2 more Season of Elegance & Peaceful Season cards with free project sheets & video

Yesterday I shared a gorgeous fancy fold card and today I have two more pretty cards as well.  They all feature the Season of Elegance suite. 

I'll start with this one which has Basic Beige, Pretty Peacock and Gold:

I love so many things about this card – the pretty dies and that fabulous Painted Trees 3D embossing folder too.  I adhered the Season of Elegance DSP (seen here) to the Beige layer before I textured it.  A neat trick to showcase them both.  

Notice the 'Merry' die-cut layers. There isn't a coordinating larger die-cut for this so I cut this in half horizontally to add a nice gold layer above and below. *watch the video here or below to see how I did it.

Here's a view of this gorgeous designer paper:

Next is a pretty card featuring the Cherry Cobbler and Gold DSP in this pack.  

It also shows off the pretty die-cuts once again.  I really like the ribbon slots in three of the dies in the set. Here I used the gorgeous Cherry Cobbler/Gold satin ribbon seen here.  

This Peaceful Season bundle is a big hit with many of my customers.  It has beautiful die-cuts and the greetings are wonderful as well. 

I'm sure the embossing folder caught your eye as well.  It's the Forever Plaid 3D folder.  It's one of our large folders so I could place the Beige CS on an angle.

I especially like this layout as it truly does not matter what size your DSP layers are. Simple offset them from each other to form an interesting mix.

• Quick Notecard idea with the Banner Sayings bundle

  January 20, 2026

  ---

  I needed to send a few special cards to my Team members this weekend and so I created these cute notecards:

  

  The large piece of designer paper is 4″ X 3″ and the bottom strip is 4″ X 1″. I added a 1/4″ strip of textured Coastal Cabana between them (I found it in my scraps).

  I chose to make notecards because the package I was sending their prizes in was narrow and these fit perfectly.
  Did you know we carry pre-scored notecards with envelopes? The package includes 20 cards and 20 envelopes for just $10. You can see them here.

  I chose the Hobby Haven designer paper because of it’s colors and ‘hobby’ themed prints. See it here. It’s part of our Online product selection.

  I decided to feature the Banner Sayings bundle for a few reasons. It’s quick with the coordinating punch and the greeting I chose fit my needs perfectly. Click here to see it. The new Triple Banner punch was out of stock for weeks! But now it’s back.

• A neat Diamond Pop-up Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet

  January 19, 2026

  ---

  I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week’s Live video. If you missed it you can watch it here on YouTube or here on Facebook.

  

  Isn’t it a neat card fold? And it’s super easy to make. I also love that it shows off our coordinating designer series paper so well. Here I used the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty DSP seen here. It’s gorgeous prints include gold foil accents.

  

  I made two different versions because I needed multiples of them for our January Team swap with my Flowerbug’s.

  The center greeting layer is added with two folded strips of paper positioned next to the center score line. This allows the greeting to pivot and pop-up when you flex the card. These are about 1 1/2″ X 1/2″ and I simply fold them in half and placed with the score lines next to each other.

  

  You can see how the center panel ‘pops’ up when it’s opened. I really love this fold!

  

  I used the Greenery Lane bundle for the greeting and the White leaf die-cut. You can see this bundle here.

  

  
  The other two dies are from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

  

  I created a free project sheet for this fun fold card. Click here to download or print it.

  Below is the video tutorial for this card.

• Cute as a Bug fun fold kit to go or PDF tutorial

  January 16, 2026

  ---

  Here’s the second kit to go I’m offering in January; the Cute as a Bug fun fold card kit:

  

  Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park with this CUTE designer series paper! *see it online here It’s unique color combinations and whimsical critters make creating with it so enjoyable.

  I created 5 different fun fold layouts and doubled them for a total of 10 unique cards.

  The PDF tutorial includes step by step directions, photos, measurements and a supplies list. I also recorded a video tutorial exclusively to those who purchase it or the kit to go. This tutorial is just $16 and can be seen here.

  The pre-cut kit to go can be seen here. Reserve it now and it will be mailed out later this month (likely around the 22nd of January).

  The kit includes the following: 1/2 pkg of the Cute as a Bug DSP, a share of the Ladybug Garden epoxy gems, the Old Olive rick-rack ribbon and exclusive video link. It also includes 10 pre-cut cards! Everything is cut for you except your new designer paper. You’ll use the measurements in the PDF tutorial to do that; it’s easy! Then just assemble and add your stamped images to the greeting pieces provided. (Any greetings will work; feel free to use what you have).

  My kits are super easy to complete. I get tons of compliments and repeat customers each month.
