Beautiful Autumn themed card swaps by my Team.

November 4, 2026

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!

Let’s Chat is cute & nostalgic! See the video & free project sheet

April 22, 2024

Today I'm sharing one of the Club cards we made during my April Card Clubs. I chose the 'Let's Chat' stamp set seen here.

I love this set! Between the fun old-fashioned telephone, the greetings and the curvy 'cord' images it's a blast to create with.

I chose to use the retiring Hot Air Balloon designer paper seen here for my color palette of Fresh Freesia & Balmy Blue. We did fussy cut the head set to add at the top with Stampin' Dimensionals.

For the inside of the card I used the Happy Little Things stamp set seen here. I really like the many greeting combinations you can make. t's one of our online exclusives.

Have you seen the clever Happy Houseplants kit?!

April 19, 2024

One of our most unique kits lately is the Happy Houseplant kit. It includes 4 frames with everything you need to create adorable home decor!

It's in our Kit Collection seen here and is all inclusive. That means it includes everything you need to create the 4 pieces of framed art all for just $25. They're 7" square when finished.

I think they're perfect to place in a hall, bathroom or a guest room. Maybe near a real plant as a coordinating accent.

A few tips on putting these together. The clear acrylic cover sheet has adhesive on both sides for protection. Remove them before assembling.

See how 3D they are? I used a bone folder to curl the plants a bit. The kit comes with Dimensionals for adding an elevated look.

Because the pre-cut plant layers are meant to be popped up for a 3D look I added foam adhesive strips seen here to the edges of my frame after I added the clear acrylic sheet. *don't look too close; I added the adhesive strips to the frame edges before I added the clear sheet and had to remove them!

I love the plants & pots this kit creates. What a beautiful set of home decor art!

This kit would make a fabulous gift for someone who has a new home and needs art, someone who likes to craft but not collect, or someone who is redecorating.

While you're shopping be sure to check out the rest of the kits in our Kit Collection here.
