Christmas Card Class – Attend class or get the pre-cut kit & tutorial!


Each year I offer my local gals at least 3 Christmas card classes so they can create beautiful cards to send to their family & friends. I also offer my long distance customers a chance to get these same cards in a pre-cut kit & tutorial as well.  

Here are the beautiful cards for October's class:  

I love the variety – from cute to beautiful; they satisfy all of your holiday card needs.  

For these cards I used the Christmas Season (2022 Annual Catalog), the Christmas Scottie, Sweet Candy Canes and Peace to You stamp sets from the 2022 Holiday catalog.  You can substitute other sets for these if you'd like to.  

The local class is on Saturday, October 29th at 10 am.  Cost is $25 and you'll make 3 of each card with stamped, coordinating envelopes too.  RSVP to attend  by Thursday, October 20th please.  

The pre-cut kit to go includes 12 cards, all cut, die-cut & punched pieces.  It includes ribbons but not gems, texturing or stamped images. The cost is $25 plus shipping. 

Go here to get the kit to go; while supplies last.  

You can combine kits and save on shipping.  You can see them all here.  

I am not offering the PDF tutorial separately at this time. 

I just love these cards!!

  • Last set of ‘Create your own Background’ swap cards


    Today I'm sharing the last three cards in our July Team card swaps.  I shared the others in this post and this one.  Our theme was to create our own backgrounds; not using designer paper.  They were quite creative!  

    First up today is a cute card made by Candace.  She chose the Little Monkey bundle.  

    Can you tell what her background die-cut is?  She used the Aspen Tree dies for her Crumb Cake layer. But underneath that is a shaving cream technique!  It's fun to make and different every time. 

    Tip: to make a shaving cream background, spray the cream on a plate or container and spread it out.  Drop a few drops of ink refill onto the cream. Swirl it in with a knife or utensil.  Press your paper onto the cream.  Remove and wipe off the excess cream.  Let dry.

    You can usually get a few pieces done in the same batch of colored cream. The first few will be darker and the last will get lighter in hue.  It's really fun.  

    Next is a CUTE card made by Marla featuring the Supremely Awesome stamp set. She stamped the background and colored the images in with Blends markers. 

    Her colors include Real Red, Pebbled Path and Daffodil Delight.  The pizza slices look quite real!

    Next is a pretty card made by Rita. She used the Cheerful Daisies bundle. 

    It's in Berry Burst, Old Olive and White. She stamped her background using the open daisy image; tone on tone. Then added a large daisy die-cut (sponged) and some leaves from the Bough punch. 

    It's a gatefold card. She scored it 2 3/4" from each long end. *card base is 11" X 4 1/4"

    Here are all of the fabulous 'create your own background' swaps from our July swap.

  • 4-Card Wonder – free PDF tutorial, template, measurements & video!


    Before we get to the projects today I want to share the sale Stampin' Up! just announced:


    Check over your wish list and see how many stamp sets are on it.  Might be a good time to place an order. With the Bonus Days happening you can double dip!

    Plus the Trucking Along bundle is back in stock!  See it here; get it while you can.  

    I'm extremely excited & proud to share this project with you.  If you know me well, you know I love to create one sheet wonders. I've made quite a few over the last 10 years or so.  I'm so lucky that my husband is willing to create the templates for me; I'm not sure I'd love them as much without his help!  

    I'm calling this project a 4-Card Wonder because it creates 4 cards.  I originally made this for a Team meeting project. I wanted it to be quick, create multiple cards and of course be easy and cute!  

    I shared this project & template on my weekly Live video but did record it and it's now on my YouTube channel as well. Scroll down to see the video.  

    Here's the template – it's meant for a 1/2 sheet of card stock – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2".  

    Grab your favorite colors of ink and stamp your own background.  Then cut it up using the measurements above!  It's so fun to create your own stamped paper. It's a bit addictive!  

    *Tip – choose stamps that include large & small images. When stamping your paper start with the largest stamps first and finish with the smallest; filling in any empty areas. 

    I chose the Beautiful Balloons bundle.  My colors include Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, Pool Party & Parakeet Party. 


    I kept the cards quite simple but you could sure jazz them up a bit more.  Make the cards like mine or this can be a starting point for your creative process.  

    You can watch the video on this project here.  It's the first project. Or click on the photo down below to watch it below.  *Remember to follow me on either my FB page here (Tuesday Live videos) or my YouTube channel here. 

    Here's the full PDF tutorial for you.  Download it here.
