Merriest Moments & Spruced Up Christmas card ideas

This week it's all about sharing October's Team swaps with a Christmas theme.  I know you love seeing what they make as much as I do!

First is a gorgeous card made by Kim with the Merriest Moments stamp set & Merriest Frames Hybrid embossing folder.  These products were a bundle in last year's Holiday catalog, but this year they are offered separately.

She used Starry Sky and White card stock with beautiful Silver embossing on the greeting and some of our gorgeous Silver mesh ribbon under the center panel.  

Did you know you can cut and emboss card stock at the same time with our Hybrid embossing folder & dies?  See them here; it's sooo cool!

Absolutely stunning!

Next up Paula used the same dies and stamp set, plus she added the Christmas Banners bundle to it as well.  

Her colors are Real Red with Garden Green & White.

She turned it into a fun fold too but scoring the front panel one extra time at 2 1/8".  Look closely at the many die-cuts she has here! 

Next is a beautiful card made by Brenda in blues & white with lots of layers.  

Oct Brenda SprucedUp Save

She used the Spruced Up bundle seen here for the trees with lots more product as well.  

Details:

  • Twigs & Springs embossing folder for the large White layer (seen in the annual catalog here)
  • She embossed her Vellum card stock with the Wintry 3D embossing folder
  • The DSP is the Storybook Gnomes seen here
  • That iridescent Snowflake is from the Wonderful Snowflakes seen here; all cut & ready for you & a great value!

  • Balloon Festoon surprise slider card with video tutorial

    I shared this CUTE card on last week’s Live video. We made it at my May card clubs:

    Save

    It features the Balloon Festoon bundle seen here and the Beautiful Ordinary Life designer series paper. Both are in the 2026 May – August catalog by Stampin’ Up! They pair up wonderfully together!

    Save

    It might look like a simple fun fold card but look how it opens:

    Save

    The inside greeting layer slides out when you open the front of the card. It’s super easy! Watch the video below to see my tips & tricks on this card fold.

    Save

    My colors include Pool Party, Crisp Cantaloupe, White & Daffodil Delight. I used the colors in the Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP as a guide.

    Save

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here. Feel free to download it to print or save in your files for later.

    Below is the video tutorial; I hope you watch it! There’s a second card I share as well; I’ll feature that project in tomorrow’s post.

  • Cool technique for a background made with our new shimmer brushes

    Take your new Shimmer Brushes for a test drive with this darling DIY background idea. Stampin’ Up! posted this card idea; what a super neat plaid background!

    Save

    Here’s how you do it:

    Step 1: Draw diagonal lines on Basic White Cardstock using the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush. (Use the Clear Block F as a guide.) Apply light pressure to create fine lines; increase pressure for thicker lines.

    Save

     Step 2: Rotate your cardstock and (using the Clear Block F) draw additional lines to create a plaid pattern.

    Save

     Step 3: Decorate your sparkling background with images, sentiments, and embellishments, then adhere the finished piece to the card base.

    Save

    We now have 5 colors of these Shimmer Brushes in each of our new In Colors. See them all here.

    Save

    I hope this technique inspires you to try it. I think you could also do it with our Wink of Stella on any color CS.

    I have one Mystery Box left!
    Place an order over $100 to grab it before it’s gone.
    Message me before you order to be sure it’s still available.
