by Tracy | Dec 5, 2024 | Christmas Card
Today’s card was made using many products on the Last Chance List! I used the Reindeer Fun stamp set (on the Last Chance List and discounted), A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper (on the Last Chance List and discounted), Gold Dipped Cards & Envelopes (on the Last Chance List and discounted) and Greetings of the Season Dies. Products on the Last Chance List are while supplies last!


I started by using one of the card bases in the Gold Dipped Cards & Envelopes pack. Then, I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to the back of the candy canes & bow (this is a die cut in A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper) and then adhered it to the front of the card.



I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Reindeer Fun stamp set and poured gold embossing powder over the sentiment and heated it up using my Heat Tool. Then, I cut it out with the Greetings of the Season Dies. I didn’t want the hole to be in the sentiment when I cut it out. So, I did one end of the die and then flipped it over and did the other side. You have to play around with it and get it in the same place (I have a picture underneath the card). I hope that makes sense. I added regular Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment, but if I had to do it over again, I would have used the Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. This was a quick and easy card to make!




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. All sale prices are while supplies last!

I find it helpful to go up to the top of Last Chance Products Category and sort the products from A-Z. Then, they are in alphabetical order.
- The Last Chance Products category will include retiring products from the September -December 2024 Mini Catalog and online releases, excluding Paper Pumpkin. When the Annual Catalog retires, you will find the retiring products in the Last Chance Products category of the online store (this won’t happen until the beginning of April).
- There will be a Last Chance Products category in the Online Store.
- Last Chance Products in this category are available while supplies last and will be discontinued when they sell out. Items will be automatically removed from the category and the online store when they are discontinued.
- Discounts vary and are subject to change.
- The Last Chance Products category will be updated every other month (more retiring products will be added). Updates to this category will happen in February, April, June, August, October, and December.
- Stampin’ Up! may add individual items from bundles or suite collections to the Last Chance Products category. If one or more products from the suite collection or bundle are in the Last Chance Products category, then the bundle and suite collection will also appear in this category. The bundle or suite will not be orderable if one or more of the items in the bundle or suite collection sell out. Our standard 10% bundle discounts will be available if one or more of the items move to the Last Chance Product category; however, the item in the Last Chance Products category may have a deeper discount.
- There may be times Stampin’ Up! will need to discontinue certain products outside of this process. This can happen due to factors outside our control, such as overseas shipping issues, disruptions to the supply chain for raw materials, or changes to our suppliers. If a product is discontinued outside the process, it won’t be available in our Last Chance Products category.
- There will no longer be a Clearance Rack, it will be now known as the Last Chance Products page.

Before sharing my card with you I want to let you know that my Annual Card Sampler PDF Sale starts today and runs through Monday, December 2, 2024! All of my Card Sampler PDFs are $5.95. See the details below.

Now on to my card for today! I used Take a Bow Designer Series Paper, A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper, Decorative Trees stamp set, Deckled Rectangles Dies and the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.



I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut a piece of Take A Bow Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the front of the card. Next, I cut another piece of Real Red cardstock and a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder. After I embossed the Basic White cardstock I adhered it to the front of the Real Red cardstock. I then used Multipurpose Glue to attach the stockings (the stockings are included in the A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper as a cut out) to the embossed Basic White cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.


I embossed the sentiment using a Versamark pad, silver embossing powder and the Decorative Trees stamp set. Then, I cut it out using the Deckled Rectangles Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.


To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper, Christmas Friends stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies, Festive 12″ x 12″ Glimmer Paper and the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.


I started with a piece of Garden Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.


Did you know Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper comes with cut outs? My wreath is a cut out! After I punched the wreath out, I adhered it to the front of the card. I used our Festive Glimmer Paper to cut a banner using the Stylish Shapes Dies.


I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Garden Green ink and the stamp set, Christmas Friends. Then, I cut it out using the smaller banner in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the Glimmer Paper and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Glimmer Paper and adhered it to the wreath.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

Before sharing my card with you, because it’s my birthday today, I’m going to offer Double Bradley Points for today only, November 21st! You can earn free products when you earn 10 Bradley Points! You earn Bradley Points with every $50 purchase!
The card I’m sharing today was made using Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper, the Decorative Trees stamp set and Stylish Shapes Dies. I’ve created a pocket where you can insert a gift card and note or just a note.


I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. I scored it in two places (you can see the measurements I used below the Supply List) and then used my bone folder to burnish the score lines. On the smaller end (you can see the picture below), I added a strong adhesive, such as Tear & Tape, to both ends and folded up to create the pocket.



I added A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper to the top portion on the front and then shut the card so I could apply the bottom part. I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to put in the pocket and adhered a strip of A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper. I will give you the measurements of the exact size but I like to cut it a bit longer than I need and then trim it off.



I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Decorative Trees stamp set. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut the next larger circle out of Real Red cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to the Real Red circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, on only the upper part, and then adhered it to the upper flap.

Important Information:

Here’s my card for today! I used A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper, Greetings of the Season stamp set, Deckled Rectangles Dies, Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and some heat embossing!


I started with Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper to the front of my card. I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I added the embossed cardstock to a piece of Real Red cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.


Then, I heat embossed my sentiment using the stamp set, Greetings of the Season. If you have never tried heat embossing, I have directions down below. You’ll love the results! I used Gold Embossing Powder because there are flecks of gold in the Christmas tree. I then cut the sentiment out using the Deckled Rectangles Dies.



I punched out the tree (this set comes with three pages of die cuts that you just punch out – how easy is that!), and added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back. Then, I figured out where I wanted to put the tree and sentiment. I adhered the sentiment to the front and adhered the tree beside it.



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!
