This card map challenge helps you look at your supplies in a new way

This week's Paper Craft Crew card map challenge is simple. And simple is good at times. I think this map helps you look at your supplies in a new way.

 

You have two rectangles, one circle and some kind of shape in the middle. So dive into your craft room and see what you can come up with - perhaps supplies you have not used in a while? 

Here's what I chose to use the following for my card.

Simply Elegant designer series paper

Tasteful Touches stamp set:

To make a coordinating bottom layer I used a solid color: Basic Gray. But it looked too plain so I used Versamark and stamp an image randomly over this layer. This is the perfect way to add a little pizzaz to a plain layer. 

Add a bit of shiny ribbon, three silver petals and a die cut phase and you end up with this pretty card:

This is a beautiful fun fold card idea you need to learn how to make

Hi fellow crafters! Today I am going to show you how to create a fun fold card with a nice surprise inside. I will be using the Pierced Blooms dies and Color & Contour stamp set. Once you learn how to make this fun fold card, you can adapt it for a variety of occasions.

 

 

I think the Pierced Blooms dies are amazing. You can die cut flowers in several sizes, plus leaves and centres to go with them. I love the stitching details on every die. Not only are they great for cards but also for scrapbook pages, and other paper crafts.  

 

The Color & Contour set has lovely phrases in such a pretty font. The photo above also shows the dies that you can bundle with the stamp set and get a 10% savings (bonus!).

Try this fun tic tac toe challenge for your next card design

I think tic tac toe boards are so much fun to use for card map challenges. So of course I was delighted to see this week's Paper Craft Crew post: 

Sometimes I mull and fret over which row or column to choose. But this week I didn't hesitate. After glancing over the board I chose: Ribbon, Punch and Floral. 

I chose my Daisy punch - both a flower AND a punch (feeling pretty proud of that brainwave). 

I know that I wanted to use Bumblebee for my card base - because it matches my Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon. I am so excited that this ribbon is NOT retiring - yay!

And then I decided to use a sheet of the Dandy Garden designer paper - this is such a fun, colorful pack of paper.

I love the designs and colors and picked a coordinating design for my card. If you love this paper too - remember that it is retiring so you want to order it this week! (Click on the paper photo to head over to my online store)

See how to use the Quiet Meadow stamp set to create a beautiful Mother's Day card

The moment I spotted the Quiet Meadow bundle on the new catalog preorder list I knew I had to have it. This is one of the benefits of joining Stampin' Up! - you get to preorder from our new catalogs a month before anyone else. The idea is to play with new products and to make samples to share with you so that when you get your new catalog you have some fun card samples to provide you with inspiration. 

Here's what you need to make the card below: 

Stamp Sets: Quite Meadow #155082 (bundle to save 10% #155847); Garden Wishes (154408); Itty Bitty Greetings (151331)

Stampin' Write Markers: 2021-23 (155639) 

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black 

Paper and cutting dimensions:        

Whisper White: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"           

Misc: In Color Jewels (155572); Stampin' Dimensionals; Paper Trimmer (152392)

How to create beautiful patterns using your left over paper strips

Hi fellow crafters! Are you ready for another idea for using up your left over paper strips! Then this is video is for you.

I am going to show you how to create a beautiful paper pattern element for your cards that uses strips of card stock in a really fun way.  Are you ready to learn how?

 

I know we both have been having fun creating projects that use up our left over paper scraps and strips. Your request has pushed me to find several different ways to share with you. This project is quite simple but it does require the following two essentials which will make this project a breeze:

 

Adhesive Sheets:

 

 

Paper Trimmer:

 

 

The rest of the choices are up to you:

 

• color combination of your paper scraps
• phrase for the occasion you need
• punch or die-cut

I decided that I would create a thank you card, using a phrase from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set. I don't have the punch because I won the stamp set at a Stampin' Up! event last year. (not sure you need the punch....)

 

 

Stamp Set: Sweet Ice Cream #154456

 

Ink: Pacific Point

 

Paper and cutting dimensions: 

        Bermuda Bay: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"         4 1/2" x 1/4" 
        Whisper White: 3" square; 3" x 2"

        Gorgeous Grape: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        Melon Mambo: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        Pacific Point: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        Basic Black: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        Pumpkin Pie: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        Bumblebee: 4 1/2" x 1/4"

        

Misc: Paper trimmer #152392; Adhesive Sheets #152334; Tailored Tag punch #145667; Multipurpose Liquid Glue #154974, Silicone Craft Sheet; Stampin' Dimensionals 

 

Here's this week's paper strip card idea - I hope you will give it a try. I have included a list of supplies under the card along with a video showing you how to create the paper strip element:

 

 

Thanks for watching my video - and don't forget to leave me a comment to leave your opinion! 

Want another fun idea for using up your leftover paper strips?

Hi fellow crafters! I am hearing that you want a second idea for those left over paper strips! This this video is for you.

I am going to show you another fun technique that will help you use up lots of strips of paper in a really fun way.  Are you ready to learn how?

 

Here are a few decisions to make in order to create today's card:

 

Choose five coordinating colors from your left-over paper. I chose: Bumblebee, Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and Gorgeous Grape. You don't have to use 5 colors; you can use less. 

 

Choose an image to diecut - I used two different die packs - Pierced Blooms:

 

 

And I chose Floral Gallery, which is part of the Art Gallery bundle:

 

 

You can purchase the dies separately but I am not sure why you would want to!

 

There is one other essential to make this project super easy (and less sticky) - Adhesive sheets!

 

 

Once you have this small number of items ready to do, then you can create cards like this one!

 

 

Here's another view:

Do you know the beautiful drapery card technique?

Today's Sweet Ice Cream thank you card features the Drapery technique, using the new Paper Blooms designer series paper. This paper folding technique is sometimes called the Curtain technique - it's fun and easy, so give it a try!

To make my card I used a phrase from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set. This set comes bundled with the punch or you can purchase it separately.

For the Drapery technique, I chose a sheet of the new Paper Blooms paper - this pack is FREE with a $50 (€60) purchase at my online store - but only until 28 February, when Sale-a-bration ends. Click here to learn more and to download the Sale-a-Bration catalog for free.

What autumn adventure would you create for this challenge

This week's Paper Craft Crew challenge is super fun - you get you create your own Autumn Adventure!

Normally challenges like this intimidate me and I stall out trying to figure out what to do. But not this week. I immediately decided to use the My Meadow set to create an autumn scene. 

 

I chose this set because it is perfect for creating soft and lovely outdoor scene with its images. As per usual, I started with my paper choice and colors. I love the Plaid Tidings paper pack and chose a strip that had colors that I consider to work well with this autumn themed challenge:

I chose a pattern that had Cajun Craze in it - that seemed a perfect color for my card base. Then the rest was pretty easy. I used my Stampin' Write markers to create my wheelbarrow image, and matched colors where possible to the paper. I chose to make my card a thank you so that I can mail it to a customer who placed an order at my online store. But you can certainly change the phrase to match an occasion you have coming up soon. 

Here's my challenge card - what do you think?

Why not look through your sets and see what Autumn Adventure card idea you can create using the supplies you have on hand. If you want to see what the other crew members created, click here to head on over to the Paper Craft Crew site. 

You need see how this amazing product adds sparkle and shine

Sometimes the smallest, inexpensive product can add that perfect final touch to a card, can't it? For example, the Celebrate Sunflowers card below is colorful, has texture and really draws the eye. 

But what you cannot see is the sparkle and shine added by the Wink of Stella. 

Wink of Stella is basically a 'Glitter brush' for accenting stamped images. The brush tip produces thick and thin lines, so you can  add a touch of sparkle and shine or just a little bit - where you need it to be! And this product can also be used on scrapbook pages because it is acid free and of archival quality. And although the photo doesn't properly show it, the liquid dries clear, leaving the sparkle to shine. 

This Celebrate Sunflowers card uses Wink of Stella to the sunflower and leaves. I love this bundle because it has bold images and is the perfect complement for the fall season that is coming our way. 

The font and sentiments are lovely are they? 

See full instructions below!

The best color combinations for beautiful beach projects

This week our weather has been over the top {{HOT}} which makes me crave the beach. But right now there are too many people at the beach every day and I am a bit nervous hanging about a bunch of strangers when we are supposed to be keeping our distance from each other. 

So I have been creating a lot of beach-themed cards, like the one I posted on Wednesday. And that made me think that maybe you might be in a beach mood too. 

When creating beach projects, there are certain color combinations I would recommend:

Combination #1

These three I choose for basic beach elements: sky/water, sand and plants/trees. Sahara Sand, Old Olive and Balmy Blue are my most common go-to colors for this kind of theme. 

 

Combination #2

This set of colors are darker in tone. I love Crumb Cake with Soft Suede - think beach sand with palm tree trunks. Pacific Point is quite a vivid blue so use it sparingly, like on the lighthouse below. You can also use it to lightly sponge the sky - but only with a tiny bit of ink on your sponge:

Combination #3

This set of three colors created a more pastel look for beach cards. I love the soft look of this combo:

What are your top colors for beach cards or projects - leave me a comment to let me know - I might give your combo a try on my next beach card. Why not try your combo and make a card today too!

 

Which three did I choose for this challenge?

It's time for another fun Paper Craft Crew challenge and this week is it a tic tac toe! Can you figure out which three I chose for this challenge? 

 

I recently earned the Sending Sunshine stamp set for free (yay!) and have been wanting to use it. Here's what Stampin' Up! writes about this set: Inhale, exhale, then share the tranquility of the summer-themed Sending Sunshine set with someone you love. Create visual depth by stamping the large water image in the lightest color of ink. Then stamp the smaller water image in a darker color.

I love the cards I see online and it is outside my comfort zone. Although I love making cards I struggle with artistic scenes so I chose this set for this week's challenge to stretch a bit artistically speaking. 

Sending Sunshine Photopolymer Stamp Set
$17.00

 

 

 

 

 

I decided to create my scene on a die-cut shape as it lessened the amount of white I would have to cover and add an interesting visual detail to the card. I chose the Stitched Nested Labels dies:

Stitched Nested Labels Dies
$35.00

 

 

Also quite unusual for me, I die-cut my Whisper White shape first and then did my stamped and sponged scene. I then embossed my Pool Party card base for added interest. 

I have to confess: I LOVE my card! 

 

Rather than tell you which row/column I chose, can you figure out which three I chose for this challenge?

Are you going to give our challenge a try? Which row/column would you choose? If you want to see what the other crew members made for this week's challenge, click here.
