I’ve had a couple cards gifted to me lately each featuring a central image that angles and flips forward when the card opens. (Each of these people credited Dawn Griffith for the idea. Thank you Dawn!) So I had to play around and made a few vertical versions of this type of card for myself.
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating this Pop & Flip Card with new products debuting in less than 3 weeks in the 2021-22 Annual Catalog: Beauty of Friendship Stamp Set, Beautiful Trees Dies, and Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper. 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.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).

And look at all the fun In Color goodies that us demonstrators could pre-purchase so far!
I was live on YouTube this morning sharing these new colors, talking about and showing some of the new In Color products, and comparing these new colors to current and past Stampin’ Up! colors. It was fun, because I was able to interact and try out comparisons that were suggested by those viewing at the time.
Click here to watch that recording (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog) to check out all the color comparisons I shared, scroll through the photos below, and then let me know if you have any questions. (Also be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don’t miss when I may go live the next time AND when I post prerecorded videos.)
I hope you enjoyed watching!
Here are close-up photos of the color samples I shared. It’s better to see them in the video though, because photography doesn’t always capture the exact color. And of course… purchasing them when they become available on May 4th to see them in person will always be best (wink wink).
By the way…each new color is positioned somewhat in the middle of all the others.
I hope this helps many of you prepare for gathering up any more outgoing In Color products from the Last Chance list AND get your wish lists ready for when you can get your hands on some of these new In Color products.
How do you get these colors now and not have to wait until May 4th? Become a demonstrator!
Now through May 3rd, anyone becoming a demonstrator may add pre-order products (including In Color items shown today) into what they are getting in their Starter Kit. Click here to learn more about the perks of getting the starter kit. It’s an awesome perk to be able to get these products early. Plus you’ll have the added perk of being a discount shopper. I love not having to pay full price!

One of my favorite things to do with kits from Stampin’ Up! is to add a bit of extra cardstock and envelopes and see if I can re-configure the kit pieces to double the amount of cards. Well, I just had to do that again with the Hello Dear Friend Kit!
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for turning those twelve Hello Dear Friend Kit cards into 24. 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.
Measurements for 8 cards… (Triple the measurements to get 24 cards)
Early Espresso Cardstock
Four pieces that are 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4”
Two pieces that are 4-1/4” x 11” scored parallel to the short side at 5-1/2”

Here are photos of the finished cards. Remember that these 8 cards only represent 1/3 of the kit. So you’ll want to make 3 of each design to get 24 total. And be sure to purchase this kit sooner than later. Kits typically don’t carry over when catalogs end. And this kit is no exception. It IS going to retire the end of June when the Jan-June Mini Catalog ends.

To celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, I’ve got a project with lots of green!
I was very inspired when I came across a special card on Pinterest made by Chris Slogar. So I visited her December 17,2020 blog post and learned how to make this special card that she titled the “Sliding Lock” card. I started making my own variations and recently put together an Easter-themed version that I’m excited to share with you today using this same sliding lock mechanism. It features the Arrange a Wreath Stamp Set, Forever Greenery Designer Paper, Wreath Builder Dies, the soon-to-be retiring 2019-21 In Color, Pretty Peacock (a favorite green that will be missed by many).
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating this amazing interactive card. 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.

Many have been asking for more details for Elizabeth Hebert’s projects that she shared when she was my January Showcase Stamper. So today I thought I’d bring to you one of them…the card holder with pockets. Elizabeth was kind enough to share her measurements for her Snail Mail version with me. So I took those and adapted them only slightly for the version I’m sharing with you today.
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating this using products in the Hydrangea Hill Suite: Hydrangea Hill Designer Paper, Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set, Mercury Glass Acetate, and the Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon. 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.
