Time of Giving for your Holiday projects with video tutorial.


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.

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.  

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.


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

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.

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. 

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. 

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!

    Today I’m sharing some of my Team swap cards from our September swap.

    First is a cute card made by Joan:

    Look at her amazing coloring on the cups! And it’s a fun fold with a gift card option too!

    Her colors include Timid tiger, Vanilla with Daffodil Delight. She colored everything with Blends markers. The center panel is the Beautiful Bokeh DSP.

    Next is a sweet card made by Candy who also used this bundle:

    Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon & Pumpkin Pie.

    She textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Plaid 3D embossing folder. The circle is about 2 1/2″ around and is a Stylish Shapes die-cut as well as the greeting die-cut.

    ~~~

    And lastly today is a perfectly Autumn card made by Gwen. It’s her first time swapping! She did a wonderful job!

    Each of these cards features the More Than Autumn bundle and they’re all so unique. It’s a pretty big bundle with a wide variety of images and dies. She used the new Gathering Together specialty paper seen here. She added a center strip under her images that’s 1 3/4″ wide. Cajun Craze with Very Vanilla are her card stock colors. The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies.

    Thanks for stopping in; I hope you enjoyed the card swaps today. I’ll share more soon!

  • A neat vertical ‘Book Binding’ card fold with video tutorial


    Here’s the second card I shared on last week’s video. It’s a neat book binding card that’s vertical instead of the usual horizontal card.

    The colors include Gray Granite & Early Espresso with White. I chose these colors to match the Toile designer paper from the Holiday Catalog. See it here.

    The view above shows the card open. The card starts as a normal 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ card base but has two extra score lines. See the measurements and directions here on the free project sheet. Click on this link to download or print it.

    I made multiples of this card for an online swap I participated in. I love swapping and making multiples of the same card.

    Click play on the video below to see how it’s made.

  • Double Flap fold with Branching Out with video & free project sheet


    I shared this card on last week’s Live:

    It features the new Branching Out bundle from the 2025 Holiday catalog from Stampin’ Up! See the bundle here.

    My colors include Early Espresso with Old Olive, Pecan Pie & White.

    It opens with two flaps; one on the right opens first. Then the left does too. As you can see I textured the Olive layer with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder. The notched frame dies are included in the Branching Out bundle.

    The designer paper on the left is the Need for Tweed seen here.

    I created a free project sheet for this card. Click on the following link to print or download it. Branching Out Double flap card
