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 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.

by Tracy | Sep 3, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Layering Ovals Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Today’s card features the Beautiful Autumn stamp set and Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock for the base of my card. I then added a piece of Whisper White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I normally make this layer a little bit smaller than the card base but this time I made it the same size as the base.
I added a piece of Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper to a piece of Basic Black cardstock (this Designer Series Paper can be found in the Mini Catalog). The sentiment was stamped with Memento Ink onto Whisper White cardstock using the stamp set, Beautiful Autumn and was cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies. The scalloped oval was also cut out with these dies and I used our Black Glitter Paper for a little bit of sparkle.
The Black Glitter Paper is unlike the Glimmer Paper Stampin’ Up! used to carry. It’s thinner which makes it easier to use and the glitter doesn’t come off on your hands.
If you’d like to make today’s card, below you’ll find a supply list of the products I used as well as the measurements.

by Tracy | Sep 1, 2020 | Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
It’s here! It’s here! The Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is now available!!
You can now purchase this beautiful new machine that will cut images and emboss your paper. It comes with a Base Plate, a Die Plate, 2 Cutting Plates and a Specialty Plate. You’ll just need to supply dies and embossing folders to take your crafting to a whole new level!
Click here to purchase the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine
Also available for purchase starting today is the Magnetic Cutting Plate, a thin, fully magnetic sheet with a self-healing cutting surface that will hold dies securely in place.
I’ve had my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine for a month (demonstrators were able to purchase it early) and I love this new machine. One of the features I really like is that the cutting platform folds up and that makes it really easy to carry. If I want to craft in the family room with my husband, I can easily transport it from room to room.
When I say a die-cutting machine will change your crafting life, I am very serious! Embossing a plain sheet of cardstock is like magic and it completely changes the look of a card. You also have the ability to cut images out of cardstock or cut out images you’ve stamped. I’d say it’s the most loved tool in my craft room!
To thank you for purchasing the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine at my Stampin’ Up! Online Store, you’ll receive:
- A Free PDF that will serve as a reference to understanding what’s in the box and the different sandwiches you’ll need as well as some tips and tricks.
