Beautiful Autumn themed card swaps by my Team.

Today I’m sharing two card swaps by my talented team members. Our theme was Autumn or Halloween.

First is a stunning card made by Tracey. She used the new Stampin’ Hot Foil system here:

I was absolutely blown away by this card! She used the Lustrous Leaves hot foil dies seen here. It includes a set of masks that allow you to add gorgeous colors using Blending Brushes.

Here’s a photo of the bundle:

Her colors include Lost Lagoon with Crisp Cantaloupe. The silver hot foil details really makes the leaves stand out!

The greeting is stamped on a Spotlight on Nature die-cut. See those here.

Next is a sweet fall card made by Candy.

She used the Simple Leaves bundle seen here.

Her colors include Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Berry Burst and Old Olive. The neat embossing folder is called Textured Tree Ring and can be found here. It’s on the Last Chance list and available while supplies last. It’s reduced in price too!

I’ll share another Team swap card tomorrow; stay tuned!

• January Hearts for You alternative card idea

  January 31, 2025

  ---

  Today I'm sharing an alternative project I made with the January Hearts for You Paper Pumpkin kit. 

  

  Everything you see here is in the kit. The only thing I added was a Real Red Blends marker that I used to change the color of the champagne foil heart to Red.  It's fun to experiment a bit!

  

  Below you'll see the 9 projects recommended in the kit.  They're gorgeous as is but I like to show alternative ideas just in case you want to get creative with the products.  It is really fun to change things up at times. 

  

  Once you're a Paper Pumpkin customer you can choose to get any of the extra refills or add on items. The refills do not include the stamps or ink spot but everything else!  And they're usually only $12. Wow!  See this one here

• A unique fun fold card swap with Hugs for Love with Bloom Impressions

  January 30, 2025

  ---

  Tracey made this stunning card for our January Team card swap.  I love her colors and layout so much! 

  

  Her card layout was inspired by Rachel Tessman and chose to use a Petunia Pop with Blackberry Bliss color combination. 

  She featured the Hugs for Love bundle and the Bloom Impressions designer series paper (free during Sale-a-Bration with a qualifying purchase from Stampin' Up!  See this gorgeous paper here. 

  It's hard to tell in the photo above that it's a fancy fold card isn't it?  

  

  The right flap tucks under the diagonal Designer Paper and To the Point greeting punches.  

  The measurements for the card base is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 1 1/4" (fold back) and 5 1/2".  Both front flaps are textured.  

  Below is the Hugs for Love bundle that includes the To the Point punch.  I love, love this punch so much!  *heads up; this punch is now in low inventory; grab it while you can! 

  

  There's another stamp set that coordinates with this fabulous punch too.  It's called Bright Borders.

• Make the most of your card stock & DSP with this Timeless Plaid fun fold card

  January 29, 2025

  ---

  Today I'm sharing one more easy fun fold card featuring the Timeless Plaid 6" Designer Series Paper.  

  

  I love this card layout because it makes great use of both your card stock and designer paper.  My colors include Basic Beige with Pretty Peacock.  The greeting and stitched edge die-cut are from the Mixed Labels bundle seen here. 

  

  The card base is 11" X 4 1/4"; scored at 5 1/2". Trim off one end at 3 1/4" and cut it into a square.  Next add a 3" square of DSP to that. You'll add that as the layer over the left side of the card (after adding a 2" X 4" piece of DSP).  So simple! 

  I shared 3 fun fold cards on last week's video.  If you like fun fold cards I hope you'll access the free project sheets for them all here.
