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!

  • DSP 3 3/4" square on the front; 1 1/4" X 4" on the inside right edge

  She cut the treat box dies into separate pieces (Garden Green & Vanilla) for her card front.  It also opens up to reveal a gift card holder inside. Lots of texture with the Winter Snow embossing folder too!

• Feels Like Frost Fun Fold card

  October 9, 2020

  Check out this beautiful fun fold card made by Annette for our Team swap in September!  Our theme was fun fold cards featuring products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.

  She featured the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Life is Beautiful stamp set.  This design is perfect for designer paper with a scene or large pattern.

  I like the tag with the pretty Metallic Mesh ribbon.  That ribbon is so soft and it's in 1 1/2" wide but can easily be cut in sections without fraying!

• Christmas Cards kit to go; all Fun-fold cards! Opt in by the 20th!

  October 8, 2020

  ---

  Yesterday I shared the Plaid Tidings cards kit and today I'm sharing my 2nd cards kit to go (I cannot seem to do just one; there's too many fabulous products!).

  I chose to feature the Heartwarming Hugs designer series paper seen below.  It includes a variety of tiny patterns of plaid, stripes, dots, and more in traditional Red's and Green's. I especially like the gingham and stripes.  Oh and the polka dots too!

  Look at these cards!  Each one is a unique fun-fold card which is a delight for the recipient.  They're creative & fun but not too difficult for a non-stamper to figure out either.  They include latch folds, pocket, flip, easel cards & more!

  This pre-cut kit includes $20 in current Stampin' Up! product, all for just $28! Yes; you're getting the 10 cards for just a few dollars when you add in tax & shipping. 

  In your kit to go you'll receive:

  • 1/2 package of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper (6" X 12")
  • 3/8" Red double stitched satin ribbon
  • Red Rhinestone jewels
  • the free pdf tutorial for all 10 cards (valued at $15)

  This pdf written tutorial is available separately at my Tutorial shop here.  It includes step by step directions, measurements, a supplies list and photos.  

  I used the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set on all 10 cards; it's a fabulous holiday set and coordinates with the Warm Wrap dies.
