Hi Everyone. Today I am sharing a card from my Team Swap. The theme this month was Tags. I right away thought of a bookmark. I wanted to make a card that had an easily removable bookmark and still be simple to make since I needed to make several.
Well, I achieved the 'simple' with the design but then I took it a step further by Paper Piecing the image :) Paper Piecing is when you stamp an image onto multiple pieces of patterned paper and cut the pieces out. next you piece all the images back together on top of a final stamped image. Even thought I wanted simple, I couldn't help it, this set is PERFECT for paper piecing. This set is called 'In the Moment' and I have used it quite a bit. In the close up on the left you can see the Paper Piecing. That is so fun to do, as long as you don't mind cutting. I used paper from the Pattern Play designer series paper pack.
The bookmark is two layers, so that it can fit over a paper strip that will hold it in place. Here you can see how the bookmark easily slides onto paper band
I also added a sentiment behind the bookmark so that once the bookmark is removed, the card is not blank. See full how to with measurements in the video below.
Here is another card that uses the In The Moment stamp set and Paper Piecing. I made this card for a Tutorial on SplitcoastStampers. You can find the tutorial on their YouTube Channel.

Hi Everyone! I am the Guest Tutorial Writer at SplitCoastStampers today. Yay! so fun! I love that site and so whenever they ask me to do a tutorial I always say yes! If you are not familiar with the site, I recommend checking them out. They do tutorials every Wednesday, and there is a huge Gallery of projects alphabetized by the name of the Stamp Set. They have samples for every stamp set that Stampin' Up! has ever made! You can also start your own gallery for the cards you've made. Here is a link to their site. Here is a link to my Gallery too.
Here are the cards that I made to show this technique.
The first two use a new stamp set called In The Moment. This will be a fun stamp set for coloring techniques too.
Next I went with this cute Puffin from the Party Puffins stamp set. He looked like he was taking a bow so I thought he would look great on a stage.
And here is a card that I made with this technique a while back. You can see the how to video for this card here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1Fud4SsZnY&t=651s

Hi everyone! Are you a part of my Facebook Idea Sharing Group? If not you are missing out on some fun! We have various challenges throughout the month, including a 'Mystery Kit'. This month I sent out 3 different Mystery kits. Here are the finished cards. If you received one of these kits, be sure to add a photo of your finished card to the Facebook group. I can't wait to see what stamps you come up with to use with your kits.
Here is Mystery kit #1. I used the stamps Campology, Garden Birdhouses and Daffodil Dreams.
Campology and Garden Birdhouses are both from the Annual Catalog.
Daffodil Dreams is a new stamp set that will be available to customers in January in the new January to June Mini Catalog. The stamps have a fantastic die collection to go with them. I will be showing the dies and more with this set in late December.
See how to video of this kit here:
Here is Mystery Kit #2
I used Beauty of Tomorrow, from the July to December Winter Mini Catalog, Birds and Branches from the Annual Catalog, and Amazing Silhouettes from the new January to June Spring Mini Catalog. The Designer Series paper is also from the July to December Winter Mini and will soon Retire. It is called Blackberry Beauty and is so pretty! There are highlights of gold foil throughout the paper. It was honestly hard to cut it up!
Amazing Silhouettes is a very pretty stamp set with a unique look in that the image is made up in the negative space that is left uninked. The set also has a word die set that works with it. This will be out in January so be on the look out!
See how to video for these cards here:
Here is Mystery Kit 3. If you received the pieces for this kit, you may have been wondering about that extra score line on the card front. It is actually an Easel Card. Be sure to share a photo of what stamp sets you used to complete your card.
I used the stamp sets Celebrate with Flowers and In the Moment.
The In the Moment stamp set will be released in the January to June spring mini catalog.
This set will be great for coloring techniques. Here I used Stampin' Blends but I know I will use this a lot with Watercoloring techniques.
