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.

Today I'm sharing the 2nd group of cards Candace made featuring the Gone Fishing suite. If you missed the first batch, click here to see them.

Save

She was our Artist of the Month for June and chose this special bundle; so unique and perfect for the fishermen (and fisherwomen!). See the Gone Fishing bundle here.

This first card is filled with layers and details – well all of them are really!

Save

The colors include Misty Moonlight, Petal Pink and Pebbled Path. She added Wink of Stella to the fish, and bobbin. That fish is gorgeous. I love the wavy cut DSP at the top and her sponged sky. And did you notice the rhinestone 'bubbles'?

Below is the inside of this card; she always adds details to her card inside layer.

Save

Next is a fun fold card where the center panel lifts up. It's adhered to a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" layer.

Save

Her colors include Pebbled Path and Misty Moonlight with a bit of Vanilla and Boho Blue.

The folded panel is 3" wide X 8" tall and scored at 4". The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" in the back and the front panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"

Next is a neat card featuring the Spiral Dye. She stamped it twice; once in Pool Party and once in Lost Lagoon.

Save

The Stitched die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes dies. Notice that shiny paper banner? That is the new Holographic Trio specialty paper on page 127 of the Annual Catalog.

I'll share more of her amazing projects tomorrow. Don't miss the next set!

Amazing Let’s Go Fishing projects by Candace, our Artist of the month

July 4, 2023
I hope you're enjoying the 4th of July today. We celebrated yesterday and today is a quiet day to catch up on things around the house.

I am excited to show you these projects! Candace was our Artist of the Month and chose to use the Gone Fishing bundle seen here. The dies are currently unavailable but should be back in stock any day now.

I will share her projects this week, through Friday.

Here's the first card; it's a special fun fold card with a greeting on a flap. The flap is secured under the DSP strip on the right inside of the card.

Save

I love the added fish and wavy trim she added. Her colors include Calypso Coral, Mossy Meadow and Vanilla.

Measurements:
- Mossy Meadow card base 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", strip for flap 4" X 1" scored at 1", circle is 3 1/2"
- Let's Go Fishing DSP 2 3/4" X 5" & 1 1/4" X 5 1/2" inside
- Calypso Coral 3" X 5 1/4"
- Vanilla inside 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", circle 2 1/8"
Save

This next card shows off the amazing Gone Fishing dies that are included in the bundle. Look at the many details – lures & bobbins galore all in the fabulous large frame die-cut that mimics a tackle box.

Save

The colors include Boho Blue, Smoky Slate, Misty Moonlight, Real Red, White and a bit of Calypso Coral and Lemon Lime Twist.

She even added inside stripes using designer paper and card stock, perfect for guys.

Save

You can see the Gone Fishing bundle here.

Save

Next is a fun 'inchie' style card. She cut out 12 squares of the Let's Go Fishing designer paper seen here and added them to a Misty Moonlight layer.

Save

The squares of designer paper are 1 1/4" each. The Boho Blue layer is 5 1/4" X 4". She used the Stylish Shapes dies for her greeting. Love the frayed Natural Wavy trim on the greeting.

Here's what she did with the inside.

Save

Below you can see all of her incredible projects. There's such a variety and I'll share details on each fabulous card in the next few days.

Save

I'll share more of her amazing projects Thursday. Stop back in!
