These pretty cards are the last of the Monochromatic Team swaps

August 22, 2025

I’ve been sharing our Team swaps this week that all feature a Monochromatic theme. This means the colors should include hues of similar colors.

First is a pretty and soothing card made by Jacki.

She used the Prairie Grass stamp set seen here. Her colors include Very Vanilla with Crumb Cake. Her greeting is from the stamp set seen here.

I love how the grass image repeats itself on the Vanilla layer in the background.

Measurements:

Crumb Cake 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, 3″ X 4 1/4″
Vanilla 4″ X 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ X 4″

Next is a pretty wedding or anniversary card made by Marla.

She used the Lifetime of Love stamp set seen here and the coordinating dies seen here. I love how these delicate dies inlay so perfectly.

Her colors include Navy, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake & White. She also used a new embossing folder called Jolly Holly Hybrid seen here. These leaves allow her to lift them a bit to add more dimension.

The Designer paper is 2 5/8″ wide and is the Country Lace pack and is discounted and on the Last Chance list now. See it here.

And lastly is this soft & pretty card made by Paula.

Her card features the blue tones of Blueberry Bushel with Azure Afternoon. Her stamp sets are Elements of Text seen here and Textured Notes seen here. The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set seen here.

I hope you enjoyed seeing the beautiful Monochromatic swaps this week. I have a super talented team!

Time of Giving for your Holiday projects with video tutorial.

October 18, 2021

On last Tuesday's FB Live I focused on the Time of Giving bundle in the current 2021 Holiday Catalog. This bundle is for many occasions and more fun and versatile than I thought!

I'll start with the autumn card featuring the baby wipe technique.

Save

Isn't it pretty?! My colors are Bermuda Bay, Pumpkin Pie & Old Olive. Those are the ink refills I used on my baby wipe. If you haven't done the baby wipe technique please watch the video below or click here. It's so simple and all you need is a folded baby wipe and a few colors of ink refills.

Save

The little die-cut leaves on the greeting are also in this bundle. The Gold Fine Art ribbon is from the annual catalog as well as the white die-cut for the greeting. It's in the Stitched So Sweetly set.

Save

All of these images & dies are from this Tidings of Giving bundle seen here.

Save

Next is a beautiful snowflake card that's mostly white but the pop of colors shows off this pretty die wonderfully! It creates a 'window' effect. I die-cut three dies in a row on my White CS and for the soft colors under it I used my blending brushes with Just Jade & Bermuda Bay ink.

Save

For this next card I chose the Santa & sleigh die. As you can see I left a wide border on this one so I could stamp the greeting directly on it. This pretty background paper is from the Beauty of the Earth DSP in the Stampin' Up! annual catalog seen here.

Save

And here is a card using the ornament die. Again I cut three in a row, lowering the die each time. Another bit of the Beauty of the Earth designer paper on the side and a greeting added with the Double Oval Punch. Glittered white ribbon finishes it off.

Save

And below is the video where you can see how I achieved these techniques. I hope you watch! *Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here too!

Last of the Autumn Themed swaps; such neat ideas!

October 15, 2021
Tracey made this first card with the Nature's Harvest bundle & Harvest Meadow designer series paper. I love the way her thin strips of DSP create this stunning background.

Then she softened it with a piece of vellum that she textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder.

Save

Her greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set – it was a bonus free offer in our Sale-a-Bration catalog during August & September. Underneath the torn greeting strip is some Diamond Weave trim, dyed to match.
