Otterly Amazing Bundle Class To Go Day 3-VIDEO

Today is day 3 of a new class to go series!  This week I'm featuring the Otterly Amazing Bundle!  I'm so smitten with these cute otters!  This bundle is so much fun!!  My daughter is a huge fan and advocate for otters, specifically river otters so this bundle is perfection!  She's even written three books about otters.  If you're interested they're on Amazon herehere and here. This week I'll be sharing four cards and each card will have a video and measurements.  When you place a qualifying order in my Online Store by November 15, 2024 you'll get this class completely FREE mailed to you!  That's it, there's no sign up or form to fill out, you get the class free with a $50+ order!  Feel free to substitute images or greetings if you don't want to make it just like me.  This bundle is in the new Online Exclusive Release available now!

This adorable card has a fun split front.  I used a Window Sheet to hold it together, giving the illusion that the card front is two pieces.  It's fun technique to try! I used heat embossing for my greeting for a pop of white.  Don't forget to add some stamping inside the card too, for a fun surprise.

I love today's card!  I used Stampin' Blends to create the look that our sweet otter is swimming and that he's partially under water. It's so cute!  I was inspired with this card by one of the examples on the Stampin' Up! website.  We also added lots of depth and texture with lots of die cut elements.  I added Wink of Stella to the fish to really give them some shimmer!

Today I'm sharing such a cute fun fold card. It's a variation of a bridge card and there's so many cute layers to it.  The DSP and die cuts add lots of fun texture and dimension so that everywhere you look is a new and adorable piece of eye candy!  I heat embossed my sentiment with white embossing powder.  I love the pop of white on a darker cardstock.  My otters are colored with Stampin' Blends.

Twelve Weeks Of Christmas Week 6-Sentimental Christmas Diagonal Top Kit Kat Box

Week 6! This series is half over and I still have so much to share! Today's adorable box will be your go to box this season!  It's simple enough to make a bunch of, so make one for everyone on your list this season! I'm showcasing the Sentimental Christmas DSP this week.  This DSP is festive and vintage and packed with nostalgia.  Plus, this DSP is special because with every purchase of it Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to support childrens literacy programs around the world.  In addition to the DSP there has to be a little stamping, so I'm using a greeting from the Greetings Of The Season Set and some bells from the Reindeer Fun Set.  Look through your Christmas sets, you probably already have stamp sets that will work great for this! 

stampin up, sentimental Christmas

The stocking is fussy cut directly from the DSP, though the dies from coordinating Sentimental Wishes Bundle would likely cut them out too.  The wow factor from this box comes from the diagonal top lid.  I love this type of lid, it's so easy to do but look sooooo fancy and impressive! I finished the box with some pearls and some NEW Gold Thread.  You can get the Gold Twisted Thread on November 5, 2024 with the launch of the new Online Exclusives.

Happiest Day Dragonflies

I'm excited to share this gorgeous card with you.  I'm using the Happiest Day Stamp Set in the Annual Catalog, it's a great set!  I decided to pair it up with the Perennial Lavender DSP.  This is a DSP from a past mini catalog that carried into the Annual Catalog. I used 4 different DSP patterns and layered them up to really add some depth and detail to the card.  Layering them on the diagonal adds lots of great interest for your eyes too.  

stampin up, happiest day

There are no dies or punches in this set so the two dragonflies were fussy cut.  The greeting is so fun.  I can think of lots of people I'd give this card to. To finish the card I used some Gorgeous Grape Glossy Dots and some Crumb Cake twine from the Essential's Baker's Twine Package. 

Measurements

Gorgeous Grape 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" score the long side at 4 1/4"

Crumb Cake 2" x 4"

Basic White pieces for stamping and die cutting/fussy cutting
