Today’s card features Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper and the Poinsettia Dies.

I started with a base of Garden Green cardstock and then added a piece of Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper on the lower half of the base.

My Whisper White cardstock was cut out using the Rectangle Stitched Dies and the sentiment was stamped using Garden Green ink and the stamp set, Wrapped In Christmas. I popped up the panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The Poinsettia and leaves were so easy to create using the Poinsettia Dies. The dies I used not only cut out the shapes but embossed them too! I added one of our Beaded Pearls to the center.


The end of the Stampin’ Up! year is coming to a close and I’m very close to achieving one of my goals so I thought I’d have a giveaway! For every $50 purchase you make at my Stampin’ Up! online store, you’ll earn a chance to win the Poinsettia Petals Bundle (plus you’ll receive an embellishment tucked into your thank you package). If you leave a comment on today’s post, you’ll receive another entry! This offer ends on September 30th at noon Pacific Time. Later in the day on the 30th, I’ll announce a winner, here on my blog!

Today’s card features the Snowflake Wishes Bundle which includes the stamp set Snowflake Wishes and So Many Snowflakes Dies.


I used one of my favorites, the beautiful Feels Like Frost 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper on my card. This double-sided paper features foil designs on one side and photographic images on the other. It debuted last year in the Holiday Catalog and was brought back. I couldn’t be happier!

Feels Like Frost pairs beautifully with our Silver Foil paper. I used it to layer the Designer Series Paper as well as the embossed Whisper White cardstock (I used the Winter Snow Embossing Folder). The snowflake was also cut out with Silver Foil but before running it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut the foil to the size I wanted and then adhered it to one of our Foam Adhesive Sheets that I cut down to the same size.


I used the stamp set Snowflake Wishes for the sentiment and stamped it with Versamark ink (it’s a very sticky ink). Then I sprinkled Silver Embossing Powder over it and heated it with my Heat Tool. Heat Embossing is so easy and it always adds elegance to a card!

You can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Several days ago I shared a box I made for a pack of gum and today I have three more boxes. Two of the boxes are decorated with Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper and the other one with one of our 3D Embossing Folders. If you’d like to watch the video showing how to make the box from last week, click here. To see the post for the Halloween box from last week along with the measurements I used, click here.



All three boxes were tied up with the GORGEOUS 1-1/2″ Metallic Mesh Ribbon in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. It’s part of the Magic In This Night Suite (Halloween products) but I think it can be used for any occasion! It’s very fancy looking!

The first box was made using Basic Black cardstock and to decorate it, I used the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder with Gorgeous Grape cardstock. The spider was cut out using our Black Glitter Paper and the Little Treat Box Dies. The sentiment was stamped in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Banner Year, and was cut out using the Stitched Shapes Dies (I also used this stamp set and dies for the second box).

I used Basic Black cardstock to make the second box and Pretty Peacock cardstock for the third one. Both have a piece of Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper on the top.
These boxes are really easy to make and while I made them to fit a pack of gum, any small treat would fit inside!
