Country Birdhouse Center Pop Fold

Country Woods Pop Up Front Pretty in Pink

I absolutely love this gorgeous Country Birdhouse Center Pop Fold. We made these in both Pretty in Pink and Peach Pie at last month’s classes. But I can’t take credit for the design. I received a card just like this in a swap. Unfortunately, they ask us NOT to attach our names to our swap cards and I don’t have the name of the original creator.

Stampin’ Up! is always encouraging us to CASE (copy and share everything), but I normally prefer to create my own designs. However, one of my customers is a mortgage broker and she was asking for a card using this stamp set and this one was just TOO PRETTY not to use.

We made this card with a choice of Happy Birthday or the petal design you see above. The front of the card has a fold in the middle and the strip on the right is added with Dimensionals to create a “door stop” for the card.

As you can see, this card will stand up which make a nice decoration for a mantel, shelf or tiered tray. The front image doesn’t fold with the card front and stays flat.

The images were colored with Blends – Smoky Slate and either Pretty in Pink or Peach Pie depending on the birdhouse and DSP color.

Adventurous Sky Partial Front Flap

Today I’m sharing a fun Partial Front Flap card using the Adventurous Sky Suite of products. We made this card in last month’s class. It was a lot of fun.

Adventurous Sky Front

What a fun and masculine card. We used two different patterns of the DSP for this one. And, our greeting is stamped directly onto the die cut cloud.

Adventurous Sky Inside

I love the inside sentiment. You’re the Best PLANE and simple. So punny!

Adventurous Sky Detail

Note the propeller. We added a circle of vellum to give the illusion of a spinning propeller. The coloring was done using Blends and copied from the colors in the DSP. And, we embellished with the Industrial Trinkets.

Storybook Moments Squares

I recently attended Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage in Raleigh, NC. It was such a fun trip! Six members of my team attended, three I had never met, so it was great getting to know them.

OnStage Team Dinner

Of course we had to do some stamping, so we decided on a shoe box swap. If you haven’t heard of a shoe box swap, each of us prepared one project for everyone else to make. It was great fun and everyone participated!

One of my team members, Kathryn, made this cute card for her Shoebox Swap. I loved it so much that we did it in class last month.

I’ve seen this design with other stamp sets, too. It makes such a cute card.

Storybook Moments Suite

I call this a MEGA Suite becuase it has TWO bundles (stamps and dies), TWO sets of Designer Series Paper (DSP), Ribbon and Embellishments! The Storybook Friends Bundle has so many cute animals, and the Storybook Garden Patch Bundle is all about plants and vegetables.

One of my favorite products is the Timeless Plaid DSP that is so versatile!

When I cut the squares (1 1/4″), I was left with a 1″ strip of the DSP, which I cut into 1/2″ strips for the inside of the card. This was a part of Kathryn’s design.

I colored the rabbit with Petal Pink, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Mossy Meadow Blends. I colored the rocks and shrubs with Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow and Ivory Blends.
