Charming Day – Page 2

This is my take on a twist card as I changed it to my own version as the regular twist cards I’ve seen don’t make a normal size card, so this version does and it turned out pretty cool. It was the perfect design for this paper from the Floral Charm designer series paper from Stampin’ Up.

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

Timid Tiger card stock (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
White card stock
Floral Charm designer series paper (2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Charming Day stamp set
Birthday greeting for card inside
Layered label dies
Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots
Scoring board or paper trimmer scoring blade
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice
Pop Dots

With your Timid Tiger card stock cut a card base to 4 ¾” x 5 ½” and score at ¼” and 4 ½” and fold both scores up. Then cut two pieces to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and score at a diagonal and fold and then trim off the overhanging area on the long edge. Now adhere each to the ¼” scored edges of your card base making sure they align in the middle.

From the Mossy Meadow card stock cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and then cut diagonally in the direction to match your card. Adhere under the front flap so shows in the lower left corner and the upper right corner.

Find the Floral Charm designer series paper and grab the piece with the orange and pink flowers and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and cut in half to match your diagonal on your card. You will need to trim to match your angles, then adhere. Cut another piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and cut on the diagonal for the inside of the card. Cut on a diagonal and adhere to the inside angles of your card.

With your white card stock cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” for the inside of your card. Choose a layered label die with two dies and cut the smaller layer out of the white card stock and the larger layer out of a scrap piece of Timid Tiger.

Grab your Charming Day stamp set and find the “Happy Birthday” greeting and with your Mossy Meadow ink stamp on your white label. Adhere your white label to the Timid Tiger label with pop dots. Adhere your label to the front center of the card, only applying adhesive to the half that will adhere to the left side of the card.

With the white piece of card stock for the inside of your card and the Mossy Meadow ink stamp a birthday greeting, mine was “May this birthday bring life’s true gifts – good health, friendships, and love” from an old Stampin’ Up set.

There, you now have my take on a twisted card, it looks more complicated than it is when you have instructions. Was a bit harder when I was just trying to figure it out on my own.

Charming Day Floral Thanks Card

This Floral Charm suite is a really pretty set and I really like that the back of each floral piece of the Floral Charm designer series paper matches the front perfectly. The floral papers are just beautiful, including this lovely berry burst piece I used for this card.

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

Berry Burst card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Smokey Slate card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Floral Charm designer series paper (Stampin’ Up)
Charming Day stamps (Stampin’ Up)
Berry Burst ink (Stampin’ Up)
Berry Burst ribbon (Retired Stampin’ Up)
Scoring board or paper trimmer scoring blade
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice

From your Berry Burst card stock cut a card base to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and the fold over flap to 1 7/8” x 11” and fold in half. From the Smokey Slate card stock cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”, two pieces to 1 ¾” x 4 1/8” and another piece to 1 3/8” x 3 5/8”. Take your Floral Charm designer series paper pack find the piece with the large pink flowers and also the piece of Berry Burst. Cut two of the floral pieces (highlighting the pink flowers) to 1 5/8” x 4”. From the berry Burst designer series paper 1 5/8” x 4”.

With the Smokey Slate piece you cut to 1 3/8” x 3 5/8”, Berry Burst in and the “Thanks for being you” greeting stamp from the Charming Day stamp set and stamp in the other portion. Take the Berry Brust ribbon and wrap a piece around the Smoky Slate card stock piece about a 1/3 of the way down from the top and tie a knot and trip ends to preferred length. Take of the of the 1 ¾” x 4 1/8” Smokey Slate pieces you cut and stamp the “you made my day” greeting toward the top.

Now just start building your layers. Take your Berry Burst card base and the Smokey Slate piece cut to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and adhere to the Berry Brust. Then adhere each of your two floral pieces, one to each side. On the outside of your flap layer your piece of Smokey Slate, the Berry Burst designer series paper piece and then the stamped Smokey Slate piece stamped “Thanks for being you”.

Take your 1 7/8” x 11” piece you folded in half and adhere to the center portion of your card.

There, you now have a pretty card to give to someone who made your day, so you can make theirs as well.
