Time again for my monthly demonstrator swap cards – May was for all things new – new catalogs and new Online Exclusives.

The first card from Vickie G. starts with a Crumb Cake base embossed with the SO Swirly embossing folder. The Perennial Postage die creates a frame that encircles the focal point of multi colored background of Fresh Freesia, Darling Duckling, Cajun Craze and Strawberry Slush. The flowers from the Gallery Blooms stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored petals with the Wink of Stella.

Carol S’s swap card features the Florals in Bloom Suite. On a Secret Sea cardstock base, a small piece of DSP on the left hand side. The right side filled with stamped flowers and dies.
I love the word dies in this set! Such a bright, Spring card!
Lyn L’s swap card uses the Thoughtful Journeys DSP as the background and she stamped directly onto the DSP with the Peaceful Piers stamp set.
She created a fun surprise pop up on the inside of the card!
Lori V’s swap card features the Feathered Fun reversible stamp set embossed in White embossing powder and colored with Stampin’ Blends markers. She created the sparkly Azure Afternoon paper by painting Wink Of Stella directly onto the colored cardstock to add the extra slash of glitter!
This whimsical swap card using the new Along These Lines stamp set from the new 2025-2026 Annual catalog on Cloud Cover cardstock card base. She used the DSP from the Boho Vibes Suite Collection and a whimsical ribbon treatment along the middle of the DSP strip.
The next swap card was made by Maria W and inspired by a card done on Susancampfield.com, this gorgeous Beautiful Gallery Suite card is set on Basic Beige cardstock with Timid Tiger accents. I love the way the frame and the embossing folders line up – such a great detail!
The next swap card is a lovely z fold card featuring the Sunrise Sailing bundle by Robin C.
The extended Z fold features the hybrid embossing folder images of water in Misty Moonlight cardstock and the sky and clouds in the Cloud Cover cardstock, the boat in stamped in Misty Moonlight on Petunia Pop cardstock. There is some sweet stamping ont he inside and back of the card as well!
Veronica S’s swap card uses the beautiful dies from the Impressions Abloom Suite and this is a suite I do not owe and one of the bonuses of participating in Demonstrator swaps – getting beautiful samples from sets you do not have.
This lovely clean pallette of black and white with pops of Coastal Cabana and Strawberry Slush makes for a great card.
Hoping this month’s swap inspiration motivated you to get creating your own artwork – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

floral in bloom criss cross card

floral in bloom criss cross card

by | May 23, 2025 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, fun fold, In Colors, new catalog, techniques

This criss cross card is an easy fun fold and the Floral in Bloom Suite is the perfect set of products for this fun canvas.

Measurements:
BASE: Strawberry Slush CS: (2) 4 1/4″ x 11″
scraps for dies
DSP: (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
scraps for dies

Score the Strawberry Slush CS at 5 1/2″ and cut from the middle score line top edge to the bottom corner on both pieces.
Cut a 1/4″ off of only one of the stright sides opposite the diagonal cut.
Adhere the two pieces of cardstock together with the piece that is 1/4″ shorter on the inside with the top and bottom and score lines all lined up!
Cut the 2 DSP layers in half diagonally and then paying attention to the direction of the pattern
cut the layers that will match up with the triangles on the outside of the card 1/4″ off both straight sides.
I stamped the inside sentiment in Strawberry Slush ink onto the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer make sure it is lower than the criss cross so it is hidden when the card is closed.
I adhered one of the 1/4″ DSP discards below the sentiment.
Adhere the diagional DSP pieces. to the outside of the diagonal criss cross panels of the card.
I die cut the Large Flower from the Pretty Florals dies and the Bloom word die from the Sweet Blooms die set in Strawberry Slush cardstock and die cut the word matte from the Sweet Blooms dies and the inside detail of the flower from the Pretty Florals dies in Basic White.
I adhered the white inside flower detail to the large flower in strawberry slush and adhered it to the outside diagonal card panel so it lined up where the criss cross intersects.
I adhered the white word matte below the flower.
I adhered the Strawberry Slush cardstock word die onto the Basic White matte.
I adhered the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls to the outside of the card to finish it off!
Try this fun and easy fun fold and go create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!
