Gears & Textures bundle; another wow with Candace’s fun fold card

January 28, 2026

Today I’m sharing a neat card made by Candace; my talented team member. She used the Gears & Textures bundle to make this:

You can see the Gears & Textures bundle here. It’s so special & unique and perfect for masculine cards. But as you can see in Candace’s card it’s great for gals too!

She made her own paper with the stamps in the set. She used Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy & Flirty Flamingo inks. She added die-cut gears from the Metallic Textured Specialty papers seen here.

If you want to make a card like this start out with a 4 1/4″ X 11″ piece of card stock scored at 5 1/2″. Trim off a 1 1/2″ piece from one end. Then trim off another 2 1/2″ piece which is the vertical center piece. The stamped paper layers are 1 1/4″ X 4″ on the top & bottom and the center is 2 1/4″ X 4″.

Thanks for the amazing fun fold card Candace!

January Hearts for You alternative card idea

January 31, 2025

Today I'm sharing an alternative project I made with the January Hearts for You Paper Pumpkin kit.

Save

Everything you see here is in the kit. The only thing I added was a Real Red Blends marker that I used to change the color of the champagne foil heart to Red. It's fun to experiment a bit!

Save

Below you'll see the 9 projects recommended in the kit. They're gorgeous as is but I like to show alternative ideas just in case you want to get creative with the products. It is really fun to change things up at times.

Save

Once you're a Paper Pumpkin customer you can choose to get any of the extra refills or add on items. The refills do not include the stamps or ink spot but everything else! And they're usually only $12. Wow! See this one here

A unique fun fold card swap with Hugs for Love with Bloom Impressions

January 30, 2025

Tracey made this stunning card for our January Team card swap. I love her colors and layout so much!

Save

Her card layout was inspired by Rachel Tessman and chose to use a Petunia Pop with Blackberry Bliss color combination.

She featured the Hugs for Love bundle and the Bloom Impressions designer series paper (free during Sale-a-Bration with a qualifying purchase from Stampin' Up! See this gorgeous paper here.

It's hard to tell in the photo above that it's a fancy fold card isn't it?

Save

The right flap tucks under the diagonal Designer Paper and To the Point greeting punches.

The measurements for the card base is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 1 1/4" (fold back) and 5 1/2". Both front flaps are textured.

Below is the Hugs for Love bundle that includes the To the Point punch. I love, love this punch so much! *heads up; this punch is now in low inventory; grab it while you can!

Save

There's another stamp set that coordinates with this fabulous punch too. It's called Bright Borders.
