the front of the Calypso Coral card base.

For the inside of your card, take your white piece of card stock and adhere the floral paper to the inside of the stitches to the left side and then adhere the Golden Garden on top.  With the Calypso Coral ink and the “Thank you for making a difference in my life” greeting from the On the Dock stamp set and stamp to the right upper portion.  Adhere to the inside of your card.

Take the Cajan Craze piece cut to 4 1/8” x 5 ¼” and the Basic Beige piece that is 4” x 5” and stack them together and alight evenly at the bottom edge.  Take your border die of choice and angle across both pieces toward the bottom to your liking and cut, forming the angled front pieces. 

Take a spare piece of Basic Beige and the Jet Black Momento ink and stamp the fox from The Wilderness Awaits stamp set.  Use your Cajan Craze Light Blender Pen to color the fox leaving a bit uncolored around the eyes and nose.  With the Wild Wheat Light Blender Pen color the grass.  Then use your medium size die to cut out the fox.  Take a small whole punch and cut two holes on each side about ½” apart.  Cut two pieces of the twine and string through the wholes on each side.  Adhere the plaid paper to the center of the Cajan Craze piece.  Add pop dots to the back of the fox piece and adhere toward the top and centered and wrap the twine around the edges.  Then adhere to the front top portion of your Basic Beige card base. 

On a spare piece of Basic Beige take the “Happy Birthday” greeting from the By The Dock stamp sent and stamp with Cajan Craze ink.  Then use the small die to cut out and use pop dots to adhere to the lower Basic Beige portion of your card. 

For the inside of your card take the Basic Beige piece and adhere to the piece of Cajan Craze and then adhere the plaid strip across the bottom.  Use your Cajan Craze ink and a birthday greeting and stamp, I use a “Wishing you the very best of birthdays” stamp.  Adhere to the inside of the card.

Then on the two lower sections, adhere the two Night of Navy pieces.  Adhere the pink piece with your greeting to the center section and then the pink floral piece to the bottom section.  Now take the small label and with pop dots adhere to the front of the rose lower section, making sure it is covered when the top flap is closed.  To finish adhere a few embellishment dots from the Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots to the rose paper on the top flap. 

I can’t wait to give this card to one of my friends as it turned out so nice with beautiful colors.
