A couple weekends ago I hosted my seventh annual Silver Elite Stars’ Retreat. I couldn’t share all the details in that January 26th post, and I promised to share all that we created in upcoming blog posts. So…Today I thought I’d show you the Outside-In fun fold cards that we made that Saturday afternoon. I’ll show you MY versions of these cards. But below you will find photos of additional cards that two of my retreat attendees made.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these Outside-In fun fold cards (and the tips for creating the two cards I’ll be sharing tomorrow, too!) with products from the Stampin’ Up!’s Forever Love Suite. And now I’m sharing that video 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 post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

I have my January 2024 Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit in hand, and I’m ready to demonstrate for you my first set of alternate projects that I’ve created!
For those of you not familiar with our kits, they come with all the supplies you need AND directions for assembling the kit cards/projects as designed. Here are the intended cards/projects designed for this January 2024 Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit. (Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video to help you assemble these as intended.)
But I like to take the supplies from the kits and create other things…think outside the box. This way I can show how to stretch the kits in new ways. A kit that you may have not been a fan of might all of a sudden be more attractive (or a favorite) because of a new way of using the supplies!
And I’m sharing my first alternates with you today. Even if you didn’t get this kit, I hope the ideas I share can be applied to other products you own, and I hope what I share inspires your creativity!
Watch my video first by clicking here to get the measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on the image below if you are already in my blog post). 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 everything.
Here are close-up photos of the alternate cards I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
Star Column Pedestal Card…
Torn Border Cards…
Shaker Valentine Card…
I hope you enjoyed what I shared today! Again…if you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own.

I spent this past weekend hosting my annual Silver Elite Retreat for a few demonstrators in my Stampers With ART group. These demonstrators (titled at Silver Elite or higher) work hard to earn their title, so I like to spoil them a little bit. I’ll share photos and more details from this event soon. But today I thought I’d share one of the make-n-take cards from our weekend event.
It’s another Star Column Card! It’s put together in a similar way as those I demonstrated on 1/17/24. But this time I used the Perennial Lavender Designer Paper to accent the panels of the Basic White Cardstock base. I also used the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle to create the main images on the front and back of the card.
Measurements…
Basic White Cardstock
(2) 5-1/2” x 11” scored parallel to the short at ½”, 1 ½”, 2 ½”, 3 ½”, 4 ½”, 5 ½”, 6 ½”, 7 ½”, 8 ½”, 9 ½” and 10 ½” for the card base
1” x 5 ½” for the connecting piece
2″ Circle for the back
3/4″ x 2-1/2″ for the sentiment strip
Scrap for die-cutting the ice cream swirl base
Scrap for stamping and die-cutting the ice cream cone
Perennial Lavender Designer Paper (pattern for panels)
(12) 7/8″ x 5-3/8″
(2) 1/2” x 1-1/2” scored halfway at 3/4″ for connecting the sentiment circle to the card
(2) 2” x 1-1/2” scored halfway at 3/4” for connecting the cone to the card
Perennial Lavender Designer Paper (pattern for ice cream)
Scrap for die-cutting the ice cream swirl
Cardstock in two other coordinating colors
Scraps for die-cutting the ice cream swirls
After assembling the card base, I cut the strips of Perennial Lavender Designer Paper. I kept the strips in order then attached them to the 12 panels of the card base so the design was continuous and flowed well.
I attached the purple die-cut designer paper ice cream swirl to the white ice cream base. Then I filled in the spaces with die-cut pieces from a couple other coordinating cardstock colors (Blackberry Bliss and Highland Heather in this case).
I stamped the cone with Crumb Cake ink. After die-cutting, I used a Blending Brush to add more Crumb Cake ink near the edges of the image to create shading and the look of depth. I adhered these together. Then I added the sentiment strip with Dimensionals.
For the strip, I punched each end with the Banners Pick a Punch. I inked up the sentiment with Blackberry Bliss ink, lighted the ink of the top half with a dauber, exhaled on the ink to re-moisten it, stamped the image on the strip, and then painted on Wink of Stella to the tops of the letters.
(For the sentiment on the 2″ circle on the back, I did the same thing but lightened the ink on the bottom instead of the top.)
Then I connected this circle and the cone in the same way I did with my other front and back elements on the other Star Column cards I shared on 1/17/24.
And I finished by embellishing the card with a few gems.
Just like those I shared before…this card can fold flat and fit into Stampin’ Up!’s medium A2 size envelope.
This is another version I made with a different pattern from the designer paper pack and a different color combo for the ice cream.
And here are photos of three finished cards from a few who attended the retreat this weekend. All of them added Wink of Stella to their ice cream (which looks much better in person…it didn’t photo very well).
Those who made the cards are named in the watermark of each photo.
I’d love to see YOUR version of this fun fold. Join my Facebook Group and post your card so you can share your creativity and inspire others.

I just recently started noticing a special fun fold card out there shared by a few different paper crafters on YouTube. And I decided I wanted to design a simpler flatter version that would fit into the medium (A2 size) envelopes that Stampin’ Up!® offers. I wanted it flatter so that it could possibly even be mailed with a one-ounce stamp. AND I wanted it simpler so it would be quicker to put together.
Well I’m proud to say I did it! My version is made from two long sheets of designer paper and is 4” x 5-1/2” when flattened to enclose in an envelope! So there is no more need to create six individual diamond-shaped sections that need to be glued together.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these Star Column cards with the Most Adored Designer Paper (available only for a limited time), the Heartfelt Hexagon Stamp Set & coordinating punch, and other Stampin’ Up!® product. And now I’m sharing that video 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 post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

1” x 5 ½”
(4) 1” x 2” scored halfway at 1”
(4) ½” x 1” scored halfway at ½”
Cardstock (Basic White or Real Red)
Scraps for stamping & punching labels
Gold Foil
(2) 2” circles (optional)
Remember…this Most Adored Designer Paper is only available while supplies last and is part of the exclusive 2024 Sale-a-Bration offerings. So to get your hands on this free product, be sure to place a qualifying order soon. See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Today I’ve got a fun fold card to share that actually came together in a unique way. My team member, Amy Rudd was in charge of leading the make-n-take project for our last team event. She shared her drawings and measurement information with me ahead of time. I guess I didn’t fully understand what she was explaining though, because the sample card I ended up creating and sharing during the event was slightly different. Hahaha!
Since that team event I’ve seen a few other cards out there that are similar to mine (stair step cards) but require a bit more cardstock. I wanted to keep my 11″ length, BUT I also wanted the back to prop up as part of the whole scene. So I altered it more and added an easel. I also decided to name it a “mountain fold” because of the peeks and “display” because the easel allows it to stay upright.
I’m traveling with my son Luke right now. (We are in Los Angeles, CA.) So I wasn’t able to be live today for my Online Paper Crafting Class. Instead I pre-recorded a video for this unique card and shared it on YouTube and Facebook. I used products from the new Bee Mine Suite from Stampin’ Up!’s Jan-April 2024 Mini Catalog which just debuted January 4, 2023.
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 post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared.

*FYI: Today’s three cards and the three cards from before are put together with one set of supplies from each of the three kit cards. So if you make these cards with all the kit supplies, you can get 18 instead of just 9 cards…you can double the cards in the kit!

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.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared! Here are close-up photos of the alternate cards I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
