Can you believe it’s August! I know time seems to be flying by. Even though it’s August, I’m still sharing cards from the July card class featuring the Zany Zoo Bundle. This week’s card is a Zany Zoo Birthday Card. The whimsical card is appropriate for all ages but would be especially good for those hard to create preteen/teen cards. At least, for me those are the ages that challenge me when cardmaking. As in my last post featuring the Zany Zoo Bundle, the coordinating Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper is used for the characters. And since the turtle has the microphone (singing Happy Birthday), the Merry Melody 3D embossing folder creates a perfect base for the singer and his dancers. Below you’ll find cut dimensions and a video to help you recreate this fun card.
It’s A Zany Zoo Birthday Card Cut Dimensions:
Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (score/fold at 4-1/4″ for card base)
Basic Black Cardstock: 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″ (layering panel); scrap (die cut)
Basic White Cardstock: (2) 5-1/4″ x 4″ (embossing & card interior); scrap (sentiment)
Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper: fussy cutting & die cutting

The fun characters on this card make me smile!

Today’s card has a “beachy vibe” using the Circle Sayings Bundle to create a thank you card. The card is one that was featured in last month’s class featuring the Circle Sayings Bundle. I had lots of fun creating different cards using the bundle but I think this card is one of my favorites. It’s also a great card design to use for creating multiples. Just stamp the design multiple times and color with the Stampin’ Blends. I like to stamp multiple images to have ready for coloring when watching tv or when I have a few minutes to spare. It helps avoid feeling rushed to finish a card. By having components prepped, components can be pulled together for finishing the card at a later date. Give my method a try!
Cut Dimensions:
Pebbled Path Cardstock: 5-1/2″ x 11″, score/fold at 4-1/4″ for card base

Last month the card class featured the Regency Park Product Suite. Today’s card is a framed floral card from the class. In addition to the Regency Park products, the Framed Florets Bundle created the frame around the sentiment from the bundle. Embellishing with flowers creates the card’s focal point. Both combine to create a beautiful card. The Regency Park Designer Series Paper has a beautiful array of floral papers so you can create a variety of cards using this design. Be sure to check out the assembly video for creating a Regency Park Framed Floral card.

This month’s kit-to go features the Hello Harvest Bundle and the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper from the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. One of the cards is this Hello Harvest Fun Fold card. The fun fold is the book binding fold variation has been rotated so that it opens from bottom to top. Since I choose one of the black and white designer series papers as my base layer, I decided to keep the pumpkin white and bring in additional color by coloring the floral spray for the top of the pumpkin. I think it was a great choice! What do you think?
