Petal Palette Thank You Corner Fold

It’s time to share a few retiring items with you from the Petal Passion Suite.  This suite has some fabulous products in it — a few will be staying with us in the new Annual Catalog but many are starting to disappear already.

I love cards with different folds.  I haven’t done this fold in a long time but it is always a hit, it has a fun corner fold that leaves a border for the stamped image.  I used one of the Petal Passion Designer Paper prints (retiring) with Rose Red cardstock (this is one of the retiring colors).

 

Petal Palette Stamp Set, Petals & More Framelits, Thank You, Fund Fold
The card base is 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — score at 4 1/4″.
Then with a pencil I made a light mark on the right hand side at 3 1/4″, make another mark on the top edge at 3 1/4″.  Put this in your Paper Trimmer lining the pencil marks along the cutting groove (don’t cut it), use the scoring blade to score on the diagonal.  Then fold back along the score line.
Petal Passion Designer Paper is cut 4″ x 5 1/4″ — again I used a pencil and made light marks at 3 1/8″ and this time cut the diagonal off.  Attach designer paper under the flap.  Then adhere the flap down to designer paper.
Black — 3″ x 3″
Whisper White — 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ — stamp “Thank You” and “For Everything” with Memento ink
Whisper White — 2″ x 2 3/4″ — stamp bird with Memento ink — cut out with framelit.  Attach bird with Dimensionals.

The stamp set and framelit are carrying over to the Annual Catalog but not as a bundle so if you want to save the extra 10% on the bundle you’ll need to get it ordered now.

Color Revamp — Out with the Old and In with the New

Color Revamp

Stampin’ Up! has decided it’s time for a Color Revamp and I couldn’t be happier.  It’s time to let go of some colors that we don’t use as much any more and bring in some old favorites and a few brand new colors.  This helps us stay fresh, updated and a bit more on trend with fashion styles.  So, what’s leaving?  We have 13 current colors leaving:

Color Revamp
And we have 4 2016-2018 In Colors that are retiring – that’s right only 4 are retiring — Flirty Flamingo is staying and becoming a “regular” color with the new catalog.

Let the Good Times Roll Pop Up Card

WOW — what a fun card to make — time consuming and little pieces but it is so darn adorable I forgot all the hard work that went into it.  It makes me smile every time I open the card.  Sometimes it IS WORTH the extra time involved to make that special card.

So what was the special card — I used the Let the Good Times Roll Stamp Set and the Thrill Ride Framelits to make this fun roller coaster pop up card.  It almost looks like those little cars are really going to move on the roller coaster, don’t you think so?

 

Let the Good Times Roll stamp set, Thrill Ride Framelits, Birthday
The front of the card is adorable just like this but wait, open the card up…………..

 

Let the Good Times Roll Stamp Set, Thrill Ride Framelits, Pop Up Card, Birthday
Isn’t it just the cutest!!!  I love every detail on this card.  Yes, it did take a while to make — glue dots made the assemble quicker and a few mini dimensionals to give some more depth.  Now, who to give this card too!!!
I look forward to make a few more of these beauties.
