No Comments

I like this fun fold card using paper from Brushed with Beauty and the Detailed Dogwood and Something Fancy stamp sets all from Stampin’ Up.  The fold is a regular card fold with a reverse Z-fold piece on the inside. 

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

  • Early Expresso card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Very Vanilla card stock (Stampin’ Up)

  • Sticted Circle and Scalloped Stiched Circle dies (Unknown)
  • Early Expresso ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Early Expresso card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  Then use Very Vanilla card stock to cut a piece to 5 3/8” x 8 ¼” and fold in half and then fold one section in half again (forming a “Z” fold that will go the opposite direction for this card.  From the Brushed with Beauty designer series paper find the brown dogwood paper and also the tan with vanilla ovals paper.  Cut the dogwood paper to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and from the tan with vanilla ovals piece cut two pieces to 1 7/8” x 5 ¼”. 

Adhere the dogwood paper to the front of the Early Expresso card base.  Then take the Very Vanilla piece and adhere the large back section to with the inside back of your card with the folded section on the right side.  Adhere the two tan oval paper to each of the folded vanilla sections. 

With a stitched circle die measuring about 2 3/8” wide and use it to cut a circle out of the front of your card centered on 3 sides in the upper portion of your card.  The cut another out of Very Vanilla card stock.  Then use a stictched circle die measuring about 2 7/8” and cut out a circle from Early Expresso.  Use a scalloped stitched circle die measuring about 3 ¼” and cut out of Early Expresso and then use the 2 7/8” stitched circle die and cut out the middle.  Adhere the decorative one to the front of your card around the circle cut out of your card. 

Take your Very Vanilla circle and stamp in Early Expresso ink the “May the good you do come back to you” greeting to the left side of the circle.  The stamp the smaller dogwood from Detailed Dogwood in Early Expresso to the left side of the circle using the section that fit nicely with the greeting.  I stamped the top flower at the bottom to fill in a bit more.  Close your card and through the circle place adhesive on the right side of the circle and then open the card and align the stamped Vanilla circle through the window and then close onto the adhesive. 

For the Very Vanilla inside of your card, stamp the “thank you” greeting in Early Expresso in the upper center.  Stamp the smaller dogwood in the lower right corner. 

I love the style of this card, and dogwoods are a favorite as well.  A lovely thank you card to give to anyone.

No Comments

This card is made with the Texture Chic designer series paper from Stampin’ Up which is one of my all-time favorites, I just love the colors with the gold mixed in.  The flowers and stamp for the Happy Birthday greeting are from the Charming Day set. 

I found this card design on a page called “Stamp with Brian” and excluding the paper and colors it is almost an exact copy as I just loved it, so the credit goes to Brian for a great card design. 

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

  • Petal Pink card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Texture Chic designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Charming Day stamp set and dies (July 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)

  • Inside Greeting Stamp (Retired Stampin’ Up set, not sure which one but old wood block set)
  • Petal Pink ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

For you card base cut a piece from Petal Pink card stock measuring 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and then cut another piece to 3” x 4 ¼”.  From the Texture Chic designer series paper pack find the Petal Pink with the gold florets and the Petal Pink and white with the gold dots.  From the Petal Pink with gold florets cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and from the gold dots piece cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 3”.  Cut a piece of white card stock for the inside of your card to 3 ¾” x 5”. 

Adhere the Petal Pink with golf florets piece to the front of your card base.  Then adhere the polka dots piece to your piece of Petal Pink card stock and adhere that to the front center of your card front. 

From a piece of Petal Pink card stock use the large floral die from the Charming Day dies and cut one out, then cut out another with a piece of white card stock.  Adhere the Petal Pink one to the top of the white one, off centering a bit so they both show.  Adhere this to the front polka dot portion of your card in the lower left corner hanging over the edges slightly.  On a scrap piece of white card stock use Petal Pink ink and stamp the “happy birthday” greeting from the Charming Day stamp set, then cut out with the oval label die.  Adhere this to the front of your card, over part of your flowers and at an angle to your liking.

For the inside of your card take your piece of white card stock and adhere to the inside of your card.  Use the Petal Pink ink and the “I can’t think of a nicer person to celebrate” greeting stamp to stamp on the upper center of your white card stock. 

What a pretty birthday card to give to a friend.

Lovely Blossoms Diagonal Crossover Card

No Comments

This diagonal crossover card design is a stunning fold that I have seen a few others make.  I used the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper from Stampin’ Up for mine as I wanted to use stripes on the bottom flap and I love this paper right now.  The I used an old favorite, Season of Chic stamps for the perfect birthday greeting to show through. 

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

  • Cloud Cover card stock (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Old Olive card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Lovely Blossoms designer series paper (January 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Lovely Arrangements stamp set and dies (January 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Season of Chic stamps (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Cloud Cover ink (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends Marker (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Scoring Board or scoring blade for your trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

This card looks a bit complicated but it really wasn’t too bad, it is just paying attention to make sure you get your angles going the correct directions.  To start, take a piece of 8 ½” x 11” Cloud Cover card stock and score in half both directions creating four blocks.  Holding your paper vertical, cut out the upper left corner completely.  For the upper right corner, cut your angle from corner to corner, cutting from the upper left corner to the lower right corner, creating your flap the folds down.  For the lower left corner, cut your angle from the lower left corner to the upper right corner, forming your under flap. 

From white card stock cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and cut from the upper left corner to the lower right corner, this gives you the layers for your flaps.  Cut a piece for the inside of your card to 4 1/16” x 5 5/16”.  From the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper find the Cloud Cover stripes paper and the Cloud Cover floral paper, cut a piece of each to 3 ¾” x 5”.  The cut the stripes piece from the upper left to the lower right corner and use the bottom piece for your under flap.  The cut the floral piece from the lower left to the upper right (this paper is directional) and use the upper corner for your upper flap. 

Now take the large flower stamp from the Lovely Arrangements stamp set and tap in your Cloud Cover ink and then use your Secret Sea Stampin’ Write Marker to color the center of the flower.  Then huff on your stamp (blow warm breathe to remoisten your ink) and stamp on a piece of white card stock.  Use the die to cut out the flower and also the two leaf dies to cut out leaves from Old Olive card stock. 

Let’s get your card adhered together, start with adhering your two white diagonal pieces to your flaps, and then the stripes paper to the lower flap onto the white and the floral piece to the white on the upper flap.  Then adhere your full piece of white card stock to the inside of your card.  Adhere your flower to your upper flap overhanging where your diagonals cross over the white and the adhere your leaves as well. 

For the inside piece showing where your diagonals cross, stamp the “wishing you the best birthdays ever” greeting form the Season of Chic stamp set in Cloud Cover ink. 

What a beautiful birthday card for anyone.  I love this design.

Lovely Blossoms Floral Double Z-Fold Card

No Comments

I am infatuated with this card made with the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper and the Lovely Arrangements stamps and dies.  This is one of those card where I came up with what I wanted to do in my head and it actually turned out just like I pictured it, which doesn’t usually happen. 

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

  • Cloud Cover card stock (2025-2027 Incolor Stampin’ Up)
  • Old Olive card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Lovely Blossoms designer series paper (Stampin’ Up)
  • Lovely Arrangements stamp set and dies (Stampin’ Up)
  • Cloud Cover ink (2025-2027 Incolor Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea Stampin’ Write Marker (2025-2027 Incolor Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Scoring Board or scoring blade from trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Cloud Cover card stock cut a card base to 7” x 8 ½” and score at 2 1/8” and 4 ¼” and fold into your “Z” shape.  Cut 1 ½” off the top to make your card base measure 5 ½” x 8 ½” and then you have a matching strip for you double “Z”.  With your white card stock cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and two pieces to 2” x 5 3/8”

Take the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper pack and pull out a piece of the Cloud Cover striped paper and a piece of the Cloud Clover with white flowers.  From the striped paper cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.  Take the floral piece and cut two pieces to 1 7/8” x 5 ¼”.  Adhere each of these pieces to the white pieces.  Adhere the stripes paper on the white to the back of your card base.  Take one for floral pieces on white and adhere to the front half fold and the other to the inside center section.  Then take the 1 ½” long “Z” fold and adhere the long end to the front of your card and the short end to the back of your card to form your Double “Z” fold. 

Grab a piece of white card stock along with your Cloud Cover ink, Secret Sea Stampin’ Write marker and your Lovely Arrangements stamps and dies.  With the full flower stamp, tap your stamp onto your Cloud Cover ink and then take the marker and color the center and stamp on your white card stock.  Clean your stamp and repeat 3 more times.  Then do the same 4 times with the half flower.  Use your dies to cut these all out.  Then with some Old Olive card stock and the single and double leaf dies, cut two of each. 

Also stamp the “Thank You” and then the “So very much” underneath it, both in Cloud Cover Ink and use a label die to cut it out. 

To start building your flowers across your strip, adhere your label hanging above the strip, then adhere two full flowers and one half and a double leaf and two single leaves. 

Then adhere one full and one half to each of the small sections and divide your double leave into two singles and use one on each part.  The thing you may want to pay a little attention to, which I didn’t, is the flowers showing when the card it closed, but I don’t think it is a big deal, just mentioning if it will bother you. 

For the inside I used a label I had laying around as it was the perfect size, but I would say you can just cut a piece to 1 7/8” x 3” and adhere to the upper left side.  Then I adhere the last half flower to the bottom which looks like it is in the background of all the flowers on the strip and decorates your label.  This card turned out exactly as I picture I my head when I planned it, which is not usually the case.

True Blue Floral Kindness Card

I love the symmetry of this card and the color blends with the True Blue Floral designer series paper from Stampin’ Up.  I used the Mixed Labels stamps and dies to finish it off.

  • Balmy Blue card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • True Blue Floral designer series paper (December 2025 Product of the Month Stampin’ Up)
  • Mixed Labels stamp set and dies (Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From a piece of Balmy Blue card stock cut a card base t 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  With your Night of Navy card stock cut two pieces to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and one to 3 1/8” x 3 1/8”.  Take the True Blue Floral designer series paper pack and find the large floral piece with the Balmy Blue background, and the white and navy leaves with Balmy Blue background.  From the large floral piece cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and a second to 1 ½” x 4” and from the leaf paper cut a piece to 3” x 3”. 

Adhere your 3” x 3” leaf paper onto the 3 1/8” x 3 1/8” Night of Navy piece and then cut diagonally (watching direction of your paper) into two triangles.  Adhere one of your 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” pieces to the front of your card base and then the large rose piece to the front of that.  Now adhere each triangle along the outside right and left edges, centered from top to bottom, the tips will cross slightly in the middle. 

With the “your kindness made my day” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp on a piece of scrap white card stock in Night of Navy ink.  Use the larger size label die with the decorative edge to cut out your stamped greeting.  Adhere to the front center with pop dots to raise up slightly. 

For the inside adhere your last piece of Night of Navy paper and then the white piece of card stock.  Adhere the large floral strip to your white inside piece leaving about 1/8” of white showing to the left side.  Then take the “thank you” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp centered on the upper white area in Night of Navy ink. 

What an adorable way to say thank you to someone for their kindness.
