Welcome to our monthly Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that are coming together to share our creative ideas with you.  We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can Inspire you to make creations of your own.

You may be starting here or have come from someone else’s blog – either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed – so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin’ Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin’ Up!® teams.

I made this fun fold card for the Boughs of Holly Stamp Camp. You can use this design again and again with different stamp sets.

Have you ever joined one of our Creativity Abounds Stamp Camps? We do a Stamp Camp every three months and it’s free to those who purchase the Boughs of Holly Suite (or $79 of any products) from me or one of my Creativity Abounds demo friends. I’ll be showing the Stamp Camp participants how to make this card on a Live video on Saturday, October 29th at 4pm CT. To get the directions and measurements you will need to join our Creativity Abounds Stamp Camp. There will be 13 Live videos by demos from all over the world, along with the 13 additional prerecorded videos and written tutorials for a total of 26 different projects! You also get free card kits to make 13 of the cards. I cut one extra card kit, so the first person to order $80 from my online store will get the last card kit. You will need the Boughs of Holly Suite collection to make the cards.

Give it a Whirl Halloween

Stampin Up Give it a Whirl dies, Stampin' Up! Halloween, Stampin Up' fun fold card, View-Master card, #stampingmom, #bethmccullough, #sharestampinup #cute&simple4u, #bright&happy, #stampinup

It’s time for another Festive Friday Card Making and Paper Crafting Challenge!  It’s fun being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0120 is Halloween which is October 31st.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used pumpkin, orange, stars, black and ghost.

When you use the Give it a Whirl dies, you get an interactive card like a View-Master. Did you have a View-Master as a kid? I did and thought it was super fun. I used the Alphabest Bundle to make the “boo!”. At the bottom of this post you can see all the products I used to make this card and click on the pictures to order from my online store.

So my “View-Master” shows stars, ghosts and pumpkins. This was actually an easy card to make. Let me know if I should make a video showing how to do it.

Cottage Wreaths Double Step

This month, the theme is a Color Challenge. Using Crumb Cake, Mango Melody, Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow, the Design Team has created some great projects that you will all want to see. We hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations! As you hop from blog to blog, we would love for you to leave a comment. Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Here’s a video from the past with the directions to make this type of fun fold card.

Directions to make a Double Step Card Base

  1. Cut Cardstock (CS) at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” (14.9cm x 21cm)
    scored at 4-1/4” (10.5cm).
  2. Using Trimmer, with short side of CS at the top, put left edge of CS at 1”
    (2.5cm) and cut from 3-1/4” (8cm) down to 7-1/2” (18.5cm). Turn CS over
    and keep the same short side at the top. Cut on this side the same as you
    just did, so you end up with two parallel cuts.
  3. Turn the CS so the long side of CS is at the top and the cut lines are
    toward the right. Put the left edge of CS at 3-1/4” (10.5cm) and using score
    blade, score down to 1” (2.5cm). Shift left edge of CS over to 6-1/2” (16cm)
    and score down to 1” (2.5cm). Shift left edge of CS over to 7-1/2” (18.5cm)
    and score down to 1” (2.5cm). Turn CS over so the other long side is at the
    top and repeat the directions scoring as you just did on the other side.
  4. Keep the long side of CS at the top and put the left edge of CS at 4-1/4”
    (10.5cm) and score from 1” (2.5cm) down to 4-1/2” (12.4cm).

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on November 9th when the theme will be Home for the Holidays.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.
