#Horizontal Pop-Out Swing Card w/sneak peek InColor

This month at my stamp club the ladies made a horizontal pop-out swing card using the Free as a Bird stamp set.

The card is really pretty simple, but it gives a big "wow" to anyone who receives it! I had a couple ladies who were unable to join us, and so I wanted to share the how-to instructions so they can have a visual.

Well, because the Seaside Spray cardstock is already sold-out, I came up with an alternative card that uses current (and a sneak peek of a soon to be released InColor) products.

Isn't the sloth so cute? And, he works so well for this card design. As I mention in the video step-by-step instructions below, the Stitched Nested Labels dies are on the retiring list and only available through May 3rd or while supplies last! I will really miss using them.

Here are the measurements for the card:

Smoky Slate card base: 11" x 4-1/4" and scored along the 11" side at 5-1/2" Blushing Bride: largest and 2nd smallest Stitched Nested Labels dies Basic White: 7-1/2" x 3-3/4" and scored along the 7-1/2" side at 2-1/2" & 5"; 2nd largest and smallest Stitched Nested Labels dies; 1/2" x 3" and scored along the 3" side at 1-1/2"

Here is the step-by-step instructional video:

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...

#SU! Christmas Season Simple Elegance Card

When you participate in a swap with other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, you often get some great ideas! Such was the case this month for me. I received in the mail a swap I participated in (hint: I share the card sent to me in my video tutorial!) this month. My good friend often includes me in her team swaps, and I'm so grateful. I loved the layout and immediately thought of the Christmas Season stamp set. This layout goes together so quickly that you could easily put together a stack of Christmas cards in no time. Change up the colors, and have a variety, or keep them all the same. Whatever you decide, I hope you'll try this out. Here are the measurements for the card: Sahara Sand cardstock: 5-1/2"x8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4" horizontally Blackberry Bliss cardstock: 3-7/8"x5-1/8" Basic White cardstock: 3-3/4"x5"; 4"x5-1/4" (inside); scrap for the greeting large enough to be cut from the Picture This Die Vellum cardstock : 1-1/8...

Accordion Z-Fold Card Tutorial

If you've been following me for awhile now, you know that I love the z-fold card. It's simple and yet a real "wow" for the recipient. Today's card adds just a little twist, a few more folds. And, it's a great way to show-off the beautiful Designer Series Papers that Stampin' Up! sells too. I put together a video showing all the steps to put together this fun-fold card. And, at the end I share a few more projects that I made using it. I hope you'll check it out.
