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.
Supply List
Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s card. If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store.
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!

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.

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.

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 embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered one to each panel on the front of the card.

From the North Pole Paper Pumpkin Kit
This month’s kit contains enough elements to create 12 tags—4 each of 3 designs. This all-inclusive kit includes printed die-cut paper pieces, twine, adhesive, and more!
Includes a Cherry Cobbler Classic Stampin’ Spot!
You’ll love decorating your gift tags with snowflake and banner die-cut pieces on our Mint Macaron glitter specialty paper (a Paper Pumpkin exclusive).
Create festive gift tags for all your packaging needs this holiday season with classic Christmas colors and designs.
Today’s card features the Kindest Gnomes Bundle which includes the Kindest Gnomes stamp set and the Gnomes Dies. This was not a bundle I immediately purchased because I’m not really a “gnomes person”. But about a month ago my sister made the cutest gnomes to sell at a craft fair next month and after seeing her cute creations, I was hooked. Plus, I’ve seen so many cute gnome cards from fellow demonstrators. I’m hooked and had fun creating my first gnome card!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper. Then I used that same design to cut a hat for my gnome using the Gnomes Dies.
I used the Gnomes Dies to cut the beard out of Basic White cardstock, Petal Pink for the nose and Pacific Point for the feet. I adhered all those piece together, along with the hat and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered my gnome to the front of the card.
I heat embossed the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Silver Embossing Powder and then cut the sentiment out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered it below the gnome and tucked it under his feet. To complete my card, I added three Festive Pearls below the sentiment and added two more on the embossed rectangle (unfortunately the Festive Pearls are not available at the moment but should 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!

Fitting Florets Collection Coming November 1, 2022
Click here for the Fitting Florets Collection flyer
Click here for more information about the Starter Kit!
The Starter Kit Special (an extra $30 in free product) is only available until October 31st!
Today’s card is a fun fold using Boughs of Holly 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and a new stamp set, Framed & Festive (#160888), that will debut on November 1, 2022. This stamp set will be available while supplies last. To see the flyer that includes this stamp set and the other products that will also be available November 1st, click HERE.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and scored it in two places to make the card look like a book (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Between the two folds I used Tear & Tape which is a very strong adhesive and you can see where I placed it in the picture below.
After creating the fold, I cut two pieces of Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card. I wrapped a piece of Metallic Mesh Ribbon around the left side of the card and tied a knot. If you haven’t seen this ribbon in person, it’s gorgeous!!
I heat embossed the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Silver Embossing Powder and a Versamark pad. If you’ve never heat embossed before, I have directions below. I find that heat embossing a sentiment makes the card extra fancy.
I cut the sentiment out using the Layering Circles Dies. Using the Stylish Shapes Dies, I cut a larger circle out of Silver Foil. I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Use the host code FWZ3BKN9 when placing your order at my Stampin’ Up! online store and you’ll receive my September – October PDF Tutorial with directions to make a featured card and fourteen more ideas using the same layout but with a variety of different colors of cardstock, embossing folders and Designer Series Paper.
All orders using the host code will receive the ten page PDF Tutorial and a thank you card.
If your order is $50 or more (before tax/shipping), you’ll also receive:
At least six card kits* mailed to you via snail mail
At least one Bradley Point (earn points and redeem them for free product)
*A card kit includes all the cardstock, Designer Series Paper and embellishments you’ll need to complete a card. I’ve cut, scored, die cut and embossed all the pieces for you! You’ll just need to supply your own stamp set, ink and adhesive. You can use the stamp set I used to create the cards (Soft Seedlings) or use what you already own.
$50.00 – $99.99 = 6 card kits
$100 – $149.99 = 7 card kits
$150 or more = 8 card kits
If your order is $150 or more, do NOT use the host code so you can receive Stampin’ Rewards directly from Stampin’ Up! You will automatically receive 8 card kits from me.
You can use this host code multiple times. There are fifteen different card kits and I keep track of which card kits I’ve sent to you. Each time you’ll receive different kits unless you’ve earned all fifteen and then you’ll start to receive multiples. It’s a great way to have cards on hand to mail because who doesn’t love receiving happy mail!
