Stampin’ Up! Patterned Tags Dies Christmas Card

Posted on by
2

Good Saturday! It’s humid again here in NJ, and warm. And I thought cool weather might be here to stay – silly me. I have a pretty card for you today made with Peaceful Gardens 3D embossing folder and a new item from the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog – the Patterned Tags Dies. I’m displaying the tag with pine boughs, a rather intricate die.

Stampin' Up! Patterned Tags Dies C'mas Card front

I started with a card base of Basic Beige and added a layer of Basic Beige run through the Peaceful Gardens 3D embossing folder. Next is an elegant front panel in layers: Basic Beige, Gold Foil and Season of Elegance Specialized DSP added to the front with dimensionals. Now, I could have stopped here and simply added a sentiment and embellishments. Instead, I added this fun tag die cut from Shaded Spruce and Summer Splash. After adhering those two die cuts together, I added the gorgeous ribbon from the Turte-Y- Awesome suite of products – Bordered Ribbon. To this tag I added the Basic White banner die cut with the stitched Shapes Dies on which I added the sentiment die cut from Gold Foil using the Christmas Words Collage Dies. And those pine bough die cuts were attached with dabs a liquid glue – came from the Patterned Tags die. This was attached to the card front with dimensionals.

On the inside of the card, i added more of the pine boughs with liquid glue and another of the sentiments die cut from Gold Foil using the Christmas Words Collage Dies – all to the Basic White panel.

For the envelope… another piece of the Season of Elegance Specialized DSP to the flap & trimmed to fit. On the front, another of the pine bough die cuts from the tag adhered in place.

The layout for this card was inspired by Susan Campfield, a Stampin’ Up demonstrator. Below are the dimensions for making this card.

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Greenery + Label Me Grateful Dies

Posted on by
2

It’s Labor Day! Do you have plans to labor – or will you use this as a day to gather w/ friends & family? I have a card today made with lots of Basic White and just a bit of color. I used watercolor paper to create the focal green branch and the stunning Christmas Greenery Dies. The leaves are die cut from simple Basic White, using the Label Me Grateful Dies. But I get ahead of myself – let’s look at the card.

Stampin' Up! Christmas Greenery + Label Me Grateful Dies card front

The card base is Thick Basic White with two layers of regular weight Basic White added to create depth. Using the Label Me Grateful Dies, I die cut two same size labels, cut one in half and adhered it behind the other. This was attached, centered on the card front, with dimensionals. I die cut the branch of leaves in white and attached it with liquid glue. The watercolor pine bough is attached with dimensionals. I added a simple double Linen Thread bow with a glue dot – and that was it!

To create color on the watercolor paper…. I wet the entire piece with water, squeezed each ink pad container to get some ink in the lid, added a bit of water to that and simply added it to the watercolor paper. I used three colors – Granny Apple Green, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow. Once dry I die cut two of the pine boughs and some other things too. Bur for our purposes today – it’s just the pine bough that’s important. Here’s the watercolor paper after die cutting.

Stampin' Up! Christmas Greenery Dies and watercolor paper

for the inside of the card…I stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink using the Traditional Labels stamp set and added a 1/2 x 4 strip of Old Olive from Floral Delight DSP. I added the Basic White panel to the inside of the card and bam – all done.

Stampin' Up! Traditional Labels sentiment inside card

For the envelope, some of the same Floral Delight DSP in Old Olive for the flap, trimmed to fit.

Stampin’ Up! NEW Gathering Moments

Posted on by
4

Good Friday – my goodness August is flittering away – Monday is LABOR DAY! Today’s card is all about fall and it uses a September Release ONLINE EXCLUSIVE. The bundle is Gathering Moments.

Stampin' Up! Gathering Moments bundle
Stampin' Up! Gathering Moments card front

The card has a Basic Beige front from which I die cut the large leaf with Gathering Moments Dies. I wanted to use the Timeless Plaid 6×6 DSP behind the die cut but on an angle. This meant an odd shape for cutting the DSP and it needed to be slightly smaller than the Basic Beige card front. Once I cut the DSP I added it to an Old Olive panel and that to the card base of Cajun Craze.

Stampin' Up! Old Olive w/ Timeless Plaid 6x6 DSP
Stasmpin' Up! Gathering Moments die cut w/ dimensionals on back

I put dimensionals all over the back of the die cut panel and adhered it to the the card. I stamped the sentiment in Cajun Craze ink using the Gathering Moments stamp set and die cut the basic White with Textured Notes Dies. I cut a piece of Old Olive for a backing, adhered the two together and added them directly to the card front. I tied a double bow with Natural Tones Linen Thread then added three Cajun Craze and Gold Dots.

Stampin' Up! Gathering Moments inside card

For the inside… I used the die cut that came out of the front die cut to stamp the sentiment from Gathering Moments in Cajun Craze ink. I added this to a Basic White panel then both to Old Olive then to the inside of the card base..

Stampin' Up! Gathering moments card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the Timeless Plaid 6×6 DSP on the flap trimmed to fit, then a single leaf stamped on the front: Gathering Moments stamp set in Old Olive ink. Totally fall – good for a masculine card too!

Stampin’ Up! Brighten Your Day Kit

Posted on by
2

Our Internet is quite spotty & intermittent today so not sure if this will publish appropriately. I’ve been trying all morning.

This is such a beautiful kit and I had promised to share photos of my completed cards a few days ago. I had a difficult reaction to a vaccine that really set me back for two straight days. Thanks goodness that is behind me!

Each card in this kit has a laser-cut delicate design – so three designs for nine cards, make sense? I made one each of the ‘prescribed’ card designs and here they are

Stampin' Up! Brighten Ypour Day Kit original
Stampin' Up! Brighten Your Day, original in Fresh Freesia

These first three cards are the original ‘plan’ of the kit and they show Fresh Freesia, Basic Beige and Balmy Blue. These next two images are of the birds with a card base of Balmy Blue on the left and Lost Lagoon on the right, both using what had been the original base as part of a layer for the card front.

With the remaining cards bases, I trimmed each down to 41/8 x 5 3/8, thereby making a card front panel and an inside panel with each supplied card base. Here are my completed cards – nothing fancy or over the top done, just incorporated an additional card base.

Below left has a card base of Balmy Blue with the original card base as a layer for the laser-cut image. Below right uses Lost Lagoon as the card base

These two cards show card bases in Highland Heather for the left card and Fresh freesia for the right card, again using the original card base as a front layer.

I took a LOT more pictures but they just didn’t turn out that well so I have not included them – bummer!

OK – so this is one of the fabulous kits Stampin’ Up! is offering. There is always something going on… remember there are changes coming to the packaging for both photopolymer stamps and dies. Also, rubber stamps are being discontinued. Both of these will take effect at the end of each catalog. What that means is at the end of both the Sep-Dec 2025 catalog and the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog, no more rubber stamps. For full disclosure, check this post. It will give you measurements of the new packaging and you’ll see a glimpse of a new bundle available in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES for November. There is also a video you can access.

Other items of interest… the In Color Sale ends Aug 31 and here it is the 22nd. Click the link in the image below to shop those products!

If you do not have a demonstrator and need the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog – please give me a shout-out. I’m here to help you have fun in this crafting world! And if you see LOTS of items on your wish list, consider joining my team, become apart of the Stampin’ Up! party, craft with others, learn new techniques, receive at least 20% off each order, attend a convention or two, or three 😀, get catalogs early to play with new products, JOIN HERE with me.

Stampin’ Up! Perfectly Pears plus Branching Out Dies

Posted on by
6

Good Sunday morning! I’ve a sweet Perfectly Pears card for you today and I paired it with a new die set from the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog called Branching Out Dies. It has a stamp set as well, but I’m not using that today.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears card front

This new die is shown here in the Basic Beige – as a background for the pears. The leaves of thew pears cover the top of the die cut, but it’s the same as the bottom. There are at least 6 of these layering dies in the set, plus some other fun dies as well. It’s wonderful. How to make this card…

The card base is Mossy Meadow with a layer of Darling Duckling then a layer of Painterly Pears DSP. Next I die cut the Basic Beige with the Branching Out dies and added it. With another piece of the Painterly Pears DSP and the Perfectly Pears Dies, I die cut the two pears and the stem/ leaves. Using another die in the Perfectly Pears Dies and Lemon Lime Twist, I die cut the open weave image. I adhered the stem/ leaves to each pear, then attached them to the card front: the darker pear is adhered directly and the lighter pear is on dimensionals. I slipped the open weave die cut under the pears and attached with dabs of liquid glue. The leaves of the darker pear do have dimensionals. Once everything was innplace, I stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink. It comes from the Perfectly Pears stamp set. Final touch – three Low Profile Sparkle Dots in Old Olive and a double Linen Thread bow added with a glue dot.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears inside card

For the inside…on a panel of Basic White… the pear comes from the Perfectly Pears stamp set… inked first in Darling Duckling then Lemon Lime Twist added with a sponge dauber and stamped on the panel. The stem’ leaves are also from this stamp set and are inked with Old Olive and Early Espresso Markers. This was attached to aDarling Duckling panel then added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pearas card & envelope

For the envelope… The same Painterly Pears DSP was added to the flap & trimmed to fit. The pear was stamped using the same method as above – using the Perfectly Pears stamps, Darling Duckling and Lemon Lime Twist inks for the pear and Old Olive and Early Espresso markers for the stem’ leaves. This is such a fabulous suite of products!

Stampin’ Up! Diagonal DSP Just a Note

Posted on by
4

Good morning Friends… NJ has had a couple of days respite from the heat – a drop of 30 degrees to the 70’s! These are welcome temperatures! Today’s card is made with the new In Colors Secret Sea and Cloud Cover – and could be duplicated using all the new In Colors.

Stampin' Up! 2025-2027 DSP Diagonal card front

I began with the 2025-2027 In Color 6×6 DSP cut 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 and cut it on the diagonal, then turned the pieces 90 degrees holding them together, to cut on the other diagonal. (NOTE: This works with DSP that has a reverse side that is coordinating in color/ pattern, not conflicting. So choose carefully 😀) After cutting the DSP, decide which sections should be primary showing the pattern desired. Here I chose the left and right panels to be dominant and simply turned the other two panels to the reverse side. These were adhered to Basic White cut 4 x 5 1/4, dimensionals added to the back and attached to a Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. On the front I added a length of 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon with Stampin’ Seal. Using the Mixed Labels Dies, I cut two labels, the larger in Secret Sea, the smaller in Basic White. I stamped the sentiment using the Mixed Labels stamp set in Secret Sea ink. I layered the two together with adhesive, popped dimensionals across the back on top & bottom and adhered it over the ribbon. The final touch was adding several 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls in Cloud Cover.

Stampin' Up! DSP Diagonal card inside

For the inside… simple… a 1/2 x 4 strip of the same 25-27 In Color DSP as used on the card front, and attached to the side of a Basic White 4 x 5 1/4 panel

Stampin' Up! DSP Diagonal card & envelope

For the envelope, more of the 25-27 In Color DSP on the flap trimmed to fit. On the front, using Cloud Cover ink and an image in the Mixed Labels stamp set, I stamped twice on the lower left corner. This gives a completed look and could even be used as a masculine card, despite the flowers.

See below for ways to purchase the products to make this card.

Stampin’ Up! Perfectly Pear Fun fold

Posted on by
3

Whew – we are having a m-a-j-o-r heat wave here in NJ, USA. Thank goodness for air conditioning, which we did NOT have when I was growing up in Indiana. But then, the Internet nor cell phones were a thing then either. Sigh. I digress… my card today uses the stunning Painterly Pears 12×12 DSP (available Jul 1 in my online store) and a few other products. Let’s take a look –

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears fun fold card front

That fun hexagon uses the Meant to Bee Dies.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears fun fold card inside

Basic directions to make this fun fold.

  • Card base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 then the front section folded back on itself in half. NOTE: while you could score at 2 1/8 and 4 1/4, I prefer more precise edges (sometimes it’s off a smidge), and that’s why I simply fold it back on itself. Card base is Secret Sea.
  • Layered panels – card stock: 2 x 5 3/8 (cut 2) 4 1/8 x 5 3/8. I used Misty Moonlight.
  • DSP layers – 1 7/8 x 5 1/4 (cut 2 in coordinating patterns), 2 1/4 x 5 1/4
  • Basic White layer – 2 1/4 x 5 1/4

For the sentiment panel, using the Meant to Be Dies, I die cut three hexagons: Secret Sea, Misty Moonlight and Painterly Pears DSP. What’s fun about these dies is they die cut not only the hexagon, but a fun edge and it’s that edge that I used for the Misty Moonlight piece. The pear is stamped in Lemon Lime Twist ink and the leaves in Old Olive – both using the Perfectly Pears stamp set. I die cut them with the Perfectly Pears Dies, attached dimentionals to the pear and added it to the hexagon, then added the stem /leaves with a bit of liquid glue and a dimensional behind the right leaf. The sweet ‘hello’ comes from the Perfectly Pears stamp set and it is stampedin Mossy Meadow ink and die cut with a die from the Perfectly Pears Dies. It was added with dimensionals behind on the right & a dab of glue on the left. I added three Low Profile Dots from the Painterly Pears Suite Collection, then attached the hexagon just to the left front panel.

Stampin' Up! Perfectly Pears fun fold card & envelope

For the envelope, more Painterly Pears 12×12 DSP on the flap & trimmed to fit. The pear is again stamped in Lemon Lime Twist ink and the leaf/stemn in Old Olive ink using appropriate stamps in the Perfectly Pears stamp set. What a friendly, fun looking card and perfect for several occasions. I love the versatility.

Below is a list of products that can be purchased now. Remember the Painterly Pears Suite Collection will be available Jul 1!

Thanks for stopping by. May you have a beautiful day!
