Terrific Toadstools Virtual Class

Today’s Virtual Class featured the Terrific Toadstools bundle. I have been creating so many cards with this stamp set and punch. I hope you have as much fun with this bundle as I have. You can get this card kit for free with a $35 retail order in my online store using host code : 2EPNSJXJ from 2/6/25 through 2/11/25. I have listed all the products used for each card below- just click the product image, it will take you to my online store and prefill the host code. (The host code tells me you want the class kit!) PLUS you will receive via email a Color Pdf tutorial with step by step instructions, measurements and a supply list so you can make many more cards over and over!

Here is the YouTube video so you can watch the replay!

I think the little bug just finishes off the card in such a cute way. what do you think?

For this card I used the free Sale-A-Bration products- Toadstool Garden Designer Paper and the Documenting the Day stamp set (which by the way is featured on one of the cards for the February Studio Card Club!

This card I went in a different direction and decided to stamp on designer paper, and punch out the Toadstools from the Toadstool gardens DSP. I also combined it with the Memorable Blooms bundle. I love it when I can mix and match my stamps, dies and punches!

Hump Day Lunch Break – Otterly Amazing and Friendly Seagulls

Isn’t this just the sweetest stamp set? And I love that is has coordinating dies with it! This is one of Stampin’ up!s newer Online Exclusive products. In fact it has a whole suite of products that coordinate with it!

I Many Many Moons ago when I was in high school I did a Otter Sculpture from clay and also a hand drawn sketch of an otter. I loved Art class, I always did (even more than recess!) So when I saw this bundle, I knew I had to have it and share it with you all.

I did not even use the Designer Paper with todays card can you believe it? the card base is Pretty Peacock cardstock measured at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ folded in half (or scored at 4-1/4″) . I made the frame from Basic White Cardstock using the Perennial Postage dies. I cut Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pool Party card stock to 2-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ and embossed it with the So Swirly embossing folder. I stamped the otters, colored with Pecan Pie Blends, then used the coordinating dies to cut out and to make the embossed cardstock look like waves. You can check out the video below from my YouTube Channel. Below that is the supplies I used that are available in my Online Store.

When you spend $60 (in US) in my Online store, you can get this Friendly Seagulls stamp set for FREE from Stampin’ Up! This is actually the card that inspired my Otter card, I found it on Pinterest but the person that created it did not have their name so I can’t give credit where credit is due.

Supplies used

Market Goodness Fun Fold

Today is the second class in our Fun Fun Fold series. This card was inspired by a card I received from my downline that I thought would be great for the class. I knew I wanted to continue using the designer papers from Stampin’ Up! as they are on sale right now for 15% off. You can bet that I have been stocking up on DSP! The To Market DSP is so fun. I knew when I saw it I had to use it. Originally, I was planning on creating a Recipe Book with it. I just haven’t gotten that far. I will do that during my Farmers Market and for Craft fairs. To get the measurements, watch the YouTube Video below.

If you are enjoying these fun folds and would like to get the detailed tutorial for all 6 Fun Fold cards, place a $50 retail order in my online store using host code: CEPUFVBC by August 25 and I will email the tutorial with all the measurements, directions supplies and color pictures.

Fun Fold Class Series

This week i am featuring Fun Fold cards. Fun fold cards are unique and will make your creations really stand out and Wow your friends and family. This class series will up your card making skills. You will learn new techniques to make some fun cards. Fun Folds are some of my more favorite techniques to not only make but to share with others. I challenge you to try these out!

Our first Fun Fold is what I am calling a Pop Up Easel card. Is this really the name of this? Not sure but it is what I am calling it. It is a hybrid of a Pop Up card and an Easel card. All the supplies used to make this card are listed below as well as the YouTube video replay. I hope you enjoy this card. If you make this card, I would love you to share it with us.
