Today I have a scrapbook page - intro page to my 2020 album. Here's a video that shows how I made it:
The background paper was from my stash - no idea where I got it - but the cardstock (Pretty Peacock) & doves (fussy cut from Peaceful Garden DSP) are from Stampin' Up! I used a flip flap for the journaling (though I may remove it and move some of it to the next page).

Today I have a couple of cards I made for special birthdays, both using the Birthday Song stamp set - currently on last chance sale.
This first one (above) is for my SIL who loves flamingos - an easel card. You can see it as placed for display below:

The card base is Flirty Flamingo - and of course, Basic White. The patterned paper is from the older Otterly Adorable DSP. I used Stampin' Blends to color the stamped image, and then die cut the focal using a die from Textured Notes die set.
And here's the one for my DB - the world traveler:

It is a vertical easel - see next picture - set for display:

I used a camera I made using dies a friend had (I think they were Spellbinders) and scraps from my stash. The background paper was from Take to the Sky DSP, and matted with Smoky Slate cardstock. You can see the inside below where I used the stamps.

Do you like the papers that have gorgeous foiled elements on them? Today's cards make use of Stampin' Up!s new Hot Foil System for making our own foiled embellishments and focals!!! SO EASY, and SO COOL! You can see how I made the Hot Foiled elements here:
And how I created the cards here:
Below are closeups of the cards and a quick look at how I made them.
Today is the second of the two-part look at the Exploring Nature Scrapbooking Workshop Kit from Stampin' Up! Last time I showed the kit and how I adapted the first layout. This time, I've got the last two layouts. You can see the video showing how I made them & the changes I made here:
Today I have two more Fold-Back styles - a Banded Fold-Back Focal, and a Double Fold Back - both made from a set of papers called Floral Delight. At the end of this post, I'll add a bonus basic Fold-Back card using these papers.
To see how I made these first two cards, check out the video below:
Today is the first of a two-part look at the Exploring Nature Scrapbooking Workshop Kit from Stampin' Up! I LOVE their kits! They make creating scrapbook layouts so much faster, and I am enjoying seeing how I can adapt them to suit my own photos EVEN BETTER! You can see a video presentation of what was in the kit, the coordinating products I purchased (because I love this kit so much I want to make a LOT of additional coordinating pages), and how I adapted the first layout here:

Today I have two special Fold Back cards that I made for class - and then a bonus fold back card. The first is called a Banded Fold Back, and the second is a Double Decker Fold Back. I first saw the second one on Susan Campfield's website. She called it something else - perhaps a double decker pop up? I don't remember for sure. Mine is quite similar but probably not identical since I didn't actually look at how she made it.
Anyway, both of these cards start with a basic fold back card and then add in some fun. Simply take a standard 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" card base and score & fold it in half at 4 1/4" as normal. Then score the card front in half at 2 1/8" and fold the card front back along that fold line. This forms your basic fold back card. You can see the cards below to see how the banded fold back and double decker fold back take it from there.
I used papers from the gorgeous Moonlit Flora paper collection from Stampin' Up! To watch how I made these check out the video below.
Here's a quick overview with photos.
