Comfort & Healing Tower Card

A friend of mine asked me if I had ever seen a Tower Card.  She included pictures of cards she created in her email and boom....off I went to my craft room.  Thank you Donna for the inspiration!

I decided to create a template which took me HOURS!  Link is provided below. There are several YouTube videos out there, just hop on over there and see for yourself. I added one important step that helped me fold the card in the correct manner. My first card wasn't folded correctly that is why I created an additional four score lines in the card base. I highly suggest you make a sample or two.

The tutorial is FREE with your $25 Stampin' Up! purchase using my Hostess Code. My tutorial is also available for $3.95.

Pop Up Flap Card Trumps a Regular Card

Hop on over to Rachel's video HERE to see how this beautiful card comes together.  Some of the card mechanism measurements below are ones that Rachel supplied. In her video she doesn't mention the 16th" measurements, I have them below. I adjusted her card layer measurements for my card, including the Whisper White mechanism. Please take the time to leave Rachel a comment, she is an outstanding person with a big heart!

I HIGHLY recommend you make a sample following Rachel's video before you use my measurements.  I'm a little very OCD and made a few minor adjustments.

 If you have a personalized stamp for the back of your cards, stamp it before attaching mechanism.

Stampin' Up! 2022 Stamp Case Insert Change

Stampin' Up! has added a nice touch to the inside of their photopolymer stamps and the stamp case insert.  This is the how the cases looked before the new insert.

Then

And NOW WOW!

I actually started to do this to all my stamp sets about two years ago. This allows me to make sure I have replaced every stamp before I close up the case.  If you have used Microsoft products, I have created a tutorial for you on how to do this. 

NOW YOU CAN DO THIS!

Download - Leave me a comment, send me an EMAIL requesting the Reverse Image SU Case Insert and the file will be emailed to you.
