Welcome to the March 2019 Greek Isles Achievers Blog Hop! Follow along and check out all the other blogs in the hop (click on the names of other 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!® Greek Isles incentive trip that will take place this July 2019. (I’m so excited! This is my dream trip come true!!) This month’s hop features 2019 Sale-a-Bration and Occasions Catalog products.
I’ve been playing around with pop out gate-fold cards lately (see what I shared March 8 and February 6). And I came up with one more that I think you’ll enjoy.
The belly band holds it shut. When you take off the band and open it up in the middle, the back panel pops forward to reveal to focal point of the design.
I loved the boldness of the Lovely Lipstick and the Flirty Flamingo colors together in the striped pattern of the All My Love Designer Paper and knew those colors would look yummy together as frosting on a cake. So I paired up the All My Love Designer Paper with images from the Piece of Cake Stamp Set to create this fun wedding (or anniversary) card.
Products I used… See below for a list of products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Whisper White Cardstock:
4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ and then at 2-3/4″ from each end
Scrap for punching out 2″ Circle piece
Scrap for stamping and punching out 1-1/4″ Circle piece
Scrap for punching two 3/4″ Circles
Flirty Flamingo Cardstock:
Scrap for stamping and punching out 2″ Circle piece
Scrap for stamping and punching out cake
Lovely Lipstick Cardstock:
Scrap for punching out Starburst piece
Scrap for punching out 1-3/8″ Scallop Circle piece
Silver Foil Sheets:
Scrap for punching out Starburst piece
Scrap for punching out cake plate piece
12″ x 1-1/8″ strip
All My Love Designer Paper:
Lovely Lipstick stripes on Flirty Flamingo pattern: 1″ x 12″
Lovely Lipstick stripes on Flirty Flamingo pattern: Two pieces cut to 2-1/2″ x 4″
Tiny pink and white hearts pattern: Two pieces cut to 2-1/2″ x 4″
Directions…
After preparing all pieces above (cutting, scoring, stamping, punching, etc.), stamp inside message with Lovely Lipstick ink about 1″ from the top and centered.
Adhere 2-1/2″ x 4″ designer paper layers to the outer inside flaps and the front of the card (the opposite side of the outer inside flaps).
Fold 3/4″ Whisper White circles in half. Then open up the card.
Use Glue Dots and attach half of one 3/4″ Circle to the right side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is lined up with the score line of the middle of the card. Use Glue Dots and attach half of the other circle to the left side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is lined up with the score line of the middle of the card. Then attach the Lovely Lipstick Starburst piece to the other halves of those circles using Glue Dots. Make sure it is centered.
Add the Whisper White 2″ circle, the cake, and the cake plate. Then embellish with a few pearls.
Attach the designer strip with SNAIL down the middle of the Silver Foil strip.
Close the card and wrap the belly band around the card so the ends meet in the front middle. Secure with Glue Dots. Make sure the belly band can slip off and on the card easily but that it’s not too loose.
Attach the Silver Foil Starburst piece using Dimensionals over the center of the belly band to hide the connection.
Then ddd the Flirty Flamingo 2″ circle, the Lovely Lipstick 1-3/8″ scallop circle, and the 1-1/4″ Whisper White sentiment circle. Embellish with a couple pearls.
I love fun fold cards! I hope I inspired your creativity and you enjoyed what I shared. Have fun on the hop!

Today’s paper crafting project is this vertical Strip Fold Card that I made with the new Level 2 Painted Seasons Bundle (the stamp set and its coordinating designer paper). With this pack of paper you get twelve double-sided 12×12 sheets – three of four designs. So if you were mass producing this exact card from one pack, you could seriously make 36 of them!
It LOOKS like my succulent designer paper layer is 4″ x 5-1/4″ which in that case you could only make 18 of these cards. But the amount of designer paper I used is really only 4″ x 3″ per card.
Just as with my Strip Fold Cards that I shared on January 21st, I just used small strip of designer paper on the top and a small strip on the bottom portion of the card. The Strip Fold portion of the card that runs through the middle covers up the break in the paper. But unlike the diagonal rainbow-striped paper in my Jan. 21st card, this card involves less math. All I had to do is take a 4″ x 3″ portion of my paper, cut it in half, and adhere one up high and one down low on the base piece to make it appear as if it’s all one large layer.
I got fancy with inking up my succulent stamp image. First I inked it up with Lemon Lime Twist. Next I took my Call Me Clover Stampin’ Write marker and carefully drew on dark green ink between the leaves on the rubber of the stamp.
Then I remoistened the ink by “huffing” on the stamp. I stamped it down, cut it out, and then used my Petal Pink Stampin’ Write marker to add a touch of pink to the tips of the leaves.
Here are a few more details to help you out if you wish to recreate this card.
Measurements…
Call Me Clover Cardstock: 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ and 2-3/8″ x 8-1/2″
Painted Seasons Designer Paper: Two pieces that are 1-1/2″ x 4″
Whisper White Cardstock: 2-1/8″ x 4″… 2-1/4″ x 3/4″ and scraps for stamping and fussy-cutting or die-cutting the succulent images
Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green Reversible Ribbon: 9″
Stamp “I love you” in the center of the 2-1/4″ x 3/4″ Whisper White strip, then trim the right side to make a notch.
Position the flower where it will go to know where to adhere the sentiment strip.
If you don’t want to fussy-cut the succulent stamp images, then you are in for a treat!… During the month of March, you’ll be able to purchase the coordinating Four Seasons Framelits die.
One of the perks of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is being able to order certain products before anyone else. That’s why I already have the Four Seasons Dies. 😉 Click here to see ALL the Sale-a-Bration Coordination products that will be available come March.

Do you remember the Mini Pinwheel Cards/Pouches that I shared two months ago, on December 15th? Well I finally finished the pink one (that I had shared at the end of the video) that I created with the Floral Romance Suite of products. And then of course I couldn’t stop and had to make another with the other pretty patterned paper from the Floral Romance Designer Paper. Here they are!
CLICK HERE to access that how-to video or watch it directly from my December 15th blog post. Watching it will allow you to know how to score, cut and fold this pinwheel. Then follow these measurements if you wish to recreate either of the two above.
Measurements for dark green pinwheel…
Floral Romance Designer Series Paper (dark green/wood grain)
6” x 6”
Whisper White Cardstock
2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
1-1/2″ Circle for inside sentiment
1-1/2″ Circle for outside sentiment
Scrap for stamping and punching vase
Floral Romance Designer Series Paper (floral clusters vellum)
Scrap for cutting out a small floral cluster
2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
Measurements for pink pinwheel…
Floral Romance Designer Series Paper (pink/lt. green leaves)
6” x 6”
Whisper White Cardstock
2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
1″ Circle
Fresh Fig Cardstock
1-1/8″ Scallop Circle
Petal Pink Cardstock
1-1/4″ Circle
Silver Baker’s Twine
6″
Products: See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
I thought the floral clusters in the designer vellum needed a vase to sit in. So I also brought in the Vibrant Vases stamp set.
And then I closed the card, added one Dimensional on one of the flaps towards the middle and positioned the vase layer right smack-dab in the center.
Here is that card/pouch open.
The floral background paper is actually the vellum from the Floral Romance Designer Paper pack that is just layered onto Whisper White Cardstock. The adhesive to hold the vellum in place is positioned under the circle.
Here is what it looks like on the back when open.
This is the other one – the pink one that I had quite finished yet when my how-to video was recorded.
I didn’t get too elaborate, but I love that I now have this message on the inside. And it’s ready to give to someone special.

You may just need to add this 2nd Release Sale-a-Bration pick to the top of your wish list. The Country Floral Embossing Folder is currently available to Stampin’ Up! demonstrators during our preorder period. But it will be made available to everyone come February 15th. Yay!
Look at what this amazing Dynamics Textured Impressions Embossing Folder does to cardstock!
Here is one of my simple card designs I made just a couple days ago with this folder, the new Story Label punch (available March 1st), the Grapefruit Grove Foil Sheets, the Dandelion Wishes stamp set, and the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits dies. (See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.)
Here are the details for creating one of these cards…
Measurements:
Shimmery White Cardstock:
4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ and folded in half for the card base
4″ x 5-1/4″
Scrap for stamping and punching sentiment
Merry Merlot Cardstock:
Scraps for die-cutting the butterfly
Grapefruit Grove Foil Sheet:
Scraps for die-cutting the butterfly
Scraps for punching two Story Label shapes
Products: See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Directions:
Die-cut the butterflies from the Merry Merlot Cardstock and Grapefruit Grove Foil Sheet scraps. The butterflies are die-cut from the largest two layering dies in this set. You can either die-cut all of the 5 butterflies at once or die-cut just one using smaller scraps.
Glue butterflies together in the middle with Fine Tip Glue. Set aside to dry.
Emboss the 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Shimmery White Cardstock and adhere to card base using Dimensionals. One in each corner only will allow your card to be less bulky if mailing it.
Stamp sentiment on Shimmery White scrap. Punch with Story Label Punch. Adhere to Grapefruit Grove punched pieces so that the top edge of one and the bottom edge of the other are peeking out the from the white sentiment piece. Add to the front of the card with Dimensionals.
Attach layered butterfly to the card front with Fine Tip Glue. And allow to dry.

This card makes me happy.
First of all, I think everything in the Floral Romance Suite is gorgeous! So when I took home my product gift from Demos Galore, I pulled out all the other products in the suite and really enjoyed putting this Pop Out Gate-Fold Card together.

Products I Used… See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Directions…
After scoring and folding Whisper White card base into a W-shape, adhere the designer paper with SNAIL and the designer vellum with lightly sponged on Multipurpose Glue. Put the glue on the Silicone Mat, then pounce the sponge into the glue to help distribute onto the sponge evenly. Then use the sponge to pounce it onto the vellum.
Stamp the sentiments onto the Whisper White scraps. Punch them out. Punch out the Petal Pink circle and the two Fresh Fig Starburst Circles. Layer the pieces together using SNAIL. Set aside.
Wrap the designer paper strip around the closed card, and attach ends with SNAIL in the front middle to create a belly band. Attach the “Thinking of You” sentiment piece to the center. Slide off belly band.
Die-cut the branch of leaves, attach the bottom middle leaf behind the “You are…needed” sentiment piece as shown below. Then add the Frosted Flower Embellishments over the stem to hold the branch in place.
Add the Frosted Flower Embellishments on the belly band as shown above.
Add Rhinestones to the centers of the Frosted Flowers with Fine Tip Glue. Allow to dry.
Tie ribbon in a knot. Add to the “Thinking of You” sentiment piece.
Fold the 3/4″ Circles in half. Use Glue Dots and attach half of one circle to the right side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is even with the score line of the middle of the card. Use Glue Dots and attach half of the other circle to the left side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is even with the score line of the middle of the card. Then attach the inside sentiment piece to the other halves of those circles using Glue Dots.
Close the card and slide on the belly band to hold it shut.

PAPER PUMPKIN NEWS
Get in on the fun of Paper Pumpkin! CLICK HERE to sign up by February 10th so you don’t miss out on this next kit. Watch this video to see hints for what is in store.
Today I’m presenting to you another card that we made at the Silver Elite Retreat in December. It’s a very pretty card that is much easier to make than it looks! The products I use are mainly from the 2019 Occasions Catalog: The Forever Lovely Stamp Set, the coordinating Lovely Flowers Edgelits Dies, and a few Heart Epoxy Droplets. And then you’ll need the fabulous Stamparatus Tool. 🙂
This card is a hard one to explain without a video. So I shared it in my Wednesday’s Facebook Live broadcast. I uploaded the recorded version of this video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). I hope you enjoy these ideas! Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), check out the measurements and full products list below, scroll through the close-up photos of the cards I created, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Here are close-up photos and the measurements you’ll need if you plan to recreate any of these projects.
Measurements…
Whisper White Thick Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored at 4-1/4”
Here is how this piece will look after it is die-cut.
Here is the card I demonstrated in the video – the one with the Grapefruit Grove ink.
Here are the other two cards I made prior with the Flirty Flamingo ink.
Aren’t these pretty?!
Below my signature are the links I mentioned in my video.
If you ARE on Facebook, I invite you to “like” then “follow” my page so you can get updates when I share and when I go live. I broadcast live most every Wednesday morning at 11 AM Central Time. But I’ll be on a retreat for many days at the end of the month and need the week prior to get ready. So my next broadcast will be February 6th.
