Christmas Season is for Fall too! Watch the short video tutorial!

September 22, 2021

Here's one of the cards we made at my September card clubs. It features the Christmas Season bundle. But as you can see, it's not just for Christmas!

Save

I love using non-traditional colors for Fall. I used Cajun Craze, Bermuda Bay, Vanilla and Crushed Curry. We stamped the images and then added texture with the Timber or Timeworn Type 3D embossing folders.

Here's the Christmas Season bundle. Look at all you get! Remember this bundle is FREE with the purchase of the Starter kit through September, 2021. It's such a great deal; if you love Stampin' Up! products I honestly believe it's the best thing you can do for yourself.

You might notice the pretty Dazzling leaf die-cuts here. That is from the Sunflower dies and the Be Dazzling specialty paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog. Sadly it is out of stock now.

Fun Treat box made from our Acetate Card Boxes

September 21, 2021

Did you know we carry the perfect size clear box for gifting a set of A2 cards? You can see them here or on page 137 of the annual catalog. They fit about 4 cards inside depending on how many layers there are.

Save

Well Marilyn cut one box in half and created this adorable treat box for her Card Club friends!

Save

It features the Cute Halloween designer paper and Frightfully Cute stamp set.

There's a template for the card stock below. She used the Basic Border dies (seen here) to cut the bottom edge but you wouldn't have to. If you don't use the Basic Borders Dies on the edge, you could cut the 5-1/2" down to 5".

She filled it with lots of treats & embellishments. It also fits an entire full size Kit Kat bar!

Save

She uses a mini velcro dot for closure. The card stock is actually inserted inside the box and mini glue dots are used to keep it in place.

Save

And here's the template for the card stock insert.
