This multi- paneled card was one of the projects for my April Card Class. It starts with a piece of cardstock 12 x 12 and thru scoring and folding its finished size in 6 x 6.
I was asked if I would make a video to describe how to make one……………

Painted Blooms Thank you’s
I made a few thank you cards for my ladies last month. The focal point was the Painted Bloom DSP from Stampin’ Up! (which is about to retire) In fact this little card is a homage to a number of products that are on Stampin’ Up’s retirement list ~ I shall miss them all……………………….
Something Lacy with Blushing Bride
Today I have a card that uses a background stamp as a focal point. Something Lacy is in the Occasions mini catalog (and about to retire on June 2nd) which I heat embossed with Blushing Bride Embossing Powder.
One Tag Fits All ~ Baby Congratulations
Don’t get to make too many ‘New Baby’ cards, so when my husband asked me to make one for a co-worker who had just had their first baby I was a bit of a loss as I don’t really have much in the way of baby themed stamp sets. A closer look at my stamp shelf revealed ‘One Tag Fits All’ and it had the perfect stamp for my card.
Happy Birthday – dear sister
May 12th is my sister, Susie’s, birthday ~ she is 7 years younger than me and lives in the UK, so I don’t get to see too much of her. While I was always the one who followed the rules (some might say something of a fuddy duddy) she was the one who pushed the envelope and got away with it (mostly!) She is now the proud mother of 4 children and Nanna to 2 grandbabies – it amazes me that my baby sister is a grandmother!!!
Hello again …… Flower Shop by Stampin’ Up!
It is some time since I last used the Flower Shop Stamp Set ~ I was asked to make some cards and was browsing my stamp shelf for some inspiration and there is was, just perfect for the kind of card I wanted to make.
Painted Petals ……1 card…… 2 occasions……
In keeping with what is becoming a little bit of a series…….. using one card layout but showing that they can easily be used for different occasions by simply changing the sentiment. Stampin’ Up!’s wonderful variety of stamp sets makes it so easy!
Hello Darling…… again….
There is more to this stamp set than I thought! I chose to use it for my April Card Class and made a really unusual fold card which started with a piece of 12 x 12 card stock! The Hello Darling contains a variety of images which, at first, did not work together for me, but once I started ‘playing’ was able to produce a number of different designs.
Swallow Tail Butterfly Thank you
I probably make more thank you cards than for any other occasion and I usually make at least 2 of the same design ~ once you have out the inks and ribbon it is just as easy to do everything twice.
Hello Darling……1 card…… 2 occasions……
I needed to make a ‘thank you’ card for a friend, well you have to cut a piece of 11 x 8 1/2 in 2 pieces to start the card and you already have your stamps, ink and embellishments out, so why not just make up both halves……..
