Flowers Galore & More

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, the theme is Flowers in the Garden. We hope you are inspired by all the wonderful creations the Pals share with you! As you hop from blog to blog, we love reading your comments. Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I love to grow fruit, vegetables and flowers in my gardens. Just in time for Easter, about ten bunches of daffodils were blooming beautifully in the gardens in front of my house. These stunning daffodils convinced me I needed to use the Daffodil Dies before they retire at the end of the month. The stamp set is sold out, but the dies are still available. They were originally $38 now selling for $15. You do not need the stamp set to make this card.

As I started to make the card, I realized everything I was using is on sale except the cardstock. What a great time to scoop up some awesome products at discounted prices. The Amazing Thanks dies are $10.80 originally $27. The Tea Boutique DSP, Fine Shimmer Paper, Vellum Layering Designs, 2021-23 In Color Opals and Fresh Freesia Ribbon are all drastically reduced. You can see all the products I used to make this card at the bottom of this post.

Measurements & Details-

  • Card Base 4-1/4” x 11” Mint Macaron
  • DSP Layer 4” x 5-1/4” -In the video I explain how to cut this down to the perfect “T shaped” layer for this card.
  • Vellum (2) ¾” x 4-1/4” adhere these with Mini Glue Dots.

Video-

If you watch the video, you will see that the cutting and scoring for this card is very easy with the Stampin’ Up’ Trimmer. Here’s the video showing how to make this card.

The sentiment inside is from the brand new Wonderful Thoughts stamp set which will be available to customers beginning May 2, 2023.

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team; The Pals are very excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on May 10th, when our theme will be a Tic Tac Toe challenge, where our Design Team will create projects, using elements/supplies that are three in a row, column, or diagonal from the tic tac toe board.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.

April 2023 Thank You Cards

I participate in Bruno and Kylie’s World Wide Training Group and am excited to be part of their monthly Blog Hop.   The Blog Hop focuses on the Thank You cards that we are sending to our customers. 

Stampin Up Shaded Summer thank you card designed by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more fun fold and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/april-2023-thank-you-cards #stampingmom, #bethmccullough, #sharestampinup, #cute&simple4u, #stampinup, #bright&happy  #happy #cardmaking #papercrafting

I love to send cards to my customers each month. Here’s a new fun fold I’ve never done before. I have a video showing how easy it is to make this card. You could use whatever Designer Series Paper (DSP) and stamps you already have. I used the Shaded Summer stamp set and Texture Chic DSP which are both retiring, but still available when I wrote this post. 🙂

Measurements & Details

Card Base 5-1/2″ x 11″ score with the short side at the top at 3-3/8″ and 7-5/8″

Cut 1-7/8″ from the top and bottom to the score lines on each side. You’ll have two flaps on one side and one on the other. It’s personal preference which side has two and which side has one. I’ve done it both ways. The video will really help you understand the scoring and cutting for this card.

(2) Gold Foil Layers on top and bottom 3-1/4″ x 1-3/4″

(2) DSP Layers on top and bottom 3-1/8″ x 1-5/8″

(1) Gold Foil Layer for middle 3-1/4″ x 1-5/8″

(1) DSP Layer for middle 3-1/8″ x 1-1/2″

All this to say all three pieces are the same length, but the middle piece is not quite as wide.

I hope you’ll consider adding the Rain or Shine Suite to your collection. 🙂

We had so much fun watchin Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeye Women’s Basketball team make it all the way to the National Championship!! They lost to LSU in the Championship game on Sunday, but they brought a lot of joy to Iowans throughout the season. Way to go Hawkeyes! (Steve and I are both graduates from the University of Iowa.) Caitlin Clark grew up in our hometown, West Des Moines, Iowa, as did Shawn Johnson, the great Olympic gymnast from 2008. We are so proud of these awesome Iowa women and the example they set for others! 🙂
