Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Greenery EF with Traditions of Christmas DSP

Posted on November 12, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Embossing folders help create wonderful texture on a card and I’ve used the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder to do just that – it’s a great background embossing folder.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Greenery w/ Traditions of C'mas card front

I’m leaving the photo in large format so you can really see the embossing folder & how that added texture really makes the. card – at least it does for me! Of course the wonderful die cut from the Traditions of Christmas SDSP is pretty special too. Add in the gold foil and the Traditional Sparkling Sequins and the card is a win/ win. To create the background the floral die cut sits on, I used the Label Me Grateful Dies to die cut from the center of the gold foil used to surround the Cherry Cobbler smaller panel. I cut it in half across the center and adhered a the Basic White die cut from the same Label Me Grateful Dies. The floral die cut is attached with dimensionals while everything else is added with adhesive directly to each layer. Those card cuts will be listed below.

Stampin' Up! Christmas Gallery inside card

For the inside of the card, I used the Christmas Gallery stamp set to stamp this gorgeous poinsettia in Cherry Cobbler ink and the leaves in Old Olive ink. In the center of the flower is another Traditional Sparkling Sequin in Gold. The Basic White panel was added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Greenery EF w/ Traditonals of Christmas SDSP card & envelope

For the envelope, another panel of the Traditions of Christmas SDSP was added to the flap and another poinsettia & leaves was stamped on the envelope front, which I forgot to photograph!

Here’s the 2nd card… no embossing folder used and while it’s nice, I really prefer the card with the embossing folder. The inside and envelope had the same treatment – and I’ve left them in large format so you can see the difference. :O) Just curious – do you prefer one over the other?

Stampin’ Up! NEW Friendly Foliage in Greens

Posted on November 11, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

First of all, happy Veterans Day to all our veterans out there. Thank you for your sacrifices and service to our country. You are amazing human beings and I am so grateful. Big salutes to those who have served in the past, and to those currently serving – bless you… and your families, for they have served in a different way and suffered too. ❤️

Now – my card for today is a NEW November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE release called Friendly Foliage.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card front

This card has some layers… and begins with a card base in Pool Party with a layer of Nests of Winter DSP. The next two layers are Basic White and Woven Textures DSP. These all all attached directly to the card base. The next layers are attached with dimensionals: Basic White layered with another pattern in Nests of Winter then the Basic White stamped & die cut image from Friendly Foliage. This image is the focal point of the card… stamped in Shaded Spruce ink, die cut and attached with liquid glue. I then added Wink of Stella to all the leaves, bringing more attention to the pretty image. I splattered Wink of Stella to the entire card as well. While that was drying, I stamped the sentiment from Friendly Foliage in Pool Party ink on the Basic White strip and added it with dimensionals as well. Final touch… three Opal Rounds.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card inside

For the inside of my card I added a layer of Woven textures DSP as a background to my Basic White stamped panel. The sentiment is from Friendly Foliage stamp set and stamped in Pool Party ink. The sweet leaves are a die cut from the beautiful Friendly Foliage Dies.

For the envelope… more of the Nests of Winter DSP was added to the envelope – no naked envelopes for me.

Stampin' Up! Friendly Foliage card & envelope

Due to the colors, this is a definite feminine card. When I create with this next, I’m going to really try to make a more masculine one. When my hubby saw this card, he called the image pussy willows and I hadn’t thought of that. Pussy Willows are definitely brown, so next time, masculine, in brown tones. Card cuts for this card are listed below.

Stampin’ Up! Triple Panel Card with Thoughtful Journey DSP

Posted on November 8, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello Saturday! I have two cards for you today – both Triple Panel Cards (my name for them :O) made with a single piece of the Thoughtful Journey DSP. Because of the colors that ebb and flow in this extraordinary DSP, each card has a different color card base – reflecting & highlighting the main ‘theme’ color. Again, these two cards are from the same panel of Thoughtful Journey DSP!

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey in Petunia Pop

Stampin' Up! Thoughtful Journey in Misty Moonlight

Each of the triple panels are 1 x 4 layered on card stock 3 1/4 x 4 1/8. Another layer of Thoughtful Journey DSP (4 x 5 14) was added to the card base (4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2). The triple panel was attached to the card base with dimensionals. Each has a coordinating ribbon: 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon in Petunia Pop & 1/4″ Misty Moonlight Ribbon. Both also have Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots on appropriate cards: Berry Burst & Night of Navy. The sentiments are from The Right Words stamp set: Petunia Pop ink die cut with Traditional Labels Dies & Misty Moonlight ink, fussy cut. The sentiments were added with dimensionals over the ribbon.

Stampin' Up! Triple Panel card in Petunia Pop, inside

Stampin' Up! Triple Panel card in Misty Moonlight, inside

A strip of Thoughtful Journey was added to each inside panel, one is 1/2″, the other 5/8″. Again, sentiments are in Petunia Pop ink & Misty Moonlight ink using The Right Words stamp set.

What is so interesting about these two cards, is how totally different they are, yet the same design from the same 6×6 piece of Designer Series Paper. Stampin’ Up! just makes it so easy! Love, love.

Stampin’ Up! Floral Charm Notepad Holder

Posted on November 7, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Hello from my craft room in New Jersey. Yesterday I was creating a notepad holder for my purse. It’s a notepad I purchased some time ago and I like to dress things up a bit when I carry them with me, so no simple ‘just a notepad’ kind of gal 😀 I could give you measurements, but this is not a standard notepad to purchase from a store like Staples; this is a notepad I had on hand. I got my inspiration by looking at several notepads on Pinterest and then settled on one from The Paper Pixie, and made adjustments for this particular notepad.

This just turned out so much better than I thought it would that I’m extra pleased. I began using the backing from our Stampin’ Up! DSP papers – you know, the ones that tell you what the DSP is. They are white and fairly sturdy, not too bulky. I wanted something more than just card stock since I would have it in my handbag. Once I cut it down to the size I needed, I added the Floral Charm DSP, then scored and burnished. Additional supplies used were: the new Creative Haven Dies (Nov. ONLINE EXCLUSIVE), Round We Go Dies (the larger scalloped circle), Stylish Shapes Dies (the stamped circle), Notes & Totes stamp set for the sentiment and finally Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots, oh, and Blackberry Bliss ink for the sentiment on front. I also used Velcro dots and in my stash- a perfect matching pen from an ON Stage event – bonus! 😁 It even writes in purple!

Here are additional photos… the one on left shows the top decorated notepad – love this added ‘charm’! The photo on right shows the ‘holder’ for the notepad. Since I have another notepad that will fit in this holder, this makes it extra nice to replace. I made this support 3 1/2″ for added support. The width of this is the width of the notepad plus an additional 1″ on each end to secure into the inside of the notepad holder. When securing it, I found it best to add adhesive to the ends while it was wrapped around the notepad & add it in place. This way, it is in the proper place to hold the notepad. Once the adhesive is dry, remove the notepad.

Stampin' Up! Floral Charm Notepad holder, open & with notepad

Stampin' Up! Mini Notepad holder inside without notepad

Stampin' Up! Floral Charm Notepad Holder w/ SU! pen

Here you can see the extension to hold the pen – and that in fact it really is a SU!~ pen!!! The holder for the pen is wide (1 3/4″), again for security, so it doesn’t flop but is held in place. It is approximately 1 7/8 and scored at each end 3/8″. I used a bone folder to ’round’ the area between the score lines so it would wrap easily around the pen. Each pen is a bit different in dimension, so I encourage you to know what pen you will be using so this ‘pen holder’ fits the individual pen.

I hope you enjoyed this project today. I had extra fun creating it. Thanks for stopping by. May you have a beautiful day. Make someone happy by sending them a handmade card (or project) filled with ❤️

Stampin’ Up! Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop Sketch Challenge

Posted on November 6, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome to our blog hop! We have a fun sketch challenge today ands I’ve chosen to work with the new November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE suite of products called Brushed with Beauty. As a demonstrator I was able to purchase this early in a pre-order and I l-o-v-e it! The colors are really ‘up my alley’ so to speak. Yesterday I shared several links to cards I made with this suite of products. You can see that post here

And … today is hubby & my anniversary… of several/ many years. I am so blessed and thankful. So, today’s card is in celebration of that. ❤️

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty card front

I started with a Very Vanilla card base and adhered this striped pattern (it’s the ‘b’side to the floral paper showing) directly to the base. I then cut a smaller piece of the same DSP (the ‘a’side) and adhered it to Very Vanilla just slightly larger. This was added to the front with dimensionals. Next I stamped the larger floral outline stamp in Calypso Coral on a scrap of Very Vanilla and colored it with Stampin’ Blends Bronze & Ivory. I die cut this and the detail die (this one is from the Vellum in the suite of products) and attached the two together with a glue dot in the center of the flower. I attached a Pearls of Beauty embellishment to the flower center in Calypso Coral and added it to the card front with liquid adhesive. I die cut two elements from the Words of Beauty Dies: the background layer in very Vanilla and the detail of the word in Petal Pink that had an adhesive sheet attached to it. After die cutting I put them together & added them to the card front with mini dimensionals. I added two more of the Pearls of Beauty in Calypso Coral.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty products, inside card

For the inside… I was playing around with color for the flower… stamped the outline stamp on a Very Vanilla scrap in Calypso Coral but colored this one with Stampin’ Blends 1000 & 500. The 1000 is the pinkish color and the 500 is the soft shade of brown. After die cutting the flower & adhering it to a Very Vanilla insert, I added a single Pearls of Beauty embellishment in the Crumb Cake kind of color. The top sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso using the Words of Beauty stamp set. The lower sentiment is stamped in Petal Pink ink using the Sweetly Scripted stamp set.

Stampin' Up! 11/06 hop Brushed with Beauty card & envelope

Keeping this envelope really simple… another panel of the Brushed with Beauty DSP showcasing a Petal Pink coloring, was added to the flap and trimmed to fit. You can purchase these products from my online store – see the link below!

Stampin’ Up! Nests of Winter DSP & Sketch

Posted on November 2, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

WOW – November! Halloween is behind us & Thanksgiving is coming soon. What a time to be be thankful & grateful… yes, yes. I’m thankful for all of you & grateful for this fun craft which I so enjoy. So MANY blessings… lest I get sappy… let me share today’s card.

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP card front

This cute little bird has been sitting on my desk for a bit. He was supposed to be used on another project & well, I got busy with other cards, designs & stuff. He was die cut using a Spotlight on Nature Die, cut directly from the Nests of Winter DSP. I mounted him on a Cherry Cobbler circle die cut with the Stitched Shapes Dies. Then I pulled various papers from the Nests of Winter DSP pack.

the cross panel is 2 1/4 x 3 7/8
the two vertical panels are 1 x 3 & 1 1/4 x 4

These were adhered on the Basic White 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 pice which was attached to yet another panel of DSP 4 x 5 1/4. These were added to the Gray Granite card base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4) with dimensionals. The circles were also added to the card with dimesnionals. Then these wonderful Streaked Dots were scattered for additional charm.

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP, inside card

For the inside of the card I fussy cut with my paper snips this adorable bird & adhered it with liquid glue to the Basic White insert (4 x 5 1/4).

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter DSP card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the Nests of Winter DSP attached to the flap & trimmed to fit. DONE! Cut the DSP panels ahead of time & this card layout is a quick 1, 2, 3. Add a sentiment depending on the front focal point, or not, as I didn’t here. It’s easy to add a message inside when this card is needed for something special.

Stampin’ Up! Triple Pane cards with Brushed with Beauty DSP

Posted on October 31, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Can you tell? I am obsessed with Brushed with Beauty DSP 🥴 and today’s cards – all three – use the same pattern of DSP but different card bases & layers. How I determined which card bases & layers was by the colors in that particular set of three panels, what really showed off the colors in that set of panels. Here are the three cards…

Stampin' Up! Brushed w/ Beauty, Calypso Coral

Calypso Coral card base with Darling Duckling for layers with a Linen Thread double bow, no additional embellishment.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty w/ Petal Pink

Petal Pink card base with Very Vanilla & Mossy Meadow layers; 1/4″ Mossy Meadow & Gold Ribbon under the sentiment & Low Profile Sparkling Dots in Mossy Meadow for embellishment.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty with Mossy Meadow

Mossy Meadow card base with a single layer of Petal Pink behind triple panel & 1/4″ Mossy Meadow & Gold Ribbon with Basic White.

On the inside of each card…

Stam[pin' Up! Petals of Beauty inside card 1

Petal Pink & Mossy Meadow for stamping the flower & leaf images. A single Low Profile Sparkle Dot in Darling Duckling for the flower center.

Stampin' Up! Petals of Beauty inside card 2

Again, Petal Pink and Mossy Meadow inks for the flower & leaf images and again the Low Profile Sparkle Dots for the flower center.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty for card 3

And finally, a 5/8″ wide strip of the Brushed with Beauty DSP adhered to the Basic White insert.

And here they are with their envelopes…

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beaty w/ envelope, Calypso Coral

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty card & envelope card 2 - Petal Pink

Stampin’ Up! Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop Christmas Fun Fold

Posted on October 30, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

We have a perfect challenge to get us excited about Christmas! Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop 😀 I’m using the Bauble Blooms bundle to create this fun fold today.

I’m using a couple of different coordinating Designer Series papers for my card today: the bauble is die cut from Need for Tweed 12 x 12, the front layer on the flap & the card front is Traditions of Christmas. I love how they work together, brining together both gold & rustic patterns. Now let’s open & see the flap open then the entire card.

Stampin' Up! Bauble Blooms flap card, open

Above you can see all the various papers used to create a really eye-catching card. And, it really is not terribly bulky. Using Designer Series Papers that are lighter weight for layers help keep the card light for traditional postage. Let’s do a quick step by step…

Directions:

Die cut the bauble with the Bauble Blooms Dies from both DSP & Old Olive card stock – this creates strength to put on dimensionals. If you so desire, you can adhere the two panels together, then die cut – it works well!
Cut layers for card base: Cherry cobbler 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4; flap is 3 5/8 x 3 5/8 scored on one side at 1/2″: add to card base centering top to bottom with score line at edge. You must make certain you can close the flap over the closedc card. If necessary you can trim 1/16 from card front.
Decorate as shown: layers are 3 x 3 1/2 for flap front & inside flap; card front layers are 2 tone card stock 4 x 5 1/4, DSP 3 7/8 x 5 1/8
Inside layers are: front inside left – DSP 4 x 5 1/4; stamped section – 4 x 5 1/4
Additional decorations were die cut from: Peaceful Gardens Glimmer Paper & Need for Tweed, plus Old Olive card stock & gold foil
Embellishments are Traditional Sparkling Sequins

Stampin’ Up! ‘Windowpane’ Look with Brushed with Beauty DSP

Posted on October 27, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

It’s cool again today – 40 degrees… I’m definitely going to wear a heavier jacket when I walk tomorrow! Brushed with Beauty dSP is a new release item come Nov 4 as part of an ONLINE EXCLUSivE suite of products. The paper is gorgeous and I can’t quit using it. When I showed this card to my hubby he immediately said it looked like a windowpane – so I’m coining that word for making this kind of layout. 😁

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty 'windowpane' card front

What is great about this layout is how versatile it is with so many of our Stampin’ Up! papers. And here’s how to do it…

DIRECTIONS FOR WINDOWPANE CARD

cut card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 & score @ 4 1/4 (Mossy Meadow
Cut another piece of card stock (same color) 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 & run it through the Gathering Leaves embossing folder. Adhere this to the card front
Cut DSP (Brushed with Beauty) 2 3/4 x 4 then cut that with short edge at top:
- 1 3/4 x 1 1/2 & 1 x 2 1/2 (that leaves a piece 1 3/4 x 2 1/2 & 1 x 1 1/2)
- Adhere these to a card panel 3 x 4 1/4 with even separation (Early Espresso)
- Adhere this to a card panel 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 (Very Vanilla)
- Add these to the card baser with dimensionals
- Stamp sentiment in Early Espresso ink using the Just A Note stamp set
- Make a double Linen Thread bow; add to card front with a glue dot
- Add sentiment with dimensionals over the bow

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty card inside

For the inside… I cut a piece of this stunning Brushed with Beauty DSP 1/2 x 3 3/4 and adhered it to the bottom of a Vary Vanilla panel 3 3/4 x 5, then added this to the inside of the card.
