So Much Happy for PP499

 Happy Sunday! Time for a new creative challenge over at The Paper Players. 

This week, LeAnne is hosting our monthly Color Challenge.  

Check it out and play along with us!

This is really a lovely color combo, isn’t it? There is just something about the mix of gray with soft yellow and blue. I had so many ideas with this color combo, from using florals to a a baby card. Oddly enough, my finished card didn’t check either of those boxes. Haha! I did really enjoy working with these colors and it will definitely be going in the “file of favorites” for sure. 

I have listed all of the measurements and details for this card below along with a full supply list at the very end of this post. 

I recently received an order with the So Much Happy Bundle and have been itching to ink it up. The So Much Happy stamp set is perfect to celebrate so many occasions and the coordinating Happy Dies have lots of fun shapes and details. I especially love that big, bold “HAPPY” sentiment! It’s tough to see in the photos, but I spritzed on some sparkly detail all over the Seaside Spray layer using some Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint mixed with rubbing alcohol. It’s super sparkly in-person! 

Card Measurements and Details: 

• So Saffron Card Base - 4-1/4” x 11”, scored at 5-1/2” 
• Whisper White Cardstock  - 4” x 5-1/4”, embossed with Subtle 3D Embossing Folder
• Seaside Spray Cardstock - 3-7/8” x 5-1/8”, die cut the word “Happy” at an angle using the Happy Dies, also emboss the textured detail above and below the word using the strip from the Happy Dies
• Spritz the entire piece of Seaside Spray Cardstock with a mixture of Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint and rubbing alcohol (70% or less) in a Stampin’ Spritzer
• So Saffron Cardstock - scrap to die cut three banners from the Happy Dies
• Whisper White Cardstock - scrap to stamp two small balloons in So Saffron ink and one large balloon in Seaside Spray ink, die cut using Happy Dies
• Smoky Slate Cardzrtock - scrap to die cut three balloon strings from Happy Dies
• Whisper White Cardstock - 1/2” x 2-1/2”, stamp sentiment is Smoky Slate ink and snip off either end at an angle
• Add twine bow and rhinestones
• Whisper White Cardstock (inside card) - 4” x 5-1/4 

Finally, a peek inside the card. I simply stamped a sentiment and another big balloon to keep the party going from the front of the card.

Pampered Pets for Facebook Live

Hello everyone! For my Facebook Live video this week, I featured three fun / fancy fold cards using the Pampered Pets Suite in the Stampin’ Up!® Annual Catalog. This suite features the Pampered Pets stamp set and the coordinating Pets Dies. To check out the video for how these projects were made, click here: Pampered Pets Facebook Live.

On Friday at 4:00 PM CST, I go Live over on my Stampin’ Anne Facebook Page with some fun Stampin’ Up!® projects. Please join me and if you can’t make it Live, you can always watch the replay. Also, I’d like to invite you to join my Stampin’ Anne Facebook Group for more updates, promotions, giveaways and exclusive projects. Everyone is welcome!

The first card starts out as a Gatefold card with some added fancy details! I originally found the idea for this style of card over on Pinterest which led me to BJ Peters’ blog. I made another card with this fold this past week and you can see it HERE. 

**I also want to mention that I have a link to a downloadable PDF with measurements for all of these projects listed toward the end of this post. 

Don’t you love the way this card opens? It’s a great fold to use up some of that Designer Series Paper we are all stockpiling, too. Just me? Haha! 

My second project is this adorable kitty card using another fun fold. What I love about this card is that even though it has a cool 3D effect, it still folds up to mail flat in an envelope! Pretty cool, right? 

I’ve made a couple other cards using this fold, you can see them HERE and HERE. 

The final card was inspired by a fun fold that I received in a swap from my sweet friend Kurstan Del Rosario. I was kind of winging it for the design of this card on the video but I do like how it came together. I rarely use Pacific Point so it was fun to create this one Live. 

***All of the measurements / details for these three projects can be found on the

 PDF Project Sheets found by clicking HERE***
