Today’s card is a gift card holder or it can be used to just add a note and it’s so easy to make! I used Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Framed & Festive. Both of these products are available while supplies last.
I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock and scored it in two places to create a flap and pocket (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then, I added Tear & Tape on the smaller section and folded it up to create a pocket.
I cut two pieces of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper and then colored the berries with a Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blend. If you’ve never used Stampin’ Blends before, you’ll want to cover your work surface because the pens will bleed through the paper. Next, I adhered the larger piece to the front flap and folded it down and then added the smaller piece to the pocket. If you adhere the bigger piece first and fold the piece over, you can see how much of a border you’ll have when you adhere the smaller piece.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Evening Evergreen ink and the stamp set, Framed & Festive. Then I cut it out using the Layering Circles Dies. I cut a larger scalloped circle out of Real Red cardstock and adhered the two together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top half of the circle and adhered it to the top flap.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and placed it it in the pocket on the inside of the card.

Today’s cards are fun folds which means they don’t open in the traditional way. I used Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper for this first one and one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders. You can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List.
I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock and scored and folded to create my fun fold. Then I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock, embossed them using one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders (on sale until tomorrow) and attached them to the two front panels. Then I cut another piece of Real Red cardstock and layered it with a piece of Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side only and then adhered it to the left panel.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Garden Green ink and the stamp set Framed & Festive. This stamp set is only available while supplies last. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies (also on sale until tomorrow!), added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
This next card was made using Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper. This paper has been out of stock but is now available! You can see another version of this card HERE.
I wasn’t going to share this card because the Lights Aglow Designer Series Paper is sold out but if you happen to already have this paper, here’s another idea for you using the same fold.
I used the Brightest Glow stamp set (one of my favorites in the Mini Catalog) and heat embossed the sentiment using Gold Embossing Powder. I also used Cherry Cobbler cardstock, Gold Foil and the Labels Aglow Dies. The Lights Aglow Designer Series Paper was cut down to 3″ x 3″ and the gold foil is 3-1/4″ x 3-1/4″.
Bundle Alert: The Brightest Glow Bundle (159552) includes the Brightest Glow stamp set and the Labels Aglow Dies. When you purchase both together in a bundle, you’ll receive a 10% discount.

Happy Halloween!!
Today’s card features the stamp set, Framed & Festive (#160888). This stamp set and several other products will be available starting tomorrow, November 1st! Framed & Festive will only be available while supplies last!! If you click HERE, you can see the flyer with all the products, prices and item numbers.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I layered Pool Party cardstock with a piece of Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper and adhered it at the bottom of the card base.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Pool Party ink and the Framed & Festive stamp set. Then I cut it out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I cut another, larger rectangle out of Pool Party cardstock using these same dies and adhered the sentiment to it. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back but before I placed it on the card, I adhered the Wonderful Snowflake to the front of the card using a Mini Glue Dot and then placed the sentiment on top of it.
To complete the card, I added five Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems to the front of the card.

Last Day for Starter Kit Special
The Starter Kit is always $99 but today’s the last day you’ll be able to choose $155 in Stampin’ Up! product instead of $125. Both are great deals but $30 more, well, that’s even better! The Starter Kit ships free so you won’t have to pay shipping costs! If you’re thinking the Starter Kit is only for those who’d like to start a business, it isn’t. When I purchased the Starter Kit, I only did it for the discount because I loved Stampin’ Up! products. I had absolutely no intention of starting my own business (but as you can see, I changed my mind). There are quarterly minimums but if you don’t reach them, you’ll simply be dropped, no questions asked. It truly is risk free.
