Can you believe it’s Friday already??? Today’s FREE tutorial features Ever Eden 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper . This paper will be available beginning November 2, 2021 and is part of an early release collection. This collection will be in the January – June Mini Catalog but Stampin’ Up! is releasing it early! This early release collection includes the Eden’s Garden Cling stamp set, Eden Dies, Ever Eden 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper, Ever Eden 12″ x 12″ Cotton Paper, and Garden Gems.
The following products will only be available while supplies last once they’re released on November 2nd:
-
- Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper
- Ever Eden Cotton Paper
- Garden Gems
Click here for the flyer of the Eden’s Garden collection!

Here’s another version of the card using another design in the Ever Eden Designer Series Paper pack.

One of the products I used on both cards is the Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder. You cannot purchase this embossing folder separately. I was a bit confused when I saw it in the catalog (and online) so I want to clear up any confusion. When you purchase the Bloom Dies (page 157 in the Annual Catalog), you will receive 9 dies and the Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder. That being said, when you search for Bloom Dies on the website, Bloom Dies does not come up in your search but instead you’ll be directed to Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder. So confusing but the bottom line is that you can’t order it separately. Here’s how you can get this embossing folder:
Bloom Dies #155989 – includes dies and embossing folder On the Stampin’ Up! website, it will be listed as Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder but this price includes the folder and dies
Art in Bloom Bundle #158368 – includes photopolymer Art in Bloom stamp set, Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder and 9 Dies.
You can access your free tutorial below the supply list.

by Tracy | Oct 21, 2021 | Card Sampler, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
Today I’m sharing a card that was recently in my Christmas to Remember Card Sampler. It features Stampin’ Up! Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper, Wonderful Snowflakes, Stitched Rectangle Dies and the stamp set, Christmas to Remember.

I started with a piece of Early Espresso cardstock and added a layer of Basic White cardstock. Then I embossed a piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of the card. Using the Stitched Rectangles Dies, I cut three pieces of Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card.



I used two snowflakes and placed a Stampin’ Dimensional on the back of each one and then placed them on top of the rectangles. Using the Seasonal Labels Dies, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment using Evening Evergreen ink and the stamp set Christmas to Remember. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the front of the card.



To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems to the front and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

I purchased the Starter Kit twelve years ago just for the discount. I had absolutely no intention of doing anything else except buy discounted products for myself. I still love Stampin’ Up! products and have used my discount to the fullest! I think the biggest impact for me has been that I now feel like I’m a creative person. I never felt like that before. Stampin’ Up! products make it so easy to create pretty cards and projects. I’ve never regretted my decision to purchase the Starter Kit and join Stampin’ Up!
