Aren’t they pretty? I love this pretty designer series paper and enjoyed creating these cards. Each is a unique layout and three of the 5 layouts are fun folds.
*You’ll need adhesives, greeting images, ink and a paper trimmer to cut your new DSP.

You can choose the PDF tutorial here for $16 or get the pre-cut card kit for $31 here. The PDF tutorial is sent to your email immediately. It includes a private video link for you too!

The pre-cut kit includes 1/2 pkg of the Brushed with Beauty DSP, a share of Pearls of Beauty and Vanilla Baker’s Twine. Reserve yours now; I have a limited supply. And I’m ahead of the game and this month’s card kits should be ready to go by next week.

I will share the 2nd kit to go this month tomorrow. But you can see all of my available kits here. Grab more than one to save on shipping costs.

• Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

  October 26, 2021

  ---

  I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs.  It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.

  The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?'  It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'. 

  Details:

  • The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
  • The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers. 
  • That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration. 
  • The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut

  Measurements:

  • Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
    • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
    • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
    • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

• Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!

  October 25, 2021

  ---

  We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  It's at 7:30 pm CT here.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured. 

  For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog. 

  Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.

  • Stamps – Christmas Season, Heartfelt Wishes – both from the 2021 Holiday Catalog
  • Other – Gold 3/8" Fine Art ribbon, Banners Pick a Punch, Mini glue dots

• There’s so much you can do with the Merriest Moments bundle!

  October 22, 2021

  ---

  On this week's FB Live I featured the Merriest Moments bundle seen here – a beautiful bundle that includes a Hybrid embossing folder. This type of folder enables you to die-cut AND emboss at the same time!  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  However it's important to only use the large outline die inside your Hybrid folder.  Do not use the detailed die.  You can use that after or before you emboss. 

  Look at these gorgeous cards in Evening Evergreen, White, Red & Just Jade.

  This next card really shows off the stunning die-cut & texture as well as the pretty holiday greeting.  That cute baby poinsettia is made from our Red velvet paper and the dies in this bundle.  The colors are Evening Evergreen, White and Red. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  The set of cards below have a window die-cut in the Thick White card base after texturing.  I did run the front back through the Hybrid embossing folder again after I cut the window because it flattened a bit when die-cut.  *This is shown in the video below or click here. 

  I added just a few die-cuts and the greeting to finish them.  Simple yet beautiful! 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  Next is a gorgeous card we made at my October Card Clubs.  The pretty die-cut has been sponged with ink before or after it's embossed with the Hybrid embossing folder.  Either way works fine.

  I chose an unlikely combo of Old Olive & Just Jade.  Who knew they'd be so beautiful together?! 

  See this amazing bundle here in my store.

  Below is the video where I show how to make most of these cards.  I hope you watch it and get inspired to create yourself!
