Swedish Stars in both Shimmer Vellum & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper with easy video tutorial

January 3, 2022

Have you seen some of these fancy folded stars online and thought you could never make them? Well this one is so much easier than it looks and I made them on a FB Live recently.

Honestly they are quite easy. Basically you need a 6 X 6" piece of Designer paper – twelve 1/2" X 6" strips to create them. I did add a medallion in the center but it's not necessary at all. Here I used the brand new Simply Marbelous designer paper from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's available in 6 different colors and absolutely gorgeous!!

I also made a few in our 2021-23 In Color Shimmer seen here & Gold Shimmer vellum seen here. I used snowflakes from the So Many Snowflakes dies in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

You can see the video below; I share these beautiful Swedish stars as well as a two cards featuring a brand new stamp set; Calming Camellia!

Sunflower Fields card kit to go; or PDF tutorial option. Reserve yours!

September 9, 2026

Fall is coming soon for some of us and the new Sunflower Fields designer series paper may be just what you need to get your autumnal cards made.

I chose it for one of my September card kits to go. You can see the entire suite here.

Save

Most of these cards are special fun fold layouts and one includes a gift card option. I design my card kits to feature the designer paper, ribbons and gems. You don’t need any special stamps to finish them; only greetings.

My pre-cut kits to go include all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts and punched pieces. You will receive 1/2 pkg of the Sunflower Fields designer paper and will use the measurements in the tutorial to cut them for each card. Everything else is cut for you.

You also receive a share of the Golden Glow ribbon and the Radiant Gems; it’s about $20 in Stampin’ Up! products! The PDF tutorial is included in the price of $32 plus shipping. I highly recommend adding on another card kit to save on shipping costs.

You can get the pre-cut kit to go here. There is also a PDF tutorial option for $17 here.

See all of the choices in my shop here. I have many other kits or tutorials available.

I’ll share my second card kit to go tomorrow; think Christmas!

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.

I created a free project sheet for this card. You can click here to access it.

I also shared how to make it in a video seen below. I hope you watch it. I also share many of the new September specials happening with Stampin’ Up!

September Specials and New Catalog Party this week!

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!
