My Blog Top Twelve Cards from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog

 Today is the last day that the 2021-22 Annual Catalog is active, so I thought it might be fun to revisit some of my favorite cards made in the last year. I will admit some of the cards also came from the July to December 2021 Mini Catalog and the January to June 2022 Mini Catalog, but they fall within this time frame so I am letting them count too.

The link to each blog post about the cards are below each photo.

























Thanks for taking a walk down memory lane with me. I'd love to know in the comments which card or project is your favorite of this collection.

Sweet Strawberry Summertime Card

This is the final card to share from my July Stamp and Chat Classes. Another fruity card, but this time Strawberries!  This layout was cased from the StampingNinja.com


These beauties came from my garden in July. The plants are going crazy with berries this year. I think they love the combination of warmer weather and consistent watering via our timer system.

The berries above look really close to the artist inspired berries on the Designer Series Paper below, don't you think?


Here's how to make this card!

Products Needed and Dimensions:

Poppy Parade Cardstock card base 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4"
Basic White inner card layer 4" x 5-1/4"
Retired Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper 4" x 5-1/4" and 2-3/4" square
Basic White punched with 2-1/4" Circle Punch and another piece punched with 1" Circle Punch
4" piece of 2019 3/8" Sale-a-Bration Organza Ribbon in Granny Apple Green
Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and Punch
Poppy Parade Ink for berries and Granny Apple Green in for leaves
Pearl Jewels for embellishment
------------------------------
Tomorrow is the Big Day - The new Fall Mini Catalog goes live and so does the Second Sale-a-Bration offering for this year. If you need catalogs be sure to let me know via the contact tab.

Have a sunny summer day!

Sweet Strawberry Bundle & Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper

The minute I saw the Sweet Strawberry Bundle in the Jan.-June 2021 Mini Catalog and then saw the Berry Blessings stamp set and Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper in the Jan-Feb. 2021 Sale-a-Bration brochure I knew I HAD to have them both, because they reminded me of SUMMER, my GARDEN area, and the Triple Berry Cherry Yogurt that I adore to eat in June and July.

I grow strawberries in part of my raised garden beds that my wonderful hubby built for me about 5 years ago. They are the two far right beds. At the far left are blueberry and raspberry plants. So when summer comes each year, I love having a breakfast that includes filling a bowl with home grown sliced strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries that I've mixed with Dannon Greek Light & Fit Cherry flavored yogurt. YUMMMM!

Berry Blessings Stamp Set
Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper


The Triple Strawberry card layout was inspired by Su Mohr, but I changed it up a bit with using the strawberry piece of the Designer Series Paper behind the largest Stitched So Sweetly rectangular scalloped die. Then I used the Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to highlight the "seeds" on the three strawberries.

Additional supplies included Garden Green card base, Garden Green ink, Poppy Parade ink, the third largest Stitched So Sweetly rectangular scalloped die in Basic White along with the Sweet Strawberry Bundle.
 


Multiple Demonstrator's have shared their Corner Flip cards online lately, and since I had never tried one, I decided to use the Strawberry "collection" to make a couple. As you'll see below, what a difference in how a card looks when you flip the same sheet of Designer Series Paper over! LOL!  It just depends on what look you desire.



These two cards above are not too hard to make, but there is a trick to conserve Designer Series Paper (DSP) and get the side you want to show cut correctly!

1) Start with a 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" card base, score at 4-1/4".

2) With a ruler and pencil mark 3-1/2" lightly from the top right corner when the card is folded, in both vertical and horizontal directions. Those two tick marks laid on the cutting line of your paper trimmer,  then run the SCORING blade from end to end to create the diagonal fold. Burnish with a bone folder.  (Don't glue down yet!)

3)  Cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of the chosen DSP. Decide which side you want on the card front. THEN flip the paper over and place the approx. 2-7/8" (outside frame measurement) Layering Square die in the upper right corner. Run through your die cutting machine.

4) Adhere the remainder piece of DSP to the card front, just trimming with paper snips the small portions that cross over the diagonal score line. Then you may glue down the diagonal flap. Set a weight on it to dry.

5) While the card front is drying. Cut the 3" (outside frame measurement) Layering Square Scalloped Die from the contrasting cardstock that you will mount the DSP square on. Pay attention to which side you want up!

6)  Cut a 3" square of matching cardstock and adhere the two layers you made in step 3 and 5.

7) Adhere the 3 square layers to the diagonal flap making sure left and bottom edges line up, but only placing glue on the flap portion, not the full square or else you'll have a mess!

8) Cut a 4" x 5-1/4" card liner from Basic White. Adhere inside card.

9) Cut a 4-1/4" x 1/2" strip of cardstock and adhere to card front as shown in photo.

10) Select greeting of your choice and punches or dies that will give you a two layer tag you can raise up with Dimensionals to finish the card.

Have fun with these products and making these cards!

Happy Stamping!

Want to see some more of my favs? Well scroll on down!


If you missed seeing the catalog online yesterday, check it out below.


Here we go.....

Hydrangea Hill Suite Collection 155985 $88.50

I especially love the Hydrangea Haven stamp set (photopolymer), Hydrangea Dies, Designer Series Paper, the Pastel  Pearls, and the Gorgeous Grape  3/8" sheer ribbon!

The beautiful coordinating colors are Rococo Rose, Highland Heather, Seaside Spray, Misty Moonlight, and Old Olive. Such beauty!






Since I grow blueberries, raspberries and strawberries in my garden and they produce like crazy each year, I just had to have this set! So cheery and bright!

Sweet Strawberry Bundle 156214 $32.25 (save 10% off buying the two items separately)

Also shown is the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper which is part of a combo set with the Berry Blessings Stamp Set in the new Sale-a-Bration brochure that you can earn with $100 order before shipping and tax.

Magenta Madness cardstock 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" and ink

One of my cards samples to show how beautiful this stamp set is. Just make sure your stamp pads are well inked to get these sharp, crisp images!



Backgrounds to Borders  15442 $16.00

This set has been so fun to play with, especially making repeating patterns to fill a background. Since the stamp is photopolymer, it is super easy to line up the images and stack the borders one on top of the other to make a sharp background effect.





Here's one of my card ideas by repeating the dots vertically twice. 
Such an awesome effect and so easy to do!
