Card using SU! fabric!!!


Starting on September 1st Stampin' Up! debuts it fabric line! These are great quality fabrics that will stand up for all your crafting needs. There are two different sets of fabric (3 designs for $9.95) Deck the Halls (Vintage) & Candy Cane Christmas (more modern)

As a demonstrator, I was lucky enough to get my hands on this fabric ahead of time. The fabric all comes in extra long fat quarters, quilters you know what I'm talking about, non-quilters basically it is a 1/4 of a yard piece just cut a bit different, well fatter.
Stampin' Up!'s fabric is longer than a normal fat quarter as you can see the striped fabric (non-SU!) for a normal fat quarter. The brown material is SU!, you can see the extra inches in length.

Check out the cute skirts that Shelli (Co-founder & CEO of SU!) and Sara (Shelli's Daughter and fellow Demonstrator) had made by a friend using all SU! products!

Here is a card that I put together the other day using some of the new Candy Cane Fabrics with the Extra Big Buttons. The flower is actually a pin attached to the card, that way the person who receives this card has something fun to wear. The flower pin was made by using the flower folds die for the Big Shot and all 3 Candy Cane fabrics. I simply cut out 4 of each flower (large, med, small) and folded each flower in half, layered, and stitched them together. Easy.
You can check out detailed instructions here. I did make mine a bit different by using one type of flower for each "flower" but you get the idea. I also used the new Candy Cane Christmas designer series paper on background of this project, love the built in red glitter! The "thinking of you" stamp is from Tiny Tiny Wishes, my go to sentiment stamp set.

  1. This is adorable! Thank you for sharing! I am one of your followers from Stampin' Connection. (I'm the one that started the Follow Me thread) I have a small favor to ask, please. I had to switch over my website (it used to be BellevueStampingClub) and lost all of my followers from SC. Would you be so kind as to go to my new site listed below and RE-follow me, please? You may have to copy and paste the link. Thanks so much! I really appreciate it!
