Stampin' Up! Phrases & Frames Sympathy Card

Good morning...at least that's what it is here in TN on a Monday. My card today is one that nobody likes to have to make but I think the design and paper are beautiful just like the person who went to be with her Lord and Savior. Take a look see...

 

It's a book binding fold and the design was compliments of Maymay Made It. I really had fun creating the quilt part. You can see how to create it here.

 

For the fold...score a piece of 4 1/4" x 11" cardstock at 5 1/2" and 6 3/4". Fold at 5 1/2 and fold back at the 6 3/4. Cut a 1" by 4" DSP strip. I will be posting cards that have mats with measurements next Monday. The cuts for the quilt and how to arrange are in Maymay's video. It's a pattern that creates 4 cards. 

 

Thank you for stopping by.

Stampin' Up! Fern & Flora Birthday for Amy's Inkin' Krew Blog Hop

Welcome to the AIK monthly blog hop. Our theme for this month is "Fun Fold" and we can  use any product we wish.  The list of hoppers is at the end of my post. I hope you'll hop along. Here's a thumbnail of my creation...

 

 Let's take a closer look...

 

This is another card design/fun fold that Alyson Mayo taught me how to make. If you join her group, you can watch the video and get the pdf. I hope you'll do that.

I'm using up some items from my stash that I found when I participated in the Papercrafters Get Organized Summit. I have so many pre-cut butterflies and flowers it's pathetic!

Stampin' Up! Patriotic Birthday and Anniversary Cards

Good morning, stamping friends! Can you believe  we are headed into the 4th of July weekend? I have friends who celebrate a birthday and anniversary around the 4th so I created these cards for them.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you will have a happy and safe 4th of July celebration. Wow, the Declaration of Independence was signed 250 years ago. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." I think there are many people who have forgotten this, don't you? Happy birthday, America.
