IT’S FRIDAY & TIME FOR SOME FEATURES AND A FUN FOLD CARD

This week has been all about MORE THAN AUTUMN.

The More than Autumn Bundle includes the More than Autumn Stamp Set and the More than Autumn Dies.

The More than Autumn Bundle has fun stamps and dies for creating autumn-themed and winter-themed accents for cards, scrapbooks, and more.

The stamp set comprises 36 photopolymer stamps, including 13 images and 23 words/phrases. It also has 23 dies, including 15 shapes (12 of which coordinate with the image stamps) and 7 words/phrases. The largest diemeasures 1 5/8″ x 1 3/8″.

REMEMBER: When you buy a current bundle, you save 10%!

My fun fold card today is a Circle Cut Out Card.

It has been quite a while since I used any of the Moody Mauve products, so I decided to use it for this project. I thought Moody Mauve coloured icing on the doughnuts would be perfect.

I started with the Moody Mauve card base and used one of the Spotlight on Nature Dies to cut the centre section out of the card front. Then I took a slightly smaller panel of Lost Lagoon DSP from the Subtles 6″x 6″ DSP, and placed it under the card front and traced the circle cut out. Then I was able to position the same die accurately. When the circle was cut, I was able to adhere the DSP panel on the card front.

For the white interior of the card I cut a piece of Basic White card, measuring 5 5/8″ x 4″. I scored and folded it at 4 3/8″ and then at 2 3/16″. I used my Bone Folder to create crisp folds in the card.

I adhered the white insert insode the card.

Then, after closing the card, I was able to position the Moody Mauve die cut circle inside the corresponding space on the card front. From there, I was able to adhere half the circle to the folded white insert.

I cut a second Moody Mauve circle and two, smaller white circles.

After looping some Moody Mauve Jute behind one of the white circles, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals and popped on the front Moody Mauve circle.

I alyered and adhered the other two circles and added them to the inside of the card.

Then I stamped, coloured and die cut four doughnuts and added them to the card. I also stamped and coloured another doughnut on the back of the envelope.

For the front of the card, I stamped the greeting and cut the banner using one of t he Stylish Shapes Dies. It was popped up on the card with dimensionals.

The final step was to add some Moody Mauve bling from the 2023-2025 In Colour Dots pack.

See you Monday with some new Stampin’ Up! products and projects to share.

Until then, happy stamping.

THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT IS TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

My 3D project today uses the Pocket Thoughts Dies to create a simple pocket that holds two hot chocolate sachets perfectly.

I started by cutting two Early Espresso pocket pieces using the largest of the dies.

After folding along the score lines, I added Tear & Tape on one of the panels. This panel was then adhered to the second, creating a little pocket sachet.

Before adding some decorative circles to the sachet, I wrapped a length of Crumb Cake twine from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack and tied it in a bow.

To decorate the front of the pocket sachet, I cut two circles using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. The paper was from the Neutrals 6″x 6″ Designer Series Paper Bundle.

The striped circle was adhered directly on the front of the sachet. Then, the ‘spotted’ circle was added using Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop it up off the striped circle below.

To decorate these circles, I stampedand die cut a takeaway hot drink cup. Before positioning this on the circle, using dimensionals, I stamped and cut the marshmallows and adhered them to the top of the cup.

I added Adhesive Sheet to the back of some Crumb Cake and Early Espresso card scraps. Then I was able to die cut the ‘Hot Cocoa’ words to add to the cup.

For ‘Hot’ I cut the word in both colours and overlapped them to create a shadow effect.

To finish the sacher I added two hot chocolate sleeves and a wooden spoon.

Tomorrow is Friday and I have a Fun Fold Card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.
