Velvet Meadows Pop-Up Z-Fold Card

by

This is the final card featuring the Velvet Meadows Designer Series Paper. It starts like any other z-fold card, but another layers is added in the middle by using a little pop up piece. The Sweet Words & Label dies are a beautiful die cut to use for the layers. The Lily of the Valley dies finish the decorations with the beautiful stems of flowers added to the front.

Sneak Peak July Online Exclusives

Beginning July 1, 2026, a brand-new collection of Online Exclusive products will be available from Stampin’ Up!® Be sure to check back on June 26, 2026, when I will post the complete list of products that will be available to order.

The cards below feature the new Spooktacular 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. This paper pack contains 12 sheets each of the four designs used on the cards below, making it perfect for creating multiple cards quickly and easily.

The Web of Fun Dies were used to create the sentiments and decorative accents. All six cards shown were made using just four sheets from the DSP pack. Notice that the two Happy Halloween cards were created using both the positive and negative pieces from the die-cut sentiment. This simple technique allows you to create twice as many cards with half the die cutting. If you decide to use the negative image, be sure to save the small center pieces from some of the letters.

The Spooktacular DSP pack definitely lends itself to quick and easy card making, especially when you need to create a stack of Halloween cards in a short amount of time.

Delicate Dreams Folding Screen Card

This week’s card is designed to look like a vintage room screen, complete with a floating sentiment piece that pops out when the card is opened — yet folds flat to fit perfectly inside a standard A2 envelope.

Airplane Swiper Pop Up Card

by

This week’s card is a swiper card. The airplane pops out of the top of the card in a swiper type motion. It is an amazingly simple technique. The z-folds of the card base actually pull the swiper piece from the inside of the card when you open it. I will admit that you need to be careful when folding the card back because the airplane is so large it does like to get stuck. Simple solution: you just poke it with your finger to make it go back inside the card when folding. Below you will fine the instruction sheet which will help you make your own swiper card.

August 16, 2024 Zoom Card Class

Friday, August 16, 2024 at 7pm  via zoom

RSVP by August 2, 2024

Fee: $24 plus $5.50 Shipping & Handling

In this class we will make a total of 8 cards, 2 of each design pictured above. There are a lot of small die cuts in several of these cards and while none of the cards are tricky, the gluing will be a little tedious. The birdhouse is the trickiest card because it involves using paper hinges to make the birdhouse float above the card. This is not a tricky technique but does require putting the pieces in a specific order to achieve the floating look. We of course will take each card step by step during class to be successful.

No stamped images are included in the kit, you must have your own stamps and ink to complete these cards. You must also have your own adhesive and Stampin’ Dimensionals are optional but I did use some for these cards. Stampin’ Up Inks Used: Misty Moonlight, Pecan Pie, & Moody Mauve
