It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  It’s fun being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0128 is World Music Therapy Day which is March 2nd.

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 stripes, twine, and embossing.

Measurements

  • Cut 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ Balmy Blue CS scored at 4-1/4″. Cut 3-3/4″ off the upper right hand corner in both directions. See picture below.
  • Cut and adhere 4″ x 5-1/4″ Basic White CS inside the card.
  • Cut 3-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ DSP and then cut diagonally. Adhere the upper right triangle inside the card leaving a border. Adhere the lower left triangle on the front of the card.
  • Cut 3/4″ x 4-1/4″ Sahara Sand CS and adhere near the bottom on the front of the card. Cut and layer a 1/2″ x 4-1/4″ DSP on top of the Sahara Sand CS.
  • Run a scrap of Sahara Sand CS through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (SCEM) with the 4th largest Stitched Rectangle die. Adhere to card front being careful not to put glue in the upper right hand corner so you don’t glue your card shut. 🙂
  • Run DSP shown in picture through the SCEM with the 5th largest Stitched Rectangle die. Pop up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Decorate card as shown in the picture.

I have been a Stampin’ Up! demo since 2003 and have never even come close to earning the incentive trip.

Stampin’ Up Trimmer Tips

Hello, welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month our Design Team’s theme is “Fun Ways to Use Your Stampin’ Up! Products” where we show our favorite product tips. We hope you enjoy and will be inspired by them! Don’t forget to leave comments! We love hearing from you. At the end of my post, you will find the full line-up to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Stampin Up Diagonal Fold cards designed by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more card and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/stampin-up-trimmer-tips #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

These Diagonal Fun Fold cards are easy to make, but you need the Stampin’ Up Trimmer to make them. Most other trimmers don’t fit an 8-1/2″ x 11″ cardstock diagonally.

If you have an abundance of Designer Series Paper (DSP), cut it at 4″ x 5-1/4″ and then cut it in half diagonally. These cards look great in both the horizontal and vertical positions. Use any shape on the front and layer it if you’d like. All you need is your Stampin’ Up Trimmer, DSP, and coordinating cardstock. In a few minutes, you’ll have a stash of cards ready to send or a gift set ready to give to a friend.

I love to make fun fold cards and this Double Step card is one of my favorites!

I’ve attached a 1/4″ x 11″ strip of cardstock on the ruler of my Stampin’ Up Trimmer. It makes it easy to make cards like this one where you cut from 3″ down to 7″ instead of cutting through the entire piece. The Stampin’ Up! Trimmer is only $25 and needs to be in every crafter’s collection.

Even if you’re a seasoned stamper you may learn a tip or trick from my Stampin’ Up Trimmer video found here. (I also show where to attach the strip of cardstock to make it easier to see the ruler on your trimmer.)

More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Mark your calendars for our next blog hop on July 14th for “Wonderful Cards from the Garden” when our Design Team creates a project with flowers or scenes from the garden. Don’t miss the fun! Until then, have fun in your craft space.
