more color mondays – blueberry bushel, berry burst and granny apple green

by nataliegramleystamps | Nov 20, 2023 | card samples, color challenge, Designer Series Paper, fun fold, online exclusives, stamps ink paper, techniques

Today’s More Color Monday color challenge uses Blueberry Bushel, Berry Burst and Granny Apple Green! Such bright and happy colors…I am using the Meandering Meadow Suite of products and creating a card on card fun fold.
Follow along for the tutorial!

Measurements:
BASE: Blueberry Bushel 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Smaller card: 3″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
DSP: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Basic white layers: (2) 2 7/8″ x 4 1/8″
Berry Burst layer: 2 3/4″ x 4″
Granny Apple Green layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″
diagonally cut

Cut the base card from the top diagonal line to the outside left bottom edge.

Cut the DSP layer in half diagonally.

Score the 3″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Blueberry Bushel at 4 1/4″. Fold on the score line.
Adhere one of the Basic White layers inside the smaller card.
Stamp in Blueberry Bushel ink the Happy Birthday from the Garden Meadow stamp set.
Stamp the flower basket at the bottom right hand corner in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

Color the flowers in Light and Dark Blueberry Bushel Stampin’ Blends.
Color the basket in Light and Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.
Color the leaves in Light and Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends.

Adhere the top DSP to the upper inside of the card base.

Close the front diagonal flap and adhere the bottom diagonal DSP piece to the outside flap.

Adhere the smaller card to the center of the inside of the base card – the front of the smaller card will hang over the bottom flap of the outside card.

Adhere the Berry Burst layer to the upper inside of the card and stamp the boots in Berry Burst ink.
Adhere the diagonal Granny Apple Green cardstock to the inside of the front flap and stamp the water can in Granny Apple Green ink to the lower right hand corner of this layer.

Stamp the word hello three times up the side of the last Basic White layer and add the last piece of DSP to the right hand side.
Adhere this layer to the outside of the smaller card.

Add three embellishments from the Tinsel Gems four pack to the words and your card on card fun fold is complete!

I love this paper – grab some up before it is all gone! Now go create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

meandering meadow tall z-fold card

by nataliegramleystamps | Nov 17, 2023 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, fun fold, online exclusives, product reviews, stamps ink paper, techniques

This Tall Z FOld is an easy fun fold to show off large sheets of gorgeous Designer Series Paper like the collection in the Meandering Meadows suite!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White (2) 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Layer: Blueberry Bushel 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
DSP: (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″
Mechanism: 3″ x 11″ scored at 2″ and 6 1/2″
Inside White Layer: 2 7/8″ x 6 3/8″

Choose 2 designs of DSP from the Meandering Meadows paper pack. Cut each to 4″ x 5 1/4″.

Adhere the DSP to the Blueberry Bushel layer and those to the Basic White Layer.

Cut the Z Fold mechanism out of BlueBerry Bushel cardstock to 3″ x 11″. Score at 2″ and 6 1/2″ and fold into a Z.
Adhere the long side with the fold on the top to the center of the 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ triple layered base that you want for the bottom (save the nicer scene for the top layer, and it may be hard to choose because all of these papers are so pretty!)
Adhere the 2″ panel to the top layer making sure that the bottom and top layers match on all sides.

Adhere the inside white layer to the inside mechanism panel. Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment and the flower image onto the white layer.

I added embellishments to the top layer but nothing else to let the beauty of the DSP shine all on it’s own!

This suite is now available in the online exclusives section of my Stampin’ Up! website!

Stamp something pretty today – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

meandering meadow window card

by nataliegramleystamps | Nov 15, 2023 | card samples, Designer Series Paper, embossing folders, stamps ink paper

There is a new online exclusive release and the Meandering Meadow Suite is gorgeous.
The suite contains the Meandering Meadow bundle, stamp set and coordinating die set, a beautiful Designer Series paper 6″ x 6″ paper set, adhesive-backed dragonflies and birds, and Pecan Pie center stripe ribbon.

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
Layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″ die cut and embossed
scrap: 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
DSP: 3 1/2″ x 5″

The Designer Series Paper is a set of 12 double sided images of beautiful meadows on one side and the B side contains more solid colored images. These make a beautiful birthday card and Happy Birthday to my mother!

I cut the Designer Series Paper to 3 1/2″ x 5″.

Cut the window die out of the center of the Basic White layer.

I embossed the die cut layer in the 3D Exposed Brick embossing folder.

Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment in Berry Burst ink on a 1/2″ strip.

Adhere the DSP behind the window. Place Stampin’ Dimensionals under the DSP and place the layer on the card base.

Adhere the sentiment strip on top of the window. Adhere three adhesive-backed sequins trio embellishments in Berry Burst.

These papers are so fabulous and beautiful, and the window die makes a perfect setting for this image.

Go create some art work of your very own – one stamp at a time.

Happy Stampin’

offset gate fold card with new online exclusive products

by nataliegramleystamps | Oct 18, 2023 | card samples, fun fold, online exclusives, stamps ink paper, Uncategorized

There are some new online exclusive products being released on November 7th that demonstrators were able to pre-order and one of the new bundles is called Garden Meadow! The paper is scenic and gorgeous and I wanted to preview it with a fun fold that would utilize as much of it as I could!

Measurements:
Base: Blueberry Bushel 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Basic White layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″ for inside
DSP 6″ x 6″ cut at 5 1/4″
then cut at 1 1/4″, 2 1/2″

Score the base cardstock at 1 1/2″ and 5 3/4″
Fold Inward.

Adhere the Basic White layer in the center of the inside of the card.

Cut 3/4″ off the 6″ x 6″ piece of Meandering Garden DSP at the bottom to make the piece 5 1/4″. then looking at the picture cut 1 1/4″ and 2 1/2″ off the 6″ side.

This is how I divided my DSP, I wanted to use the meandering path as a focal point so I cut from the right side of the DSP.

Adhere the 1 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of DSP to the smaller panel on the left. Adhere the 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ piece of DSP to the larger panel on the left side of the offset gatefold.

This bundle comes with a gorgeous set of new dies that include a gate and an arch shaped opening among other beautiful dies. I cut the gate from Basic Gray cardstock and adhered it to the bottom on either side of the opening.

The bottle you see in the picture is a fine tip glue bottle that I purchased from Amazon I love this precision tip applicator and I refill the bottles with our Multi Purpose liquid glue!

If you would like the link contact me and I can direct you were to buy it!

I stamped a greeting on the outside small panel as well as an inside the card greeting on the middle panel along with the image of the watering can in Basic Gray ink. I also added the additional scenic panel on the inside right panel of the card – couldn’t waste such pretty paper!

I flipped over the 3/4″ piece I cut off the bottom of the DSP in the beginning and added it to the left hand panel. The itty bitty piece of cardstock at the bottom of the card is the only waste I had from that 6″ x 6″ DSP piece!

I added to flat brass birds from the new embellishments from this online exclusive suite called Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds!

Since these items are not yet available in the online store for customers you can come back on November 7th and see the links to these products below then!

I will be highlighted some of these products in the upcoming weeks so stay tuned for more product reveals!

Now go and create some art of your very own – maybe an offset gate fold like this card with the items you have in your craft room! One stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
Natalie
