Beautiful Embossed card swaps with foil accents

November 19, 2025

Our Team swap theme was to use foil or heat embossing on our cards. This was a fun theme that is especially easy around the holidays.

Today I’m sharing Jonna’s stunning card in Black, Silver & White:

It’s a ‘Wow’ card for sure! She textured the Basic Gray card layer with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here first and then rubbed it with Versamark ink. Then she heat embossed it with Silver embossing powder. Just gorgeous!

Her measurements are as follows:
– Embossed layer 3 1/2″ square
– Black layer 3 3/4″ square, Black greeting layer 3 3/4″ X 1 1/4″
– White is 4″ X 5 1/4″, White greeting layer is 3 1/2″ X 1″

The greeting is from the Branching Out stamp set.

It’s a beautiful card Jonna!

The kits below will ship out this week so you have plenty of time to finish them by December. And they’re quick & easy too!

The Christmas Tags & More cards are easy because there isn’t any stamping. The greetings are from the gold foil ephemera pack included in the kit.

This kit to go includes a share of the festive designer paper, the ribbon, the peppermint gems, the ephemera greetings, the PDF tutorial and video too. Plus the pre-cut 10 cards that are all fun folds. All for $30 plus shipping. It’s a fabulous deal!

Don’t wait long; I have just a few left. Go here to get yours. *You will need to cut your new designer paper for the cards but my directions make that simple.

~~~

The other kit I created this month is also easy but does require stamped greetings. But there is very little prep & just a little trimming of the card bases to create these beautiful wintery cards:

These cards could be winter or holiday; it’s your choice when you stamp the greetings.

This kit originated from a former Paper Pumpkin kit but I jazzed up the cards and added more to create 12 gorgeous cards. This kit includes 12 envelopes and a share of Peppermint gems plus the PDF tutorial.
I have a few left so grab yours soon. This kit is $29 and you can see it here.

**Remember to check out all of my kits to go and tutorials here at my shop; choosing more than one will save on shipping.

A pretty Regal Winter Tent card with free project sheet & video tutorial. So easy!

September 10, 2024

I haven't made a tent card in a long time! It can also be called an easel card too.

Save

This card layout really shows off our pretty designer paper. And it's sooo easy too! As you can see it's basically 3 layers and an embellishment. See the Regal Winter DSP here.

Save

My colors were inspired by the pretty DSP and include Pretty Peacock, Cherry Cobbler & White. That Cherry Cobbler gold edged ribbon is new; it's fine and easy to work with.

The greeting is from the Regal Flora stamp set however the greeting is originally all in one row. I cut it in half and stamped them separately to fit on my die-cut. They're easy to reposition back together like it came.

Here's a view of the inside:

Easy stack & cut layout with Regal Winter with free project sheet & video

September 9, 2024

This is one of the cards I shared on last week's Live video. I chose to feature the beautiful Regal Winter suite seen here. It's new from our 2024 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up!

Save

Isn't the color combination pretty? It's Blueberry Bushel with Wild Wheat & White. It's interesting that I chose the color combo from the pretty Regal Winter designer series paper but afterwards I realized they are complimentary colors. Check out pages 132-133 in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog. Blues & purple are complimentary colors with yellow hues. I explain how to do this this in my video seen here.

If you have trouble combining colors together start with two main colors. Using our designer papers as a starting point can make it quite easy. I tend to grab the card stock and hold them next to each other. I can usually tell if they work well. But if you can't try using our color wheel information on the pages above.

Save

Isn't that double die-cut pretty? It comes as one die but cuts the main and the outer frame all at once. Click here to see the Regal Flora bundle and here for the Regal Winter designer paper.

Save

I stamped the leaf image in Wild Wheat and the blue flower is stamped & die-cut. Next I colored the white areas with a Wild Wheat Blends marker. Love the golden highlights!

How did I cut the three pieces of designer paper for this card? I explain in the video below and in the tutorial above. But basically you stack 3 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut into 3 pieces. It's incredibly gorgeous designer paper!

Save

As long as you cut them all together it does not matter where your cuts are. You'll get 3 card fronts from the pieces you'll get. These are layered onto another 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock.

Below is the video tutorial for this and one other card. I hope you watch it AND follow me on my YouTube channel too!

Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays

September 7, 2024

My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending. I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food. Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays.

First is the Splendid Autumn display:

Save

I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left.

I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.

Save

Next is my Regal Winter display:

Save

I shared a few of these cards on last week's Live video which you can here and another one here.

Next is the Nest of Winter suite which is filled with wood grains, birds and nature.

Save

I shared some of these cards in this video seen here.

I created a sample for the dies in this suite too. I should have colored them in but I didn't take the time.

Save

I'll share more soon!
