Do You Struggle….

with keeping track of birthdays for family and friends?  I know I do! Stampin’ Up! had designed the perfect solution with the Birthday Card Organizer Kit!

Birthday, Organizer, Kits Collection, Stampin' Up!, SU!

This kit comes with the pocket organizer – just add the months on each page!  AND – 12 cards – 6 each of 2 designs (the one in the middle and the one on the right).  There is no stamping required to assemble the kit and it comes complete with adhesive and dimensionals for easy assembly of the cards!

If you have a hard-to-buy for friend, neighbor, co-worker, or family member, consider purchasing the kit and either put it together for them before gifting it, or wrap it as is and let them have some crafty fun!  Better yet, purchase a few kits and get together with those friends and family members and assemble them together!  The instructions are easy to follow AND you’ll have fun crafting together!

You can also expand the contents of the kit as I did – the middle card has a water color backing – simply cut this card in half at the fold and use the back for another card – as I did with the card on the left.  You’ll need to add Basic White cardstock for your base and decorate with stamps on hand.

The Kit Contains:

  • One 8″ x 10″ (20.3 x 25.4 cm) monthly planner with space to record birthdays each month as well as a pocket sleeve to hold birthday cards.
  • Includes 12 full-size birthday cards, 6 of 2 designs, and 12 coordinating envelopes.
  • Includes Glue Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Adhesive-Backed Embellishments, and Tear & Tape Adhesive

Love You, Miss You

Hi!  Sorry I’m a  few days late, but I am back with a card featuring the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper pack today.  I LOVE this paper – it is gorgeous and perfect for Fall cards and Birthdays.

Isn’t this card gorgeous?  The only stamping is the sentiment which is heat embossed in White.

Ok, so if you haven’t done the Book Binding Fold yet, here we go – its pretty easy – but if you don’t understand something, please leave a comment and I’ll be happy to answer your question.

  • Basic Black – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ – score at 3 3/4″ and 4 1/4″.
  • Merry Merlot Card Stock – 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″
  • Designer Series Paper – 3 1/4″ x 4 1/4″

Wrap a piece of Black and White Gingham Ribbon in the 1/2″ between the two score lines.  Fold in on the 4 1/4″ as you normally would to close the card.  Fold back on the 3 3/4″ score line.  This is now where your card will open.   Run Tear and Tape over the Ribbon on the inside of the card – you may need 2 strips – and then close the card to “bind” it.

Cut the Merry Merlot into 2 pieces at 2 3/4″ along the 4 3/4″ side.  Cut the Designer Paper at 2 1/2″ from the top along the 4 1/4″ side.  Attach the Designer Paper to the Merry Merlot.   Attach the two pieces to the Base of the card leaving an opening between them for the sentiment.

Stamp your sentiment in VersaMark ink between the two images.  Sprinkle with White Embossing powder and heat emboss.

Attach a piece of Basic White paper  3 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ for the inside of your card.

I shared this technique with a group of ladies and they all loved it.  I hope you do, too!

Gilded Fall

Hi!

We are in full swing with fall here in the North East and I LOVE it!  So, today I have a gorgeous card for you featuring the Seasons of Chic and Celebrating You stamp sets.

Fall, Celebrating You, Seasons of Chic, #StampinUp!, #Embossing, #friendship

I love both embossing methods on this card – the dry embossing on the Cajun Craze cardstock using the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing folder as well as the heat embossing on the leaf and for the sentiment.

The foil behind the Cajun Craze adds a touch of elegance to the card.  The base of the card is Soft Suede.   The sentiment is stamped in VersaMark on a piece of Designer Series Paper from the Regals 6″x6″ Collection pack and heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.

The leaf is from the Leaf Label and Amber Gem combo pack.  The leaf outline stamp from the Season of Chic stamp set is stamped randomly on the leaf then heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.

A piece of Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine is colored with the Cajun Craze Stampin’ Blends.   I love using this method to color twine and ribbon to match my project.

I’ll be back with another Fall Card using the Rustic Harvest suite this weekend.

Thanks for stopping by!
