I am not much of a Measurer and if it takes me too long to ‘figure it out’ I tend to not want to do it! That doesn’t mean that I WON’T do it, just that I put it off until I have plenty of time! I keep seeing these Pop-Up Cards and I wanted to figure out an easy way to make one, that I could teach and show on a video…….
I figured out a quick and easy way to make a Pop-Up card that takes minimal measuring and hardly ANY stress! Check out my video!
Here is the front of the card:
I absolutely LOVE this Stampin’ Up! set: Waterfront! It really makes you feel like an artist, and you can make the scenery any way you can imagine!! I changed the scenery inside, popped up some trees and I am thrilled with the result!
The trees fold down when the card is closed and Stand up when open! On my video you can see just how easy this card is!
Here is the view from above:
I hope you like this card as much as I do! The supplies are listed below, just click on any picture to be taken to my OnLine Store!
Until next time!

The card today is one I came up with all by myself! That happens rarely and I get so tickled when I make something that I didn’t get any help from Pinterest or any other places! It popped into my head and it came out even better than I thought it would!!
Not only is this stamp set Gorgeous, but did you know that Stampin’ Up! has a patent pending on HOW they made it?!! When you look at the actual stamp before inking it up, it looks absolutely FLAT! How in the World did they get a completely flat stamp to have so much dimension!? NOT sure what/how they did it but I love it!
I’ve seen pictures of people who have stamped it and used different colors to differentiate the flowers, here is one I took while at On Stage Live in Salt Lake City:
Isn’t that So pretty!!!? The hint they gave to us was to stamp it with a light color so you could follow it. If you give it a try I would love to see it! I tried, but it didn’t come out. That is why mine is one color! Hahahaha I’m still trying to figure out how to work the blends and have perfect shading………
So for my card above, I used Rich Razzleberry Cardstock, black and Gold Glimmer paper! I added ribbon to the back by putting Tear & Tape around the edges (after I stamped it and cut it with the Stitched Framelits) and then I pleated the Black 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon over the tape. I then used the Foam Adhesive Strips to make it stand up higher.
I added some Fine Tip Glue to put some Gold Glitter on the smaller flowers. I also used the Gold Metallic Edge Ribbon and colored it with the Razzleberry Blend so it would go with the card! Love that!
I stamped the sentiment in the Basic Black and then immediately clear Embossed it so it would give texture and it just makes the Sentiment look so elegant, don’t you think?
Here are the Dimensions of the paper:
Rich Razzleberry: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, 4″ x 5 1/4″ (x2) one for the inside,
3 5/8″ x 3 3/4″
Basic Black 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ (x2) one for the inside
Gold Glimmer paper 3 7/8″ x 4″
Whisper White 2 3/4″ sq (to fit the square stitched framelit)
I hope this helps!!

I was perusing Pinterest the other day and saw this really cute card that had the ‘wind’ from the Christmas Stamp set “Star of Light” blowing out a candle. Well, my mind went immediately to the Dragon in the SU! set Magical Day and how cute would it be if he was Lighting a candle!? This is how my mind works sometimes so I went with the idea!
Here is the card:
As I’ve said before ‘I just love this dragon’! I love how I colored him this time using Calypso Coral Blends and Cherry Cobbler Blends. NEVER would I have put these colors together but, again, I saw it done on Pinterest. It really makes him stand out, doesn’t it?
Here is the inside:
This Stamp set from SU! also has thinlits that cut out not only the characters, but the Banner seen above! Waves, that I will be using soon, and lots of other goodies!!
For the flags in the front, I used the Myths & Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper. I sponged the edges with the color that was on the DSP, and also made a banner out of the Silver Glimmer paper and the FREE Shimmer Ribbon pack from the Sale-A-Bration catalog! This ribbon is so pretty!! And it comes in THREE colors and sizes! I also used Rhinestones and the Scattered Sequins Embossing folder.
The Dimensions are as follows:
Cherry Cobbler 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Daffodil Delight 5″ x 3 3/4″
Dapper Denim banner 2″ x 5″
Gray Banner 1 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
Silver Banner 1/2″ x 3 1/2″
Calypso Coral Ribbon 3 3/4″
Scrap of White for Stitched Oval
Scrap of Calypso Coral for Scalloped Oval
Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″ (inside)
I really hope that those who received these swaps love them as much as I do!!

I am sharing with you a card that I made for a swap that I signed up for where I made 20 of these cards (below) and received 20 different swaps back!
Here is my card:
I think I love this stamp set so much because it reminds me of Disney and being a kid. Below I will have all the supplies listed to make this card, just click on any of the pictures to be taken to my OnLine Store.
I also used the Stamp set In the Trees by Stampin’ Up! for the grass under the dragon. I stamped the ‘Magic stars’ in Versamark on the Black and then embossed it with Silver Embossing powder. I thought it added just that right sense of MAGIC!!
The dimensions for this card are as follows:
Bermuda Bay Base: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Soft Sky: 5 1/4″ x 4″
Cherry Cobbler: 2 1/8″ x 3 7/8″, scrap for scalloped Ovals
Whisper White: 2″ 3 3/4″, scrap for Stitched Shape Oval
Basic Black 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″

I hope this helps you if you want to recreate this card! I had a lot of fun making it!

Are you ready for card #2? I am using the Petal Palette stamp set that will be coming out in January! I love how this card came out!
The front uses the Beautiful flowers that I used the Blender Pens to color. If you look close you can see the dots that I used that remind me of Baby’s Breath flowers, behind the flowers! I used Smoky Slate stamped off for these. This was fun to make and I will be doing this in class this month!
Here is the inside:
I love how this stamp has shades in the leaves and I didn’t have to do anything buy ink and stamp! This will make a great Valentines card for one of your couple friends! Or you can use it as a Wedding Card and color the flowers to match the colors of the Wedding!

Today I am sharing with you a couple of cards that I made for my YouTube Channel. I have a very simple fold but the cards are stunning! You can see the video here!
While I was at OnStage in Salt Lake City in UT I got to see first hand cards that were made using this set!! I fell in LOVE!
Here is the front of my card:
The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is called Myths & Magic, it is embossed and GORGEOUS!! ON the Video you can see how shiny and beautiful they are!
Here it is partially open:
I embossed the ‘sparkles’ on the side using Silver embossing powder.
Here is this card open all the way, isn’t it pretty!!?
I used Stampin’ Blends, and just love this card so much!!
Now, here is the other card, same design, different stamps!
I used the Myths & Magic Washi Tape on the side, isn’t it gorgeous!?
I am already planning on ordering MORE of this DSP and Washi Tape!

It’s been a while since I was last here! Sorry, life got a bit busy. I had my trip to Salt Lake City Utah for Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage event, and WOW I had so much fun! I met up with my SU! Besties and we room together every time!
I came home and 4 days later we went to Vero Beach for a much needed break! It was so nice to sit and read on the beach!! I was under the umbrella and the only thing that would have totally made it better was to have a Beach Boy bring me some drinks! hahaha
Now I am home and I jumped right back in to my ‘work’. I put the apostrophes there because I have so much fun creating it is sometimes hard to remember that I get PAID! Love my job, if you want to join my team, just let me know!
On to the Tarnished Foil technique, thanks to my Besties Carol and Hetty for telling me all about it! I HAD to come home and try my hand at it!
Aren’t they stunning?!! This is a fun and easy technique and no two are alike! I Love stacking my ribbons, can you see it? I ‘colored’ my gold edged ribbon with the Bronze Stampin’ Blends so it would go with my project and stacked it with the copper ribbon! Go check out my video for all the dimensions.
I hope if you live in the States you choose me as your demonstrator! IF you purchase from me, I will send you one of my cards that I use for my videos! Shop Now!
As always, the items used for this post are listed below, each picture will link you to my OnLine Store! I DO have some SAB items for a sneak peek, can’t list them below, but the one I used is called Happy Wishes, and I KNOW you will want it as much as I did!
I’m back to my ‘work’, I am making my Christmas cards, I’ll share those with you next time!!

I was spending time on YouTube the other day and found this great idea from Dawn, which you can see here. I loved the idea, but didn’t have her Halloween stamps, even though I LOVE Halloween (need to have new ideas every year for scrapbooking!). So, I DID have the Christmas stamps from Stampin’ Up! called Father Christmas (I used EVERY stamp!, WooHoo) and Nature Sings. These Stamp sets are PERFECT for my idea!
When do you use every stamp from a stamp set on ONE project? I did for this one! Not sure WHY I am proud of this, but I am. 😉
Here is the project closed:
Partially open:
And now all the way open!:
Isn’t this pretty!? What I love is other than the front where I colored, there isn’t anything else that needs that much attention! I DID sponge all the Vanilla pieces but I pretty much sponge everything so this wasn’t a big deal to me.
When I showed this around, I got so many Ooooooh’s and Aaaaaaaah’s! LOVE when that happens! Now the question: Who do I send this to?
The next question is what will be my technique for NEXT Tuesday?! Any suggestions? I have a great idea, not sure if I will go with that idea or one YOU give me!

I hope you like this technique, I would love to see a ‘story’ you would like to create using this Fancy Fold!
Until next time!
