All three of today’s cards were created using Abigail Rose Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Apple Harvest stamp set. Using this same design, I created two other versions of this card with a Christmas theme that you can see here.
I started with a piece of Early Espresso cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I embossed a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock using the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the base of the card.
I cut two pieces of Abigail Rose Designer Series Paper and layered them onto two pieces of Early Espresso cardstock. I adhered the vertical one with Multipurpose Glue but added Stampin’ Dimensional to the back of the horizontal one before placing it on the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso ink and the stamp set, Apple Harvest. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems to the front and a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside.
For this next card, I used Smoky Slate and Basic White cardstock, the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and Iridescent Pearls.
For this last card, I used Early Espresso cardstock, the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and Elegant Faceted Gems.

Today I’m sharing a treat holder I made using the Stampin’ Up! Mini Pocket Envelope Dies. If you need little treat holders, these dies make it easy to create them really fast! Since school has started up again, my mind went to teacher treats. I was an elementary teacher for 22 years and it’s hard not to think about the beginning of a new school year. I have a Ghirardelli chocolate inside and what teacher wouldn’t enjoy one after school? Yes, please!!
I made my Pocket Envelope using Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper and the Mini Pocket Envelope die. After cutting it out, I folded along all the score lines and then added Mini Glue Dots along two of the edges and assembled the envelope. Really easy!
Next, I used the Apple Harvest Bundle to stamp the apple in Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Apple Blossoms Dies. Before cutting it out, I colored it using Real Red, Granny Apple Green and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. I added my chocolate to the envelope and then wrapped White Baker’s Twine around the envelope three times and tied it off in the center of the envelope. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the apple and placed it on the envelope.
The Apple Harvest Bundle includes the Apple Harvest stamp set and the Apple Blossoms Dies. This bundle is part of the Perfect Partners Promotion. The stamp set can be found in the Annual Catalog but the dies (and bundle) are only available until September 30 or while supplies last. To download the flyer for this promotion, click here (there are two pages).
I stamped the sentiment in Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Lovely You. I cut it out with the Playful Piggy Dies (another set of dies in the Perfect Partners promotion and only available until September 30th or while supplies last) and adhered it to the envelope.

The card I’m sharing today was made using the Apple Harvest Bundle which will be available beginning September 1st during the Perfect Partners Promotion! Six new dies will be introduced on September 1st that coordinate with sets in our Annual and Mini Catalogs. The dies can be purchased separately or in a bundle with the coordinating stamp set. BUT, these dies are only available during the month of September and while supplies last!
Click the image below for the Perfect Partners Promotion flyer or HERE (there are two pages).
My card was created using the Apple Harvest stamp set (you can find it in the Mini Catalog) and the Apple Blossoms Dies which will be available on September 1st. The Apple Blossoms Bundle (162526) includes both of these products and you’ll save 10% when you purchase any Stampin’ Up! bundle.
I started with a piece of Granny Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then I adhered two squares of In Color 2022-2024 Designer Series Paper (in Parakeet Party) to a piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the apples and leaves in Memento Ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Apple Harvest. The apples were colored using Real Red Stampin’ Blends (Light & Dark) and the leaves were colored with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (Light & Dark). The stems were colored with Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends (Light). I cut them out with the Apple Blossoms Dies #160255 (available on September 1st) and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink (using the Apple Harvest stamp set) towards the bottom of the rectangle. I adhered the apples to the rectangle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside to complete the card.
