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!

  • Love of Leaves; get two colors on one stamp!

    I was inspired by a card swap I received to create this pretty card.  It features the Love of Leaves bundle; one of my favorites in the new Stampin' Up! 2020 Holiday Catalog.  there's also a 3/4" strip of the beautiful Plaid Tidings designer paper here which is where the color combination came from. 

    We made this colorful card at my Flowerbug's Team gathering on Saturday.  It features a two toned stamping technique you should really try!  The solid images are perfect for it!

    Can you see the two toned effect on the largest leaf?   It's done like this:  

    • Ink the leaf in Pumpkin Pie (the lightest color of the two).
    • Next use a sponge dauber (can use a sponge too, but it's more difficult to control) and add Rich Razzleberry ink (the darker color) to the edges of the leaf image.  
    • Huff and stamp. Then die-cut with the Stitched Leaves dies. 

    I did the same thing on the long leaf with Crushed Curry & Pumpkin Pie but it isn't showing up as well.

    Other details:

    • White CS is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" and textured with the Stitched Leaves dies
    • Plaid Tidings DSP is 3/4" X 5 1/4" 
    • Rich Razzleberry main card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". 
    • Inks are Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. 
    • The greeting is punched from the Label Me Lovely punch. I started out with a 1" White strip of card stock.  Stamp the greeting and insert into the punch for a unique shape!

  • Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay

    This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies.  The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow my page so you get notified! 

    My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies.  But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards: 

    August 10th star cards Save

    I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock.  Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done!  So quick & easy! 

    Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.  

    Measurements:
    • Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
    • Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide
