What's New at SU!..April Blog Hop
April 15, 2020
Welcome to the What's New at SU! Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrator from around the world who are hoppin’ to share some fun and exciting ideas. Today we will featuring products from the 2020 January-June Mini Catalog.
One of my first purchases from the 2020 Jan-June Mini Catalog was the products from the Clubhouse suite. This suite is just perfect for my family. Most of the men in our family golf or at least try to. I am sad to say that I haven't played with this set very much so it was my first choice for today's blog hop project.
It was so much fun creating this bridge card ( I think that is the right name for this fold) using the Clubhouse bundle and the Country Club DSP. This is a pretty simple fun fold which allows you more time to play around with how to decorate it.
- Night of Navy CS (card base) 4-1/4" x 8" scored at 1-1/4", 2-1/2", 5-1/2", 6-3/4"
- Night of Navy CS (bridge) 1-1/4" x 5-1/2"
- DSP pattern #1 cut 2 @ 1-1/8" x 4-1/8" (front 2 panels)
- DSP pattern #2 cut 2 @ 1-1/8" x 4-1/8" and 1-1/8" x 5-3/8" (inside panels and bridge)
- DSP pattern #3 cut 1 @ 2-3/4" x 3-3/8" (center design)
- Whisper White CS cut 1 2-3/4" x 4" (back of card to write a note)
Here's a birdseye view of the fold. The center DSP panel was colored using Mint Macaron Combo, Crumb Cake Light, Balmy Blue Light and So Saffron Light Stampin' Blends. In retrospect I think this was supposed to be a water hazard. I saw it as a sandtrap, a might big sandtrap!
What is really nice about this card style is that it folds up nicely to mail.
It fits nicely in a Stampin' Up! medium envelope (A-2). I love that it sits up nice to be displayed and is also easily mailed.
Hope you can use this idea! Now it is time for you to see what the talented Jackie Lawless has created for you!

I keep seeing these types of cards but haven't made one yet...but my Dad is an AVID golfer and I think I need to make one for Father's Day now! Thanks for sharing the measurements to make my life easier!
