Happy Monday everyone,

The post Fun Fold Card – Arrow Fold appeared first on The Stampin' Room.

Take a look and see what I mean.
Those negative images can be used in creative ways. I made something fun today that I’d like to share. (Thank you to paulinespapier for the inspiration.) I find it hard to use the yellow tones some days, but I’m really happy how this turned out! The card is actually a flip card with 3 separate layers.
Each layer shows all three colors in the color combo I chose – Bumblebee (a new InColor), Smoky Slate, and the yellow/orange tones in the amazing Plaid Tidings DSP pack.
I was going to punch two holes in the top, but I’m glad I stopped myself! This way is waaayyy cuter!! I simply ran a 16″ piece of linen thread through the last layer and tied a knot at the top. Now the recipient can have the option of hanging this card on a door knob or hook
Of course a pretty card deserves a pretty package so I made a pocket from one of our medium Whisper White envelopes. I simply slit one end of it open first and then sealed the envelope. Now it becomes a pocket. It looked a bit too plain for my liking so I ran it through my new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine (which I absolutely LOVE!!) with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder.
There are a few more details I added to complete this project. I am going to try and do a short video in the next couple of days showing how I made these projects. So you can check back later.

 SUPPLIES
Ink Colors: Basic Gray (and re-inker)
Cardstock: Bumblebee, Basic Gray, Crumb Cake, Whisper White
DSP: Plaid Tidings, Gilded Autumn Specialty, and Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty
Additional Tools: Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Water Painters

The post Fall Plaids and Pretty Packages appeared first on The Stampin' Room.

This card is a version of the one you see in our catalogue on pg. 49. The layout has just been switched to portrait instead of landscape. The details in the stitching on these leaves is absolutely stunning. And do you see the stitched lines down the left side? That is what one of the dies does!

#155195   Love of Leaves Bundle   $64.75

Technique: You’ll notice that the leaves have a little streaky look to them. To achieve this look, use your finger dauber to pull off some of the ink before you stamp the leaves onto your cardstock.

However, if you have a longer wishlist…
Why not consider putting in onto a starter kit order? Then you will receive a discount on your supplies for as long as you stay active. The Starter Kit is a fantastic way for you to get loads of products at a huge value (for $135, choose $165-worth of products).

…AND…There is a Starter Kit Promotion this month!
During the Get & Go Starter Kit Promotion, they’ve added even more products to the Starter Kit offering—and at the same great price! They’ve specifically included these additional products to help new demonstrators hold an event right from the get-go and get their business off to a running start.

If you don’t want to hold events, no problem. Just think of this as a free card kit! You will have all the pieces you need to make 16 cards:)

Please let me know if you have any questions about purchasing a Starter Kit. I’d be happy to help! I bought mine 18 years ago simply because I wanted a lot of stuff…and the thought of getting a discount on everything I purchased really appealed to me! Best decision ever.

Happy Monday everyone!

Watch this video to see how easily it comes together…

Simple Sketch
I have a stack of old scrapbook magazines that I’m trying to make my way through. I like to pull out sketches that I can adapt with current products. This card came together pretty quickly with a few simple supplies.
Theme: Valentines Day
Supplies: Stamps, ink and paper
Tool: 1″ circle punch

I thought it would be perfect for my husband’s Valentines card:)

Stamp Set Used: Meant to Be (Occasions Catalogue)
Measurements:
smallest Whisper White tile: 1-1/4″ x 1-3/4″
next Whisper White piece: 2-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
Night of Navy piece: 2-3/4″ x 3-1/2″
Call me Clover piece: 3-1/2″ x 4-1/2″

Tip: Glue the white, night of navy, and call me clover pieces together and then punch the circles out (1″ circle) before adhering the whole thing onto your card! Then stamp your hearts inside the circles.

 And I finished off the inside like this:

I received this card from the super talented Donna Wizniuk…
How cute is this?! I want to point out a couple of things on this card.

First of all look at the shadow. Do you know where that came from? It’s the mountain from the Waterfront stamp set (upside down). Brilliant.

Secondly, she used our Stampin’ Blends to color the frog and unicycle. These high-quality, dual-tip markers in Stampin’ Up! exclusive colors will open a whole new world of colorful creativity. Each color marker comes in a light and dark shade and blend together beautifully. You can purchase them in a color combo pack, or individually. You can search all the colors in my online store HERE.
