Thoughtful Wishes Bundle with the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper

Hello to you today!  Thanks for checking in with me today.  I have a beautiful card using the brand new Thoughtful Wishes bundle.  Find it on pages 46 and 47 of the new catalog.  It's coming to everyone on May 1.  The bundle is also part of the Thoughtful Journey Suite Collection.  Here's my card.

 

I love how this card turned out.  The base of this card is Lost Lagoon 4  1/4 x 11, scored and folded at 5 1/2.  The front of the card is covered with a piece of the Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.  Cut the paper 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 to fit the front of the card.  I chose this piece of designer paper because it matched my base of Lost Lagoon.  It's a perfect piece to build a card.   I used the package seen on page 46 as the inspiration for this card.

Cut the largest die from the Thoughtful Wishes dies in Lost Lagoon.  Glue to the card front in the  center and just a little to the left.

Stamp the saying from Thoughtful Wishes inPetunia Pop on a Basic White scrap.  Cut it out with the saying near the bottom using a die from the Autumn Leaves dies.  Glue the label to the right and below the mid point of the front.

Cut the following from a piece of Watercolor Paper:  three of the flowers with a long stem and 5 of the leaves that are more solid and the veins cut out.  Color the flowers and leaves with Water Painters.  Use Petunia Pop and Old Olive ink pads.  I put ink on a clear block and use that to color.  No need to try to make all of the color uniform.

Build the flowers and leaves on the label.  Glue.  

Use the white ribbon from the Petal Pink & White Trim combo Pack.  Tie it around the front of the card and hide the base of the flowers and leaves.  Tie in a knot at the left of the label.

Finish with the 2024-2026 In Color Resin Dots to embellish.

The saying on the inside of the card is from Thoughtful Wishes in Petunia Pop.  Use Stampin' Write markers directly on the red rubber of the stamp and stamp in the center of the bottom.  Cut three more leaves from Watercolor Paper and paint as before.  Glue to the card stock.

I've been challenged to make 6 cards with the Thoughtful Wishes bundle.  So far I have posted 3 of them.  You can find the other two here and here.

Hope You Know Autumn Card with Tutorial to Download

Today I want to share with you my card for the Tutorial Medley group for October.  Our theme is fall.  We are a group of demonstrators from the US and Canada.  We each make a card with a tutorial to download and add to the group.  Each month we have a compiled group of around 15 tutorials.  We each share as we wish.  I send the tutorial to my customers and to my Luv 2 Create team.  It's my way of trying to give back.  I do appreciate their support.

This card features the Aspen Tree dies for the leaves, the All About Autumn 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper, and the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder.

If you would like to download the tutorial for this card, Download Hope You Know October 2023.

I'll leave you with a few more pictures.

I think the simplicity lends to the elegance of the card.  I love the copper embossed saying from the Hope You Know stamp set.

Flap Fold with He's the Man Designer Series Paper and More!

Today's card has a flap fold.  It's super easy to make the fold.  I hope you'll like it.  Here's the card.

Start with a base of Pumpkin Pie that is cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  That's the size of a regular card.

The He's the Man Designer Series Paper is our masculine paper.  It does make the card rather dark, but I still think that it's really cute, too.  Cut a piece that is 4 x 5 1/4.  Cut another piece that is 4 x 4 in another pattern.

Fold the square diagonally.  Glue half of the square to the back of the larger piece on the right side.  The part of the square sticking out will fold back over the side to the front of the card.  The corners of the square will extend just a little beyond the top and bottom of the rectangle.  Trim that little part away.  Now glue the front panel to the base of the card.

The back part of the designer paper will show.  I decided that that design did not enhance my card.  I cut another 4 x 4 square and cut it on the diagonal.  Glue that piece to the back of the diagonal so that it shows when the flap is opened.  Of course this part would be optional if you like the back of the DSP.

To decorate the card, use the Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper and the Rustic Pumpkins dies.  The designer paper had two sizes of the pumpkin pie check.  I chose to have the center of the pumpkin in a larger plaid.  Cut the center and 2 of the side pieces for the pumpkin.  Glue these together to make the pumpkin.  Cut the vine pieces in Parakeet Party cardstock.  There are three designs for the vines.  I cut an extra of one of them.  I put some of the Adhesive Sheets behind the cardstock.  When peeled away, the vines become stickers and apply easily.  The stem is cut from Soft Suede cardstock.  Also cut a leaf from Parakeet Party.  The base of the pumpkin is added with dimensionals.  Be sure be leave the area on the right without dimensionals be that the flap will fit under it.

The saying is stamped in Early Espresso ink on Basic White.  Fussy cut around the saying with Paper Snips.

Embellish with 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds in Pale Papaya.  Add a bow of the Black & White Gingham Ribbon.  I colored it with a Dark Soft Suede Blend.

Since this card does not open, I put the inside of the card on the back of the card.  All is from the Hello Harvest stamp set.  

The Hello Harvest stamp set can be purchased with the Rustic Pumpkins dies as a bundle with 10% savings.  Products used are listed below and are linked to my online store.  Thanks!

Luv 2 Stamp Blog Hop for October, 2022 Thanksgiving

 

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Blog Hop for October!

We are excited to share projects with you. We hope to inspire you to create beautiful new projects. Each month we will have a different theme based on the next month’s celebrations using Stampin’ Up! products.

Once you are done with each post, scroll down to the bottom and you will see a list of Blog Hop participants, you can click on their name to go to their post, or you can click the next button to go to the next post in line. Happy crafting! This month’s theme is Thanksgiving.

This month I have a fun fold for you.  My friend Jean gave me a birthday card last month with this fold.  I just had to copy and put my own spin on it.

This is one of those cards that made me giddy when I finished it!  I love everything about it!    There's a small card featured on the front that opens.  Once opened you see the diagonal panel that also opens so that you can see the sentiment.

Here's a look with everything opened.  

Start with a base of Basic Black.  It measures 5 1/2 x 8 1/2.  Score and 4 1/4.  Make a diagonal cut from the top of the fold down to the opposite corner at the lower right.   Use the Paper Trimmer  making sure to put the place you want to cut in the well of the cutting area.  Here's a picture of how to line it up on your trimmer.  There's another picture of how it looks from the back.

 

Cut two pieces of Pumpkin Pie cardstock ato 4 1/8 x 5 3/8.  Cut one in half again on the diagonal in the same direction.  Put the rectangle piece on the inside of the card.  Put one of the diagonals on the front flap.  Put the other on the inside of that flap.  Turn the paper so that it fits.

We are using paper from the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper.  For the inside of the card, I used the paper with acorns and leaves.  Cut it to 4 x 5 1/4 and glue.

Cut a piece of the leaves on a black background to 4 x 5 1/4.  Cut this piece on the diagonal and glue to the front flap.  Cut another piece of the designer paper to 4 x 5 1/4.  Cut on the diagonal.  This one will be in a different direction from upper right to lower left.  Glue on the inside flap.

Now we are ready to make the inside smaller card.  Cut Basic Black to 3 x 8 1/2 and score at 4 1/4.  Fold and burnish.  Cut 2 pieces of Pumpkin Pie measuring 2 7/8 x 4 1/8.  One goes on the outside and the other goes on the inside.  Cut a piece of designer paper 2 3/4 x 4 and add to the front.  Cut a piece of Basic White the same size.

For the inside, use the leaf stamp from the Hello Harvest stamp set.  Stamp off in Pumpkin Pie and stamp in the center.  Stamp the saying from Charming Sentiments in Memento Black.

For the outside, use the Rustic Pumpkins dies.  Cut the pumpkin from the Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper.  Cut one center and two sides.  Glue the sides down and add the center with dimensionals.  Cut the stem from Soft Suede cardstock.  Cut the vines from Granny Apple Green cardstock.  Add Adhesive Sheets to one side.  Cut all three of the vine designs.  Pull off the adhesive backing and add to the card as you wish.

The saying is from the Hello Harvest stamp set.  Stamp on Basic White in Memento Black.  Fussy cut around the saying with Paper Snips.  Glue to the pumpkin.  Finish with a bow of the Black and White Gingham Ribbon.

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit me today.  I do appreciate it!  I know you'll want to go to each of the participants in our hop.  Sometimes I feel like Thanksgiving can be overlooked.  I think being thankful adds to our own happiness!

Christmas Season for Fall

Welcome to the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge #686.  This week we are using Evening Evergreen, Pumpkin Pie, and Bumblebee.

Of course these colors are great for fall.  What better set to use than a Christmas one!  I used Christmas Season and the Seasonal Labels dies.  You can get them both together as a bundle with a 10% savings.

The base of the card is Evening Evergreen 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and folded at 4 1/4.

The next layer is Basic White, 3 3/4 x 5.  I cut a 1 1/4 inch piece of Evening Evergreen from the Christmas Tidings 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.  Glue this to the white layer at a diagonal.  Trim away any excess.  Now run this layer through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder.

The saying on the front of the card is from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set.  Stamp in Evergreen on Basic White.  Use the Tasteful Labels dies to cut this out.  It goes in the center of the card with dimensionals.  Run a length of the Linen Thread around the label.  Add a bow with a glue dot.

Stamp and cut out several of the images from Christmas Season.  I cut about 4 of 3 different fronds.  For the one with the berries, I stamped off for the stem.  Use Bumblebee for that one.  I also made stems in Evening Evergreen and Pumpkin Pie.  Arrange around the sentiment label.  Add with a glue dot down near the bottom.  Add a dimensional near the top.

Embellish the card with Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots.

Here is the inside of the card.  The sentiment is from Quiet Meadow.

I'm so glad you stopped by today.  Did you like have Christmas Season make a fall card?  It's not an original idea, but it's a good one.
