Last week I said I would post the vertical or portrait version of last week’s card, but then I realized I’ve already posted it. So click here if you would like to make the portrait version of last week’s fun fold card.

This week’s card uses Flight and Airy Designer Series Paper which is a free designer series paper pack that you will be able to earn during Sale-A-Bration starting January 4, 2024. The die cuts used for this card are from some of the new die cut sets in the new mini catalog which will be available starting on January 4, 2024. The merchandise that is available now will be listed in the image chart below, but I will list the other products separately and they will be available starting in January.

What I love about this week’s card is how super easy it is to make and because of the beauty of the new Flight and Airy DSP . You don’t even need to put a sentiment on it. All the materials are listed in the free PDF file below along with the measurements. This is a beautiful card for any occasion and has me thinking of Spring before we even get hit hard with winter.

Stamping Hint: One great feature of the photopolymer stamps is that they will bend. The sentiment I used on the curved banner was not designed in a curve. It was a perfectly straight sentiment, but since I wanted to put it on a curved banner die cut… I simply placed the sentiment onto the acrylic block and gently forced it into a curve to match the die cut. Once I stamped it and pulled it off the block the stamp went back to its original shape. Note that I didn’t have to bend it a lot to get it to fit onto the diecut and I wouldn’t leave it on the block for long that way. I simply put the stamp on the block, stamped the sentiment, cleaned it and took it off the block.

NOTE: This is a 3 1/2″ x 5″ note card, not my usual A2 size card.

You have one week left to place a $50 retail order (before tax) using hostess code: Z4PZPW6Q  to earn the free Birthday Card Class Kit. See details below.

Free Mini Card Class Kit

This is not an in person class but you will receive a free pdf tutorial showing you how to make the cards as well as a video tutorial. The pdf tutorial will also contain measurements so that you can create more cards if you wish. You will receive the materials to make 2 each of 3 designs but the DSP for each one will be different, but they all come from the Bright and Beautiful DSP pack.

You can earn this Free Mini Card Class Kit by placing a minimum order of $50 retail using the following hostess code: Z4PZPW6Q . You can order anything from the online store. Please make sure the hostess code shows up in your shopping cart to earn this free mini card class kit.

Your kit will contain all the paper needed; pre cut, die cut and dry embossed as well as the white baker’s twine. Your card kit will not contain any stamped images, but the only stamp you need to complete these cards is a Happy Birthday sentiment. You will also need glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals, and ink. I’ve used Blueberry Bushel, Berry Burst, and Night of Navy but Memento Tuxedo Black will work for all three cards. I used the Beautiful Balloons Bundle with the Bright & Beautiful DSP to create these cards but you won’t need them to make your cards.

January Zoom Card Class

Saturday, January 27, 2024 at 6 PM

RSVP by January 5, 2024 (but sooner is better)

Fee: $22 plus $4.50 shipping and handling

Fee: with optional 9 card add on (see below): $37 + $5.50 shipping and handling

(18 cards total which is approximately $2/card)

This card class will feature 3 fun fold cards using the Online Exclusive Meandering Meadows DSP. We will be making 3 of each card (Z-Fold, Double Card Base, & Bay Window Card). You will receive a 1/4 pack of the Meandering Meadows DSP as part of your kit. You only need 9 sheets to complete the cards above and two of the cards will have extra DSP left to make even more cards. With that in mind I designed 3 more cards to use the leftover pieces of DSP and will . These cards are simple enough to make by looking at the pictures but I will show them at the end of class to answer any questions.

Your class kit will come with all paper, die cuts and embellishments shown to make the cards as pictured. You will need to have your own stamps, ink, glue and basic crafting supplies to make your cards during the zoom class. During the zoom class I provide instruction on how to assemble the cards. If you want to cut your own DSP so you can mix and match then differently than I have shown below let me know, otherwise I will precut all the DSP for each of your cards, including bonus if you buy the bonus pack.

Add on cards

Must purchase January Class to purchase add on. The DSP for the below cards are included in your January Kit and will be precut for you just like your class cards. The fee is listed above.
