By My Side Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold

Happy Saturday everyone!  As you read this, I am at a 5-day stamping/crafting event with my friends.  There are 6 of us in total.  We do this event each October and look forward to spending time crafting, laughing and eating together.  The best part is we can leave our stuff out each night and pick up right where we left off each morning!  

For today's project I have my final project featuring By My Side by Stampin' Up!  I've paired this one with Beauty of Friendship for a fabulous fall card.  I hope you are inspired by my card and the technique used to give the tree it's fall colors.  Be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel to see how I achieved the look HERE:

Grassy Grove Father's Day with New Horizons

Hello again.  Hope everyone is well.  My project for today features the New Horizons Designer Series Paper (DSP) and the Grassy Grove bundle available in the Stampin' Up! January-June 2022 mini catalog.  I love how easy it is to make quick cards using this bundle and the gorgeous DSP.   You can see how I put this card together here: https://youtu.be/6QVnObn3bcA 

These cards were so much fun, I made several using different patterns of the DSP and experimenting with some color options.  They are all made the same way, just different DSP and colors.  

I left the inside of this without a sentiment so I can add later when I know who the recipient is and what occasion I'll be using it for.  With the Thinking of You sentiment, which is from Beautiful Friendship, it can be used for most any occasion and I love the versatility of that.  Ink colors used are Garden Green, Evening Evergreen for the tree and Soft Suede for the deer.  All tree trunks on the die cuts were colored with the Natural Tones Stampin' Blend in SU 100, which is the darkest color in the collection.

This stamp comes from Grassy Grove and is stamped using Garden Green ink.

For this one, I pulled the sentiments from Best Year which is a retiring stamp set on the Last Chance list and available while supplies last through April 2022.  Inks used for stamping Soft Suede, Garden Green and Evening Evergreen.

Inks used for stamping inside were Garden Green and Evening Evergreen on the tree leaves and Soft Suede on the tree trunk and sentiment.

For this card, I used sentiments from Happy and Heartfelt available through June 2022.  The colors I used to stamp the tree images were Garden Green for the background stamp and Old Olive for the detailed tree stamp. 

I hope you have enjoyed this projects.  Please leave a comment and let me know which one is your favorite.  If you would like to order any of the products I've used today, click on the shopping cart in the upper right.  It will take you to my online store where you can shop 24/7.

Beauty of Friendship Wildlife Wonder

 Happy Saturday to all of you!  I have a fun fold for you today.  My project utilizes a fabulous pack of Designer Series Paper (DSP) for the background.  You can watch the FB live replay of how I put this card together here: https://youtu.be/j8KF4U-Ixv4 

The above photo is the center fold of the card (sort of).  It features the tree and bird from Beauty of Friendship (currently on sale through March 31, 2022 for 20% off when you purchase the bundle) stamped on the beautiful New Horizons DSP all by Stampin' Up!  I love how easy it is to work with DSP to make beautiful scenery cards.

The photo above shows what the card looks like when it's closed and the side flap is over the card base as intended.  The DSP is again the New Horizons 6x6 DSP and the detailed bear comes from the stamp set called Wildlife Wonder.  Such a great stamp set to make masculine or nature cards with.  This bear is my favorite image.  

The photo shown here is the inside card.  I used a 1" x 5 1/4" strip of the same DSP I used on the card base to add to the right side of the inside layer.  The owl image is from the Wildlife Wonder stamp set.  I didn't add an inside sentiment to this card as I feel it can be used for many things and I will add the appropriate sentiment when I have a recipient and occasion in mind.

Supplies and Measurements:

Card Base 5 1/2" x 7 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" Evening Evergreen

Blackberry Bliss cardstock, 2 5/8" x 4", scored at 1 /2" and 3 1/8" x 5 3/8"

 x 5 1/4" and 1" x 5 1/4" from same sheet, scrap to stamp tree top image on, 2 1/2" x 3 3/8" for flap layer
