Stamp 'n' Hop May: Share What You Love for Mother's Day

Hello, and welcome to this month's Stamp 'n' Hop blog hop! We are a group of demonstrators from around the world, and this month we are sharing our projects made with BRAND NEW products!!! Is anyone else excited for the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog?! I sure am! I am coming to you from Gilbert, AZ in the US, and I have a fun fancy fold card to share with you today.

One of the perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is the opportunity to order new products before customers. It is one of my favorite things about being a demonstrator, and this month, Stampin' Up! is giving customers the chance to order new products early too! The Share What You Love suite of products is just gorgeous, and the project I'm sharing with you today uses products from the largest bundle.

Here in the US, tomorrow is Mother's Day, and I created this card with the mothers and grandmothers in my life in mind. I'm sure they are going to love this card with pictures of their grandbabies inside! Take a look!

This type of card is called a Twisted Pop-Up Card. I've seen other names for it too. Whatever you call it, it's a fun "twist" on a card that still fits in a regular envelope. I followed this tutorial from The Pampered Stamper to learn how to create my card, and I'm sure if you search on YouTube you will find many other videos showing this technique. 

All of the supplies I used are listed below. I used mainly products from the Gotta Have it All Bundle that is available for purchase this month, with the exception of Whisper White and Crumb Cake cardstock, the You're Inspiring stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink, and the 2" Circle Punch.

#TGIFC158 Color Challenge

This week I am participating in the TGIF Color Challenge. I love these colors together!

For this card, I went to my shelf of retiring stamp sets and picked out one that I am going to miss, Tranquil Tulips. This is a host set, so it can only be purchased using host dollars. Host an online party with me during May, or place a $150 order yourself, and it can be yours!

I stamped off for the back layer of the tulips. The sentiment is from the stamp set You're Inspiring, which is sticking around! And that black and white paper is from the Petal Passion DSP, which I'm surprised hasn't sold out yet. It is so pretty, and there are so many different ways to add color to it! See a full list of supplies used below, and don't hesitate to buy the products that are retiring because they won't be around for much longer!

Stamps: Tranquil Tulips (host), You're Inspiring
Ink: Basic Black, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist
Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black, Berry Burst, Petal Passion DSP
Accessories & Tools: Petals & More Thinlits, Big Shot, Glitter Enamel Dots

Happy Stamping!
