Beauty Abounds CASE from Kelly Acheson

May 17, 2019

Today I have a CASE (Copy and Share Everything). This card uses the Beauty Abounds stamp set that will be carried over to the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog. I'm happy about that! Kelly Acheson first made this card. I think it's so pretty that I don't think I changed anything except the designer paper and the colors. She has a great video that shows how to make the card here. There's no need in me making another. Here is my card.

The card base is Rich Razzleberry. The base measures 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score at 1" and 4 1/4"

Stamp over the front of the card base with a butterfly from Beauty Abounds. Use Rich Razzleberry ink. Now bend back at the 1" score line. You can put a little gle behind there to hold it in place. Add a strip of Share What You Love Designer Series Paper that measures 7/8 x 5 1/2. Tie around this section from top to bottom with Black Twine and tie in a bow near the top.

For the front panel, you will need a piece of Basic Black cardstock that measures 3 x 4 1/4. The Whisper White layer is 2 7/8 x 4 1/8. Stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento ink with the long swirls stamp down the side. Add the stamp again across the bottom. The saying is from Beauty Abounds. Color this with Light Razzleberry, Light Old Olive, and Light Crumb Cake Blends. Adhere the layers. When attaching this to the card, take warning that part of the layer will extend over the card front. Be careful when adding the dimensionals.

The inside Whisper White of the card measures 4 x 5. Score and fold at 2 1/2 along the 5 inch side. Stamp the saying and add another strip of the Share What You Love Designer Series Paper that is 7/8 x 4. Stamp the swirl on the other side of the fold and color as on the front. Glue down the right side of this insert lining up with the fold. For the left side, add a glue dot and close the card. If you glue this side, it will not look pretty.

It's really not easy to take pictures of this card. I do love that the layout is just a little different than usual! Thanks, Kelly! I love the saying, too!

Thanks so much for visiting today! You are the best! If I can send you one of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogs, please let me know. I would love to be your demonstrator.
