New Online exclusive sneak peek

New Online exclusive sneak peek. So excited – Launch Day is coming soon so here’s a sneak peek. I’ve created a multi pop-up – card so say “hello” to the Fabulous Celebratory Sips Suite Collection from the soon to be released Online Exclusives range on May 6th, 2025.

We all love a celebratory tipple or two. This suite allows you to create festive cocktails, dirty sodas wherever your imagination takes you!

This fun multi pop-up card is deceptively easy to do. It does require a lot of pieces but the finished product is SO cool! I suggest you create a template with retired Sale-a-bration paper and different coloured pieces of card stock for the various layers so it’s easier to visualize, but first, feast your eyes on the finished card!

Please note that for the best results, ensure your card lies flat while you adhere the various pieces during the whole process for accuracy.

Cloud Cover, Base template and card extensions

I got to play with one of the new In Colours called Cloud Cover – there was an issue with the Ink changing colour so Stampin’ Up! has withdrawn it for the time being. Consequently you won’t be able to purchase the money saving bundle for all 5 new In Colours, there are only 4 available for purchasing individually. The Stampin’ Write markers have Cloud Cover as part of an In-Colour set but not the classic stampin’ pads. However there’s no reason why you can’t use the card stock which I’ve done here. I used the marker pen to ink up the sentiment.

  • The base is cut at 10″ x 5 ¾” (26 cm x 14.5 cm).
  • On the long side score at 2 ½”, 5″ and 7 ½” (6.5 cm, 13 cm and 19.5 cm)

  • DSP – Cut 2 pieces 4 ¾” x 5 ½” (12.5 cm x 14 cm) adhere to Cloud Cover extension pieces.

Adhere Card Extensions and Panel A

  • Apply adhesive to end panels on the right side of card base.
  • Place the extension 5″ x 5 ¾” (13 cm x 14.5 cm) piece DSP side face down as pictured – remove backing tape and close the section on the right of card base on top of card extension to adhere it.
  • Open the extension so the you can repeat process with remaining card extension on the other side mirroring the process.

Cutting Panel A, DSP and adhering to Panel A and card base

  • Cut 2 pieces Cloud Cover measuring 4″ x 6″ (10 cm x 16 cm).
  • On the long side score each piece at 1 ½”, 3″ and 4 ½” (4 cm, 8 cm and 12 cm). Burnish score lines well.
  • Mountain fold on all score lines and fold into a Gate-fold. Apply adhesive as shown in picture above. Remove backing tape, flip it over so that where the gate fold meets is aligned with score line on the card base before adhering it.
  • Repeat for remaining piece. The picture on the right above shows what it should look like once adhered.

Preparing Panel B, adhering to Panel A

  • Cut 2 pieces Cloud Cover for Panel B measuring 3″ x 4 ⅝” (7.6 cm x 11.7 cm). This one’s a direct conversion.

  • Remove backing tape from ½” tab, tuck under and adhere to card base extension piece on the right.
