Beautiful Embossed card swaps with foil accents

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.

Save

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:

Save

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.

  Here's one more card featuring the upcoming Welcoming Woods stamp set from the Holiday Catalog. 

  I went for a colorful background here with Highland Heather, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight.

  I kept this at an extremely simple layout.  Sometimes I just look in my scrap basket of colors I want to use and figure out a layout with them.  These cards frequently turn out to be my favorites!

  Measurements:

  • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White main image 3" X 4 1/4"
  • Black 3 3/4" X 2 1/4"
  • Calypso Coral 1 5/8" X 4 1/4" 
  • Daffodil Delight strip 1/2" X 4" 

  I hope the cards I've shared using this Welcoming Woods stamp set have inspired you to add it to your list!  We can order from the Holiday catalog starting Tuesday, August 3rd!

• Welcoming Woods Holiday Catalog Sneak Peak

  July 28, 2021

  ---

  With each new catalog I join a bunch of online swaps so I can get lots of samples to share with my customers.  Both the Holiday catalog and a 2nd Sale-a-Bration catalog start on August 3rd!  I know my customers started to receive theirs last week. 

  I loved the Welcoming Woods stamp set immediately.  Nature, trees, 'scene building' sets are some of my favorites.  

  I went for a soft look of winter trees on my card. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I stamped the trees in Crumb Cake ink onto the White CS.  Then I added snowflakes in Balmy Blue ink and sponged a light 'mist' of Balmy Blue on the sky.  Of course I added a few rhinestones for sparkle!

  That beautiful Designer Paper is called Harvest Meadow.

  The tags for the greeting is from the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here. 

  Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • White 3" X 4"
  • Balmy Blue 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"
  • Harvest Meadow DSP 2" X 4 1/4"

  July 27, 2021

  Today I'm sharing two swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  I love seeing their style & creativity!

  Karen made this fun fold card using the Bunches of Fun stamp set seen here.

  Her colors are Black, White & Crushed Curry.  She also used a fun technique called Paper Piecing.  She stamped the gal onto Pattern Party DSP and fussy cut the dress out.  Love this!!

  See that texture on the large Crushed Curry layer?  That's a sneak peak from the upcoming Holiday catalog.  It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder.

  Measurements:

  • Black – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2", 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • Crushed Curry 4" X 5 1/4", 2 3/4" X 4"
  • White 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"

  Next is another Sneak Peak card made by Lori.  She used the new Penguin Place bundle in the Holiday catalog.  It includes a cute Penguin punch!

  She added a layer of White to her Balmy Blue card base and torn the upper edge. She added a bit of Wink of Stella to the torn area for snow.  A super fun winter birthday card!
