I received these from my Stampin' Up! upline Susi Brunk & 2nd upline Sherrie Parker last week. A cute little canvas decorated with the Brightly Gleaming Suite products and a coordinating fun fold card. I used the fun fold card as inspiration for my December 20th Make It with Mary Monday Facebook Live.
Cutting Dimensions:
Start with 4 1/4" x 11". Cut off 1 3/4" from one end. This is the extra piece that you place vertically and adhere to top flap of card.
Card base is the 4 1/4" x 9 1/4" piece you now have. Score at 1 7/8" from each end. Fold on both score lines to form top and bottom flaps for card front.
Designer Series Paper - Cut 2 pieces 1 5/8" x 4" and 1 piece of a different but coordinating DSP 1 1/2" x 4".
Whisper White for inside of card = 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".
I love the Ladybug Trinket Embellishments. They are metal and adhere easily with a Mini Glue Dot.
Here are a couple more of this same Fun Fold Card I made by mixing and matching more of the Dandy Garden DSP.
The Dragonflies Punch is such a great part of the Dandy Garden Suite. You can punch your stamped dragonflies and punch dragonflies from the colorful Dandy Garden 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper as I did for these cards. I love the extra effort Stampin' Up! puts into coordinating its many products.
Don't skip the video above if you want to learn 2 ways you can put 2 or more colors of ink on a single stamp as I did for stamping these coordinating envelopes.
I absolutely love Blackberry Bliss, and I love the brightness of the other colors against the very rich Blackberry Bliss color.
Please note that the products in the Dandy Garden Suite can be found on pages 24-27 of our new January - June 2021 Mini Catalog and will be available to order beginning January 5th.

Thanks for visiting Stampin' Peace with Mary Knabe. I hope you enjoyed today's post and are inspired to make some fun fold cards of your own. I wish you a fun-filled day!
Even if you don't like winter, snow, and snow sports, these Freezin' Friends are sure to warm your heart. These little critters are just darling and all set to have a snowy good time. The Freezin' Fun Bundle pairs nicely with the Snowflake Splendor Suite. Enjoy this video replay of a recent Facebook Live I did in my Stampin' Peace VIP Group in which I use the Freezin' Fun Bundle and Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper.
You'll also get to see the new Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine in action, and I'll share with you a few of its wonderful features. Join my Merry Stampers Team this month, add the new Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine to your Starter Kit, and pay just $99 plus tax and get free shipping on it. That's a huge savings over the retail price of $120 + shipping + tax when this machine becomes available to customers on September 1st. AND, you'll enjoy being a part of a wonderful community of demonstrators who share your interest in stamping and paper crafting.
I love everything about this card. It's festive and fun and oh, so cute with these Freezin' Friends ready to take on the snow and slopes.
The Blue Adhesive-backed Gems are a wonderful embellishment for this card adding sparkle and bling to the snowy sky.
A strip of Snowflake Designer Series paper dresses up the inside of my card.
Here's another very similar card. It's differences include the "bunny hill" instead of the steep ski slope as in the card above and Snowflake Adhesive-backed Sequins instead of the Blue Gems.

You are going to love my Tri-Fold Gift Card Holder. It's so easy to make and will leave the recipient saying, "You shouldn't have, but I'm glad you did". In my FB Live video replay below, I've used the Country Club Designer Series Paper and Clubhouse Bundle in demonstrating how to make my Tri-fold Gift Card Holder. And what perfect time for making and giving these. Dads, grads, and teachers will love them. Or use them for birthdays and congratulations or just because you want to surprise someone with something fun.
The color combination on this Tri-fold gift card holder with the argyle DSP showcased is a take on black, white, and a splash of color.
Dimensions:
Card base is 5 1/2" x 12", score at 4" from both ends, z-fold card base.
Card stock layers (3) are 5 1/4" x 3 3/4".
DSP for front is 5" x 3 1/2".
Gift card pocket is 2 1/2" x 3 1/2".
Make the focal image on front whatever size is necessary for your stamped image, etc.
The Country Club Suite isn't just for the male golfers in your life. I love the Blushing Bride card stock with the gray argyle pattern of this DSP.
This card has gone "preppy" with the argyle pattern and pink and green combo! Were you a high schooler during the preppy phase?
Please note that all products in the Country Club Suite are retiring. They are only available through June 2nd while supplies last.

Learning new techniques is always fun. Here's one I learned recently from my friend and member of my Merry Stampers Team, Rita Holmes. Rita is the Queen of stamping techniques. I'm so happy she started sharing them via her Facebook Lives. I LOVE this technique - it's fun, easy, and gives unique results every time! In the following Facebook Live video replay, I'll show you how easy it is to do this technique as well as a variety of cards I made with it. Just you wait. You are going to love this technique too!
Nothing light beautiful colors and a simple "hello friend" to spread happiness!
I added a touch of bling with Glitter Enamel Dots to the flower centers above and the card below.
From Rooted in Nature Stamp Set - Be strong. Be happy. Be you.
I just had to put this strip of color to use on a card. It was too pretty to throw away.
Same re-inker technique, different color scheme.

Yes, things are looking up! As we've all been dealing with this year's pandemic, remote learning, changes in the way we do business, I have found that in all of these challenges there have been many blessings. Families spending more quality time together, people reaching out to others when they may not have taken the time to do so before, people cooking and baking at home, neighbors helping neighbors with grocery shopping and sharing of hard to find goods, and in every situation creativity is at the heart of what we've been doing. We've found new, creative, and innovative ways to do business, to educate children and adults, to shop for what we need with less concern for material wants, to entertain and be entertained, to stay connected while keeping our distance, and to show appreciation for essential workers. Creativity at its best and all of this is cause for things "looking up". I'm not sure I want life to return to "normal" as we knew it. I like the slower pace and not running around crazy busy. I like sending more happy mail. I like taking the time to nurture me with home projects and self care. Working at home full time without going out for breaks or dinners out, means I'm truly scheduling lunch and dinner breaks for myself without feeling like I have to work straight through my day. I'm even enjoying cooking for myself a bit more. And if you know me, I really don't like to cook all that much. Now, baking, I love that...because I love sweets, of course. So yes, things are looking up. Our businesses, our economy, our schools will all rebound in time while we focus on being strong, being positive, being patient, and being creative in our everyday lives no matter how they look.
The Looking Up All Inclusive Card Kit seems to have taken on more meaning for me with all that has taken place in 2020. It's not just about cards anymore. It's about how I go about making cards, using the cards I make, and how I use them to interact and stay connected to the people I know and love and appreciate as well as those I may not know. I think it was just meant to be that this Stampin' Up! kit is staying with us another year to remind us to "keep looking up" no matter what life gives us. I'll look forward to more creating with this kit as well as the new kits we'll soon have the opportunity to create with.
Here's a look at a few alternate cards I created with a watercolor wash. I've also included a video replay of a Facebook Live I did in April showcasing Stampin' Up!'s 4 All Inclusive Card Kits at the time with helpful tips and how to's as well as several alternate projects. I think you'll enjoy watching it seeing creativity at work.
All of these beautiful cards let me close my eyes and escape to happy places. How about you?
Please take a look at the video below showing alternate projects done with other Stampin' Up! All Inclusive Card Kits including Notes of Kindness, Lots of Happy, and Three Cheers to You All Inclusive Kits also.

Thanks for visiting my Stampin' Peace blog. My wish for you today is that things truly are looking up for you, that you are finding peace in the now and hope for the future. Stay safe, stay well, stay positive, and keep being creative.
I always enjoy learning new stamping techniques. I don't know how or when I came up with this Stampin' Block Dragging Technique, but I love it and am excited to share it with you! Take a look at my video demonstration. It includes how to's, tips, and a couple of different cards using this technique.
The Colorful Seasons Stamp Set is retiring soon so if it's on your wish list get it while you still can.
Here are a couple more cards also showing the Stampin' Block Dragging Technique and Timeless Tropical Stamp Set.

Looking for a fun and inexpensive "do it yourself" gift idea? I've got one for you! Purchase some plain 4" ceramic tiles, cut some 3 3/4" squares from your favorite Designer Series Paper, and make coasters. They're quick, easy, and fun to make. The whole family can get involved. Coasters make nice decorative accents to your home and make great gifts for so many holidays & occasions - Mother's, Father's Day, Graduation, Birthdays, New Home, Teacher Appreciation, & lots more.
Watch my demonstration in my April 7th Facebook Live video replay for step-by-step directions and helpful tips for make your own tile coasters.
Petal Pink is the accent color in my living room, so Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper was an easy choice when making these coasters for my own home.

I love Make It with Mary Mondays on my Stampin' Peace VIP Facebook Group. This VIP Group is for all customers, team members, former team members, class & event attendees, and Stampin' Peace followers. So be sure to join if you aren't yet a member. I host Facebook Lives 2-3 times each week with stamping and crafting demonstrations and creative challenges.
Below is a video replay of my May 4th Make It with Mary Monday Facebook Live. Each Monday, I introduce a new card sketch and invite you to craft along with me. This week, I showcased the beautiful prints of the retiring Garden Lane Designer Series Paper. (If you love this DSP, order it before it's gone as it's only available while supplies last.)
This is the card sketch from which I drew inspiration for this week's Make It with Mary Monday Facebook Live.
The Rooted in Nature Stamp Set pairs so nicely with the botanical prints in the Garden Lane Designer Series Papers.
Embossing folders, embellishments, and ribbons are great to use in "stepping up" your hand stamped cards. Here are a few alternatives to the card sketch and cards above.
