Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Lights Aglow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the Brightest Glow Bundle which includes the Brightest Glow stamp set and the Labels Aglow Dies. I also used the Twinkling Lights Dies.
I started with a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut a piece of Lights Aglow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and added it to the front of the card. There are so many beautiful designs in this package of paper!! Next, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched Rectangle Dies and then ran it through one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used a different design of Lights Aglow Designer Series Paper to cut a tree using the Twinkling Lights Dies and adhered it to the embossed Basic White cardstock.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Evening Evergreen ink using the stamp set, Brightest Glow and cut it out using the Labels Aglow Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the upper half of the sentiment and adhered it to the left bottom corner of the rectangle. Next, I added nine Festive Pearls in Soft Succulent, all over the tree. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Festive Pearls are currently out of stock but are estimated to be back in stock the week of November 21st.

Today’s card features the Brightest Glow Bundle which includes the Brightest Glow stamp set and the Labels Aglow Dies. I also used Lights Aglow Designer Series Paper and the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder before adding it to the card front. Normally I cut this piece of Basic White down a little bit but I cut it to cover the entire front (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I cut a piece of Real Red cardstock and layered it with a piece of Lights Aglow Designer Series Paper. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
Next, I cut a piece of Real Red cardstock and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Labels Aglow Dies. Then I cut a smaller piece of Gold Foil and adhered it to the back of the Real Red cardstock so the pretty gold foil would show through the holes. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I embossed the sentiment in gold onto Basic White cardstock using Versamark ink and the Brightest Glow stamp set (I have directions for heat embossing below). I cut it out using the Labels Aglow Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Festive Pearls to the front of the card. The Festive Pearls are currently out of stock but are estimated to be back in stock the week of November 21st.
How To Heat Emboss
Prepare your cardstock by rubbing the Embossing Buddy (an anti-static pouch that can be found in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit) over the surface of the paper as it helps keep away stray particles of embossing powder. Stamp your sentiment or image using a Versamark pad. This is very sticky ink and your embossing powder will stick right to it. Sprinkle embossing powder over the stamped image and then shake off any excess. Before applying heat to your paper, heat the Heat Tool first so your paper won’t warp (about 10 seconds). Direct the heat over your image and watch as your image becomes shiny and beautiful!

Today’s card features the Kindest Gnomes Bundle which includes the Kindest Gnomes stamp set and the Gnomes Dies. I also used Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper and one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders.
I started with a piece of Pacific Point cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Basic White cardstock and Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper. I then ran a piece of Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and then adhered it to the middle of my card.
One of the sheets in Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper is just gnomes, so I used the Gnomes Dies to cut one of them out and set him aside.. I stamped the sentiment in Pacific Point using the Kindest Gnomes stamp set and then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Using these same dies, I also cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock.
I tucked the sentiment behind the gnome using several Mini Glue Dots (I forgot to add these into the Supply List) and then adhered the gnome to the stitched circle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and one at the very end of the sentiment that hangs off, and then adhered it to the embossed part of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Fine Sparkle Adhesive-Backed Gems and I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Today’s card features the Framed Florets Bundle, which includes the Framed Florets stamp set and the Framed Florets Dies. I also used the Framed & Festive stamp set (available while supplies last) and Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper (also available while supplies last).
I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock for the base of my card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I ran a piece of Basic White cardstock through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the front of the card. Next, I cut a piece of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper and used my Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends to color the berries on the paper. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the flowers from the Framed Florets stamp set onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink. I used Stampin’ Blends to color my image and it’s important that Memento Ink is used so that the black ink doesn’t bleed. I used Light & Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends, Light and Dark Soft Succulent and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. Then, I set the flowers aside.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Evening Evergreen ink and the stamp set, Framed & Festive. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added adhesive to the lower section of the flowers to adhere them to the square and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the square and adhered it to the card front.
To complete my card, I added three Gold Adhesive Backed Swirls (also available while supplies last) to the front of the card.
