Did you play along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’? If you followed the clues you would have created a Double Flap Fun Fold Card similar to these.
Mystery Solved!
Stampin' Up! Jolly Delivery and Love & Courage double flap fun fold card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I love creating fun fold cards, especially when they are simple and have that WOW factor when you open them. Let’s take a closer look at each of today’s cards.
Stampin' Up! Jolly Delivery fun fold Christmas card idea with North Pole Delivery Designer Series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The North Pole Delivery Specialty Designer Series Paper is the star of this card.

Send joyful tidings and merry messages with the designs in the North Pole Delivery 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper! Full of cheer and whimsy, this patterned paper set features dogs, bears, and more animals delivering holiday letters and packages in classic Christmas colors of reds and greens. Plus, you get two sheets of precut images for easy accents! I had many dog choices for the front of my card but had to go with the adorable daschund (His sweater is just too cute!!!). I used two more die cut images on the inside of my card. Here’s how the card opens…

I added an extra piece of DSP on the inside which measures 2 1/2 x 3 3/4. The die cut images are fun and make it so easy to add extra little touches. I used the coordinating stamp set (Jolly Delivery from the North Pole Delivery Suite Collection) for the sentiments on the front and inside.

Deliver cheer to loved ones this holiday season with the Jolly Delivery Stamp Set! With adorable animals, postage-themed images, and charming sentiments, you’ll love crafting cards full of Christmas spirit this year.

My second card this week is in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness this month! I made this card for a friend who is currently going through treatment.

I used the Love & Courage Stamp Set to create the focal piece on this card.

The Love & Courage Stamp Set is made for those affected by breast cancer. For moments when words matter most, these stamps help you create cards that honor both the fighters and the friends who stand by them. Express love, support, encouragement, solidarity, gratitude, and appreciation in a meaningful way with the breast cancer sentiments and images in this stamp set.

Did you know that with each purchase of the Love & Courage Stamp Set, we’ll donate $3 to support the fight against breast cancer around the world? I love that Stampin’ Up! supports this cause that is near and dear to my heart! We hope you’ll join us in making a difference this holiday season.
When you open this card you can see I embossed the DSP and cardstock using the Sunflower 3D embossing folder. I like how it coordinates with the stamped image on the front of the card.

The inside sentiment is from the Peace on Earth Stamp Set. You can view the complete list of products used to create this cards below (as well as in the PDF). I finished this card with a simple stamped envelope to coordinate.

Arched Sunflowers for Tic Tac Toe Challenge #277

~ Jeanie Stark ~ 2 Comments

It’s time for another Tic Tac Toe Challenge!
Here’s this week’s inspiration board.
www.tictactoechallenge.com
I went on the diagonal this week with Red, Free, and Yellow.Stampin" Up! Arched Shaped Sunflower card with sunflower 3D embossing folder-jeanie Stark StampinUp
I often get asked where I get the inspiration for some of the projects I create! I find inspiration in different places. I really love the Tic Tac Toe Challenge! Even though it is considered a “challenge”, I find it so easy to just pick 3 (or more) elements from the board and most of the time just seeing the items in front of me triggers the creative process and ideas just start to evolve. I also like sketches! Choose a design, grab some cardstock /DSP/stamp set, etc. that you have and use the sketch to put it all together. When I feel like I’ve lost my “mojo” (it happens to all of us), I go to Pinterest for ideas! Often when I start to recreate a project I like it ends up totally different as just creating anything tends to jumpstart your creativity! And then there are times when inspiration is delivered…

When I received this catalog in the mail I knew I wanted to recreate the cover using Stampin’ Up!’s Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder and Everyday Arches Dies. (I even had the gold bee embellishments!!) This was so much fun!!!

I created the card base using the largest arch die. You get 10 different sizes in the set!
Stampin' Up! Everyday Arches Dies-visit juststampin.com for handmade inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Add curviness to your cards, scrapbooks, and other paper crafts with the Everyday Arches Dies. This die set has multiple sizes of a classic arch shape. Stamp a greeting or image inside the arch or layer several sizes in different colors for a dimensional look. You can also combine two dies to cut a solid arch, then fill the inside with a die-cut piece of patterned paper to create a picture window.

To create an arch shaped card using the largest die, fold your card base in half. Then with the fold on the left side make sure the die is just slightly over the fold line when you run it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.


I cut a piece of white cardstock with the same arched die then embossed it and colored using my Stampin’ Blends before glueing it to the front of the card. To create the gold arch I cut the largest die and the 3rd largest die together. *Use removable tape or a sticky note to hold them together when running it through the die cut machine. Thats all there is to it! Lastly, I adhered the bee embellishments with liquid glue. I often wait to add my sentiment until I’m ready to send the card. This card could be used for so many different occasions. I love having cards like this on hand for when you need a card quick!

Where do you find inspiration? I’d love to hear from you! Leave a comment below.

I hope you will check out what the rest of the design team created for this week’s Tic Tac Toe Challenge. We would love for you to pick 3 and play along. If you have any questions feel free to reach out!

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Two Quick & Easy Card Techniques with Two-Tone Cardstock!

~ Jeanie Stark ~ Leave a comment

You can make a stunning card quick & easy using Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Cardstock and Black Ink!
Stampin' Up! Beautiful Gallery Fun Fold card idea with Two-Tone Cardstock-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I love a monochromatic card. This simple fun fold showcases both the light and dark side of the two-tone cardstock.

The cardstock base measures 5 1/2″ x 12″ and is scored at 3″, 6 1/2″, and 10 1/2″.
Fold and burnish the score lines folding back and forth (mountain fold, valley fold, mountain fold). The image from Gallery Blooms is stamped in black ink and cut out with the coordinating die. I tied a bow and adhered it to the card with a Mini Glue Dot. The sentiment from Spotlight on Nature is cut out with a die from Unbounded Love and popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The two-tone cardstock has a white core which creates a unique look using the tearing technique.
Stampin' Up! Beautiful Gallery and Your Are Remarkable Fun Fold card idea with Two-Tone Cardstock-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I folded the last score line in on the right side. I tore this piece along the edge to expose the white core (and beautiful texture) then adhered the piece to the inside of the card. The inside image is also from Gallery Blooms and the sentiment is from You Are Remarkable. It stands nicely for display.

I added a panel on the inside for a handwritten message using one of the dies from Textured Notes.

What do you think of the tearing technique? Have you tried it?

I really like to emboss two-tone cardstock. It’s quick & easy! I love how the embossing & sanding technique I used on the card below adds so much texture!
Stampin' Up! Wonderful Thoughts and Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder Thinking of You textured and blended Card Idea-jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used Calypso Coral Two-Tone Cardstock on the front of my card. I embossed it with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder then used my blending brush to add some Pecan Pie ink to the flower centers. After that I used a sanding block and gently rubbed over the front of the cardstock to expose the core. I don’t think my photo does this card justice as it really pops and is just bursting with texture!

There are so many different techniques you can do with two-tone cardstock. I am just getting started! I love to experiment and try new things. Do you have a favorite card/technique from today? I’d love to hear from you! Leave a comment below!
