More than Autumn Team swaps for Fall

September 17, 2025

Starting tomorrow there’s a 24 hour stamp & stamp tools sale – 15% off a whole bunch of products!

I’ll post a link to the sale tomorrow. But for now start making your list of stamps you want!

~~~

Today I’m sharing some of my Team swap cards from our September swap.

First is a cute card made by Joan:

She used the More Than Autumn bundle seen here.

Look at her amazing coloring on the cups! And it’s a fun fold with a gift card option too!

Her colors include Timid tiger, Vanilla with Daffodil Delight. She colored everything with Blends markers. The center panel is the Beautiful Bokeh DSP.

Measurements:
– card base 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″
– Daffodil textured layer 4″ X 5 1/4″
-Timid Tiger accordion fold 9 3/4″ X 4 1/4″ scored at 3 1/4″ & 6 1/2″
– Vanilla & DSP layers 3″ X 4″

Next is a sweet card made by Candy who also used this bundle:

Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon & Pumpkin Pie.

She textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Plaid 3D embossing folder. The circle is about 2 1/2″ around and is a Stylish Shapes die-cut as well as the greeting die-cut.

~~~

And lastly today is a perfectly Autumn card made by Gwen. It’s her first time swapping! She did a wonderful job!

Each of these cards features the More Than Autumn bundle and they’re all so unique. It’s a pretty big bundle with a wide variety of images and dies. She used the new Gathering Together specialty paper seen here. She added a center strip under her images that’s 1 3/4″ wide. Cajun Craze with Very Vanilla are her card stock colors. The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies.

Thanks for stopping in; I hope you enjoyed the card swaps today. I’ll share more soon!

Star & Snowflake Ornaments; so pretty!

December 16, 2021
I had to give these gorgeous star projects a try! Sara from Stampin' Up! made them for a tree topper but they were one sided. I decided to turn her idea into ornaments by making them 2-sided.

Save

They're made with our Stitched Stars dies seen here. I used the largest and third smallest to make these. I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP but unfortunately it was on the retired list and is sold out now.

You probably wonder where the snowflakes come from. They are called 'Wonderful Snowflakes' and they also just sold out! The retiring list can be so hard; items you want can be gone in an instant!

Save

You need a good stack of Dimensionals between each layer like this:

Save

You can see why you need a smaller star inside; to support the stacks of Dimensionals. *There's a second stack under that smaller star. You'll add a second large star on top of the dimensional stack seen above.

Tips:
- I found a stack of 4 to work best.
- I added a rolled up mini glue dot to the tip of each star point to secure them together. It's not necessary but does finish if off so they stay closed.
- Add the cord with a glue dot to one of the star points.
They were so fun to make I couldn't stop! I plan to add these to my cookie trays or to Christmas presents instead of a traditional bow.

I thought this last one would look sort of ho hum in this pattern. But once I added our Red Rhinestones to the snowflake it sure came to life!

Below is the video to see exactly how to make these pretty ornaments. They're the third project I share.

Easy Christmas Ornament card

December 14, 2021
I think this is pretty clever & unique; it's a 'faux' Christmas ornament on a card. And it's quick & easy too!

Save

It looks so real; like you could lift it off!  And you actually could if you use temporary adhesive; or add it to a pocket.

I shared this project on a FB Live last week. It's the second project I made in this video.

Products used:
- Merry Melody embossing folder on the White CS
- The ornament is made with the largest smooth circle in our Circles dies.
- The DSP is called Painted Christmas and is in low inventory right now.
- Elegant Trim for the 'hanger'.
- Brushed Metallic specialty CS for the 'hanger'.
- Heat embossing for the greeting – from the Words of Cheer stamp set.
- CS is Real Red, White & Evening Evergreen
Here's a close-up of it.

Save

I give a few hints in the video on achieving this. Basically you want to stamp your greeting first and add it to your DSP. THEN cut both pieces out at the same time with your circle die.

Below is the video for you. I share another special card project and some pretty star/snowflake ornaments as well.
