Get multiple cards from one sheet of Designer Paper! Video & free project sheet too.

August 24, 2026

I shared these beautiful cards on a Live video a few weeks ago. I wanted to make the most of one of my favorite sheets of the Valley in Bloom designer series paper. It’s discounted through August!

You can get more cards than I show above but I mistakenly cut in the wrong place and missed out on more. This pack of Valley in Bloom DSP has many beautiful sheets in it. Get some while it’s on sale.

I recommend cutting the 12 X 12″ sheet into 6 pieces at 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″. The two center pieces won’t have as much greenery on them but you could change the layout up a bit to reflect that.

My colors include Pretty Peacock with Old Olive & White. I used a variety of punches for my greetings; mostly from my stash of White elements.

The card bases are 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″. I made sure the Olive layer was small enough that the White inside piece shows as an inside layer. You can see the free project sheet with measurements, photos and supplies when you click here.

I stamped the inside of the cards with the Lily of the Valley stamp set and colored the flowers in with a Blender pen. I love this bundle so much. You can see it here.

You can see the video for this card and one more below. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

Gorgeous Notes of Nature card with free project sheet & video tutorial

January 29, 2024
I had no idea I would enjoy creating with the Nature's Sweetness suite as much as I did. It's not my usual style but I'm in love with it all!

Here's one of the cards I shared on last week's video:

Save

I used the Notes of Nature bundle and Old Olive, Black and gold accents on this card. The large white layer is made by stamping a few of the background stamps in Black ink. I added two sets of leaves – one in green and 2 the other in the Gold designer paper.

I want to mention what I think puts this card over the top. Of course the gold additions attract your eye but I think repeating colors a few times helps a lot. Notice how the black is repeated, the Olive is and so is the Gold. If you have trouble with color combinations, try adding one color with a neutral or two. Such as Black & White with any color.

Save

More Details:
- I textured the Olive layer with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and used a Blending Brush to add Old Olive ink to it. This really highlights the texture!
- Also notice the small strip of Gold designer paper on the top and bottom of the stamped white layer. This is the Nature's Sweetness specialty paper.
- I added gold sequins and gold Elegant trim near the greeting.

Spring Catalog display boards

January 26, 2024

I thought I'd share some of my display boards featuring Spring Catalog products. I've heard back that you enjoy these so here you go…..

First up is the Hot Air Balloon and Bee My Valentine projects:

Remember that many of these are swaps and are not made by me. I like to group cards together that use the same stamp set or designer paper.

Here is the Hot Air Balloon dies display. See the Hot Air Balloon bundle here.

Save

Next is the Perennial Lavender suite plus the Hills of Tuscany stamp set on the lower left.

Save

Here's a close-up of the Perennial Postage dies I put together. These are fabulous! See them online here.

Next is the Nature's Sweetness suite that features two bundles!

Save

Below is the die display I created that is part of the Notes of Nature bundle seen here.

Save

Below is the Lovely & Sweet dies display; see that bundle here.

The Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit is stunning! *get a pre-paid subscription & earn free SAB choices!

January 25, 2024
I received my January Paper Pumpkin kit yesterday and for the first time ever, I sat down and finished the entire kit! Here are my cards.

Save

The original kit makes 8 cards and 4 tags. I added 4 card bases and a few extra coordinating cardstock strips and ended up with 12 cards! They released the add on kit for the Lovely Lavender card kit today; it's just $11.50 and you can see it here. It comes with everything but the stamp set & ink spot!

*I love these cards so much I'm featuring the add-on kit in a card kit to go in February!

Here's another alternative idea I made with the kit:

Save

I used our Deckled Circle dies and the new Love of Spring 'add-on' dies for Paper Pumpkin subscribers. The 'love' and the label die-cut are from these dies! These dies can be seen here and are just $12.

I textured the white circle with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and added a 3/4" Garden Green strip to the Highland Heather card base. The twine is from the kit and the gems are our new Fine Shimmer Purple gems.

Save

If you aren't a Paper Pumpkin subscriber I want to consider it. The kits are worlds better than they were in the past. I love receiving one every month and having easy creative projects I can do when I have free time. No planning or prep; just creative fun!

Save

Here are your choices when subscribing to Paper Pumpkin:
1. Purchase a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month subscription here. *get free Sale-a-Bration choices through February!!
2. Subscribe to receive a kit each month here.
I highly recommend getting the 12 month pre-paid choice. When you do, if you add just $57 more to the 12-month subscription, you'll get 2 more for a total of 6 ($50) SAB choices + $36 hostess rewards + extra $30 hostess rewards! It's a pretty good deal!

Save

Did you know that you are in charge of which kits you receive? Once you purchase a pre-paid subscription or subscribe you can opt out of any kit you do not want. Stampin' Up! shares what's coming up each month so you can decide if you want it or not. You have complete control!

*Plus when you subscribe with me, LeeAnn Greff, you'll qualify for a FREE tutorial each month.
- This tutorial PDF is filled with 10 or more alternate ideas for additional projects you can make with each month's kit (includes photos & instructions) – making your kit go a lot further! *see example photo below
