Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial

I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

Changing Leaves 1 Save

It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

CHANGING LEAVES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

Changing Leaves diagonal. Save

My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

Changing Leaves both Save

For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!

  • Easy stack & cut layout with Regal Winter with free project sheet & video

    This is one of the cards I shared on last week's Live video.  I chose to feature the beautiful Regal Winter suite seen here. It's new from our 2024 Holiday catalog by Stampin' Up! 

    Regal Winter complimentary color Save

    Isn't the color combination pretty?  It's Blueberry Bushel with Wild Wheat & White.  It's interesting that I chose the color combo from the pretty Regal Winter designer series paper but afterwards I realized they are complimentary colors.  Check out pages 132-133 in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog. Blues & purple are complimentary colors with yellow hues. I explain how to do this this in my video seen here. 

    If you have trouble combining colors together start with two main colors.  Using our designer papers as a starting point can make it quite easy. I tend to grab the card stock and hold them next to each other.  I can usually tell if they work well.  But if you can't try using our color wheel information on the pages above.  

    Regal Flora 3 piece Save

    Isn't that double die-cut pretty?  It comes as one die but cuts the main and the outer frame all at once. Click here to see the Regal Flora bundle and here for the Regal Winter designer paper. 

    REGAL FLORA BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I stamped the leaf image in Wild Wheat and the blue flower is stamped & die-cut. Next I colored the white areas with a Wild Wheat Blends marker.  Love the golden highlights!

    How did I cut the three pieces of designer paper for this card? I explain in the video below and in the tutorial above.  But basically you stack 3 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut into 3 pieces. It's incredibly gorgeous designer paper! 

    REGAL WINTER 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    As long as you cut them all together it does not matter where your cuts are. You'll get 3 card fronts from the pieces you'll get.  These are layered onto another 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock. 

    Below is the video tutorial for this and one other card. I hope you watch it AND follow me on my YouTube channel too!

  • Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays

    My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending.  I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food.  Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays. 

    First is the Splendid Autumn display:

    I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left. 

    I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.
