by Tracy | Sep 16, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Today’s fun fold card features Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper and the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.
I started with a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock and then added a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock that was embossed using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I adhered a folded piece of Mint Macaron cardstock onto the front of the card and added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside.
I added another piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the front before adding the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper. This paper is so pretty in person but I found it difficult to capture it’s beauty in my photographs.
Using the Layering Ovals Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut a scalloped oval using our Copper Foil Sheets. The sentiment, also cut out with the Layering Ovals Dies, was stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock using Mint Macaron ink and the stamp set, Borders Abound (I love the fonts used for the sentiments in this set). Before adding it to the card front, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back. Super easy to make!

Today’s card features the stamp set Life Is Beautiful and Plaid Tidings 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. This stamp set was one of my first purchases when the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog came out. Not only do I love the tree and the ability to show all the seasons but the font used on the sentiments sealed the deal!
I started with a base of Cajun Craze cardstock and then added a layer of Plaid Tidings 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (all the measurements I used can be found below the Supply List). Next, I cut a rectangle out of Whisper White cardstock using the Rectangle Stitched Dies (I used the second largest die). I knew where I wanted my sentiment to be so I stamped it in Cajun Craze ink before I stamped the tree.
I stamped the tree trunk in Crumb Cake ink and then stamped the leaves in Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry (in that order, from darkest to lightest). To add some sparkle, I added three Pumpkin Pie rhinestones from our Holiday Rhinestones. It was a pretty easy and quick card to make!

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! In Good Taste Designer Series Paper and the Hippo & Friends Dies.
I used the same measurements for today’s card as I did for the card I posted yesterday. The only difference is that I changed the direction of the center piece. If you missed yesterday’s card, you can see it here.
The base of the card is Night of Navy cardstock and then I added a piece of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. The next layer is another piece of Night of Navy cardstock layered with a piece of Whisper White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using one of the Wrapped in Texture embossing folders. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back before adhering it to the card front.
The sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy ink onto Whisper White cardstock using the stamp set, Forever Fern and was cut out using the Hippo & Friends Dies. I love that this set has dies that layer together so that I could add a Night of Navy layer underneath the sentiment.
The finishing touch was adding three Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestones to the embossed Whisper White cardstock. If you’d like to make today’s card, you’ll find all the measurements I used below the Supply List.
