My Team held a swap featuring Designer Paper and this is the card I created for it.

I loved the 'Inked Folder' technique so much I wanted to feature it on my card.  You can see how it's done in the video here.  And more examples featuring this Pretty Flowers embossing folder here.  

This embossing folder is a free gift to anyone who places an online order over $50 in June. *See it here.

I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
6. Repeat!

  These pretty fall themed cards were made by my talented Flowerbug’s for our September Autumn themed card swap. They both feature the gorgeous Autumn Toile designer series paper from the 2025 Holiday catalog.

  This first card was made by Lori and it’s a fun fold card.

  Her colors include Pecan Pie, Early Espresso and Vanilla. The stamps are from The Right Words and More Messages sets. Gems are Streaked Dots and the metallic paper for that ‘tree’ die-cut is the Earthen Toned Metallic Paper. Can you see that pretty gold hoop around the tree? Wow!

  Here’s the inside view. The tree and deer dies are from the Autumn Trees dies.

• Another cute card with the Happy Place stamp set with free project sheet!

  September 24, 2025

  I shared one card yesterday and here’s one more. Both are fun ways to add color to this neat stamp.

  Save

  You can see this neat stamp set here. I love it and see lots of possibilities; especially for scrapbooking!

  I chose the Full of Life designer paper for my background here; adding texture with the Waves 3D embossing folder. My colors include Pool Party, Black with Peach & Melon Mambo. I colored the large image in with Watercolor Pencils which I hadn’t used for a long time!

  Save

  I decided to try a different blue for the left card above – Cloud Cover. The right is Pool Party. Which do you prefer?
  

  I have a free project sheet for you and a video tutorial as well. Click Happy Place with Full of Life DSP on this link for the project sheet you can print or download. I suggest you save these project sheets in a file on your computer for card ideas.

  The video is below: It includes more ideas for this fun stamp set too!
