The pretty Summer Shadow dies unleashed my creativity!
I sure had fun playing with the Summer Shadow dies this week. I planned to make 3 cards and ended up with 6! I had to make myself stop, which rarely happens. I started out with this amazing card inspired by one made by Beth McCullough.
I die-cut a bunch of flowers & leaves from Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green Coastal Cabana and Magenta Madness and added them to Black CS that I embossed with the Hello & Thank you embossing folders. The greeting from Shaded Summer is on a die-cut from the Messages die. See the pink & black gingham ribbon? It's originally Black & White but I colored it with my Magenta blends marker.
As you can see in these eye catching cards you can do a lot with these dies!
I also made this neat card with a paper piecing technique. I inserted petals into the outline flower and secured them with tape. The black & White DSP behind the fie-cuts is from the Pattern Party DSP. It's a huge pack of 48 sheets – a hostess choice with orders over $150 seen here or on page 171 of the annual catalog.
The colors are Coastal Cabana, Magenta Madness, Black, White & Mango Melody.
The Summer Shadow dies are free during Sale-a-Bration (this promo ends Sept 30th). Now is a great time to stock up on essentials when you earn free products with your orders. Card stock, inks, In Colors, Blends markers, Designer Paper etc. Check these dies out here!

Easy 8 Card Wonder with Christmas Season
Last month my local gals made these cards at class. It's made with my Easy 8 Card Wonder template. I just love creating my own designer paper with our gorgeous colors and stamped images! It's one of my favorite things to create.
I chose to use these colors: Old Olive, Early Espresso, Rich Razzleberry, Cajun Craze & Bermuda Bay.
The stamps include Little Delights, Sparkle of the Season, Thinking, Thanks & Peace; all from the 2021 Holiday Catalog.
I stamped an entire 8 1/2" X 11" piece of White card stock using the Christmas Season stamp set. On the reverse side of this is the printed template so I know just where to cut each piece!
You can get the PDF tutorial for this one sheet wonder here on my Tutorial Shop. Once purchased you'll receive it via email. Be sure to check your spam or junk folder for it!
*Those who've purchased this tutorial from me from my Shop have been sent an updated file free of charge!
This tutorial includes 4 different sets of card ideas featuring some of my favorite stamp sets in the past year.

Sparkle of the Season cards & box; it would make a wonderful gift!
I had to get the Sparkle of the Season bundle right away. It is perfect for many, many occasions and these wreath dies were one of the options I gave Stampin' Up! for one of my Million Dollar stamp set ideas. You can see it on page 58 of the Holiday catalog; or click here to see it online.
The 4 cards & envelopes fit in the Kraft Gift Box perfectly. Details on this box below; or click here.
I used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set for a few of the greetings here. Other products used were:
- Cork & Kraft paper in the Holiday catalog
- Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, So Saffron, Soft Succulent, Vanilla & Evening Evergreen CS
- Inks – Versamark, Crumb Cake
- Metallic pearls & Artistry Sequins, Banners Pick a Punch, Vanilla envelopes, Circles Collection dies
- clear embossing powder & Heat Tool
Isn't Pool Party beautiful with Crumb Cake & Soft Suede? And our new Cork paper is amazing; thin but with beautiful texture.
Here's a picture of everything you get in the Sparkle of the Season bundle. See it here or on page 58 of the Holiday catalog.
I bet you're wondering where this card box is from. It's quite hidden in the Holiday catalog in my opinion. See it here or on page 11 or 75. There are 10 in a package and they already have adhesives on the flaps! They fit our A2 cards & envelopes perfectly! Get 10 for $10. I heat embossed leaves on it for added texture. Check out the video below for my tip on masking the window.
Here's a link to the video; it's the first project featuring the Sparkle of the Season dies. The photo shows my Halloween cards but it is the correct video!
