A gorgeous card with the Joyful Tidings set


This beautiful card has tons of Gold accents plus there are lots of neat tips you’ll appreciate. I made it during last week’s video.

It was originally created for our November Team swap. The theme was to use foil or metallic heat embossing. I did both!

Notice the background stamping on the right side; I used the Amber Autumn set with Versamark ink. The greeting is from the Ornamental Christmas set. The gold foil ‘wheat’ die-cuts are from the Amber Autumn dies
The wreath stamp set is Joyful Tidings and can be seen here. I’ve always loved wreaths and used to collect them.

Here I simply heat embossed the partial wreath in Gold embossing powder. It’s stamped on a die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies. See the pretty gold hoop? Those are available here and are applied with either mini glue dots or thin lines of Multipurpose Liquid Glue (which I did).

My colors include Basic Beige, Mossy Meadow and Gold foil. I textured the Mossy Meadow layer with the Wreath 3D embossing folder. I also used the Labeled with Love punch to achieve the ‘ticket’ shaped corners.
*look at your punches to see if you can use them in new ways!

This card is a slightly different fold because the second layer is what opens. I created a free project sheet for this card for you. Click here to download or print it.

I also have a video tutorial seen below for this beautiful card and one more beautiful card featuring the Joyful Tidings stamp set that I’ll share Wednesday.

  • Easiest Shake Card Ever; plus the quickest Christmas cards you can make!!


    Have you wanted to make a shaker card but didn't want to deal with the Foam Adhesive and window sheets?  Well I have a solution for you!  Use a clear envelope!  Yes; it works beautifully!

    I used one of the Wonder of the Season cards, cutting it down to 4" X 5 1/4" and adding another layered strip.  I then inserted it into one of our clear envelopes (seen here) and folded the excess to the back, securing it with Tear & Tape.  Then I added some Sequins for Everything and sealed it up.  It's adhered to a Real Red card base and the greeting is adhered to the front. 

    The stamps are from the Tag Buffet stamp set. 

    You can watch how I did this in the video below; it's one of the first projects. 

    In the video I also shared the Wonder of the Season Memories & More projects.  These cards are beautiful and filled with gold & red foil accents.  I love these because they are super quick & easy!  All I added were some Red rhinestones!  No stamping or extra card stock!  

    Here are a few I made:

    Remember I only used three products on these!  All you need are the cards (seen here) and the cards & envelopes (seen here) and Red Rhinestones.

    You can use the 3 X 4" cards for the pretty card bases so the foil accents show.  Or flip the front to the inside and use the larger 4" X 6" cards on the front.  This way you can still see that pretty foil on the inside! 

    Watch the video below to see these projects & more!

  • Video with Stampin’ Up! Stitched Dies for some easy WOW cards!


    Look at these fun and unique cards made with the Stitched Triangle dies!  

    Aren't they neat?  Our Stitched dies are quite versatile and can be used in a variety of ways as you can see! 

    I used the Well Said stamp set, Well Written & Stitched Triangle dies.  The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" and the Vellum ¾" X 4”

    These cards were created on last week's FB Live video.  If you're not following me yet here's the link to my FB page.  Be sure to like & follow so you catch them every week on Tuesdays at 11 am CT.  

    Check out the Stitched Rectangle cards below.  I cut all of the Playful Patterns Designer Paper layers at the same time using just 2 dies.  

    How did I do it?  Start out with a piece measuring 5 1/4" X 4" and choose the 3rd & 6th dies from the outside.  Perfect layers! 

    I then layered the Designer Paper with card stock and added a die-cut greeting from the Best Year stamp set. 

    Supplies & Measurements:

    • Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, & Calypso Coral
    • Tasteful Label dies, Detailed Bands dies, rhinestones
    • DSP – 5 ¼” X 4”, and cut with dies at 3 ¾” X 3” & 3 1/8” X 1 ¾”
