Welcome to our All Star Tutorial group blog hop! Did you get your hands on this month’s set of tutorials featuring the Peony Garden Suite?! These tutorials are designed by twelve Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world. They are exclusive to those who earn them or purchase them. And they are complete with photos, video directions, supply lists and measurements in both imperial and metric.
Here are peeks of the fantastic projects in our July bundle focusing on the Peony Garden Suite. (Click here to find information for how to get your hands on this month’s compilation.)
And here is a larger peek of the project tutorial I contributed. It’s a fun fold card.
Our hop today will give you MORE ideas than what we are offering in our bundle. See what I have to share. Then to follow the hop and see other creative project ideas featuring the Peony Garden Suite, simply scroll down and click on the names of other hop participants in our tutorial team. (If you are receiving this blog post by email, click HERE to see links and follow the hop.)
My project idea that I’m sharing today is a Center Step fun-fold card. I shared how to make a vertical/portrait version of this fold with my Box of Sunshine Paper Pumpkin kit on June 20th. And today I’m sharing how to make a horizontal/landscape version with several products from this beautiful Peony Garden Suite: Prized Peony Stamp Set, Dainty Diamonds Embossing Folder, Elegant Faceted Gems, and Square Vellum Doilies.
The directions are best explained in a video. So I shared the details during my latest Online Paper Crafting Class on Facebook this past Wednesday (yesterday). I uploaded the recording of this class onto my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook) and shared it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the cards I demonstrated and shared.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Night of Navy Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored according to the directions in the video
Whisper White Cardstock
3-1/8” x 3-5/8” (two pieces)
Granny Apple Green Cardstock
3-1/4” x 3-3/4” (two pieces)
Scrap for punching 1-1/2” Circle
Silver Foil Sheets
¾” x 3” (two pieces)
Here is the one I demonstrated. This embossing folder is so amazing! Right? And I love the look of the Elegant Faceted Gems on these cards. This first one includes the clear gems.
This second one includes the pink gems with a flower colored in with the Petal Pink and Calypso Coral Blends Markers.
Isn’t the Champagne Foil amazing?
And then I used the Flirty Flamingo Blends and white gems on this last one.
I’l love to hear which color combo is YOUR favorite.
I hope you enjoyed this fun fold card idea and are now inspired to give it a go!
We are so excited to share our tutorial with you! And we thank you for visiting our blog hop!

I can’t get enough of this Whale of a Time Suite! Today I’m sharing another z-fold card I made recently. But first some news as we are ending one month and entering another…

And the new Peony Garden All-Stars Tutorial Bundle will be available!
Like the Feels Like Frost paper that debuted last fall and is returning again in August (woohoo!), this Whale of a Time 6×6 Designer Paper is PERFECT for making 3-Panel Scenery Z-Fold cards. I shared a couple of these cards on June 9th. Click here to see them shared on my blog and click here to see these cards initially introduced in my Box Opening video in my Stamp Your Art Out Group on Facebook. AND… around the same time Nancy and Kayla from stampingbae.com where making one, too! Click here to see the one they shared.
So here is my third version.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Basic Black Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored at 1-1/4” and 4-1/4”
2-1/4″ punched circle
Whisper White Cardstock
1-13/16” (or just over 1-3/4”) x 5-1/4”
2″ punched circle
Whale of a Time Designer Paper
6” wide x 5-1/4” tall – cut into 3 sections 2-1/4” wide, 1-5/8” wide and 2-1/8” wide
2-1/2″ x 3/4″ (cut from the 3/4″ x 6″ piece) scored at 1/2″, 1″, 1-1/2″, and 2″.
Whale image punched from another designer paper piece
Directions…
Stamp sentiment on Whisper White circle.
Form the pop-up piece for the whale by folding the small designer strip into a 4-sided “tube.”
Then assemble card by attaching panels in this order: Whisper White strip, left designer paper panel (add while card is closed to make sure it covers the Whisper White strip), right designer paper panel, and then the middle designer paper panel. (Click here to see my how-to video for this type of fold for a little extra direction. Just keep in mind that my measurements for the pieces in the video are a bit different.)
Add the Basic Black 2-1/4″ circle. Then add the sentiment circle piece.
Attach the pop-up 4-sided tube piece so that the two back sides attach to the middle and right designer paper sections of the card. (Make sure the card can open and shut when attaching this piece.)
Then add the whale using a Glue Dot or two on the tail. (Again make sure the card can open and shut when attaching this piece.)
Glue on a few sequins to make it all sparkle.

And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
Follow along and check out all the other blogs in the hop (click on the names of the participants in the list below my signature) so you can see some fabulous cards and projects created by other demonstrators who also earned the Stampin’ Up!® Maui incentive trip rescheduled to now take place in July of 2021. (If you are receiving this blog post by email, click HERE to see the hop.)
There are five new colors that just debuted in the 2020-21 Annual Catalog: Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness, and Misty Moonlight.
I wanted each member of my Stampers With ART Community to receive supplies to make a card featuring one of these new colors. So I used the new Flowers for Every Season Designer Paper and some coordinating products, prepared 150 packets, and sent them off in the mail.
Then during our recent online team event, I shared with them how to make the following fun fold cards as one of their team make-n-take projects.
(Ignore the fact that the Magenta Madness card doesn’t have enamel dots. I ran out after sending all those supplies to my team members. LOL)
Then cut the 1″ x 6″ strips to make them fit in the inside left side of the card. I cut 1-3/4″ from the top of the 2020-22 In Color Designer Paper strip and just under 2-3/4″ from the bottom of the Flowers For Every Season Designer Paper strip. These I placed in the middle section. Then I placed the remaining strips below and above so that they were not interfering with folding the card. And I trimmed off any excess.
Each team member used their own stamp set for the sentiment of their card. The stamp sets I used for my samples are in the product list below.
Here are a couple more versions of this card done in the other two In Colors.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared today. Have fun on the hop! And have a blast seeing all those inspiring ideas made by fellow trip achievers!

The June 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit titled Box of Sunshine is amazing! The design of this kit was inspired by Sara Douglass, the CEO of Stampin’ Up!® and is all about “sharing sunshine” with others.
This fantastic, all-inclusive, monthly subscription kit contained the supplies shown below to make 8 full-size cards (5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″) and a sheet of stickers for decorating and gifting the box.
Once you’ve made all the cards, fill the box with yellow goodies and gift it so someone to brighten their life with a little sunshine!
I like to think outside the box…see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So I added the extra supplies in the product list at the bottom of this post to the above kit contents and created my alternate projects that I’m sharing with you today:
Three Magnetic Bookmarks
A Vertical Center Step Card
A 12×12 Scrapbook Page Layout
And Three Gift Boxes (one made from a card base)

Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked to my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then be sure to visit my blog again soon, because I have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing on June 25th.

When my new products from the 20-21 Annual Catalog arrived last week, I opened them all up so I could share them during a couple box opening broadcasts. And when I opened the Whale of a Time 6×6 designer paper, I KNEW I had to make one of those 3-Panel Scenery Z-Fold cards! So I gathered up the items from the Whale of a Time Suite (shown below)…
…and I came up with these cards. This turtle one is easiest to make.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Pacific Point Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored at 1-1/4” and 4-1/4”
Blackberry Bliss Cardstock
2-1/4″ punched circle
Whisper White Cardstock
1-13/16” (or just over 1-3/4”) x 5-1/4”
Whale of a Time Designer Paper
6” wide x 5-1/4” tall – cut into 3 sections 2-1/4” wide, 1-5/8” wide and 2-1/8” wide
2″ punched circle
Pool Party Sheer Ribbon
19″
Directions…
Stamp sentiment on Whisper White strip.
Tie on ribbon.
Then assemble card by attaching panels in this order: Whisper White strip, left designer paper panel (add while card is closed to make sure it covers the Whisper White strip), right designer paper panel, and then the middle designer paper panel. (Click here to see my how-to video for this type of fold for a little extra direction. Just keep in mind that my measurements for the pieces in the video are a bit different.)
Add the Blackberry Bliss 2-1/4″ circle. Then add the punched turtle designer paper piece.
It’s that easy. AND it shows off those fabulous designer paper scenes.
This second one with the whale is a bit more challenging but oh so fun.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Directions…
Stamp sentiment and bubbles on Whisper White circle.
Form the pop-up piece for the whale by folding the small designer strip into a 4-sided tube.
Then assemble card by attaching panels in this order: Whisper White strip, left designer paper panel (add while card is closed to make sure it covers the Whisper White strip), right designer paper panel, and then the middle designer paper panel. (Click here to see my how-to video for this type of fold for a little extra direction. Just keep in mind that my measurements for the pieces in the video are a bit different.)
Add the Basic Black 2-1/4″ circle. Then add the sentiment circle piece.
Attach the pop-up 4-sided tube piece so that the two back sides attach to the middle and right designer paper sections of the card. (Make sure the card can open and shut when attaching this piece.)
Then add the whale using a Glue Dot or two on the tail. (Again make sure the card can open and shut when attaching this piece.)
