Masculine Double Z-Fold Video

It’s time for another addition of Watch it Wednesday.  Today, I’ve got a Fun Fold Video featuring the Mixed Drinks stamp set.  This fun stamp set is retiring the end of May, which is so sad because it’s such a great set for so many occasions.

I’ve also used the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack which makes such great masculine cards.

Last week I shared this card, which is the same exact layout and I asked if you wanted to see a video and get the directions and dimensions for the card.

Well, many of you were interested in knowing how to make it, so I got busy and created a video with the masculine version.  If you want to make the one with the Flying Home stamp set, just swap out Rich Razzleberry, Sweet Sugarplum, Pear Pizzazz and Whisper White cardstock for the Early Espresso, Wood Texture, So Saffron and Very Vanilla.

Flying Home for Spring

With pastel colors from the Stampin’ Up! Subtle’s color family and flowers, and a neighborhood of birdhouses, this card surely depicts Spring in my neighborhood.  I used the Flying Home stamp set, which I so dearly love and will be sad to see it go.  This is one of the many stamp sets that are on the list of retiring product.

Not only is the Flying Home stamp set retiring, so are the Lots of Labels Framelits and the Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper, as well as the Peekaboo Peach cardstock and the Soft Sky and Peekaboo Peach Markers.  Want to know what else is leaving us by the end of the month(or before, because it’s only while supplies last), then click on the links below to see the full list of retiring product from the Annual Catalog as well as the Occasions Catalog.

Butterfly Basics Birthday Card

Today’s card was a favorite at my Stamp & Go Card Club last week.  First of all it features shades of blue which is always a winner with this group of stampers.  Nearly everything I used on this card is retiring product as I wanted to feature some of the fabulous product before their gone for good.  All images and sentiment are from the Butterfly Basics stamp set.
