Counting Sheep Fun Fold Birthday Card

Counting Sheep Stamp set and Sheep Dies

Counting Sheep Fun Fold Birthday Card

Counting Sheet inner card

Every Thursday night at 7 pm PDT, I host a Mystery Stamping project. We meet via zoom. Anyone is welcome to join, and everyone is encouraged to use the supplies they have on hand

This past Thursday, I introduced this simple fun fold. The two outer sides are connected by a horizontal piece across the front. The center opens independently after the gate opens. As soon as I saw this general concept on Pinterest, I had this idea for the Counting Sheep Stamp set and dies. A birthday party taking place on both sides of the fence! How fun is that?! The balloons, flags, and party hats are all included in the dies already. This was sooooo easy.

And here is the really great part!! It is Sale-A-Bration right now! The Counting Sheeps stamps are FREE with a $50 purchase. The Sheep Dies are also FREE with another $50 purchase!

Here are some details regarding this card:

Cardbase is 5 1/2" 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"

Cut the 2 side bars 1 1/8" wide up to the score line. The DSP is 1" x 4 1/8" each

The bar across the lower front card is 1 1/8" x 5 1/2". The DSP is 1" x 5 3/8"

The DSP for the remaining center card front is 4 1/8" x 3 1/8"

Keep a pc of DSP for the envelope flap 2 1/2" x 6"

Inner card layer is Basic White 4 x 5 1/4"

The rest is however your imagine directs you. Enjoy!!

Hugs,

Teah

Great Tidings - Christmas Card

Great Tidings

I colored the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper

Inner Card

Sometimes a mistake turns into a "happy accident" That is the case with this card. I didn't mean to order the Great Tidings stamp set, I entered a typo and didn't catch it when I placed my order. I didn't order the dies..... just the stamp set. I thought it was nice, but I wasn't in a hurry to get it..... I didn't have a design in mind.

In the same order, I earned some free Sale A Bration product and one of those items was the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper. Shortly after I received my order, I saw a short article where someone had colored their specialty paper. Well, I immediately thought that it would make a beautiful sky for the Three Wise Men. So my idea was born.......

I started with one pc of 6" x 6" specialty paper to experiment with adding ink to it. Now that I know more about it, in the future I will cut my paper down before adding the ink. I used a blending brush to add color starting from the bottom and blending to the top. I used Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Blackberry Bliss, and Night of Navy.

I stamped the Three Wise Men with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, and used Stampin' Blender pens to color them. I fussy cut them out (remember I didn't order the dies). I then used a Basic Black Stampin' Write marker to cover the white cut sides, which gives a bit of a more distinct edge to the Kings. I highlighted with Wink of Stella on the robes, and Crystal Shimmer effects on the crowns and gifts.

I used Gold heat embossing powder for the sentiment as well as the star. I fussy cut the star, and then added Wink of Stella around the star for added sparkle.

The sand is Gold foil, which paired extremely well with the Be Dazzling specialty paper.

The product details are listed below.

I hope my "happy accident" is an inspiration for your use of either this specialty paper or the Great Tidings stamp set.

Sale a Bration is going on now, and with a $50 purchase you can get a package of this specialty paper for free. There are 8 sheets of 6"x 6" in a package.

Stay safe and be well,

Hugs,

Teah

Delicate Dahlias - Thank you card

Delicate Dahlias Thank You card

Love the font in the Delicate Dahlias stamp set

Inside of card and matching envelope

Hello friends! I hope your summer is going well! We have been a little bit busy and a little be relaxing.

Now with the ability to meet in person, I am ramping up my Stampin' Up! business. I held my first in person class last week, and had so much fun with people that I didn't know before. It was awesome to share my love of stamping and paper crafting in person. I also shared the same class as a "to go" option, and that went well as well! This blog will become more active and newsletters will be available. I do hope you will follow me as I build my small business. I absolutely love crafting and to share my passion with others brings me real JOY!

Today I made this card using one of the Black and white prints from the Pattern Party DSP pack that is available as a host incentive. The stamped images and sentiment are from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that is available for free with a $50 purchase during Sale A Bration, now through the end of Sept.

This card is a standard 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" finished size. It was quick and easy to make with the heat embossing of the large Dahlia and the sentiment taking the most time. See below for measurements and product details at the bottom of the post.

Card base: 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2" This is a side fold card

Daffodil Delight Mat: 1 pcs 4"x 5 1/4" (1 inner, 1 outer)

DSP: 3 7/8" x 5 1/8"

Daffodil Delight card front: 3 7/8" x 3 5/8"

Basic White: 3 7/8" x 5 1/8"

Thank you for reading my blog today.

Stay safe and be well,

Hugs,

Teah
