Beautiful Gold foil cards made with the Season of Elegance DSP


Today I’m sharing two more beautiful swap cards by my Team. Out November theme was to feature either foil designer paper or metallic heat embossing.

First up is Tracey’s stunning easel card:

She featured the ‘A Child is Born’ stamp set and heat embossed it on a Gold foil die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies. There are tons of details on her gorgeous card; I’ll highlight a few:

I think my favorite thing about her card is what she heat embossed the greeting with. Gold embossing powder wouldn’t show up very well so she mixed Copper and Black embossing powders and used that. Genius!

Measurements:
– Mossy Meadow card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″. Cut from the center score line down one side at 1″ and again at the other side at 1″. Now score that center piece at 2 1/8″
– DSP strips are 1″ X 4 1/4″
– Gold circle die-cut is approximately 3 7/8″
– inside vanilla is 3 1/4″ X 4″
– Greeting die-cuts are 2 1/2″ long X 7/8″ tall

A stunning Christmas card Tracey!

Next is a pretty card made by Lori who used a few of the same products on her card.

She added lots of texture to her card with four different embossing folders. Those include the Sunflower 3D, Birchwood, Gathering Leaves & Soft Waves folders. These are in 1 1/4″ squares.

Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Gold foil and Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the Prairie Grass stamp set.

It’s quite a striking card Lori. Thank you!

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.

  • Fun & Simple card layout for designer paper with video tutorial


    Here's one more card shared on last week's Live video.  It is a very simple layout with a bit of fun to it. 

    It's simply two layers of designer series paper with a slanted greeting across it. The slant adds a bit of playfulness to the vertical layers.  

    I used the Mixed Media Florals suite seen here.  It's in our Online Exclusives line which is available to everyone.  The Online title confuses some people but all it really means is that it's not in any published catalog and can be found in our online store.  


    I tried another version above; one with flowers and the other with a patterned design.  Which do you prefer? 

    The center panel is 2" X 5 1/2" and the outer is 2 1/2" X 5 1/2".  The Black strip across is 1" wide.  

    The main panel is actually black & white without color.  I used our Blends markers to add color to it.  I love the ability to add whatever color I want to feature.  In this case Petal Pink with pops of Lemon Lolly, Black and Old Olive. 



    Below is the video tutorial for this card and two other layouts using this pretty designer paper.

  • Make a bunch of these cards with the Mixed Media Florals suite


    I love this card layout!  You can use both sides of your DSP with this easy design.

    • Coral layer – 4 1/2" X 3 1/4"
    • DSP 3" square & 1 1/8" X 3" strip

  • Neat Z-fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    Today I'm sharing a neat Z-fold card that's a little different than usual.  I chose to feature the new Mixed Media Floral designer paper from our Online Exclusives line.  You can see it here.  

    My colors include Mossy Meadow, White & Calypso Coral. The left card above has a 4" square of DSP as the main panel. On the right card I fussy cut the flowers from the DSP and added them over a printed blue panel that resembles sky. 

    The greeting is from the SAB Heart Shaped bundle; the die-cut is from the Mixed Label dies and the Coral piece is punched using the Labeled with Love punch.

    You can see how it opens in the photo below: The card base is 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" and there's a full 11" X 4 1/4" scored layer above it.
