EXPANDING ON THE FRAME
May 26, 2020
The post today expands on the last post. I shared the Encouragement Frame with the team last week and they asked me how they could make a card out of this. So this is what I created. My goal with my team was to teach them how they could make this box any size they wanted to. By adding 4 inches to each measurement of the desired size you can make any box you want. If you want a 4 x 6, you would add 4" to the six inch side and 4" to the four inch side. Your paper would be 8 x 10. Always add 4

Today I wanted to show you how you can used this fun stamp & die set and not use the Designer Series Paper. I love the coordinating Designer Series Paper but I think there are about a million posts on the interned showing how to use the DSP so I wanted to reach outside the box and use something else. I selected the wood grain DSP from Beautiful Gallery and I love the way it came out. Be sure to download the free Project Sheet below
This card uses the beautiful new Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection to create a fun Backbend Easel Card. This is one of the many Suites that are on sale during the month of June 2025.
For this card I started out with the beautiful 2025-27 In Color Strawberry Slush. I used the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and die to cut the flowers. I added the beautiful Metallic Texture Rub Ons to add bling to the card. You will find all of these things in my Stampin' Up! store . Be sure to download the Free Project Sheet for all the measurements.
This sweet card uses the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape with the die to cut the flowers. I attached the tape to a piece of Basic White cardstock and die cut it using the coordinating die. This made for a bunch of beautiful flowers to attach to the front and inside of the card. The greeting is from Year of Flowers. I added the beautiful little Iridescent Pearls to the centers of the flowers . The background is embossed with Glass & Gardens Embossing Folder. You will find all these products listed below along with Free Project Sheet.
This is one of the brand new bundles from Stampin' Up! I love the way it looks. The set just arrived this morning and I couldn't wait to play with it. Below is a Free Project Sheet which will give you all the instructions you need to create this beautiful card. If you don't have this bundle you can purchase it by clicking on the product below or use something you have in your stash.
No, I am not stuck on this set of dies, however, this idea came to me through an indirect route and I of course had to change it up and do it a little differently. The Thankful Garden Bundle or the Pretty Floral Bundle could be used for this idea. Actually any set of die cut flowers would work. I used an 11 x 4 1/4 piece of Basic White for my card base so the card opens at the top instead of the side to create a beautiful and fun easel fold
