More Specialty Paper swaps for you.


From easy to complex I think you’ll find inspiration among these three swap card samples.

First is Candy’s card. She kept is clean and simple and made the die-cut leaf the star of her card.

She chose to use Secret Sea as her card base and Vanilla as her textured layer. That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony bundle and is cut from our Earthen Metallic specialty paper seen here.

The embossing folder is the Birch Wood 3D; the greeting is from the Perennial Postage dies.

Next is a beautiful, serene card scene made by Deloris. She did a neat framing technique!

Beautiful Gallery Suite seen here; from the Beautiful Gallery DSP to the Gallery Blooms dies to create the frame.

What she did was to use the smaller frame die-cut on the DSP scene and then flip over that frame to reveal the opposite side as a contrast to the main scene. She popped this frame up on Dimensionals too. The greeting is from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set. The leaf die-cut is also from the Gallery Blooms dies using the Earthen Metallic specialty DSP. Gorgeous and so smart!!

Lastly is a neat fun fold card made by Lori who used a brand new suite just released in our Online Exclusives.

Isn’t this fold fabulous?! She has a base layer of DSP under the scored layers. The scored layers are 1 1/2″ X 5 1/4″ tall. She scored from the top or bottom at 3/4″ from the edge up to the middle and folded it outwards. Super cool!

This pretty DSP is called Delicate Dreams and can be seen here. The pretty flower is die-cut from this pretty DSP too. The stamp & dies bundle is called Delicate Whispers and can be seen here. So beautiful!

More swaps coming soon!

  • 2 more Bee My Valentine projects with free project sheets & video


    We made these projects at a recent Stampin' Up! event called OnStage@Home. A virtual event filled with fun and demonstrations.

    This first card is bright & colorful.  Lively & fun.  

    Bee My Valentine Daffodil

    The stamp set is photopolymer so I could bend the normally straight greeting  into a curve!  The colors are Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, black and a bit of Pool Party.  I made a bunch to use as thank you cards.

    Next is another card featuring Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Black and Petal Pink. The designer paper is separated by a strip of card stock and used as the greeting layer. Neat idea!

  • Bee My Valentine sneak peak projects! With a free project sheet


    There's a new bundle coming in January with the 2024 Spring catalog!  It's called 'Bee My Valentine' and it's super fun!

    Bee Mine OnStage bees

    I LOVE the builder punch and how versatile it is.  The large heart shape is for the wings, but could be used as a heart too. The small heart works on it's own or for the antenna. The bee body could be a word bubble!

    We made this adorable card at a recent Team gathering called OnStage @ Home. 

    Bee My Valentine card

    The colors include Poppy Parade, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Black & White. The bee wings are made from our Vellum cardstock, colored with Pool Party ink by pressing the ink pad directly to the paper. I heat set the color with a heat tool before I stamped the wings in Black. Vellum does not absorb ink quickly so heat setting with a heat tool can be necessary.

    You can spy a few new products here – the Bee Mine designer paper (side strips) and the new Poppy Parade ribbon. 

    I made a bunch of them to use as thank you cards:

  • More Magical Meadow fun fold cards by Judith


    Yesterday I shared the cards Judith made as our Team Artist of the Month and today I'm sharing more. She did a wonderful job highlighting the Magical Meadow bundle and the Winter Meadow designer paper. 

    All of her cards have been fun folds; she does like to make fancy fold cards. 

    Magical Meadow gatefold

    This card features a center greeting layer that enfolds both front layers of her gatefold card.  She left it removeable so the recipient can add it or leave it off.  You can adhere it if you'd like; I usually add it to the left side.  

    The gorgeous leaves & berries image was done with markers; it coordinates with the Magical Meadow dies perfectly! She used the Deckled Circle dies seen here. 

    Below is the inside view with the center layer separate.

    Next is another fun fold card I call a double-flap card. She used the same sheet of Winter Meadow as the card above. 

    Magical Meadow 2 flap card.

    She scored the right side of her double layered circles and adhered the scored flap under the inside layers. Clever!  

    The greeting layers are from the Autumn Leaves dies and of course she used the beautiful White & Silver mesh ribbon – all from the 2023 Holiday catalog.

    Thank you for sharing these beautiful projects with us Judith!  

    Magical Meadow Judith all
