Hey there! It's time again for the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! Our theme for August is "Cards That Move"!

I decided to re-visit a card fold that I just recently learned, the Pop-Up! Flip, only this time I am featuring the Sale-a-bration Freebie, Delicate Dahlias, and the In Color, Fresh Freesia!

I stamped the Fresh Freesia layer  with the open bloom and  a tiny solids leaf with Fresh Freesia ink, cut the opening with a Layering Circle die, then embossed the layer with the Macrame 3D embossing folder. I stamped Basic White with both of the dahlia stamps, cut with the same Layering Circle die, then stamped around the edges with the solid leaf image and Soft Succulent ink.

I tied a knot of Soft Succulent 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and added a few Pastel Pearls for adornment.

I stamped the inside with the same  colors, and added a sentiment from Sunny Sentiments.

,

Now it's time to move on to the next blog on the hop! All you need to do is click on any of the names in the list below! Happy stamping!

Hey there! Today I have another card that moves, a Pop-Up! Slider, created with the Delicate Dahlias Sale-a-bration set, and Best Year!

A simple pull on the string and the top slides up and the middle folds to reveal the sentiments!

I heat embossed the dahlias with white embossing powder on the Blushing Bride layer. I added a few pink Pastel Pearls for embellishment.

I heat embossed "hello" from Delicate Dahlias with white powder, then simply cut around it with my Paper Trimmer.

I stamped the lower sentiment with Early Espresso ink, leaving just enough room to sign the card.

The top sentiment, also from Best Year. I used the top of the smooth hear punch from the Heart Punch Pack to cut the half-circle at the top of the slider layer.

Here's a video showing the basics of making this card. It's not the same one, but you can adapt the cutting, scoring, and the general making of the card to the one I've made!

Hey there! School started yesterday for my Liam & Darcy, which means I am back to babysitting for their baby sister, Fiona! With back-to-school also comes thoughts of fall, and I've been playing a bit with the Pretty Pumpkins bundle from the July-December Mini Catalog, aka Holiday Catalog!

I used a new-to-me fun-fold, the Pop-Up-Flip along with the new Timber 3D embossing folder and copper heat embossing.

Tip: Always stamp or heat-emboss your sentiment before you dry emboss with your folder and Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine!

I love the detail of this copper heat-embossed pumpkin, cut with one of the Detailed Pumpkins Dies!

I cut this pumpkin from Copper Brushed Metallic card stock, a returning favorite to the Holiday Mini!

When you open the card the focal point pumpkin from the front pops up inside!

I stamped the pumpkins with Cajun Craze ink and copper heat-embossed the sentiment.

Here's a video by JanB from the UK that will show you the easy mechanism for this card:

Hey there! Today I have a couple of cards to share with you that I created with Daisy Garden and Many Messages! I wanted the daisies to have a blue hue , so I stamped Daisy Garden with Misty Moonlight before coloring with Stampin' Blends:
 
I used the Stamparatus to stamp the daisies. It is a large stamp, so using the Stamparatus makes it easier to get good inking and if you need to re-ink to fill in a faint spot you can! I colored around the daisies with a Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends, filled in the centers with Light Daffodil Delight, and colored the stems & leaves with Light Old Olive.

Inside and out I used sentiments from the Many Messages stamp set, cut with the Messages Die.

Supplies to order:

Daisy Garden Cling Stamp Set [155079] $22.00	Misty Moonlight 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [153081] $8.75	Many Messages Cling Stamp Set [154510] $22.00

Hey there! Last night we went to a surprise 16th birthday party for Ava, our second-oldest granddaughter. I had bought a pretty pair of bracelets for her, but needed a gift box for it, so I decided to make a matching card and box!

I used the Color & Contour stamps with Scalloped Contours Dies to create this pop & twist card. The colors are Coastal Cabana, Polished Pink, and Daffodil Delight.

I added a Loose Flower Flourish with a glue dot, and then added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel with a tiny dot of liquid glue.

The pop & twist fun-fold:

The sentiment if from Color & Contour.

Here's a link to a video with the directions to make the pop & twist fun fold:

I used the same color combo to create the box for the bracelets.

I cut the tags with two of the Tailor Made Tags dies, then embellished with Polished Pink 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon.

I used another Loose Flower Flourish and Rhinestone. The sentiment is from Best Year.

I learned how to make this box from this video by Sam Donald in the UK:

Supplies to order:

Color & Contour Bundle (English) [158356] $50.25	Scalloped Contours Dies [155560] $35.00	Happiest Of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set (English) [152539] $19.00

Hey there! Today I have another birthday card I created for one of my grandchildren. I created this fun-fold card for Cyndal's 3rd birthday with the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch:

I used a pretty soft-rainbow print from the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper pack, then chose the rest of my card stock and ink colors to coordinate. I love this pack of paper, you can only get it when you have Host Rewards from your order, but it contains 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 double-sided designs, so it is a great value to use your Host Rewards on! I stamped the ice cream with Flirty Flamingo ink, both full-strength, and then a second time with the leftover ink on the stamp. I stamped the cone with Pale Papaya and Crumb Cake. I punched it all with the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch.

I stamped the HAPPY repeatedly with the Stamparatus, using the hinge-step technique. Both the bold and the curvy "happy" are from the Biggest Wish stamp set.

Inside is a fun-fold I don't know the name for. I CASED the fold from a card I received in a swap. It's super easy but so fun!

Each flap I stamped another ice cream scoop and one of the Sweet Ice Cream sentiments.

The middle flap is stamped all with Biggest Wish.

I love that the Sweet Ice Cream set includes the sprinkles stamps!

Final inside sentiment!

Hey there! I'm late posting this morning because my internet was down last night. I tried and tried to get it to come back up, but sometimes you just have to give it up, give it to God, and go to bed, so that's what I did.

I have internet this morning, so before it goes back down I wanted to get this Turtle Friends card posted for you:

As you probably already know, I try to make a special birthday card for each of my grandchildren. I used the Give It A Whirl Dies to create this card for Oakley's 8th birthday.

I adhered a print from the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper to a layer of Basic White before cutting with the front layer Give It A Whirl Die.

I held it all together with a black square brad from the Round & Square Brads pack. The Give It a Whirl Dies even cut the holes to attach the pieces together so everything lines up perfect!

Such a cute punny sentiment from Turtle Friends!

It's time to shell-ebrate!

Hey there! Today I have a birthday card to share with you that I created with the Mountain Air stamp set, Majestic Mountain dies, and the Evergreen Border Punch!

I used the Double Z-fold for this masculine card.

I used sentiments from the Best Year stamp set with Tuxedo Black ink.

I stamped the mountains with both Smoky Slate and Night of Navy ink, and the treeline with Evening Evergreen. I stamped the clouds with stamped-off Smoky Slate, and colored the sky with a Light Balmy Blue Stampin' Blend. I cut out a tree from Evening Evergreen card stock with a Majestic Mountain die.

Not much room to sign this one, so I will put a Basic White layer on the back.
