My first card is for a very dear friend... we both share the love of purple. I cased this from Pinterest. Love the various doilies within this set and the stamps are gorgeous as well! Encircled in Friendship Bundle.

This is showing how to do a colored base.

It's never to early to start your Christmas cards.

This was our zoom Mystery Card this week. I found various versions of the Inside Shadow Box Card, but this is the one I liked the best. You can download a FREE Tutorial HERE!

Mine is a graduation card, playing with Galesburg Silver Streak colors... black, gold, silver -- including directions! When I looked at Dillon's pics from a year ago, his gown and hat were gold with a silver tassel. Thanks to Pinterest post by Stampin' Bunny, Rhonda Griffin, for the inspiration.

BASE: 4-1/4 x 8-1/2, score long side @ 2-1/8 at both ends. INSIDE/Greeting: 4" square. TOP HAT: 3" square. HAT...under top full hat to cover-up: 3" square, cut in half diagonally for a triangle... may need to trim a smidgeon on long side. HAT HOLDER: 2 x 2, then scored once in half. SHIRT: 3 x 3 square, cut diagonally, then use one triangle and cut in half again. Envelope: 9" square; with envelope punch board, start at 5-1/4 guide. Finished card approx. 4-1/2 x 6-1/2.

After scoring base, place hat holder fold just over the top in middle section of inside of card. (This shows best above on the 3rd picture down - click to enlarge.) Stamp the 4" square with your inside greeting and adhere to inside. With shirt triangles, lay on front as shown... MAKING SURE the middle points on the front, center match up. I adhered my ribbon with tear tape. I used 1" alpha dies for my numbers. To add the hat, fold 2" scored piece over your greeting layer, add adhesive, lay hat on top diagonally, with points of hat lined up with top of card (inside of base card should be completely open). I made top button on hat with an old die I had x 3 and glued together for dimension. Make tassel with paper or heavy thread and adhere.

Welcome to our Stampin' Stray Ducklings monthly Blog Waddle! This month we are featuring Spring Time. If you need a catalog, make sure to let me know... OR... check it out ONLINE HERE!!! For a complete list of our ducklings waddling, see below. If you are following the waddle, you came from Sheryl's blog... next is Lori's blog.

Nothing says spring time like butterflies! I made this double easel card using the Celebration Labels Dies #153570 from the 2020 Holiday Mini catalog. These are the perfect size for an A2 card! The butterflies are from a newly released collection. To find out more about it, go to my site at https://nancylegate.stampinup.net/ found under Current Specials. It's an awesome collection and the stamps and dies will be in the upcoming NEW 2021-2022 Annual Catalog... COMING SOON! 

I also made a double easel card using the Stitched Rectangles #151820 from our current 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. Which do you like best?

Here's another fun fold card I made during a zoom. Do you like to zoom?

Another fun example... LOVE the intricate cutting of these butterflies!

Another fun zoom card!

Yet another card I made using the butterfly suite and the die cut background from Potted Succulents Dies in the 2021 Occasions Mini. Are you ready to check this awesome suite out?

FUN, GIGGLES, and STAMPING! in PJ's!

Are you wanting to have FUN, GIGGLES and STAMPING... in you pajamas!?!?! Come join me on Wednesday mornings! Zooming is so much FUN! Don't know how to Zoom? No problem. Contact me for more information and I will get you ready to go on your device such as computer, laptop, or tablet... in about an hour or so!  (Note: Click on any image to enlarge.)

Here's what we did today for our 45th Mystery Card. I email you Clue #1 of a list of supplies needed and come Wednesday mornings, I will give out the remaining clues and we will do a complete card using YOUR supplies of any kind/brand in YOUR own home. We don't even care if you wear your pajamas! Today we did a Pocket Greeting Card, which can easily be made into a gift card/cash holder as well.

Here's another sample that I made. So quick and easy and uses a 4 x 12" piece of your favorite designer series paper... just think, you can get 3 cards out of a 12 x 12 DSP sheet! Hooty-Hoo!!!

Clue #1  -  Gather your supplies:

Vertical/Portrait Card – All measurements in inches

Colored Card Stock:

-     4-1/4 X 5-1/2  

-     3-1/2 X 5

-     punched/die cut for sentiment label layer

Designer Series Paper:

-     4 X 12, cut off 1-1/2 x 4 and save this piece      

-     With the longer piece score at  1-1/4 + 5-1/4 (across 10-1/2)

White / Vanilla CS

-     (2) 3-1/4 x 4-3/4

-     punched/die cut for sentiment

ALSO NEED:  Ribbon, stamps, punches, dies and embellishments.

DIRECTIONS:

-   Use 1/8” tear tape along sides to fold up DSP on both sides of the dsp, between the 2 score lines. You can also use 1/4", but you need to only 1/2 of the width on DSP, then fold over the other half of you tear tape to keep a thin line of tape. If you use glue, make sure to use a very fine line along the very edge of the DSP.

-   Fold up together your DSP.

-   I put a white/vanilla 3-1/4 x 4-3/4 on each side of your 3-1/2 x 5 colored CS for plenty of stamping or writing.

-   You can also use the 1-1/2 x 4 DSP that you cut off to decorate your card OR layer with inside edge open for a gift card/cash holder for the recipient.

-   To make sure the recipient knows to "pull" the inside out, it is best to attach a ribbon and/or a tag. Just sayin'. lol!

-   Decorate as desired!

I SHARE MY PASSION FOR STAMPS, INK & PAPER WITH A SPECIAL FLOCK OF LADIES CALLED THE "STAMPIN' STRAY DUCKLINGS". WHENEVER WE'RE TOGETHER, FEATHERS FLY BECAUSE OF ALL THE FUN WE HAVE!!

Welcome to our Stampin' Stray Ducklings monthly Blog Waddle! This month we are featuring FUN FOLDS. If you need a catalog, make sure to let me know... OR... check it out ONLINE HERE!!! For a complete list of our ducklings waddling, see below. If you are following the waddle, you came from Sheryl's blog... next is Sue's blog. (NOTE: as always, CLICK any image to enlarge.)

Here is an easy and fun fold to do in a short time. Thanks to stampingmom.com for the inspiration! We made this together during one of our recent FUN Zooms! If you have not joined one of my zooms, you need to GET ONBOARD :) 

For this card you will need the following - all measurements in inches.

Coordinating card stock:  5-1/2 x 8-1/2

DSP:  1 sheet 6 x 6 with a design in it… busy or simple. Cut off 3/4 at top or bottom… SAVE this strip. You now have two pieces at 6 x 5-1/4  and  6 x 3/4

Coordinating DSP:  2-3/4 x 5-1/4  … can have design or not

White / Vanilla:  1-3/4 x 5-1/4

Scrap White / Vanilla  for sentiment + Coordinating CS for layer

Die cut or punched item approx. 1-3/4 x 2-1/4

SCORER/CUTTER, embellishments, stamps, ink, etc.

Starting from the RIGHT SIDE of your card base, here's how to cut and layout your 6 x 5-1/4 DSP. When adhering, the far left side of your DSP, close your card, put adhesive ONLY on the folded back flap, fold card and align up right side of DSP over the white/vanilla piece.

(Click on any image to enlarge.)

Above is how you make your pop-up center box. Start with a piece of your leftover DSP cut at a smidgeon under 2-1/2 x 1/2. Score at every 1/2. Fold in like a box. Apply to inside center fold. Attach your image.

Below are some other samples that I have made. Enjoy!
