Please Let Me Hear From You

This blog is for sharing a love of paper crafting. I love paper crafting -
and Stampin' Up! products in particular -
and became an independent Stampin' Up!®™ demonstrator early in 2025.
I'd love to be YOUR demonstrator as you buy your Stampin' Up! products.
Full disclosure: I get a small commission on purchases made
using Stampin' Up! links from this website, but this in no way affects your price.
It just serves to help support this blog. Thank you in advance for that support!

It is what helps make the time I put into this blog feel worthwhile, and always brightens my day.

Cutaway Gate Fold


I was playing around and came up with this card structure that I call "Cutaway Gate Fold".  It's pretty easy to make.  You just start with a piece of card stock that is 4 1/4” by 11”. Then you cut on the solid line and score on the dotted lines as per the diagram below (click on it to better see the dimensions):

Serene Love

Today I made some cards using Stampin' Up!'s Serene Love set of papers (currently on a close-out sale). I chose to use the Night of Navy colored papers from this set.  With double sided papers and two different papers in each color, there are a total of 4 patterns in each color.  I used these to prepare some background panels.  All stamping/inking was done with Night of Navy ink.
