Diagonal Easel Fun Fold for Dads and Grads

By | May 25, 2022

Stampin' Up! Let's Set Sail | Just Stamp Diagonal Easel Fun Fold for Dads & Grads

Here’s a great card for Dads and Grads for crafters who love a fun fold design. When the card is folded flat, it easily slips in a standard size envelope. When opened, it folds on the diagonal to prop up easel-style with the help of a “stop.” The recipient can enjoy the card displayed nicely on a desktop or mantel.

Stampin’ Up!’s bundle, Let’s Set Sail, crafts up the perfect nautical scene for a graduation or Father’s Day/Birthday cards. The 9-piece photopolymer stamp set coordinates with the Sailboat Builder punch and includes inspirational greetings.

The supplies, measurements and step-by-step How To were shared during a recent Facebook live. In case you missed it, I have linked the edited video below. Alternatively, you can click over to the YouTube Just Stamp YouTube channel and view. While you’re there, be sure to subscribe and set up notifications to be alerted of upcoming video tutorials.

Sending Smiles Card Design with Bending Stamp Technique

By | May 7, 2022

Stampin' Up! Sending Smiles | Just Stamp Birthday Wishes

 

Here’s a technique to get more options from photopolymer stamps — bend the stamp as you mount it to an acrylic block. Like bending the rules, the biggest dilemma  is determining the extent of the bend 😉

In this case, the stem and leaves were bent to the curve of a circle to create a wreath arranged with cornflower-colored blooms.

Video Tutorial with How To Tips for Bending Photopolymer Stamps

ThIs pretty birthday card was shared during a Facebook Live  episode. Supplies, measurements and the step-by-step instructions were given.

Bonus Projects Using the Bonus Stamp Set

This month I’m sharing Bonus projects I created using the Bonus Stamp set, a beautiful two-stamp set with posies and greetings that are perfect for all reasons.

March 2022 Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit | Just Stamp Bonus Projects.

Here’s Bonus Project 1: Sending You Birthday Wishes

March 2022 Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit | Just Stamp Bonus Projects

 

The 12-piece two-step bonus stamp set includes a whimsical spray of outline and color posies, leaves and useful greetings. Two-step stamping packs a quick, powerful punch. Just stamp the solid color in Misty Moonlight ink, the floral detail in Night of Navy. Add Old Olive leaves, Bumble Bee dots and some splatter for a fun-fold birthday card. I cropped the circles with the 2″ and 2 1/4″ retired circle punches.

 Here’s Bonus 2: Best Wishes

March 2022 Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit | Just Stamp Bonus Projects

 

These posies were stamped using Calypso Coral. The solid posies are stamped off, while the detail is full ink. For a flash of Bumble Bee, I added a snip of the kit tissue paper. The flowers were hand snipped and layered with Dimensionals.

I created the kit projects as designed and three bonus cards during a monthly Paper Pumpkin Escape episode on Facebook’s Just Stamp with AnaMarie page. All supplies, measurements and step-by-step instructions are provided. In case you missed it, here is an edited tutorial.

Four Reason Why You Need the Cactus Cuties Punch Bundle

By | March 21, 2022

Stampin' Up! Cactus Cuties Bundle | Just Stamp SOM Projects

I love a punch bundle! And I love when I have lots of reasons to add one to my collections of stamps and tools.

The Cactus Cuties Bundle is a natural favorite in the January – June Mini Catalog. It includes the 14-piece stamp featuring house succulents, pots and simple greetings, plus the Cactus Builder Punch. The stamp images are sized slightly larger than the punch image, so elements don’t have a white edge.

The  bundle showcasing the low maintenance plant was the pick for Just Stamp team member Debbie Scott when she volunteered to be Stamper of the Month.

Debbie’s collection of projects includes something for all types of stampers and crafters. Here are four reasons to add the Cuties to your crafty collection.

One: Home Decor

Stampin' Up! Cactus Cuties Bundle | Just Stamp Stamper of the Month Project

Popsicle sticks created a fun backdrop for a collection of potted succulents and a cheery message. Prop the “fence” on an easel and the project makes a fun decor element.

The popsicle sticks were colored by directly sponging ink. Next, they were arranged side by side and glued.

Two: Paper Pieced Landscape

Stampin' Up! Cactus Cuties Bundle | Just Stamp Stamper of the Month Project

I love the majestic landscape Debbie created with sunset colors and a dark terrain to showcase the desert natives in their habitat. Note the twine lasso paying homage to the Wild West.

Three: Simple Stamping and Die Cutting

Stampin' Up! Cactus Cuties Bundle | Just Stamp Stamper of the Month Project

Clean Basic White, a panel of tone on tone stamping, and a beautiful scallop edge crafted a sweet Hello Card. Striped ribbon put the perfect bow on the project.

Four: Just Add Texture

Stampin' Up! Cactus Cuties Bundle | Just Stamp Stamper of the Month Project

The Bark 3-D Embossing Fold and twine-wrapped blocks showcase potted succulents in more colors — just like the ones nature creates.

Team members can then create the projects for themselves or present the projects as part of their stamping business.

Debbie presented her card class and PDF tutorial at a recent Team Time gathering, which includes stamping, sharing, recognition and prizes.
