Demonstrator Training January 2020 Blog Hop

Hello everybody! Welcome to my blog!
Today I’m blog hopping along with wonderful demonstrators from Kylie’s Demonstrator Training Group. Together we learn about running a Stampin’ Up!® business and much, much more!

[Want to recreate this project? You’ll find all the supplies I used at the end of this post, conveniently linked to my Stampin’ Up! online store. I’d love to be your demonstrator and appreciate your support—it means the world to me on this creative journey!]

This card has a special fun fold to it. (See picture below). I call this card fold the Pam fold because fellow demonstrator Pam Jorgensen shared it with the demonstrator community. What’s fantastic about this fold is that it uses the DSP as the card base!!! I thought this fold would be perfect to show off this amazing Painted Poppies DSP.

Card Details:

  • Card Base: Painted Poppies DSP (12″ x 14.8cm – scored 1 3/4″ from left and 10.5 cm from right. I then fold over to get the middle fold, more details below).
  • Card Front: Calypso Coral (9.5 x 13.8 cm and 9 x 13.3 cm)
  • Card Insert: Whisper White (10 x 14.3 cm)
  • Sentiment Label: Whisper White die cut using the bigger label die from the Painted Labels Dies.
  • To create the card base, score as described above and then fold along the two score lines so that the edges fold towards each other. Then take the folded edges and fold them backwards and align them. This creates four panels to your card base. The back panel will measure 10.5 cm x 14.8 cm just as a regular card base. The front will be a narrow flap to the left hand side and will measure 1 3/4″ x 14.8 cm.
  • Add the card insert to the last panel.
  • Die cut the floral cutout from the Poppy Moments Dies from the top left hand corner of the smaller Calypso Coral card front piece. Stamp some ink splats on in stamped off Calypso Coral ink. Then adhere the two layers together. Adhere to the strip of DSP at the front of the fold to create the card front.
  • Stamp your sentiment onto the sentiment label in Old Olive Ink. I used the “Happy Birthday” from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. Adhere to card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Stamp flowers and leaves in Jet Black Stazon Ink onto Shimmery White card stock. Die cut out with coordinating dies. Using an Aqua Painter, add water to the middle of the flowers (and leaves) and then add watered down ink to the wet areas. I used Rich Razzleberry for the flowers and Old Olive for the leaves. Allow to dry. Once dry splatter ink onto the flowers.
  • Arrange flowers to the card front.
  • Complete the card by adding some Peacefull Poppies Sequins. I selected the flower shaped ones in light Poppy Parade colour.

I really love the ink splatter on the flowers.

Card is only complete when you stamp the inside and the envelope! I used the poppy filed image from Peaceful Poppies stamp set. I stamped it in Old Olive on the back of the envelope and on the bottom right corner of the card insert. I added a strip of DSP too to the card insert because I had the strip left over from the cutting of DSP and didn’t want to waste it. As Kylie would say #LoveItChopIt.

This project combines two bundles from the new Peaceful Poppies Suite. What’s pretty neat is that when you purchase either bundle you will be able to choose a FREE product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure! Purchase both bundles and either get TWO free products or one bigger valued free product!

      Thank you Deb! It’s a great fold for a technique class. Pam is a cleaver lady to have come up with it! Now because of this fun fold I won’t cut my DSP smaller than in half.
