MISTY MOONLIGHT IS GOING AWAY

March 29, 2022

Today I am doing a blog post without a video. That is really unusual for me but I have laryngitis, so I have almost no voice! I didn't want to miss my Facebook live so I found a work around. If you came from my Facebook post for today you understand what I am saying.  I can still create even when I am sick.


As of May 2, Misty Moonlight which is one of our 2020-22 In Colors will be going away. So today I wanted to use it in a simple card. I did use a retired paper, Simply Marbelous from 2022 Sale-A-Bration but you could use the Waves of the Ocean 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper and it would be just as beautiful.

Measurements & Instructions
Cut 4 1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White, score at 5 1/2
Cut 4 x 5 1/4 Misty Moonlight, adhere to the front of the card
Cut 3 3/4 x 5 Basic White, using the Beautiful Shapes Dies, cut with the largest Hexagon in the center with a flat edge parallel to the bottom, stamp greeting from Happy & Heartfelt in Misty Moonlight
Using a scrap cut the flower from the Honeybee Blooms Dies, glue through the opening to the back of the Basic White
Cut 3 x 3 Window Sheet, adhere to back of Basic White
Cut 3 x 3 Simply Marbelous Designer Series Paper or Waves of the Ocean, adhere to the back of the Window Sheet with your favorite side showing through the opening, adhere this sheet to the Misty Moonlight on the front of the card

Using the Misty Moonlight from the Cotton Ribbon Combo Pack, tie a little bow and adhere with a glue dot


There you have a simple yet elegant card to say thank you

This adorable Double Z Fold card features the charming Safari Smiles Bundle and is full of fun details and dimension. To create the ground scene, I incorporated the tree image from the Twisted In Time Bundle, adding the perfect touch of whimsy to the design. The soft cloudy sky was created using a homemade cloud template made from a retired Cloud Punch and lightly blended with Cloud Cover ink using a Blending Brush. The sweet elephants were colored with the Light Smokey Slate Stampin' Blend, giving them a soft and realistic appearance. Cloud Cover cardstock was the perfect choice for the card base, tying all the elements together beautifully. Be sure to download the FREE Project Sheet below for complete measurements, supplies, and step-by-step instructions to create this fun fold card yourself!

It's time to start the 2027 Calendar! The first six months are ready! This is the first of a two part class, just to ease the stress of doing multiple calendars. This fee covers both classes. The second session will be October 1. If you live locally you can attend one of the classes I offer. One is in Lincoln, CA the other at my Studio in Citrus Heights. Please clear your calendar so you will have enough time to complete the pages. If you will be here during lunch please plan accordingly and bring a light lunch. If you do not live locally, you can purchase a kit to create the calendar. Please add shipping to your registration and if the amount is different, I will invoice to cover the difference.

I created this fun and interactive Z Double fold card using the beautiful Balloon Festoon Bundle paired with soft Pool Party cardstock and the lovely Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper for a fresh and cheerful look. The Z fold design adds movement and dimension, making the card extra special when displayed. I loved combining the festive balloon images with the soft patterns from the designer paper to create a playful celebration theme with lots of layered detail. The Pool Party color palette gave the project a light, airy feel while allowing the balloons, patterned paper, and embellishments to really stand out. This card was such a fun way to showcase both the unique fold and the versatility of the bundle and designer series paper together. The entire PDF Instructions for 18 alternate cards using the Pretty Party kit is available for purchase in my store along with other Tutorials & Kits.

I had so much fun creating this cheerful card using the newly released Stampin' Up! Pretty Party Kit from May along with the beautiful Balloon Festoon Bundle . The soft colors and playful patterns from the kit paired perfectly with the festive balloon images and dies, making this card feel bright and full of celebration. I layered the elements to add dimension and finished it off with a few special embellishments for extra sparkle and texture. This combination made it easy to create a fun, happy card that would be perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or simply sending a little joy to someone special.  This kit is beautiful as it is but if you like a challenge and to do different things with the kits, you can purchase the tutorial for all 18 alternate cards on in my store.

This elegant pop up Z fold card combines the timeless beauty of Basic White with soft layers of Crisp Cantaloupe for a fresh and inviting design. Many of our favorite card layouts begin with some form of a Z fold, and this fun interactive style is always a showstopper. I used the beautiful Fragrant Layers Bundle from Stampin' Up! along with the gorgeous Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper to create soft floral layers and elegant detail throughout the card. The flowers were accented with the sparkling 2026–2028 In Color Dots for the centers, while the adorable 2026–2028 In Color Butterflies add the perfect finishing touch. A delicate bow tied with Crisp Cantaloupe Bordered Ribbon completes this charming project with just the right amount of texture and sweetness.

I created this card using one of the more challenging patterns from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Paper, and I love how it pushed me to think a little more creatively with my design. The detailed background really makes a statement, so I paired it with a simple, elegant greeting from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set to keep the focus balanced. To add a bit of texture and shine, I included Dew Drops embellishments, which catch the light beautifully. The finishing touch is a Mossy Meadow and gold bow, bringing in a rich, coordinated look that ties everything together perfectly while adding just the right amount of sophistication.
