January 2020 Stamp Class Cards

 I had my stamp classes over the weekend and these are the cards we made.  Get a closer look at them by watching the short video below.

Here's a closer look at the inside of the "fancy fold" cards.


To make these cards:

• Start with a quarter sheet of card stock (4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches) for the base of the card.  I used Flirty Flamingo card stock for the card on the left and real red for the card on the right.
• Cut a coordinating piece of card stock for the mat behind the white part of the card.  For the card on the left, I cut Real Red card stock 3 1/4 x 4 1/2.  For the card on the right, I cut Flirty Flamingo card stock 4 x 5 1/4  Choose the look you like!
• Cut a piece of Whisper White card stock 4 1/4 x 9 3/4 and score the long side at 3 1/4 and 6 1/2
• The Designer Series Paper is cut at 3 x 4 
• Decorate the panels using the Die Cut shapes from the Be Mine Stitched Dies and Meant to Be stamp set

Tutorial: Record Album card

I made a quick video to show you how easy it is to make this cute card using the Music from the Heart stamp set from Stampin' Up!.  You will need the following supplies:

• Basic Black card stock for the card base (5 1/2 x 8 1/2 folded in half)
• Whisper White card stock (4 x 5 1/4 ) You will need one for the front and one for the inside.
• Five circles cut from Black card stock using the 1 1/2 inch punch
• Scraps of any color card stock for the guitar and center of records (I used Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Grapefruit Grove, Daffodil Delight, Terracata Tile.)
• Tuxedo Black Memento Ink

You will also need a 1/2 inch circle punch, 1/8 inch hand held circle punch, paper snips, and adhesive.  I recomend the Tombow Liquid Glue.  And of course you will need the Music from the Heart stamp set and clear blocks.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

More Music from the Heart

I just can't get enough of this stamp set.  Here are three more cards that I made using the Music from the Heart stamp set.  This set was designed by a Stampin' Up! Million Dollar Sales Achiever, Dawn Olchefske, and these are cards that she designed using the stamp set.

This card (above) is the easiest of the cards to make - I just stamped the treble clef and some musical notes onto the card front.  The ink colors I used are: Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, and Grapefruit Grove.  Then I stamped "happy birthday" onto a scrap of Grapefruit Grove and Daffodil Delight card stock.  I cut the words apart using my new mini trimmer from Stampin' Up! and adhered them to the card front. 

 I used the same colors to punch balloons using the Balloon Builder punch, then I stamped on the balloons with Memento black ink.  I stamped the music notes on Whisper White card stock using Grapefruit Grove ink, and used Grapefruit Grove card stock for the card base.  I adhered the balloons to the card using dimensionals and added twine, then added the "happy birthday" sentiment.

This card got the biggest reaction when I shared it at a recent team meeting.  The records are made  using  1 1/2 inch, 1/2 inch, and 1/16 inch punches.  I stamped the guitar (in two steps) on Bermuda Bay card stock - and cut it out with scissors. I popped it up using mini dimensionals and added the "YOU ROCK!" sentiment.

Music From the Heart

Here are several note cards that I made using the Music From the Heart stamp set.  This set was inspired by Million Dollar Sales Achiever, Dawn Olchefske.  Most of these designs are a direct copy of the cards she presented on On Stage.  

After a few inky mistakes when stamping directly on the note cards, I decided to stamp on a piece of white card stock first. That way I didn't let a little smudge ruin the entire card.  I could just turn the white piece of card stock over and stamp again. I layered a red or black mat behind the stamped images.  I think the mat add a little something to the cards.  

Finally, I made a cute box for storing the cards.  Wouldn't this make a great gift for the musician in your life?  

To make the cards, start with a package of Stampin' Up note cards.  Cut black and/or red card stock 3 1/4 x 4 3/4 inches to make mats.  Cut white card stock slightly smaller at 3 1/8 x 4 5/8 inches.  Stamp the images on the white piece, adhere to the mat, then adhere to the note card.  Super easy - and I think the red/white/black is stunning!
