Hidden Surprise Card

This card is the first one I made to prepare for the video.  It's a Hidden Surprise Card, and uses the main colors Calypso Coral along with the butterflies from the new DSP coming out soon called Butterfly Bijou.

 

You can order amazing Suite now!  This is an early release from the 2021 Annual Catalog so it will be available for well over a year.  The paper is gorgeous and is a lot of fun to play with!  So many things that can be done.

Hydrangea Hill Suite Panels

This card was inspired by the Hydrangea Suite.  I used this 3 panel card design for a fair entry a few years ago and thought it would be perfect with this absolute gorgeous paper!

The trick with this is really easy!  Cut the three panels as one piece to start with so you have continuity between the parts.  Then make the cuts to make the panes.  Looking closely you can see how the design continues between one panel and the other. 

I used Gorgeous Grape as the card base, Basic Black as a layer, a piece of striped DSP as the background, Highland Heather as the mats, and more of the DSP for the panel fronts.  The greeting is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink.

On the inside, I used a strip of the striped DSP and layered a cut-off piece of the hydrangea paper for some interest.

If you'd like the exact cutting directions, let me know and I'll add them.

Strawberry Treats!

This gift box was inspired by another Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Diane Heatherington.  I took her idea and twisted it a bit.

I used the Mini Pizza boxes and stamped the strawberries before I folded it.  The pink tissue paper is from a gift I received from my husband.  I found the Hershey Strawberry Heart chocolates, and added the calyx from the punch with a glue dot.

What an excellent way to show someone you really appreciate them.  It's not just a thank you it's a special thank you treat!

June 6th 2020 Club Cards Part 1

Here are the first 2 cards from our Card Club meeting.
They are fairly simple - The other two were much more involved and I had a purpose with these 2 very simple cards.

 They are from a DSP pack called Flowers for Every Season.  The top card used one panel of each of our new In-Colors (shown in 2 previous posts).  I also cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of the DSP as a panel.  We compared how the DSP looked on each piece of new cardstock and found some looked better than others.  It's how color works!

This piece used some Thick Whisper White as the card base (which I rarely do), Poppy Parade as the mat and a piece of the Flowers for Every Season poinsettias as background and the cut flowers at the front.
