More Christmas card ideas from the Holiday Catalog by my Team

October 25, 2024

This is the third batch of Christmas card swaps I've shared – all made by my talented Flowerug's Team.

First up today is an adorable card made by Candy. She used the Snowy Wonder bundle seen here in the Holiday catalog.

Save

I adore her color combination of Pool Party with Real Red & White. It's one of my favorites for the holidays. She stamped her snowflake background. The snow globe is stamped with the Falling Snow background stamp.

She added tons of layers and textures here! From the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder to her die-cuts, greetings and snowflake embellishments. So much detail!!

Here's the inside view. This greeting is from the Peaceful Season stamp set.

Next is a sweet & simple card made by Karen.

Her greeting is from the Peaceful Season bundle. She chose to feature the nostalgic Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper.

SENTIMENTAL CHRISTMAS 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER

Save

This pretty paper is one of the frequent 'give back's' that Stampin' Up! does each year. They are donating $3 to children's literacy programs around the world for each pack they sell.

Mary also chose to use this same DSP on her card. Another simple but neat way to make your designer paper the star of the card. Her colors are Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler & Vanilla.

There are still more swaps left to share; stay tuned!

Sentimental Park with Country Gingham DSP card swap

January 9, 2023
I always join a bunch of online swaps with each new catalog. It's so much easier to make a bunch of one card than it is to make one of several different cards for my display boards.

Here's one I made with the Sentimental Park bundle seen here.

Save

I chose to use the Country Gingham 6 X 6" designer paper pack; it has multiple gingham patterns in just a few colors. I added White & Blushing Bride to it.

Notice that pretty white die-cut for the greeting; it has attached floral design on opposing corners for some pretty detail. There are two sizes of this type of die in this bundle and one without the side details. This one fits inside the largest one; the floral detail has slits on the inside to allow the smooth die-cut to fit right in!

Save

The Blushing Bride oval is from the Framed Florets dies. The pretty texture on the White banner is done with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here; also new in the Spring catalog.

Save

My measurements are simple:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- DSP 2" X 4"
- White banner strip 1 1/4" X 5"
Notice the alternate print I used on some of the swaps below; I love having a few choices in similar patterns.

I'll share some photos of my new catalog party from Saturday later this week. Stop back in!

Dainty Flowers cards with time saving tips!

January 6, 2023

I made this pretty card in just a few minutes with 1/8 of a 12 X 12" piece of the Dainty Flowers designer paper. That means you can get 8 cards from each sheet!

Save

I made the first cut across at 5 1/2". Then cut each piece at 3" wide. This gorgeous print is just one of many in this pack. It's free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from January 5th – February 28th. See it here.

If you don't have the ribbon color you want, color it with a Blends marker. Our Blends markers come in a 2-pack of light and dark; try both to see which one fits your needs. And did you know that if you go over it more than once you can get a darker shade? This works on both paper AND ribbon!

Save

If you're making multiples of the same card AND heat embossing why not stamp & heat emboss multiples at the same time?

Save

I inked the greetings (from Dainty Delight) in Versamark ink and stamped on the Old Olive CS. Then covered in White embossing powder before heat embossing with the Heat Tool. Now I could trim them into strips for my cards.

Tip; you cannot do an entire page at once or the ink dries before you can get powder on it. I did 4-5 at a time and it works fine. It all depends on how fast you can cover it with powder.

**Before stamping I swiped my card stock with the embossing buddy. This is an anti-static bag that prevents excess powder from sticking where you don't want it. The embossing buddy is included in our Embossing Additions Tool Kit seen here.

You can see more cards in this video I shared on Tuesday. Click here or on the photo below:
