VIDEO: Floating Pop-Up Card Tutorial

Whether you are a regular visitor or just hopping by, welcome to Julie's Stamping Spot!

I'm so excited to be participating in the Top Ten International Highlights Winner’s Blog Hop April 2019 hosted by Kylie Bertucci!  First, I want to thank you for taking the time to vote for my creation in the gallery a couple of weeks ago. There were so many amazing projects and I am honored to have my card receive so many votes!

I have another fun fold card to share with you today! I was inspired by a card that I saw on Pinterest and concept just kind of stuck in my head for a couple months before I finally tried made one myself. Now I've made several versions and I just can't stop myself because they are so fun! Be sure to watch my video below to see my other samples!

The inside has four squares (1-1/4" x 1-1/4" designer paper layered on 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" Night of Navy cardstock) that are attached to a 1" x 8-1/2" strip. I like to use the same color as the card base so that the squares look like they are "floating".

How fun are all these little flowers! I love the Bitty Blooms Punch Pack from the Occasions Catalog and I am so sad that it will not carry over to the new Annual Catalog! Be sure to get it soon because it's only available while supplies last! There are three different shaped flower punches and the fourth punch includes the flower center and a leaf in one punch. I use colors that coordinated with the designer paper to make the flowers for the front and inside of my card.

Watch my video tutorial to learn how to make the Floating Pop-Up Card and see three more cards that I created with this fun fold! Leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Friendly Expression Cancer Support Card

I love the style of the Friendly Expression stamp set and I can't believe it's retiring after only one year in the catalog! Make sure to get it before it's gone -- there's only one month left! This stamp set includes five great sentiments with mixed fonts. I thought this one would be perfect to send to someone going through cancer treatment: "Life is tough, but so are you." Do you know someone who would love this card?

4 April 2019 Paper Pumpkin Sentimental Rose Alternative Projects

Do you subscribe to Paper Pumpkin? I love these monthly project kits! Paper Pumpkin kits include everything that you need -- including pre-cut project materials, stamps, ink, and adhesive -- to create professionally designed projects. You get to skip the hard part of designing and cutting and get right to the fun part -- creating! I've been getting Paper Pumpkin for 6 years and the kits just keep getting better and better! The kit for April came with a Distinktive stamp set with a gorgeous flower and leaves and a versatile set of sentiment stamps. I know I'll use them stamp set well after I finish the cards!

For my alternative projects, I mostly used the materials from the kit and also added some solid color cardstock to create regular size cards. I used So Saffron, Mint Macaron, and Calypso Coral cardstock.
