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.

  • Check out this fun & unique way to use up those card stock scraps!


    Look at this gorgeous card!  It's so bright, colorful and just plain fun! I made it on this week's Live video. My theme was to feature Bermuda Bay (a favorite of mine) and some sets of retiring dies I'll miss a lot! 

    I used the 'Picture This' dies seen here for the multiple circle windows.  The White delicate leaves die-cuts are from the Splendid Stems dies; which I thought were still current!  Oops! 

    Isn't it striking?  It's almost like a rainbow effect with these bright colors.  I adhered 1/4" strips of card stock to another layer of White (under the White window die).  It's slightly smaller than the top one. Watch the video here to catch my tips on this technique

    I used Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody, Polished Pink and Berry Burst.  The only two colors that will be in the next catalog are Coastal Cabana and Berry Burst!  But I know we'll learn to love the new color line too.  It's always sad to say goodbye to some of our favorites.  

    Next I shared a fun card featuring blues/greens and the Layering Diorama dies. They're discounted to $20.30 now. 

    The other dies used are the Amazing Thanks dies seen here (these were $27 and are now just $10.80). 

    And the Brilliant Wings dies shown above which include tons of butterflies in both solid and detailed dies that layer perfectly.  They were $44 and are now just $17.60.  See them here. 

    Here's how I adhered the strips to the back of the White die-cut piece. I die-cut the Layering Diorama shape first and then added these strips on the back side. It's a super fun way to show off your die-cut shape and use up those scraps you just cannot throw out! 

    Here are both projects shown together.  I hope this inspired you to use up some of those paper scraps you're saving for 'someday'!  

    Here's the video I shared how to make the window card with the Picture This dies.  Plus two other cool projects using up card stock strips! Click on the photo below.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

  • Eden’s Garden & Forever Fern; a fun way to use the Picture This dies


    Monday evening I created projects with the Forever Fern bundle for my weekly Tuesday Facebook Live. But by the next morning the Forever Fern stamp set was sold out; gone.  So I had to switch gears a bit and decided to substitute Forever Fern with Eden's Garden. I think it turned out lovely!  

    See the Eden's Garden set here.  It was $22 and is now just $9.20, while supplies last.  

    There are dies to match called the Eden dies seen here. They were $35 and are now just $14. 

    I used all retiring inks and card stock – Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry & Pear Pizzazz.  I had to focus on my Bermuda Bay; I'll sure miss this color!  The card stock, ink and refill are already sold out.  

    I wanted to feature the Picture This dies too; I honestly love these dies and use both the full windows die-cut and the stitched label pieces left over. Each side is stitched! They're perfect for greeting labels. This 2 piece set of dies is now $27.20; it was $34.  See them here.

    Measurements:

    • Bermuda Bay card base 8 ½” X 5"
    • White die-cut piece is 3 ¾” X 5”, White stamped piece is 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
    • Rich Razzleberry 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”

    Below you can see the Forever Fern card on the left and the Eden's Garden card on the right.  

    I think the color combination is beautiful.  I'll sure miss these colors!  

    Below are the three cards I shared on the video.  I think the Forever Fern stamp set is one of the most gorgeous set of stamps Stampin' Up! has ever made. The distinktive quality of the images gives a true multi-hued effect; it's my very favorite type of stamp.  I'm sorry it retired and that it's already sold out.  You can get it in French still…..


    Things are flying off the shelves on the retiring Last Chance Sale.  Thank you to all who have placed orders with me this week!  I sure appreciate it!!!

    Here's the video I shared how to make the window card with the Picture This dies.  Plus two other cool projects using up card stock strips! Click on the photo below.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

  • String Art Technique; fun, easy & the results are a big WOW!


    I shared the String Art technique on last week's Live video.  It's been years since I tried it and it brought back how much fun it is!

    That cool swirly, colorful image is made with a length of twine, ink refills and a phone book.  Yes; a phone book!  Any book will do but I a phone book is okay to get inky.  

    And another neat thing about this technique is you get two finished panels from one technique!  

    You might notice the card on the right has thicker lines.  I believe that piece was on the bottom and had more moisture on it.  

    I used Bermuda Bay and Parakeet Party ink refills for this technique, along with about 14" of baker's twine. After the piece was created I let it dry and textured it with an embossing folder.  

    *Bermuda Bay card stock, ink pad and refill are already sold out.  Products can go so fast on the Last Chance list! 

    Other products used: 2022-24 In Color dots seen here (Just $4; reduced by 50%!), the Quatrefoil embossing folder, Butterfly Kisses 6 X 6" DSP, 2022-24 In Color Baker's Twine pack. 

    You really need to watch this technique in action.  It's so much easier than to try to explain it.  

    Watch the video here or click on the image below to see this special technique. It's the third project in the video.
