NEW 2024-2026 Colours! Coast to Coast Creators May Blog Hop

  

Welcome to our May Coast to Coast Creators Blog Hop! This month we are highlighting our brand new colours from our 2024 Annual Catalogue, which I absolutely love! My card features all five new 2024-2026 "In Colors"--Shy Shamrock, Pretty in Pink, Summer Splash, Petunia Pop, and Peach Pie. I also used our Spotlight in Nature Bundle (stamp set and dies) to stamp the sentiment and die cut the gorgeous label.

This card shows all five of our new 2024-2026 "In Colors"!

I cut 1" strips of cardstock and Designer Series Paper (2024-2026 In Color 6" x 6" DSP), and then adhered them to a 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" layer of Pretty Peacock cardstock, leaving a little less than 1/8" between each strip. After I trimmed the excess pieces, I embossed the whole layer with our new So Swirly Embossing Folder. I really like the look of the pieced and embossed layer!

You can see the So Swirly embossing in this photo.

I added the resulting card front onto a Pretty Peacock card base, and then added five 2024-2026 In Color Gems--one of each colour--to the corresponding strips!

I'd love it if you would leave a comment below, if you have a moment. 😊 Be sure to check out my friends' beautiful creations showcasing our new colours in the blog hop below!!

Waves of Inspiration/Oceanfront Fun-Fold Thank You Card

I like this type of fun-fold card--it's unique!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! Thanks for stopping by!

First of all, this card is not as complicated as it seems! It's actually quite easy to make! If it looks familiar, it's because this is an updated version of one I designed quite a while ago (it's been made with current--for now!--products). I received a lovely email from a fellow Canadian demonstrator, wanting to make a video on how to make this card--she had seen my card on Pinterest. This request is what got me started making YouTube videos last March! There's a link to the YouTube tutorial for this card below (where you'll also find a free printable tutorial).

This is the card when it's closed--it fits into a regular envelope.

Secondly, these gorgeous stamp sets are retiring at the end of April, 2024. 😢 Our new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue launches May 1st, and to make room for some fabulous new products, there are a lot that will be retiring. I am really sad to be losing the Waves of Inspiration stamp set, Waves Dies, our Oceanfront stamp set, and Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels! These have been favourites of mine!


Thirdly, some of the products I used to make this card are on sale!! Woohoo!! The Stargazing Designer Series Paper is 40% off ($10.20), the Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels are 40% off ($6.15), and the Waves Dies are 50% off ($23.50)!! Shopping links are below. Please note that the prices shown below are the original prices. These products are available only while supplies last, or until April 3, 2024. 

Looking at the card from the top

So although this card may look complicated, it's actually pretty simple to make! It takes a bit of time, but is so worth it for that special someone! These beautiful blended backgrounds are so easy to create, and I think they make beautiful cards. I hope that you agree!😊 Shopping links are below. Join one of my classes, and I'll help you make cards like this!  


Check out my YouTube tutorial for this card below (and find a link for a free, printable tutorial there, as well)! I'd love it if you have time to write a comment below!
