Just a simple little Christmas card for you today…

but it does use a few NEW items like the Stampin’ UP! Woodland Scenery stamp set and the Traditional Wreath 3D Embossing Folder. I also the Framed Scenes Dies from the Online Exclusives. At first, I thought why is the Embossing Folder this big?!?! Then when I trimmed it to fit my card front- I loved that it covered the whole card in a unique curved way. I want to use it again with a sweet sentiment coming from the middle- perhaps in some green color. It would make a great framed piece with all the berries colored or popped with red embellishments!

Hey, I even added in a retired sentiment to my card…it came from the Stampin’ UP! Greetings of the Season stamp set because my friend, Sally, will need it for her mother-in-law to hand out! I think I may dot some snow falling later today…look back tomorrow to see if I do…well, I do like it with snow!

Gotta run to do a bunch of stuff…hope you all have a most blessed week!

Happy September, friends! A fresh new month with the NEW September-December 2025 Mini Catalog and the September 2025 Online Exclusives launching on SEPTEMBER 3, 2025! There is one thing you should run to order…I mean “Don’t walk, but run”! It’s the Greetings for You Ephemera Pack #166208!

I popped all the pieces out- really thick with self-adhesive backing! These are QUALITY pieces so easy to pair on any Christmas card! You get 126- yes, you read that right…126 gold sentiments for just $8.50!!! I put these two cards together lickedty-split by die cutting out the gorgeous florals from the Christmas Traditions Designer Series Paper.

The Christmas Greenery Bundle has the same images as the DSP so once the DSP is gone, you can stamp and die cut any colored flowers you want!

I also used the 3D Greenery Embossing Folder for the Peaceful Garden Suite that works so nicely with the florals in the Stampin’ UP! Christmas Greenery Bundle.

I did use Cloud Cover as my blue on the card but…the color in the DSP is Pool Party! Although it works with Cloud Cover, it definitely looks better with Pool Party once you put the image on it:)

I also used the Loose Gold Sequins on the card- another very economical embellishment for your holiday card decorating! And don’t forget that Stampin’ UP! has another great Online Exclusive DSP with gold in it- the Modern Christmas Designer Series Paper- which would work great with the gold sequins and the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack- these could be your answer to quick, easy, and gorgeous Christmas cards this year!

Heck, I just made this card in 4 minutes flat with the NEW Words for the Season Stamp Set (that is also a Bundle coming out with AWESOME Word Die Cuts!

The gold twine is not Stampin’ UP!- just in my stash!

I made this card with a large Poppy Parade die cut from the Stampin’ UP! Branching Out Dies. It became a frame when I die cut the next smaller die inside it.

Then, I die cut the next smaller die inside the leftover die piece from the frame above and made the HELLO card below.

And once again, I die cut the inside out of the Poppy Parade die cut left over from the frame on the card above and used it on the card below…

I stamped the pine branches in Early Espresso and Garden Green and the red berries and then die cut the middle out of the panel with a die smaller than the leftover Poppy Parade die cut from the Hello card. Then I simply slid the Poppy Parade die cut under the middle stamped die and popped it up on the larger stamped panel!

LOL…a look inside my stamping mind…

Some repeating branches on the inside finishes off the card.

Oh, this card today is a pretty one…not because I made it but because the Stampin’ UP! Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper is gorgeous! One of my friends, Steph Briggs, even represented it in her wardrobe the other day! I love it when I see Stampin’ UP! colors everywhere! Steff has a smile that brightens every room she enters:)

Now, I went with two other patterns with Secret Sea and Petal Pink in them on my Triple Z-fold card. My base is Mossy Meadow on both cards.

It is so EASY to make this card- I even made it so you can get 8 cards out of ONE sheet of DSP! Watch my video for the tip!

I love the beautiful colors in the DSP- I did use another pattern on the right side of this card- that is, I didn’t use the opposite side of the horizontal strips. I stamped the pear- pretty nice, huh? Well, the distinctive aspect of this stamp helped give it an artistic feel. And, this stamp is photopolymer AND is distinctive so not being red rubber was not an issue getting that distinktive look!

I love all the colors in the DSP- bright and dark that complement each other. On the next card, I die cut the pears out. You get 10 pears on each piece so that’s 11 with two sheets. And I even spliced together three pears from the edges:) I used the back of the horiaontal strips for the vertical strip on the right side. This is how you can get 8 cards from one sheet of DSP. I fussy cut the pink posies from the sheet that has all the big pears, stems and a smaller pair of pears.

Measurements: Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 6-3/4″ scored at 1-1/4″ and 2-1/2″ on the 6-3/4″ side, (3) 1-1/4″ x 6-3/4″ strips of CS scored at 1-1/4″ and 2-1/2″, (3) strips of DSP: 1″ x 4″ and (1) strip 1″ x 5-1/4″, Back White: 4″ x 5-1/4″, varying piece of CS for any shape focal point to put pears

This DSP is on sale until August 31 because it has a 2025-2027 In Color in it- Darling Duckling!
