Rectangle Flip it card using Birds and Branches bundle and Flowers for Every Season DSP




 Welcome to my blog. It’s been very foggy lately so I decided I wanted to make a colorful card. I used the Birds and Branches bundle paired with Flowers for Every Season DSP. I have a die from my stash that makes the flip it card base. There are several tutorials on YouTube that show how to make it if you don’t have a die. I started this yesterday but had misplaced my stamp set. I found it this morning. I’m still waiting for my order from the new Mini Catalog. Once it comes I will share projects using the products.



Materials and Directions 
- For the card base I used Bumble Bee cardstock and die cut the card base.
- For the layers I die cut the layers using the the dies I had that went with the die set.
- I die cut the rectangles from layered rectangles. The larger two in Night of Navy cardstock and the two smaller in white. The white layers I stamped the images. I used Soft Suede for the branches, Night of Navy for the birds and Garden Green for the leaves. I used Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends to color the bird. I then adhered the layers and adhered to the card base.

You can order these products from my website. Remember the Year end Clearance is still on.

Snowman Season window card


 Welcome to my blog. I have a grid die so I tried making a window card. It took me awhile but I think I got it. I will need to make more for practice and eventually make a shaker card using this die and stamp set.

Materials and Directions 
- Card base is a piece of White cardstock 4-1/4 x 5 x 1/2.
- Card layer is. piece of White cardstock 4 x 5-1/4. I took a piece of Trimming the Town DSP the same size. I used a border die to cut the paper as you see it then glued this to the white layer piece.
- I stamped the image and used Balmy Blue Stampin blends to color. I then added the embellishments.
- Using my grid die I made the window out of Night of Navy cardstock . I glued acetate to it and then adhered to the card. If you don’t have a grid die you can use a piece of cardstock 4 x 5-1/4 and with your shape dies cut the windows.
Happy Crafting!

Simple cards using Poinsettia Place DSP


 Welcome to my blog. If your like me you have a lot of scraps. I made these cards using scraps from Poinsettia Place DSP. I also used scraps of card stock I had.
Materials and Directions 
Card 1

- I started with a card base of Cherry Cobbler 4-1/4 x 5-1/2.
- Layer is a piece of the DSP 4 x 5-1/4. I then adhered to card front.
- The trees I made using Stitched Triangle dies. I made my own paper by using a paw print stencil and inked in green. I then cut out using the dies to make the trees. I adhered them to the front. If you don’t have a stencil you can die cut your trees out of DSP.
- The little corgi is from a die I have and cut out of copper foil sheet in annual catalog. You don’t need it you substitute with die you have or place sentiment.

Card 2

-  I started with a card base of Early Espresso 4-1/4 x 5-1/2
- Layer 1 Garden Green cardstock 4 x 5-1/4 . Adhere to card front.
- Layer 2 DSP 3-1/2x 5. Adhere to card front.
- Border I made using the die from Ornate Border dies using copper foil sheet. If you don’t have the di you can cut a strip from the foil sheet or cardstock to use as the border.
- Poinsettia I made from dies from my stash. If you don’t have Poinsettia dies there is a wonderful set in the Mini Catalog. 

You can order the Stampin Up products from my website.
