Global Stamping Friends September Blog Hop New Holiday Products

Welcome to the Global Stamping Friends September Blog Hop as we showcase new Holiday products. The new September-December 2024 Mini Catalog just launched this week and it is filled with amazing new products to help you get started on your holiday projects. Our Design Team will be sharing their projects and ideas to help spark your creativity and get you in the holiday spirit.

I love creating clean and simple cards with designer series paper and I couldn't resist creating this card design using the new Splendid Autumn 6"x6" Designer Series Paper from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. I combined this pretty paper with the coordinating Autumn Expressions stamp set, which has a wonderful variety of sentiments. I wanted the designer series paper to be the star of the show, so I kept the card simple and I chose to use the Iridescent Foil Gems to add an elegant touch to the design.

Autumn Expressions stamp set (item #164174)

Splendid Autumn 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (item #164173)

Thick Basic White Cardstock (item #159229)

Versamark Pad (item #102283)

Thick Basic White Cardstock

Card Base - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" (Scored at 4 1/4")

Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper

Card Front - 5 1/4" x 4"

This beautiful clean and simple Fall themed card is easy to assemble and requires just a few supplies to create. I started with a Thick Basic White cardstock card base and added one of the beautiful designs from the new Splendid Autumn 6"x6" Designer Series Paper for my card front. I heat embossed the sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set with Gold embossing powder directly onto the designer series paper card front. To complete the design, I added two small Iridescent Foil Gems for a touch of bling. This scenic card design would work well for a variety of occasions including as a Thanksgiving card design.

We Create November Blog Hop Gratitude & Thanks

Welcome to the We Create November Blog Hop as we showcase projects with the theme " Gratitude & Thanks". You will be visiting with our talented Design Team Members as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you to create your own beautiful projects.

Fall is in full swing and Thanksgiving is just around the corner here in Colorado. The wonderful colors of this season are perfect for creating cards of gratitude and thanks and for my card design today, I wanted to create an organic feel to my design. For this card, I chose to use the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle and added the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set for the beautiful sentiment. I love that the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set has so many wonderful images to add texture to the background and I combined them with the detailed leaves and branch dies from the coordinating Intricate Leaves Dies to create this wonderful design. The Gold and Copper accents help to step up this card design without having to add any bling. The Linen Thread adds the perfect finishing touch for this card.

Products Used:

Gorgeous Leaves Bundle (item #158609)

Pretty Pumpkins stamp set (item #156472)

Crumb Cake Cardstock (item #120953)

Early Espresso Cardstock (item #119686)

Very Vanilla Cardstock (item #101650)

Gold Foil Sheets (item #132622)

Copper Foil Sheets (item #142020)

Soft Suede Classic Ink Pad (item #147115)

Crumb Cake Classic Ink Pad (item #147116)

Cajun Craze Classic Ink Pad (item #147085)

Versamark Pad (item #102283)

Metallics Embossing Powders (item #155555)

Linen Thread (item #104199)

Stampin' Dimensionals (item #104430)

Measurements:

Crumb Cake Cardstock

Card Base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (Scored at 4 1/4")

Early Espresso Cardstock

Layer 1 - 5 1/4" x 4"

Branch die cut with the Intricate Leaves Dies

Very Vanilla Cardstock

Card Front - 5" x 3 3/4"

Copper Foil

Two detailed leaves die cut with the Intricate Leaves Dies

Gold Foil

One long leaf die cut with the Intricate Leaves Dies

The textured background for this card design was created by stamping the Woodgrain image with Soft Suede ink several times using Generational stamping. I then stamped the large spotted background image with Crumb Cake ink repeating the process. I heat embossed the sentiment in the bottom right corner with Copper embossing powder and added the small leaves images in both Gold and Copper embossing to coordinate. I attached the die cut branch to the left side of the card front and then added the foil die cut leaves to give the impression they were falling from the tree. To add a touch of color, I stamped the smaller spotted background image with Cajun Craze ink, making sure to stamp off each time to tone down the intensity of the color. II adhered the card front to the Early Espresso cardstock layer to create a frame for the focal image. For the final touch, I added Linen Thread around the bottom of the card front, wrapping it twice and then tying a knot at the front. I attached the card front to the Crumb Cake card base with Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up. The beautiful card design works well as a Thanksgiving card or as general Thank You card. The embossing adds an elegant touch to the design without being to over the top.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own beautiful projects to share with the people in your life. Sending thank you cards is a wonderful way to show the people in your life how much you appreciate them.

Stamping With Friends Fall Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stamping With Friends Fall Blog Hop as we showcase projects to help you celebrate this wonderful season. Whether you love the beautiful colors, the fun activities or the special holidays that we celebrate at this time of the year, there is something to inspire us all. You will have the opportunity to visit with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators as they showcase their wonderful ideas and projects to help inspire you.

I love the colors of Fall and how they combine to create warm, beautiful projects. For my Fall card design, I chose to use the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle paired with the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper, both from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog. I chose to heat emboss the images with Copper embossing powder to help step up the design. This card design would be wonderful as a Thanksgiving card to send to family and friends to let them know that you are thinking of them.

Products Used:

Pretty Pumpkins Bundle (item #156478)

Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper (item #156494)

Stitched So Sweetly Dies (item #151690)

Cajun Craze Cardstock (item #119684)

Card Front - 5 1/2" x 4"

Very Vanilla Cardstock

Sentiment Label die cut with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies

Stamped and die cut pumpkin images using the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle

This pretty seasonal card showcases the beautiful colors of Fall using a piece of the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper for the background and Stampin' Blends Markers to color the pumpkin images. For the sentiment label, I heat embossed the sentiment in the top right corner and then heat embossed the border image towards the center of the bottom of the label. I also heat embossed the large pumpkins image onto a separate piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and die cut it with the coordinating dies. I love how Copper embossing looks with the Fall colors and how it steps up the design of this card. After coloring the images, I attached the pumpkins image to the sentiment label with Stampin' Dimensionals, so that it overlaps the stamped border image. I added a piece of the Diamond Weave Ribbon to the center of the card front to add some texture to the design. To help make the sentiment label design pop, I added it to a layer of Cajun Craze cardstock and the attached it to the card front over the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals. I love how this card turned out and how these beautiful colors combined to create a warm and inviting Fall card.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own beautiful Fall projects to celebrate the season.

Ink. Stamp. Share. August Monthly Blog Hop July-December 2021 Mini Catalog

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Monthly Blog Hop and this month we are showcasing products from the new July-December 2021 Mini Catalog. You will be visiting with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you. There are so many amazing new products to help you get ready for the upcoming seasons and holidays.

The July-December 2021 Mini Catalog is one of my favorites because it is full of wonderful products to help us create for the holidays and the upcoming Autumn and Winter seasons. Soon the leaves will be changing here in Colorado and I love the warm, earthy colors of Fall. Today I am sharing this beautiful Fall themed card featuring the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle paired with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder, which adds amazing texture to the background. While I created this card design with Thanksgiving in mind, it could be used for a variety of occasions and would make a great masculine card design.

Products Used:

Gorgeous Leaves Bundle (item #158609)

Timber 3D Embossing Folder (item #156406)

Through It Together stamp set (item #155796)

The secret to this Fall card is the texture and layers that help to build the design. I used the new Timber 3D Embossing Folder from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog to add texture to the Cinnamon Cider card front layer and attached it to the Soft Suede card base. For the Very Vanilla scalloped rectangle, I stamped the background using the large and small dotty background images. I used Cinnamon Cider Classic ink for the large image in the center and then layered the smaller image with Pear Pizzazz and Soft Suede Classic inks to create a colorful background design. I stamped the sentiment from the Through It Together stamp set with Soft Suede Classic ink, towards to the bottom of the rectangle. I attached the scalloped rectangle to the center of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. To create the focal design, I attached a piece of the Fine Art Ribbon to the scalloped rectangle, in a zig zag pattern, over the stamped background. I added the three leaves on top of the ribbon, layering them so that the stems intertwined at the base. I added a small bow created with Linen Thread to the base of the stems with a Mini Glue Dot. Despite all the layering, this card design is relatively flat and is suitable for mailing without extra postage. I love how this card design captures the feeling of Autumn.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own beautiful Fall projects to welcome the new season. There are so many wonderful options to explore in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog.
