• How to use leftover pieces to create projects

  December 18, 2023

  ---

  I'm sure you have a few piles of extra die-cuts, greetings or stamped images leftover from other projects right?  I seem to have lots! I give bunches of these to my friend Joanne in AZ as she loves to use them to remake cards to benefit the needy. 

  I had a few extra Santa hat die-cuts left from this project. 

  Save

  It's made with the Sending Cheer bundle. I shared this diamond flap card on a video here.  Unfortunately the dies are sold out but the stamp set is hugely discounted right now; see it here. It was $24 and is now $14.40. 

  I had enough die-cuts and other elements left to create a few more cards; here's one:

  Save

  The layout is quite similar but it's not a fun fold card. Simple but cute! I used Poppy Parade for this card base. The colorful designer paper is the Merry, Bold & Bright but it's also sold out now.  Our Last Chance sale from the Holiday catalog is really reducing our options!  

  Here's a different card layout using similar pieces: 

  Save

  I had a leftover textured layer that was perfect for the Santa element. It's the Christmas Tidings embossing folder – discounted on the Last Chance sale and seen here. 

  Save

  
  

  Easy-peasy and two more Christmas cards made.

• Fragrant Forest & Countryside Corners in a fun fold layout with video

  December 15, 2023

  ---

  I've been sharing my Fragrant Forest projects from last week's Live; this is the third one. I have a video below to watch plus free project sheets for each card too.  See this stamp set here.

  Save

  I chose a simple color combo of White & Pretty Peacock. The designer paper on the upper flap is the Hello, Irresistible from our Online Exclusives line. 

  The die-cuts are the Countryside Corners from the Annual catalog; seen here. Can you see the raised lines on the inside white? I used my Simply Scored 1/4" from each edge. 

  Here's the free project sheet with measurements, photo and more: Download Fragrant Forest Funfold card

  I couldn't decide if I like the clean look of the card on the lower right or the added forest on the lower left card. Which do you prefer? 

  Save

  Here's the inside view of the upper left card.  I used the Lasting Joy stamp set for my greeting and sentiments. I find I'm reaching for this one often. See it here. 

  Save

  You might wonder just how I achieved inking only the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the left card above. Watch the video here. 

  I cut my stamp apart! 

  Save

  Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile!  And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp.  Try it!

• Free Shipping Thursday!! And a quick & pretty card with Fragrant Forest

  December 13, 2023

  ---

  Stampin' Up! announced that Thursday, December 14th is a day of FREE shipping! 

  All orders over $75 will have no added cost of shipping. 

  Save

  Start making your list!

  On last week's Live video I featured the Fragrant Forest stamp set. Trees are one of my 'go to' choices for card making; I like most botanical images though. I find them comforting and versatile and this large background stamp is truly beautiful. 

  Save

  I kept my colors to White & Pretty Peacock. If you ever struggle with color combos try just one with White or Vanilla; they're usually quite beautiful. 

  Dies used here include the Countryside Corner dies (2023-24 annual catalog) & Forever Forest dies (2023 Holiday catalog) for the die-cut mountains on the bottom of the card . The greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies; a definite must have! See the Fragrant Forest stamp set here. 

  Here's the inside view:
