This neat fun fold card features the Lily Pond Lane designer series paper and the Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here. 

The stamp set is available in a bundle with either a punch or a set of dies.  Love that they have these options to please us all.

My colors include Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Pretty Peacock which I got from the Lily Pond Lane DSP seen here.  I still have a few card kits to go with this adorable designer paper. See them here; while supplies last.

The card layout includes a quarter sheet on the base and a scored/folded 11" X 4 1/4" piece over it.  A few White & DSP layers and that's it!  It's quite simple.  I did fussy cut the butterflies I added to the right panel.

• Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

  October 26, 2021

  ---

  I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs.  It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. 

  Save

  The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?'  It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'. 

  Details:

  • The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
  • The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers. 
  • That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration. 
  • The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut 

  Save

  
  

  Measurements:

  • Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
    • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
    • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
    • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

  And here's the video!

  October 25, 2021

  ---

  We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  It's at 7:30 pm CT here.  

  Save

  It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured. 

  For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog. 

  Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday. 

  Save

  Details:

  • Ink – Mossy Meadow & Blackberry Bliss
  • Card stock – Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss, Very Vanilla, Cork & In Good Taste DSP
  • Stamps – Christmas Season, Heartfelt Wishes – both from the 2021 Holiday Catalog
  • Other – Gold 3/8" Fine Art ribbon, Banners Pick a Punch, Mini glue dots

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end on the long side
  • DSP 3 1/4" X 5 1/4"

• There’s so much you can do with the Merriest Moments bundle!

  October 22, 2021

  ---

  On this week's FB Live I featured the Merriest Moments bundle seen here – a beautiful bundle that includes a Hybrid embossing folder. This type of folder enables you to die-cut AND emboss at the same time!  

  Save

  However it's important to only use the large outline die inside your Hybrid folder.  Do not use the detailed die.  You can use that after or before you emboss. 

  Look at these gorgeous cards in Evening Evergreen, White, Red & Just Jade. 

  Save

  This next card really shows off the stunning die-cut & texture as well as the pretty holiday greeting.  That cute baby poinsettia is made from our Red velvet paper and the dies in this bundle.  The colors are Evening Evergreen, White and Red. 

  Save

  The set of cards below have a window die-cut in the Thick White card base after texturing.  I did run the front back through the Hybrid embossing folder again after I cut the window because it flattened a bit when die-cut.  *This is shown in the video below or click here. 

  I added just a few die-cuts and the greeting to finish them.  Simple yet beautiful! 

  Save

  Next is a gorgeous card we made at my October Card Clubs.  The pretty die-cut has been sponged with ink before or after it's embossed with the Hybrid embossing folder.  Either way works fine. 

  Save

  I chose an unlikely combo of Old Olive & Just Jade.  Who knew they'd be so beautiful together?! 

  See this amazing bundle here in my store.   

  Save

  Below is the video where I show how to make most of these cards.  I hope you watch it and get inspired to create yourself!
