Stampin’ Up! Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper

Today’s card was created using Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper, Christmas Classics stamp set, Snowflake 3D Embossing Folder and Stylish Shapes Dies

 

 

 

I started with a base of Shaded Spruce cardstock. Then I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder using my Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered this piece to the front of the card and adhered a piece of plain Basic White to the inside (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). 

 

 

 

I cut two pieces of Real Red cardstock and two pieces of Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper and adhered the DSP to the cardstock. I adhered the long, skinny piece to the front of the card. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the square piece and then adhered it to the front, 

 

 

 

I stamped the sentiment using the stamp set, Christmas Classics, in Shaded Spruce ink and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added three Festive Pearls in silver.

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle

The new Mini Catalog goes live tomorrow (YAY!!!) but today I have another sneak peek of the Autumn Leaves Bundle #162186, which includes the Autumn Leaves stamp set and Autumn Leaves Dies. Two other new products I used were the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder #162189 and All About Autumn Designer Series Paper #162178.

 

 

 

I started with a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock for the base of my card. Then I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder (available September 6th). I added a piece of All About Autumn Designer Series Paper (available September 6th) to the embossed cardstock and then adhered the entire piece to the front of the card. 

 

 

I used the Autumn Leaves Dies (available September 6th) to cut four leaves out of Cajun Craze cardstock, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. I stamped the sentiment onto Very Vanilla cardstock in Cajun Craze ink using the Autumn Leaves stamp set (available September 6th) and cut it out with the Autumn Leaves Dies (available September 6th).  I adhered three of the leaves to the sentiment and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I added adhesive to the remaining leaf and then tucked it behind the other leaves. 

 

 

To complete my card, I added three Festive Pearls in gold to the front of the card and added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside.

Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Woodland Embossing Folder

Today I have two Christmas cards to share with you that were made using the same design.  One was made using Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper and the other was made with Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper. Both cards were made using the Brightest Glow Bundle which includes the Brightest Glow stamp set and the Labels Aglow Dies. I also used the Whimsical Woodland 3D Embossing Folder.

 

 

 

For this first card I used Night of Navy cardstock for the base of my card. Then I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Whimsical Woodland 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the base of the card.  I also adhered a piece of Basic White to the inside. I cut two pieces of Night of Navy cardstock (the measurements I used are below the Supply List) and layered them with two pieces of Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper. I adhered the vertical piece to the front of the card but added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the other before adhering it to the card. 

 

 

 

I heat embossed the sentiment with silver embossing powder and cut it out using the Labels Aglow Dies. If you aren’t sure how to emboss, you’ll find directions below.  I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the sentiment and adhered it to the horizontal piece. To complete the card, I added three silver Festive Pearls.

 

 

 

For this next card, I used Real Red cardstock and Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper. I also heat embossed the sentiment with silver embossing powder and used Rhinestone Basic Jewels. 

 

 

 

 

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!

Stampin’ Up! Perched in a Tree Bundle

Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Perched in a Tree Bundle which includes the stamp set Perched in a Tree and the Aspen Tree Dies. This bundle was unavailable for some time but it’s now in stock. 

 

 

 

I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then cut a piece of Garden Green & another of Soft Sea Foam cardstock.  I ran them through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I then cut a piece of Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper and adhered all three pieces to the front of my card. 

 

 

 

I used the Aspen Tree Dies to cut two leaves out of Garden Green cardstock and one of out Soft Sea Foam cardstock.  The beauty of these dies is that they not only cut out the leaves but they’re embossed too! I set the leaves aside and then stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Garden Green ink using the stamp set Perched in a Tree. I then cut it out using the Labels Aglow Dies

 

 

I used Mini Glue Dots to attached the leaves to the sentiment and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. 

 

 

I placed a Festive Pearl on each side of the sentiment and three more on the background.
