Fresh As A Daisy ~ 7 Unique Cards From Just One Sheet of Designer Paper!

The New 2023 - 2024 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog is here and it's filled with lots of amazing products! The Fresh As A Daisy Suite can be found on page 110 and is one of my favorites! Stampin' Up! makes creating so easy when the designer paper, embellishments, dies and stamp sets all coordinate together. Every sheet in the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper is beautiful but one in particular stands out as it has panels that can be cut to create individual cards. I created a series of videos showing how to create 7 unique cards, 5 of them are special folds - my favorite type of card!

In the first video, I create the cards sharing all the measurements and showing how they go together.

In the second video, I add stamps, inks and embellishments so you can see how 6 of the cards were finished. Each one holds a special place in my heart!

Due to technical difficulties, Ugh, I had to create a third video so you could see the 7th card finished. It was my favorite card since it is a Seam Binding Card that doubles as a gift card holder.

With my videos and the Fresh As A Daisy Suite Collection you too will be creating many beautiful cards. Want to purchase your own Fresh as A Daisy Suite Collection?

Dainty Delight ~ Elegant Borders Dies Card

I love it when two great Stampin' up! products come together! I paired the Dainty Delight Bundle from page 55 of the January - April Mini Catalog along with the Online Exclusive Elegant Borders Dies to create this beautiful card.

The online Exclusive products are not featured in any catalog and can only be seen online. You can see all of the Online Exclusive products by clicking Here!

I fell in love with the Elegant Borders Dies as soon as I saw them. What a great way to dress up any project!

On my card I used Petal Pink, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. Three amazing colors that go together perfectly. With the New 2023 - 2024 Annual catalog, Stampin' Up! will have a color renovation where current colors will be leaving us and some old favorites will return. I won't know what these colors are until the end of the month so please stock up on your favorite cardstocks, inks and ink refills now! Once they're gone, they are  . . . well, Gone! So don't miss out!

Although I give you the dimensions in the video, here is a quick reference of the dimensions and colors I used.

He Is Risen Easter Card

To me, Easter is celebrating our Risen Lord as He really is the Reason for the Season! The Rejoice In Him Stamp Set on page 54 of the January - April Mini Catalog, is a great set for making Easter cards. I paired it with the Fancy Flora 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper as the colors are perfect for the spring season. When I created the picture of Jesus I wanted a softer look so I actually stamped Him on Cardstock Vellum with Stazon Ink and colored Him from behind with my Stampin' Blends. In the video, I compare the Cardstock Vellum with coloring on Basic White Cardstock so you can see the difference.

Although I give you all the dimensions in my video, below is a quick reference of the dimensions and cardstock colors for you to see.

Hello, Irresistible ~ Peaceful Moments Card

Stampin' Up! just released New Online Exclusive Products and you can see them Here.

We already have so many awesome existing products so I decided to combine the old with the new and I simply love this card! I used the Hello, Irresistible 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper and the Peaceful Moments stamp set. The Poppy Moments, Stylish Shapes and Split Card Textures dies all played a vital role in making this card so beautiful.

You can see how I created this card on my video below. I even share a great tip on saving cardstock! The more you save the more you can create!

For my card, I used the Pretty Peacock cardstock. It is an old In Color that will be returning when the New 2023-2024 Annual catalog is released on May 2nd! Stampin' Up! is having a color renovation so we will be losing some of our current favorite colors to make room for some new and returning colors! PLEASE stock up on all your favorite cardstocks, inks and refills now! Once a color is retired and sells out it will no longer be available. A complete list of all items retiring will be released on March 29th so I will keep you posted, but I suggest you don't wait until then. Click the Shop Now button to get started.
