Today I’m going to show you some cards that I made with the This Birthday Piggy stamp set and the coordinating, limited-time Playful Piggy dies from the Perfect Partners promotion. These three note cards I’m sharing have “dimension” – one card has a wobble, one has a zig-zag extension, and one pops out at you when you open it up! Fun, right?!
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cards with the This Birthday Piggy Stamp Set, the Playful Piggy Dies, the Awash in Beauty Designer Paper, some Stampin’ Blends Markers, and other coordinating 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.

We had one of our online team gatherings last night via Zoom. And for these gatherings I email out a sketch challenge in the invite ahead of time. Many of us create cards based on that sketch challenge and then share them during the team gathering. I found this one on Pinterest. It originated from https://tsgclearstamps.blogspot.com/
It’s so fun to see what everyone comes up with. I used some current favorite products and created cards with this sketch challenge, too.
In fact I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for my versions of this sketch challenge using the Garden Birdhouses Stamp Set, Splendid Day Designer Paper, the Timber Embossing Folder, fun coordinating colors of cardstock & embellishments, and Stampin’ Blends. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post.

Did you catch the blog hop I participated in a few days back on August 20th? Those of us in that hop each featured a fun fold card called the Pop-Out Bendy card. I used the Apple Harvest Stamp Set (available now) and Apple Blossoms Dies (which will be available September 1st) in my version of this fold.

When Stampin’ Up! added the Masking Paper to our product line, I was super excited! I don’t use it often enough. But when I do, I can’t stop creating and want to try out all the possibilities. Think of it as giant Post It® Notes but with a stronger stick.
So I had a few minutes to play around last week with this Masking Paper and a background stamp I’ve been dying to design with: Pretty Medallion. And today I have two pretty, but easy-to-make greeting cards to share!
I tried sharing these last week, but my two attempts at live broadcasts didn’t work. My apologies to those of you who showed up and hung in there with me through those 30 minutes.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for the basics of using Stampin’ Up!’s Masking Paper and how to make these two cards with the Pretty Medallion Stamp Set, the Simply Fabulous Stamp Set, dye-based inks & Blending Brushes, heat embossing, and of course…the Masking 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.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
