Pretty Christmas Classics card; video & free project sheet

We made this pretty card at my November card clubs. I also featured it on last week's video too.

I feel the clean layout shows off the pretty die-cuts. A simple piece of designer paper and a textured background add all the details needed to make this stand out card.

I gave them a few choices on their cards – greetings and embossing folders.

I've found the Christmas Classics bundle to be my 'go to' for holiday cards this year.  Between the pretty dies and the wonderful greetings and botanical assortment it has it all! I love how the white greeting die-cut fits so perfectly on the detailed leaf die-cut. See this bundle here.

• Sharing the Poetic Petals bundle in a unique way! Video & free project sheet too.

  September 8, 2026

  Here’s the card I shared on last week’s Live video. It features the new Poetic Petals bundle.

  Save

  Isn’t it cute?! The colors are Barely Blush with Lemon Lolly and Old Olive. I die-cut the floral square and the Perennial Postage outer edge at the same time. Then I colored the flowers, frame and leaves with Blends markers. The frame is reinserted into the window and secured together with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Watch the video to see how it’s done.

  The Poetic Petals bundle is new this month and available in our online store.

  The stamp set is wonderful with mixed fonts and greetings for many occasions. You can see the bundle here. But the dies are what sold me:

  There are 6 dies in this set; three frames and three inside floral die-cuts.

  September 1, 2026

  It all begins today for Stampin’ Up! September specials! But before I get into those I have to remind my local gals to stop in for my New Catalog party on Thursday.

  Save

  It’s the last event I’ll be holding at my home studio in Minot. We love our new home in Bismarck though but it is hard to say goodbye to our Minot friends. I sincerely hope I see most of you again since I hope to return occasionally for a class or Bunco event.

  There’s a new Product of the Month for September and it’s a winner!

  It’s called Luxe Foliage Specialty Designer paper and can be seen here. It’s yours for just $5 once your order reaches the $75 point. I love that they offer a new item each and every month. There’s a nice variety to choose from. I cannot believe there is still some of the Glow of Harvest DSP left. And the Begonia Belle stamp set is still available as well.

  There is also a few new kits in our Kit Collection too. You can see it all here!

  There are new Online Exclusives that start today! Click here to see them.

  Here’s the pretty card I shared last week on video. We made them at my August Card Clubs. Sadly it was the last Club I’ll hold in Minot. Our house has an offer in pending and I’ll have just one last event this Thursday there. My home studio has so many wonderful memories from my friends/customers. It’s hard to say goodbye!

  I’m holding my Holiday Catalog open house September 3rd from 3:30-6 pm. If you’re local please come to see me (and the displays, food and deals!)

  It features the new Botanical Expressions die (the white leaves die-cut) seen here. It’s a single die that can be used in multiple ways. I especially love the cut lines in the dies.
  *Tip: rub waxed paper over the cutting side of your dies every few cuts; it releases the card stock easily then.

  Save

  Here I adhered it over dark green DSP and added Barely Blush DSP above and below it. There are so many pretty details here!

  The floral DSP is called Bloom Boutique Specialty paper and can be seen here. It’s filled with gold foil highlights.

  This card is a landscape gatefold card. The Peaceful Pine layer is adhered to only the left side of the card base.
  My greetings are from the Scalloped Blooms and Framed Violets sets. The inside flowers are from the Flowering Meadow stamp set.

  Save

  That pretty scalloped greeting die is also from the Scalloped Blooms bundle seen here.

  
  I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it. It has measurements, supplies, photos and directions.

  I also shared the ‘how to’ video below. I hope you watch!
