Stampin’ Up! FREE SHIPPING PLUS Dressing Up the October PP Cozy Christmas

Posted on October 21, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

SEE BELOW FOR INFORMATION ABOUT FREE SHIPPING

OCT 22-24!

Good Tuesday morning. Do you participate in the Paper Pumpkin program – getting this fun box each month to create what’s inside? I do, and sometimes I make alternatives and sometimes I don’t. This months October Cozy Christmas is one of those I didn’t do alternatives, but I did dress up the envelopes and the inside of each card.

For this card… on the envelope – as you can see – I stamped this tree image from the Ornamental Christmas stamp set. Just as an FYI, this also comes with dies. For the inside, I layered a piece of Basic Beige, then added a stamped layer of Basic White. The stamp used is the same as the envelope – Ornamental Christmas.

Stampin' Up! Oct. PP Cozy C'mas card set 1 inside

For the 2nd set of cards in the October Paper Pumpkin, I stamped the envelopes with another of the stamps in Ornamental Christmas stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy C'mas card set 2

For the inside of the cards… in my box was an extra green card base so I used that for the background on two cards then a strip for the third card. For an inside sentiment I used the Christmas Word Collage in Basic White. I highlighted each with Garden Green ink and a Blending Brush. Here they are.

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy C'mas card 2 inside, Dear Santa

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy C'mas card 2 inside

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy Christmas card 2, Fa La La La

Joy to the World is the theme for the third set of cards in this October Paper Pumpkin Cozy Christmas box.

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy C'mas third set of cards

The same sentiment is stamped on all three of these envelopes and it comes from the stamp set Ornamental Christmas using Garden Green ink. On the inside I used sentiments from the Greetings For All Mix & Match Ephmera Pack on a Basic White panel that had been adhered to a Crumb Cake piece slightly larger.

Stampin' Up! Oct PP Cozy C'mas 3rd set, Happy Christmas

Stampin' Up! OCct PP Cozy C'mas, 3rd set small Merry C'mas

Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Cards

Posted on October 20, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Good Morning Monday! Whew – the start of another week in October… Where has the month gone? For me, it has flown by – how about for you? I have a pretty set of cards for you today, all the same layout, same dies, same ribbon, same embellishments, just different colors in the Season of Elegance SDSP. I simply couldn’t quit making these. I was inspired by another demonstrator, Julie Gilson.

Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas card 1

Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas card 2

Card 1 is in Pretty Peacock. Card 2 is in Basic Beige. Card 3 is in Cherry Cobbler. All three use the same Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder and similar layers.

Card 4 uses a brand new Beautiful Pattern embossing folder, coming in the November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE release – available Nov 4. It also has similar layers and comes in Mossy Meadow.

Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas card 3

Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas card 4

For sentiments on the card fronts I used the Christmas Words Collage bundle die cut from Gold Foil and also Basic White (for the word peace). This set embosses the words & die cuts at the same time, so it’s quite easy to have a bunch words at the ready 😀

Here are the insides of each of those cards – a simple strip of the Season of Elegance DSP added to the bottom of the inside panel.

Stampin' Up! Oranmental C'mas inside card 1

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas inside card 2

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas inside card 3

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas inside card 4

And below… the envelopes for these beautiful cards – more of the same Season of Elegance SDSP adhered & trimmed to fit the flap. Simple, elegant finish to these stunning cards.

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas card & envelope 1

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas card & envelope 2

Stampin' Up! Oranmental C'mas card & envelope 3

Stampin' Up! Ornamental C'mas card & envelope 4

You will notice some of these are on card bases 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 while others are on card bases of 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. It honestly didn’t matter either way, so if I had that already cut, that’s what I used. Super fun cards to make multiples of while also making them unique in color & words.

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek Brushed with Beauty products in an Accordion Fold

Posted on October 18, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Good morning – it’s Saturday & cool in this part of New Jersey – 40 degrees! Blanket time and possibly time to bring in firewood for a fire tonight. We’ll see. I have two cards for you today, using products from the November ONLINE EXCLUSIVE release. As a Demonstrator, I am privileged to be able to preorder products before they become available to the public. This is a beautiful suite of two bundles, DSP & Vellum, embellishments and an embossing folder. For today’s cards I did not use the embossing folder. I have two cards to share; one in landscape & one in portrait.

Stampin' Up! Brushed w/ Beauty landscape accordion fold

Stampin' Up! Brushed w/ Beauty portrait accordion fold

Aren’t these papers stunning – Brushed with Beauty DSP. Love, love. On the landscape card are die cuts in vellum, using the Petals of Beauty Dies. The sentiment & banner die cut use items from the two bundles: Petals of Beauty and Words of Beauty. The bow is Old Olive Linen Thread – a September ONLINE EXCLUSIVE that comes in a two pack – Early Espresso is the other color of Linen Thread in the duo pack. The portrait card again shows die cuts, this time in card stock. I love this flower with the delicate edge! I stamped the flower image twice in Basic Beige ink, layered them then added the delicate die cut in Basic White. A single Pearls of Beauty embellishment is in the flower center. The ribbon is Braided Trim from the Floral Charm Suite (July ONLINE EXCLUSIVES) And here’s the inside of each.

Stampin' Up! Brushed with Beauty accordian fold inside landscape card

Stampin' Up! Brushed w/ Beauty accordion fold portrait card inside

In the landscape card above I added a Branching Out die cut, the smallest, and no stamping. (It is available in the September to December 2025 Mini Catalog) The inside looks a bit plain, so I’m going to add something for sure. On the portrait card, I stamped the two step floral image on Basic White, using Petal Pink & Calypso Coral inks, then die cut it with the Petals of Beauty Dies. This comes from the Petals of Beauty stamp set & coordinating dies in the suite of products. The leaf image is die cut from Mossy Meadow. I did add the Pearls of Beauty embellishment to the flower center. It’s fairly flat & doesn’t add a lot of bulk. The sentiment is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink & comes from Words of Beauty stamp set – part of the suite of products. Below is a top down view of each of the cards.

Stampin' Up! Accordion fun fold top down view, landscape card

Stampin' Up! Accordion card top-down view Portrait card

Time for instructions in how to make this fun fold accordion design.

Basic Directions for this Accordion Fun Fold:

cut the card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and score @ 5 1/2
cut the DSP 4 x 12 & score @ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, & 9
adhere one end of the DSP to the inside of the card base with equal borders on three sides
adhere opposite end in the same fashion
for the front…
- cut a card stock panel in a coordinating color 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
  - cut a DSP layer 4 x 5 1/4 & adhere to coordinating card stock
    - attach these two with dimensionals to the card front
    - decorate as desired

Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Garden DSP Fun Fold for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on October 16, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Welcome to Thursday and this wonderful group of ‘hoppers’! We have a color challenge today and I have chosen to work with the Peaceful Garden DSP, the Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper & a bundle called Ornamental Christmas to create a fun fold.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Garden DSP Fun Fold card front

I started with a Secret Sea card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 & cut two strips of the Peaceful Garden DSP 1 1/2 x 4 1/8 and attached to each end leaving equal borders at top, bottom & side. I then took another piece of Secret Sea cut 4 1/4 x 5 12 & scored it on the long side @ 1 3/8 x 2 3/4. Burnish it well so it makes a nice ‘Z’ fold.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Garden Z fun fold, top view

Before attaching it to the card base, I added another strip of Peaceful Garden DSP to the inside middle panel of the ‘Z’. I attached it to the card base, centering it. I stamped a Basic White panel 2 5/8 x 4 1/8 using the Ornamental Christmas stamp set & Misty Moonlight ink then added it to the inside panel of the ‘Z’.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Garden Z fold inside

I took yet another panel of Secret Sea 2 3/4 x 4 1/4, layered it with Peaceful Garden DSP 2 5/8 x 4 1/8 then attached it to the left panel of the z- fold. I cut a circle from Basic White using the Ornamental Christmas Dies, used Cloud Cover & a sponge dauber to add color to the edges, then flicked it with my Light Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends. I die cut the wonderful star from Peaceful Garden Glimmer paper, popped it on dimensionals & added it to the circle, centering it. For extra glam I die cut the diamond shape for the center of the star from Silver Foil Sheets & attached it with glue. I attached the circle in place on the card front with glue. For the sentiment… a stamp from Peace on Earth stamp set stamped in Misty Moonlight ink, die cut with a die from Ornamental Christmas Dies & added it to the card front with dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Garden DSP fun fold card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the Peaceful Garden DSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. Below is a list of the products to create this card & info to consider about becoming a demonstrator as part of my team 😀

Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peek Words of Beauty Bundle for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group

Posted on October 14, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Today’s hop challenge is all about “giving thanks” – and I am grateful for many people in my life. This card is for one of those folks. I’m using products from the November 2025 Online Exclusives – part of the Brushed with Beauty Suite. This bundle is called Words for Beauty.

This card uses what I’m going to call, the ‘backside’ of the DSP. The floral side is absolutely gorgeous and I wanted to use that, but it didn’t seem to fit with the words. The panel is adhered to a Mossy Meadow then added to the Very Vanilla card base with dimensionals. The ribbon is is Very Vanilla…. wrapped around & held in place in back with Tear n Tape. I tied a simple half know & held it in place with a glue dot.The large word ‘because’ actually has three dies. The backing is Crumb Cake, the second layer is Old Olive and the front is Very Vanilla. after adhering together I attached them with dimensionals. The sentiment banner is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on Basic White & die cut with one of the dies in the set. The embellishments are the Low Profile Dots in Old Olive – and I used five.

Stampin' Up! Words of Beauty card inside

The sentiment is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on Very Vanilla card stock, and comes from the Words of Beauty stamp set. It’s attached to Mossy Meadow card stock and added to the inside of the card. The 1/2 strip is the other side of the Brushed with Beauty DSP. You’ll see it used later this week 😀

Stampin' Up! Words of Beauty card & envelope

I left this photo extra large so you could see the three layers of the larger word. It just didn’t show much in the smaller size. For the envelope… more of the same ‘back side’ of the Brushed with Beauty DSP attached to the flap & trimmed to fit. the sentiment on the front is again from the Words of Beauty stamp set.

Because I’m a demonstrator I have the privilege of being able to order Online Exclusive early – to play with new product and promote them. So it’s a huge benefit to me and my customers & I get very excited with playing with new ‘stuff’. I’m saying all this because now is the perfect to join with me so you can play too.

Stampin’ Up! Gallery Blooms Frames

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

Good Monday! It’s going to be another gorgeous day here on the East coast – sunny & 71! I have two cards to share with you today, both with the same layout, just different colors. I used the stunning rose image in the Gallery Blooms bundle, the coordinating Damask Designs embossing folder and for sentiments, the Beautiful Motifs stamp set (part of a bundle). Both use Subtles 6×6 DSP in Petal Pink and Gray Granite card stock. Let’s look…

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms in Petal Pink card front

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms in Gray Granite card front

I stamped the roses in Memento black ink and colored each with Stampin’ Blends: Petal Pink, Old Olive & Lemon Lime Twist for the card on left and Gray Granite, Old Olive & Lemon Lime Twist for the card on right. I’m just curious, do you have a preference? I used the framing dies in the Gallery Blooms dies to die cut from Gray Granite, Subtles 6×6 DSP & Basic White the two portions of the framing: the center portion and the ‘frame’ of that. I pieced these together as you see and attached to a slightly larger panel – Petal Pink and Gray Granite. These were attached to the card base. Oh… and the card with the pink roses – I embossed a separate piece of Basic White and attached it to the card front before adhering the rest. The roses are added with dimensionals. On each is a bow – Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack in gray and Scalloped Ribbon in Petal Pink. I tied each around the stem holding them in polace with either liquid glue or a glue dot. The embellishments are Low Profile Dots in pink and Neutral Matte Dots in black. The sentiments are both from Beautiful Motifs stamp set, stamped on scraps of Basic White with Memento ink. Each was attached with dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms inside in pink

I stamped the small rose bouquet from Gallery Blooms in Memento ink on a Basic White panel & colored in Stampin’ Blends as before: Petal Pink or Gray Granite for the roses, Old Olive & Lemon Lime Twist on the leaves. Each was adhered to the appropriate card.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms in Petal Pink w/ envelope

This envelope has an added strip of Subtles 6×6 DSP to the flap & trimmed to fit. I used a one of the Basic Borders Dies to create to delicate stitching at the edge of the DSP & on the envelope. I stamped the front in Petal Pink using a stamp from Gallery Blooms stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Gallery Blooms in Gray Granite w/ envelope

On this envelope, a strip of the Subtles 6×6 DSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. A different image from Gallery Blooms stamp set was stamped in Petal Pink on the envelope front.

I am curious if you have a preference in the cards – Petal Pink or Gray Granite. Not certain for me…

Stampin’ Up! Amber Autumn Z Fold

Posted on October 5, 2025 by TL's Bright Spot

Howdy folks – it’s Sunday. Yesterday was gorgeous & I’m hoping today will be the same. I have a pretty fall card to share with you today – hope you like… it’s made with the fabulous Amber Autumn stamp set and Autumn Toile 12×12 DSP.

Stampin' Up! Amber Autumn Z fold card front

I love this stamped image. It’s peaceful, serene and all fall. I used Timid tiger for the card base, scored it in half then folded back one side. The DSP layers are Autumn Toile 12×12 DSP. This is kind of a Gray Granite. I stamped the image in Memento ink on a Basic White panel then colored with Stampin’ Blends: Lemon Lolly, Lemon Lime Twist, Cloud Cover, Crumb Cake, & Timid Tiger. I die cut this with the largest of the Stitched Shapes circle dies. I die cut another from Basic White while I was at it to use on the inside of the card. I attached the stamped die cut image with dimensionals to Gray Granite die cut with the Spotlight on Nature dies. It gives it a nice border. This was added to the folded back panel. I then stamped the sentiment in Tiimid Tiger on a Basic White strip, trimmed it at an angle and added a Timid Tiger strip behind it. It was added with mini dimensionals and a dab of glue. I attached a double bow from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack in gray with a glue dot. The embellishments are Cajon Craze & Gold Dots.

Stampin' Up! Amber Autumn Z fold card, open

I attached the remaining circle with adhesive, making certain it was lined up just right so it didn’t show when the card is closed. I know to whom this is being sent, so left it plain – no stamping – to write my message. It looks very plain, but when I add my personal note, it will be fine! If you so desired, you could stamp something here, then add a panel on the back of the card for your lengthy message. :O)

Stampin' Up! Amber Sutumn z fold card & envelope

For the envelope… more of the same Autumn Toile 12×12 DSP on the flap trimmed to fit. I forgot to take a photo of the envelope front 🥴, but it has a partial image of the pumpkins, colored the same as the card.

Card dimensions:

Card base: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 2 1/8 & 4 1/4. Burnish mountain, valley + scrap

DSP layers: 1 7/8 x 5 1/4 (2); 4 x 5 1/4; 2 1/4 x 6 (flap)

Gray Granite: 3 3/4 x 3 3/4

Basic White: 3 3/8 x 3 3/8 (2); + scrap for sentiment

All kits in the Kits Collection will range from 10–30% off during this three-day sale.

Stampin’ Up! Love & Courage for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

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

Welcome to Thursday & our fabulous hop! We have a theme challenge today called “Clean & Simple” and I confess… this was not easy for me. I made a card but it used a die & ribbon, but was a step ‘up’ so to speak. And actually I like this card better. 😀

Stampin' Up! Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Do you see what I did here? I created a cross with score lines. So, stamp first (Pretty In Pink was used here), turn the card over & with your scoring tool, score lines where you want them. And why flip the card over? I wanted the score lines to be raised on the front, not indented. Make sense? After scoring, I added the stamped piece to a larger layer, then attached those to the card front with dimensionals. Final touch – Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems. So so easy…

For the inside… another stamp in the Love & Courage stamp set is the single word HOPE – – it’s stamped in Pretty In Pink on a Basic White insert piece then added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Love & Courage card & envelope

For the envelope… a piece of Subtles 6×6 DSP in Petal Pink was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. The traditional cancer ribbon from Love & Courage stamp set was stamped in Pretty in Pink on the flap & on the envelope front.

This is the first card I mentioned that I made that didn’t seem to fit the ‘clean & simple’ challenge. The DSP in the background is 2025-2027 In Color 6×6 in Strawberry Slush and the ribbon & inking is also Strawberry Slush.

Time to hop around – see what others on the team have created… click the ‘next’ button or click on a name. Either way, check them all. 😀 Enjoy the hop!
