New! Delicate Framing Easel card with free project sheet


I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. I also have a free project sheet for you as well.

It features one of our new online products called Delicate Framing; a beautiful greeting set.

My colors include Lost Lagoon, White & Gold foil. The other products include Creative Haven dies (new), Everyday Arches dies, Gold & Black twine & the Textured Notes stamp set (leaves).
Here are the Creative Haven dies:

I focused on these two new products in my projects – the Creative Haven dies seen above for the leaves and the Delicate Framing stamp set for it’s greetings. Both are new this month.

Aren’t the greetings wonderful? See the Delicate Framing set here.
As you can see, it’s an easel card which is quite simple to make. Add a second score line in the middle of your card base front and add something to the inside to hold it up.

You can print or download the free project sheet here. *I recommend saving them to a file for easy access.

Below is the video tutorial for this pretty card and one more featuring these products.

The kits below will ship out this week so you have plenty of time to finish them by December. And they’re quick & easy too!

The Christmas Tags & More cards are easy because there isn’t any stamping. The greetings are from the gold foil ephemera pack included in the kit.

This kit to go includes a share of the festive designer paper, the ribbon, the peppermint gems, the ephemera greetings, the PDF tutorial and video too. Plus the pre-cut 10 cards that are all fun folds. All for $30 plus shipping. It’s a fabulous deal!

Don’t wait long; I have just a few left. Go here to get yours. *You will need to cut your new designer paper for the cards but my directions make that simple.

The other kit I created this month is also easy but does require stamped greetings. But there is very little prep & just a little trimming of the card bases to create these beautiful wintery cards:

These cards could be winter or holiday; it’s your choice when you stamp the greetings.

This kit originated from a former Paper Pumpkin kit but I jazzed up the cards and added more to create 12 gorgeous cards. This kit includes 12 envelopes and a share of Peppermint gems plus the PDF tutorial.
I have a few left so grab yours soon. This kit is $29 and you can see it here.

**Remember to check out all of my kits to go and tutorials here at my shop; choosing more than one will save on shipping.

  • 2 card ideas with Cradled in Love – a sweet set that’s free during Sale-a-Bration


    One of the free stamp set choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Cradled in Love set.  A sweet group of stamps perfect for baby cards.  See this stamp set here. 

    Here's a quick card I created for my Open House boards: 

    My colors include Flirty Flamingo, White & Smoky Slate.  That large die-cut is from our new Perennial Postage dies seen here. 


    I paired it with the new Most Adored specialty designer paper – another free option during Sale-a-Bration this year. I added a 2" wide strip under the main element diagonally. 

    Both the stamp set and paper are available through February or while supplies last.  See this pretty paper here.  It's filled with gold foil designs on one side and Flirty Flamingo & Real Red on the other. 

    This photo does not show it well at all.  The colors are rich and gorgeous!

    Below is a super cute swap card I received from my friend Amy Storrie.  

    She used the Lighter Than Air designer paper, Highland Heather, Lemon Lolly, Gray and White. That adorable scalloped border from the Basic Borders dies adds so much!  I just love it!

  • Softly Sophisticated fun-fold card with free project sheet to save & download


    Here's the other fun fold card I shared on last week's Live video.  See the other one here. 

    I chose to feature the new Softly Sophisticated bundle from our 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

    See this pretty bundle here. Both the stamp set & embossing folder are free with any $100 purchase through February. 

    It might not look like a fun fold card, but the front main layers open instead of the entire card like this: 

    The colors include Bubble Bath, White and Lost Lagoon.  During my video I shared another one with Boho Blue instead.  It all depends on which sheet of the beautiful Flight & Airy designer paper you choose!  

    Did you wonder which dies I used on the designer paper and the greeting label?  They're the Thoughtful Expressions dies – one of my new favorites.  See them here. 

    See this pretty Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's free with any $50 purchase through February; while supplies last.  Don't delay if you want it! I suspect this will be one of the firsts to sell out…. 

    I love Sale-a-Bration where you can earn free products!  See it all here. 

    Below is the video you can watch to see this card and another special fun fold card.  Don't forget to follow me on YouTube!

  • A unique fun-fold card with Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder tips with video & free project sheet


    For last week's video I highlighted the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder.  Once I used it I was hooked!  It's fast & easy!  I hope you watch the video here or below; you'll be amazed! 

    The cards today are both unique fun folds that can easily include a gift card option.  

    This card features Misty Moonlight, White & Fresh Freesia. The pretty paper is the Flight & Airy designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with a $50 order.  See it here. 

    Here's how the card opens. See the gift card inserted into the left side pocket?  It's so easy to make – a simple cut on the front layer up to the score line. Then adhere the outer and lower sides to form a pocket.  

    I cased this card from my friend Susie Wood; she is a master designer of fun fold cards.  See here blog here; she usually posts measurements and great directions. 

    Here's her original card she sent me: 

    I lover her style so much! She used the Poetic Expressions designer paper and the gorgeous Thoughtful Expressions bundle; both from the 2024 Spring catalog. 

    Notice I changed the side I cut the gift card on; see the difference in the two cards below?  I wanted to see how it worked and it is just fine either way. 

    I used the new brayer to add ink to the folder, added the large die, then white card stock before I ran it through my Cut & Emboss machine. I got a nice handful of inked and embossed greetings! It's so very cool; I hope you watch the video!! 

    This Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder comes with a set of dies too.  See it here.

    I made the pretty card below during the video. 

    My colors include Pebbled Path, White & Petal Pink.  The pretty papers are from the Softly Stippled designer paper seen here, also in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with any $50 purchase from Stampin' Up! through  February; or while supplies last.  

    The floral paper I used is originally white with Pebbled Path; I added Petal Pink ink to the flowers with a sponge dauber. 

    Note the layered scalloped labels under the double-layered greeting.  These are from the Thoughtful Expressions dies seen here.  They're a gorgeous set of dies you will want to consider. Originally I did not get the coordinating stamp set, but I did order it now because I've seen so many beautiful samples using it.  We're all enablers! 

    Below is a sample of the many ways you can ink the greetings.  I cannot say how much I love this folder & dies bundle!

    Details on these die-cuts seen above:

    • The top two in bold Pebbled Path were embossed and cut from White paper. After I cut and embossed them I rolled the inked brayer over them very, very lightly. *see video!
    • Celebrate & Thank you with a thin inking were done by inking the folder with the brayer, adding the die and White card stock, then running it through the Cut & Emboss machine. *it cuts and inks at the same time; with one pass! 
    • The Love You was done with both of the above techniques. Pebbled Path inside the folder and afterwards I brayered Petal Pink over the raised area.  

    Below is the video you can watch to see these techniques using this amazing Hybrid embossing folder in action.  Don't forget to follow me on YouTube!
