Forever Blossoms Z-Fold for Coast to Coast CASEing

Welcome to the April edition of Coast to Coast CASEing.  This month Karen did a fabulous job with her card.  Not only is it a beautiful card but it’s also a fun fold.  Check out Karen Hallam’s post HERE

For my card, I decided to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) the Z-fold. I’m guilty of not doing enough fun fold cards.  This one was a lot of fun, so I really need to try more.

  • Using the Forever Blossoms stamp set, stamp the floral spray 3x and color using Stampin’ Blends.
  • Adhere the spray to the first panel.  I cut the second spray and added a few blooms to the spray.  Then I cut just the flowers from the third spray and added them over the top of the glued flowers to create dimensional flowers.
  • Clear Wink of Stella and a small pearl were added to each flower.
  • The second panel is stamped with a sentiment from the Forever Blossoms stamp set.
  • A strip of DSP and cardstock is added to the bottom.

  • The third panel is embellished with another colored floral spray.
  • The sentiment, also from the Forever Blossoms stamp set, is stamped in Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. It’s cut with a die from the Oval Layering dies.  I layered it with another Oval cut from Vellum and popped it with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • I added a trio of pearls to the upper right corner for a pretty finishing touch.

Ornate (Country) Style Mother’s Day Card

Hello…I hope you had a pleasant Easter.  Ours was certainly an unusual one.  My husband and I did our grocery shopping at 6 a.m.  Honestly, since we’re under a mandatory stay-at-home order here in PA, grocery shopping is about the only time we leave our neighborhood.  And we’re fortunate that it’s about the most stressful thing we have to deal with, unlike many others who are facing much more difficult  circumstances.  Well, I’m also lucky to have a wonderful stress-reliever in stamping and I know that’s why you’re here, so here’s my card for today…

Details

  • Glue the Gingham DSP panel to the left side of the Rococo Rose cardstock.
  • Stamp the sentiment, from the Honey Bee stamp set, in the lower right corner of the Rococo Rose panel with Versa Mark ink and heat emboss with white embossing powder.  The stamparatus comes in very handy for this, both for accurate placement and to ensure good coverage of the Versa Mark.
  • Wrap a piece of 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon to cover the seam created by the DSP.

  • Stamp the floral image from the Ornate Style stamp set on Crumb Cake cardstock with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
  • Hand cut the image.  It’s not hard at all!  Adhere to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Stamp a small butterfly using the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and Rococo Rose ink.  Punch it with the Butterfly Duet punch and adhere to the floral image with a mini glue dot.
  • A few Glitter Enamel Dots (retired) are scattered on the card.

  • For the inside, I combined two stamp sets, Beautiful Bouquet and Tea Together,  to create a Mother’s Day greeting.

Even though my husband and I no longer have our moms with us, I do enjoy sending Mother’s Day cards to friends.  It’s certainly a day worth celebrating and worthy of a handmade card!

I hope you’ll come back tomorrow for another installment of Coast to Coast CASEing.

Ornate Gift Card Holders & Tutorial

Yesterday I posted three gift card holders featuring the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper. It was great fun creating these for the Pals Blog Hop.  You can see them HERE.

I’ve also had a few requests for a tutorial. While I’m happy to share my card details on almost all of my posts, there are projects that I create to share exclusively with my customers as a thank you gift.  This month I’m featuring the Ornate Garden Suite and offering 3 free tutorials along with sending one of these handmade gift card holders.  I understand that some of my followers are also demonstrators who would not want to place an order.  In order to still reward my customers with a special gift as well as honor the tutorial requests, I’m offering a gift card holder and tutorial for $5 (includes postage).  Here are the Ornate Garden gift card holders.

Stampin Up Ornate Garden Gift Card Holders - Rosanne Mulhern stampinup

I purposely didn’t include a sentiment on the front.  This way they can be used for any occasion simply by adding your own stamped sentiment.  I actually think they are pretty just as is…IMHO!

…and here is the inside.  Again, it’s blank for your own stamped sentiment or handwritten note.

To order the gift card holder and tutorial, please send me an email with Ornate Garden Gift Card Holder & Tutorial in the subject line.  Please be sure to include your mailing address.  You can send payment via PayPal or by mailing a check.  If paying through PayPal and since I will not be sending an invoice, you’ll need to use the “send a friend” option.  Here’s how:  Go to Paypal.com, sign in or register for an account, click “Send” and fill in my email address (romulhern@gmail.com).  Click “next”, then “send to a friend”, fill in the amount ($5), and continue.  I’ll send the card in the mail and email the tutorial.

*Please Note*  All cards will have the Ornate Garden DSP. However the coordinating DSP may differ from the pictures here.  I guarantee they will still be just as pretty!

Thanks very much for the kind comments and emails regarding these cards.  I truly love this hobby and I’m happy if any of my projects inspire you to create your own.

Please take care,

Rosanne

Special Occasion Gift Card Holders – Pals Blog Hop

Welcome to the Pals’ Blog Hop! While the COVID 19 pandemic is adding stress to our lives, we Pals hope this blog hop will help to lift your spirits. Let us inspire you to take a creative break and relax for a little while. This month our theme is “Special Occasions” where we have made a project for just about any occasion you can think of! You’ll find the full line-up below to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Special Occasion Gift Card Holder Ideas - Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

Today I’m sharing some pretty gift card holders for several different occasions.  I had such a good time combing through my stamps and supplies to come up with just the right sentiments and embellishments for each one.  I pulled from a lot of different stamp sets and dies to create this pretty trio. While each card is different, they all have a few things in common.

  • I used the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper on each of them.  The floral images in this 6 x 6 paper collection are simply beautiful.
  • The pretty scalloped trim on each front flap is from the Ornate Border dies.
  • On the inside, I used a small Stitched Rectangle to cut the opening for the gift card.

Here’s a look at each one….

Special Occasion Gift Card Holder Ideas -Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

Obviously, the occasion here is a birthday.  I used the Label Me Pretty stamp set and heat embossed the image in white embossing powder, then punched it with the coordinating Pretty Label punch.  The small flowers are from the Bouquet Bunch dies.

The inside sentiment is from the Beautiful Friendship stamp set and is stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink.

Special Occasion Gift Card Holders Idea - Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

For a special Thank You, the sentiment from the So Sentimental stamp set worked well.  It’s stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink and cut using the coordinating Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The flower is stamped using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink and hand cut.

I reached for the Painted Harvest stamp set for the inside sentiment here.  Again, it’s stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink.

Special Occasion Gift Card Holder Ideas-Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

I chose this one as a Mother’s Day card.  I thought the sentiment, from the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set was perfect.  It’s stamped in Melon Mambo ink and cut out with the Layering Oval dies.  The flowers were also stamped from the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and cut with the coordinating Bouquet Bunch dies.

Special Occasion Gift Card Holder Ideas- Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

The inside sentiment is from the Tea Together stamp set. This one is my favorite.  I created this to send to my daughter, Emily, for Mother’s Day.  I’m hoping I’ll be able to spend some time with her that day but I guess that’s still uncertain.  So I wanted something especially pretty to give her with a gift card.

I’ll be posting another gift card holder tomorrow using the Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper.  I’ll also have a tutorial offer for these cards.  You can see those HERE.

More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created!
