Angela's PaperArts: Take to the Sky Floating Panel Father's Day card

It's Father's Day today here in Australia and I made this card for my Dad.

It's a Floating Panel card aka Pop-up Panel card and also acts like an easel card due to the way it's propped open on the side.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Take To The Sky and Adventurous Sky bundle Floating Panel Father's Day card

The card features the Stampin' Up! Take to the Sky designer series paper and Spotlight on Nature circle dies. I did use a retired stamp set for the plane on my card, but the current Adventurous Sky stamp & die bundle is similar and was made to co-ordinate with the Take To The Sky paper too.

Here's an overhead view of the card where you can see how the focal embellishment 'floats' above the card base.

It does fold flat for posting too.

Angela's PaperArts: City Sights 18th birthday easel card

The new Stampin' Up! City Sights card kit is terrific for quick & easy cards.

I also stepped up one of the kit card fronts by creating this 18th birthday easel card.  The 'Celebrate' sentiment is from the Wanted to Say die set.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Seasons of Green & Gold Christmas card

I'm loving the gold foiling touches in the Stampin' Up! Online Exclusive Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Season of Green & Gold christmas card

While this paper is part of the broader suite with a co-ordinating stamp & die bundle, I simply fussy cut the focal elements from one of the sheets of paper in the pack. It's an economical way to create a card.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey sympathy card

Do you struggle to make sympathy cards?

If so, the beautiful Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey paper makes things easier as it doesn't need much embellishment to create this style of card.

The sentiment embellishment was created using the Wild Ferns die set.

Angela's PaperArts: Christmas in July

Have you started your Christmas card making as yet?

I often start making my Christmas cards in July so there's no last minute rush to get them done on time. This is the first card for the year. 

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Spotlight on Nature and Unbounded Love dies Christmas card

While the papers are remnants from last year, I did use the current Spotlight on Nature circular dies and the wreath is from the Lifetime of Love die set to create this card.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey slimline birthday card

I often mix and match Stampin' Up! products to create a card or other project.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Thoughtful Journey slimline birthday card

In this example, my slimline card was created using patterned paper from the Unbounded Beauty pack and diecuts from the Thoughtful Journey and Something Fancy die sets.

Here's how I decorated inside the card.

Angela's PaperArts: Round We Go birthday Z fold card

This month I've been featuring the versatile Stampin' Up! Round We Go stamp & die bundle. For this card I used the dies to create a flower instead of a rosette embellishment. I used the Bough Punch to create the leaves.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Round We Go floral birthday Z fold card

I realise these dies are meant to embellish either the stamped or diecut rosette, but they also looked like they could be used as flower petals too. What do you think?

Here's a side view of the card.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Round We Go floral birthday Z fold card

Here are the dies I used to create the flower on the card. I mixed & matched the diecuts, but you could make the flower by die-cutting two of the same and layering them together.

This bundle, along with other stamp & die bundles and machines, is discounted until 30 June.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Hip Hip Hooray rosette card

I've made another card this week using the  versatile Stampin' Up! Round We Go stamp & die bundle. I made this Z fold card with the bundle and the Take To the Sky designer series paper.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Round We Go birthday card

Here's a side view of the card.
Angela's PaperArts: Stampin Up Round We Go birthday card

To assemble the rosette diecuts from the Round We Go set, simply:

  1. Diecut 2 rosette strips
  2. Add adhesive onto the rosette diecut tabs
  3. Concertina the strips along the scorelines & adhere together to form a circle.
  4. Gather the top of the circle together and press down to form the rosette. Adhere a cardstock circle onto the centre of the front & back of the rosette to keep it in place.

This bundle, along with other stamp & die bundles and machines, will be discounted from this Wednesday, 5 June, with an 10% off the price.

Angela's PaperArts: Round We Go slimline card

I've been creating with the versatile Stampin' Up! Round We Go stamp & die bundle. I made this slimline card with the bundle and the Wanted to Say die set.


Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Round we go rosette card

Here's a close-up of the rosettes on the card.
Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Round we go rosette card

It's easy to create smaller rosettes too. Simply cut the rosette diecut in half and assemble in the same way as the standard sized rosette.  You do need to diecut two rosette pieces and adhere them together to form the rosette.

You can also choose which outer edge you like to have on the rosette: scallop, zigzag or straight.

Angela's PaperArts: Thoughtful Journey Mother's Day card

I'm getting ready for Mother's Day here in Australia.

I love the new Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey suite and used it to create this Mother's Day card for my Mum.

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey Mother's Day card

I didn't want to waste an inch of this pretty paper, so I cut out the middle and layered it up on dimensionals. 

Angela's PaperArts: Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey Mother's Day card

Am I the only one thinking the florals in this suite look like Scottish thistles?

Inside the card I stamped the 'thistle' stamp using the direct to stamp technique. I coloured the stamp using my Stampin' Write markers instead of the inkpads so I could add two colours onto the stamp at the one time.
