5 fast Christmas cards with my 5 at a time templates!

October 29, 2026

And today I’ll share the 3rd group of ‘5 at a time’ cards from my video last week. This time I went with a Holiday theme!

My colors include Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce, Pecan Pie and Very Vanilla. The Noel Tidings stamp set seen here has everything you need to create pretty card fronts or backgrounds for your holiday cards.

There is a beautiful set of dies that coordinate with this stamp set. See the bundle here. The dies are currently out of stock; but you can add your email address to the product to be notified when it becomes available.

Below you can see how I stamped the inside layers.

Both of these templates are included in the free project sheet I created. Click here to print or download it.

I’ll be proud to send these cards to my family and friends this Christmas.

Below is the video tutorial for these cards; you can watch me stamp them and get my tips for coloring the berries with a blender pen too.

The Starter kit deal ends on Saturday! I hope you’ll consider joining my team and taking advantage of the continual discount on all future Stampin’ Up! products!

Peaceful Poppies; easy cards!

January 6, 2020

The new Peaceful Poppies designer series paper is gorgeous with bright, pretty colors and lots of poppies! There's one sheet in particular that makes it super easy to make quick, floral cards. Click here to see it in my store.

It's the sheet of paper on the far left above.

I cut the paper at 5 1/2" across and above the flowers. Then into 3" strips. Now I have 8 panels of flowers ready for cards!

I made two cards here adding a 1" X 5 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade on the left and a white punched border using the Decorative Ribbon Border punch. The cards are Old Olive cut at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"

The greetings are from the new Sale-a-Bration set 'Sending you Thoughts' on page 11 of that catalog. You can see it here. The punch they're stamped on is the Timeless Label punch seen here.

You might wonder where I found that pretty crinkled Poppy Parade ribbon. It's the new 1/4" White crinkled ribbon that I colored Poppy with my Dark Poppy Parade blends. I LOVE being able to color my ribbon the exact color I need for my projects!

Check out all of the Sale-a-Bration items here; remember you get a free choice for every $50 or $100 you spend!

Snowman Peek-a-Boo card with video

January 3, 2020

This interactive card is fun& adorable and my gals loved it at our December club events.

They were anxious that it would be difficult. There is a little trick to it but once you 'get it' you'll find it's pretty easy.

I cased this card from my very creative friend, Julie Davison. Her style is simple yet fun. Her layouts are the best!

My color scheme came from the Let it Snow specialty designer paper from the Holiday catalog. Unfortunately that paper is out of stock. It was VERY popular! It's Coastal Cabana, Real Red, White and Black.

The Snowman Season set is still available as a bundle through today; January 2nd. Get it at 10% off now. It will return this year but not as a bundle at the discount. See the stamp set here and the punch here.

Here's the corrected video; not upside down! Ha!

Measurements:
Red card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
Coastal Cabana tag 2" X 5 3/4" scored at 3 1/2" and 4", front layer is 2 3/8" X 3 1/4"
White front 2 1/8" X 3", small snowman piece is 1 1/2" X 1 3/4"; inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
Designer paper 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"

That means that for every $50 you spend you get free product. The choices are many and include a few free choices with a $100 purchase too. See the Sale-a-Bration catalog here: Download 2020 SAB catalog

Here's a pretty card I made for a recent online swap I participated in. It features the Thoughtful Blooms and Small Bloom punch on pages 12 & 13 of the Sale-a-Bration catalog. I love it when SU gives us coordinating stamps and punches!

My colors are Blushing Bride, White and Granny Apple Green. I used the new Coastal Weave embossing folder from the Mini catalog, the Stitched Nested Label dies too.

I curled the little petals up with my bone folder and added the Gingham Gala adhesive-backed sequins to the center.
