More Team card swaps

March 25, 2026

Today I’m sharing the other card swaps my Team members made featuring Online Exclusive products.

First is Karen’s card made with the Homemade Sweetness suite seen here.

It’s a book-binding fold where the left side is adhered together and just the right part opens.

Check out the embossed layers with the Ladybug Picnic embossing folder. It’s so neat! Unfortunately it’s out of stock right now; but it will be back. If you want it be sure to add your email to the product to be informed when it’s back.

Next is Candy’s card made with the Cutest Crew stamp set seen here. She wanted to use the dies but they were out of stock. They came back for two days and are now out of stock again! Popular set!

Her colors are stunning! Bubble Bath with Smoky Slate and White. She stamped the kittens on the Nested Essentials die-cut and colored them in with Smoky Slate & Bubble Bath Blends markers. The embossing folder is the Hearts of Love embossing folder.

~~~

Here’s Joan’s card featuring the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper.

She layered 3 different pieces of this foiled paper with Pretty in Pink before adding her greeting layer on top. Neat layout!

~~~

Lastly is Jess’s card featuring the Lovely Stripes embossing folder seen here.

The vertical strips of DSP are from the Made with Love. I like how she alternated the DSP strips with the card stock strips. This is the first swap she joined; she did a great job!

Her greeting is from the Cutest Crew stamp set.

That’s it for our March swaps. I hope you are inspired by their creations!

A Fun Fold card with the Changing Leaves hybrid embossing folder; video too!

July 10, 2024

Here's the last card in the group of three I shared in last week's live video. I featured the Changing Leaves bundle from the Online Extras.

Save

My colors include Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with a tiny bit of white and Pretty Peacock added. That beautiful circle die-cut is the largest in the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

The Changing Leaves bundle includes the stamp set, dies and hybrid embossing folder. You might wonder what a 'hybrid' embossing folder is? It's a folder that has a coordinating die that works 'inside' the folder. It cuts and embosses at the same time. Genius! Confused on how this works? Watch the video here to see.

Save

I cut out all three leaves from the large leaf die at once and each card featured a different leaf. I thought I was smart to design my swap cards this way and save time too.

Save

Two cards feature a diagonal design but they're all quite different. Each one includes Mossy Meadow & Basic Beige cardstock though.

Watch the video below to see how the Changing Leaves bundle with the Hybrid embossing folder works. You'll also see multiple techniques too!

Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial

July 8, 2024

I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

Save

It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here. It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well.

Save

I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf. That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves. Please watch the video here to see how it's done.

Save

My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards.

In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different. The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done.

Save

For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here.

The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too.

Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!
