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.

Timeless Plaid card kit for great men’s card ideas. Reserve yours now!

April 4, 2025
If you're like me you tend to make more cards for the gals than the guys. So I thought I'd focus on men's cards for one of my kits & tutorials in April. I chose to feature the Timeless Plaid designer series paper for these terrific cards.

Save

Aren't these great card ideas? Many are fancy fold cards and perfect for the men in your life. The color combinations with the plaid DSP are quite eye catching.

You have a few options here: Choose the pre-cut kit or the PDF tutorial.

This card kit includes the following items:
- the pre-cut card kit including punched and die-cut elements
- 1/2 pkg Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper (6" X 6")
- a share of the Faux Glass Dots
- a share of Linen Thread
- the PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, a supply list and step by step directions.
The PDF tutorial is $16 and can be seen here. The pre-cut kit is $31 and is seen here.

Reserve yours soon! The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit is sent out at the end of April barring inventory/supply issues.

For the kit to go you'll need greeting images (I used With You in Mind and Unbounded Love sets but any will work), adhesives, inks and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper.

I have multiple kits and tutorials available on my shop here. Check them out!

Great sketch to create fast cards with Woven Textures

April 2, 2025

On last week's video I shared two more projects made with the Textured Notes bundle which is included in the entire Botanical Textures suite seen here.

Save

This lovely card features Pecan Pie with Early Espresso. I stamped directly onto the designer paper – a soft linen sheet included in the Woven Textures DSP seen here.

Save

I die-cut the three rectangles with the new Textured Notes dies which is included in the Textured Notes bundle seen here. I cannot stop using this bundle!!

This layout was inspired by this sketch.

Save

I love using sketches for my inspiration! Think of them as a starting point. Noticed I added a greeting layer & linen thread.

Save

Did you catch the texture on the diagonal Early Espresso strip? That's the new Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here. I tell you this suite is incredible! I love every single thing in it!

Below is the inside view. Like I said yesterday these leaf stamps are wonderful to play with. Easy, beautiful cards.

Here is the free project sheet for you. Click on the following link to print or download the directions: Download Woven Textures suite card

And here is the video below; it also includes how to make the Bendy card that I shared yesterday.
