Beautifully Celebrated Easel Card

I was in the mood for something different and this is what I turned to--an Easel Fold.  (Also, people are always asking for sympathy/get well cards). The card folds easily into an envelope, but can be made to stand up on the table when displayed.  Just use a piece of card stock, cut 4-1/4" x 11"; score on the long side at 1-1/4" on one end, then at 6-1/2" in the middle of the card base.  Score diagonally from the top right corner to the 6-1/2" score and you get a diagonal line.  Be sure to use your bone folder on all score lines to get a crisp fold.

Cut both DSP and White card stock to 4x4" for the front and inside of the card.  A leaf is propped up with dimensional to hold the easel in place.  Be sure to only add adhesive to the bottom right triangle of DSP (I forget the first time I did it).  The Beautifully Celebrated dies are nesting dies, so you have lots of sizes to use!

Cutest Crew--Coming Soon!!

 Good Morning---I enjoy creating anything that uses dog (and cat) stamps.  Cutest Crew Bundle (an Online Exclusive release in available 3/3/2026), is an adorable bundle that uses dogs, cats, and birds in a cute, whimsical way.  The card below also was stamped using the NEW Stamp Positioner--you can get for FREE when you join Stampin' Up! (through 3/2/26).  It's an easy way to get each stamped row placed perfectly straight and separated about an inch apart.  Questions about joining and/or the stamp positioner?  Contact me!

Shop at inkyfingers.stampinup.net
Don't forget to add the Product of the Month for $5
And you will also earn Stampin' Rewards!!

I find that I keep coming back to the Lovely Blossoms Suite Collection.  Not sure if it's the stamps/dies, the Designer Series Paper, or both, but I love using these products.  Notice the bottom of the embossed card from has some Secret Sea in added using a blending brush.  Adds a nice effect to the card.  Flowers were embossed on vellum with white embossing powder, then die cut;  since it's vellum, glue was added only to the back where the middle of the flower is; leaves were stamped in Mossy Meadow onto Old Olive card stock.  This is a card that can be used for any occasion.

Sunshine & Tulips

Happy Friday (and it's a Holiday Weekend, too)---I'm ready for flowers and trees to start blooming!  While tulips tend not to grow here in the desert, I still enjoy seeing them.  This Sunshine & Tulips card was inspired by Terri Gaines.  It's a pretty easy card to make.  All the tulips are die cut one time and you end up with the base for the card.  This bundle has lots of possibilities.  After I die cut the tulips frame and stamped the leaves, I embossed it with my new favorite embossing folder--Beautiful Pattern.  It just gives it a nice texture.  Oh, and this bundle is in the 2026 Jan-Apr Mini.
