A Pretty Nests of Winter Diagonal fold card from the upcoming Holiday catalog

Release of Close to My Heart products today! 

If you didn't realize it, Stampin' Up! purchased product from Close to My Heart Earlier this year and have taken on any CTMH Makers that wanted to continue promoting stamping & scrapbooking products.  In the future we will be offering a larger line of Scrapbooking products!  This is great news for scrappers! Super Exciting!! 

Before we get to today's project, I wanted you to be aware of some new products in the Online Store today. These items includes former Close to My Heart products that have only been available to CTMH customers until today. Know that these items will likely sell out fast as there isn't a large quantity of products.  

See it all here. 

And now for some stamping projects – I love everything about this card!  

Winterly diagonal Save

It features a brand new suite called Nests of Winter which is seen in the upcoming 2024 Holiday catalog. We made it at a team meeting a few months ago and I shared it and two other cards on last week's Live video. 

The birds & branch are from the Nests of Winter designer paper, as well as the birch paper too.  So pretty!  My large circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies which are currently unavailable (for the umpteenth time!).

It's almost a fun fold;  it's basically a standard Pool Party card that has the front panel cut off on the diagonal.  The designer paper starts out at 4" X 5 1/4" and is cut on the diagonal for 2 cards. Tip – make sure you cut it at the right angle – from bottom right to upper left.  (I did it wrong and wasted a piece) 

Here's the inside view:

This die-cut circle is from the Deckled Circle dies seen here. They're available only in the Online store right now. 

Below is the video for other projects in this suite as well as sneak peaks of all of the upcoming 2024 Holiday Catalog designer papers!

  • A fun way to add color to the Happy Place stamp with video tutorial

    I shared how to add color to the large ‘Happy’ from the Happy Place stamp set on last week’s Live video. What do you think?

    Save

    We made this cute card at my September card clubs. The colors include Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral & White. You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned inking on the Happy image. I used inks – Lost Lagoon for the water and Calypso Coral for the sky. For this sample I used large ink pads. But for my Clubs we used smaller ink spots. It was a lot easier this way!

    Save

    You might also wonder where I got the rectangle Perennial Postage die shape. I had to die-cut a larger rectangle twice to get this size. It was pretty easy and I share how in the video below.

    Save

    We textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Wave 3D embossing folder and the curvy leaf dies are from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I love them! The inside greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.

    Save

    It’s an easy fold that shows off the inside of the card and the designer paper we added. This DSP is the Subtles 6″ designer paper which has some great patterns.

    Save

    I really enjoyed playing with this fun stamp set. I’ll share another project from the video tomorrow. See the Happy Place set here.

    I created a free project sheet for you with measurements, photos, directions and a supply list with links. Click on this link to print or download it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you’re there!

    Isn’t it stunning?! Tracey loves to create her own background with stamps. It looks like printed paper! She says she stamped the flowers & leaves in 12 different ink colors!! Wow!

    She used the following stamps: Encircled with Love, Blooming Phrases, Impressions Abloom, With You in Mind & You are Remarkable.

    The leaves are from the Thankful Garden dies; the embossing folder is Exposed Brick. What a fabulous card!

    Lastly today is a fun Halloween card made by Barb:

    Save

    She used the Spooky Halloween bundle & Halloween designer paper. See this suite here.
