Carol S’s swap card features two contrasting In Colors that look great together – Crisp Cantaloupe and Peaceful Pine and truthfully this is one of the reasons I love swapping together – I would have never thought to combine these two colors – but they look amazing!

more color mondays – pool party, flirty flamingo and lemon lolly sneak peak

more color mondays – pool party, flirty flamingo and lemon lolly sneak peak

Oh so many fun new things coming around the corner! We are going to three total catalogs a year no more mini catalogs and lots of fun stuff in this first new catalog!

We are introducing new impressions dies and plate to have embossing make even more of an impact and WOW!

This More Color Mondays submission features a sneak peak at some of the awesome new products we will be featuring with this new catalog!

Susan Campfield, a fellow demonstrator in my side line hit her million dollars in sales this past sales year and got a design a new stamp set for part of her million dollar celebration! The Phrases and Frames came out of those design meetings she wanted a versatile sentiment set and Stampin’ Up! was looking for a set like that to introduce one of their newest products the Impressions Plate! Lucky Her that she gets to introduce this product with her million dollar bundle!

This is an easel card which is an adaptation of the ones that she demonstrated at OnStage a few weeks ago using her million dollar bundle plus the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series paper.

Measurements:
BASE: Pool Party CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″ and 2 1/8″, scrap for oval die
Lemon Lolly CS: (2) 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
DSP: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Take the Lemon Lolly CS layers and die cut 2 of the largest frame from the Phrases and Frames Dies.

Leave the paper die cut in the metal die and turn cut side up.

Make an Impression sandwich with the BASE Plate #1, the Thin Die Adapter #2 then place the die cut side up and lay the new Impressions Plate on top, add the #4 Embossing Plate and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.

This puffs out the embossing making the design up out or stand out and is more defined.
Using the inside scrap from one of the die cuts in Lemon Lolly run the two smallest dies from the Phrases and Frames die set through the cutting setting with #1, #2 and two cutting plates #3s.
Run the larger frame of the two dies through the Impressions setting with #1, #2 then the die and paper cut side up, the Impressions Plate and then #4.
Cut the DSP to 3 3/8 X 4 3/4″.
Save the cut pieces.

Adhere the 3 3/8″ piece to a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock of 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″.
This will show when the card is in easel mode for a finished backside.

Place Stampin’ Seal + around the backside of the perimeter of the large frame.
Place the DSP and Flirty Flamingo l;ayer, DSP side up on the taped side of the frame.
Place Stampin’ Seal + and the backside of the second frame and place over the DSP layer matching up the outside edges of the frames so they match. This essentially seals the DSP inside two frames back to back that the frames are pretty sides outward.
Cut another second smallest frame out of Pool Party and just use the inside oval for the sentiment.

Stamp the Happy Anniversary wording from the Phrases and Frames sentiment set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Adhere to the left side of the DSP inside the larger frame. Pop up the Lemon Lolly frame around the wording.

Open the card base to the inside and stamp the complimentary inside sentiment for the Anniversary in Tuxedo Black Memento ink in the center of the inside of the card base.
Take the DSP piece that is 5 1/4″ in length and adhere to the bottom of the inside of the card base below the inside sentiment.
Stamp the sending you hugs in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the smallest oval from the Phrases and Frames die set.
Pop up the small oval on Stampin’ Dimensionals and place in the center of the DSP. This will be the stopper for the easel mechanism.
Adhere the lower half of the frame layer to the outmost panel of the card front.
Pop out a butterfly from the upcoming Floral Flight Accents – these are thick precut dies perfect for easy card making or accents in scrapbooking!

Adhere the frame layer to the right and below the sentiment frame.

Apply three Flirty Falmingo embellishments from the Array of Dots from the Beautiful Ordinary Life Suite of products to the card front.
If you bend the card at the score line this will create an easel effect and the card front will slide to the little oval stopper and rest as an easel for display!
This is what the card looks like from the side in the easel form! So much fun – I love easel cards they are impressive and easy and these new impressions dies have such great detail!

Try an easel card today and go create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!
