October’s Christmas Cards Class; or choose the tutorial only.

September 21, 2020

Last week was my first set of Christmas card classes and in 2 weeks will be the second set.

I always enjoy creating the cards for these classes. It can be a challenge to keep them simple but striking! Here's this month's set:

Save

I chose to feature a few new stamp sets or bundles from the 2020 Holiday Catalog.

From top left to bottom right:

Snow Wonder bundle in Misty Moonlight & black
Poinsettia Petals bundle in Real Red & Mossy Meadow
Joyful Holiday with Gleaming Ornaments, Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce & Green Foil paper
Life is Beautiful in Early Espresso & Balmy Blue

Class will be on both October 12th & 16th and we'll make 3 of each card with coordinating envelopes.

Do you save your scraps? Look what I did with mine!

April 30, 2024

Do you ever save your tiny scraps in the hopes of creating something with them? When I saw the little petals left from this pretty die-cut I saw a flower in my head. What do you think? Would you save them?

Save

This pretty & delicate die-cut is from the Thoughtful Wishes bundle in the new catalog. When I prepped cards for a Team Meeting a few weeks ago I had to save the pieces & try this! It features our new 2024-26 In Color Glimmer specialty paper in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up! This catalog goes live tomorrow! May 1st!!

Here are the three cards I made with the finished flowers:

Save

From left to right the colors are Summer Splash, Peach Pie and Petunia Pop.

I glued the petals to a small circle; then added the white center (Zinnia die) over them.

The large leaf die is from the new Thoughtful Wishes bundle & the circles are from the new Spotlight on Nature bundle (the dotted circle is from Everyday Details).

Save

The card above is Petunia Pop color. The pretty designer paper is our new 2024-26 Designer paper pack. I heat embossed the greeting (Spotlight on Nature set) with White embossing powder onto Black card stock. That pop of Black on a card adds a bit of elegance.

Which is your favorite of these three colors? Remember you can get in on my new product shares for just 1 more week: the In Color bundle, designer paper share or an In Color ribbon share. See details below:

Spotlight on Nature – sneak peak of the fabulous new bundle

April 26, 2024

Look at the beautiful card my friend & team member Candy sent me last week. One of our team challenges was to send RAK cards. Random Acts of Kindness. I was very grateful to receive one from her!

Save

It's made with a new bundle in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!. It's called Spotlight on Nature. It includes floral, leaves and butterflies along with pretty sentiments. And an amazing set of detailed & texture circle dies.

Notice her softly sponged background around the flowers & leaves. She used Balmy Blue, Old Olive & Calypso Coral here, coloring in her images with Blends markers. Note that Olive circle die-cut – you can spy it in the photo below.

We're going to love these dies!!

Save

Demonstrators were able to pre-order this gorgeous bundle in April but everyone can order it after May 1st. In fact you could add it to your Starter kit too.

I'll be sharing more projects with this bundle soon. Thanks for the fabulous card Candy!!
