A stunning Holiday card with free project sheet & video tutorial

Here’s the other card I made on last week’s video. I loved playing with the Joyful Tidings stamp set seen here; it’s just my style!

Save

My colors include White, Basic Beige & Gold. Soft, pretty & classy.

Here are the products I used:

– Gathering Together designer series paper
– Gold Striped ribbon
– Low-profile dots (now retired)
– Gold heat embossing powder
– Creative Haven dies seen here for the leaf die-cuts

Save

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

You can also watch the video tutorial below. I shared a neat trick to place the leaf die-cuts on the greeting circle element. Press & Seal wrap saves a ton of time!

  On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

  These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

  Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!

  Here's the template for the explosion card.

  These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy!

• Mini Coffee Carriers; a special gift with treats & glue stands!

  November 20, 2020

  ---

  Have you noticed the mini coffee carriers on page 9 of the Holiday catalog? They're actually quite large and should not be called mini!  You can see the entire suite here. 

  My friend Marilyn made this one for me; casing the catalog project on page 10.  It's so cool!

  She used the Heartwarming Hugs and Wrapped in Christmas stamp set.  She wrapped her coffee cups with Real Red CS. Tip; use strong adhesive like Tear & Tape for this.

  Here's another version. I made these for my Flowerbug's Team that attended OnStage@Home a few weeks ago.  It was filled with treats, apple cider packet and a liquid glue stand that we make *see photo below

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I actually sprayed my coffee cups with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and Real Red ink refill.  

  Here are the Multipurpose Glue stands included in the gift above. We have them available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each.
