It's time to hop along with the Stamping With Friends September Blog Hop as we showcase the new September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. Our wonderful Design Team will be sharing their projects and ideas featuring new products to help you get ready for the holidays. I am not normally a flower person, but I must admit, I fell in love with the gorgeous designs in the new Regal Winter Designer Series Paper from the new mini catalog. There is just something about the beautiful, bold color combinations that spoke to my heart and I knew that it would be perfect for creating elegant clean and simple card designs. For today's card, I chose to pair it with the new Autumn Expressions Bundle to create the sentiment focal image. I love how the Gold embossing pops against the Blackberry Bliss cardstock and the Gold Foil is perfect for the frame around the sentiment. Products Used: Autumn Expressions Bundle (item #164056) Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (item #164156) Gold Foil Sheets (item #132622) Blackberry Bliss Cardstock (item #133675) Versamark Pad (item #102283) Metallics Wow Embossing Powders (item #165678) Gold Textured Adhesive Backed Dots (item #164027) Stampin' Dimensionals (item #104430) Measurements: Blackberry Bliss Cardstock Card Base - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" (Scored at 4 1/4") Sentiment Label die cut with the Autumn Expressions Dies Regal Winter Designer Series Paper Card Front - 5 1/4" x 4" Gold Foil Sheets Frame die cut with the Autumn Expressions Dies I am always looking for new ways to create beautiful clean and simple card designs and I thought that combining the Regal Winter Designer Series Paper with the Autumn Expressions Bundle was a perfect combination. To begin, I started with a Blackberry Bliss cardstock card base and added the floral design as my card front. To create the sentiment label, I die cut one half of the frame using the die cut from the Autumn Expressions Dies and heat embossed the sentiment from the Autumn Expressions stamp set with Gold embossing powder onto the center die cut. For the Gold frame, I did the same thing, by die cutting the frame from a piece of Gold Foil and then aligned the Blackberry Bliss sentiment label inside the Gold frame and added Stampin' Dimensionals to the back to hold the two pieces together. I then added it to the center of the card front to create my simply Wow card design. To complete the design, I chose to use several of the new Gold Textured Adhesive Backed Dots, which can also be found in the new September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. I added the Gold dots to several of the red flowers on the designer series paper to help make them pop. I love how this card turned out and it would work well for so many occasions, including as a special birthday card. Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.

Hi Everyone, I just can't seem to get enough of the adorable Sweet Peas Stamp Set. I've posted about it a few times now and we used it in ...
Welcome to week 4 of the Heart of Christmas for 2024. I am sure you are enjoying following us each week on a Monday and we will be here until the end of November. This week I have for you a fold that I have seen a few times but I have never tried myself and thought I might give it a go. It is a Pop Up Book Fold. It has been around for a long time and I have thought I could use it again with this gorgeous stamp set Shepherd's Care. I have gone very simple on the front of the card and again this week used the gorgeous Seasons of Elegance Specialty DSP with the gold foil throughout the paper. I have used Pretty Peacock as the card base and Basic Beige as the layer. On the front I have gold embossed the sentiment on the Basic Beige and cut it out using the Everyday Detail dies and backed it with a layer of Cherry Cobbler card stock and then the new gorgeous Cherry Cobbler and Gold Satin Ribbon underneath is divine! This is how the book pop up fold looks before you decorate. The couple of version I found were for a larger version and wouldn't fit in our C6 envelopes so I worked it out to fit inside our normal card size and envelope. So you have seen the front and the card base of Pretty Peacock then this layer which is the fancy Book Pop Up Fold I did in Basic Beige. I have used the gorgeous Season of Elegance Specialty DSP to line all the surfaces of the fold, the outer one in the Basic Beige and the inner and the book surface in the Pretty Peacock. Plus just for a pop of colour I added a strip of the Cherry Cobbler piece as well. I have stamped the Shepherd from Shepherd's Card in Basic Gray on Basic White and then coloured using the Stampin' Blends. Light & Dark Crumb Cake, Light & Dark Pretty Peacock, Light Lost Lagoon and Ivory. The star and the sentiment on the right hand side of the book has also been embossed in gold but on Basic Beige this time and the star has been fussy cut out. To write your message on the card I have added a spot on the back of the card. This angle of the card give you a great view of the fold. If you have any questions about my project today or would like to get your hands on the new Sept-Dec Mini that goes live next week please do not hesitate to contact me.

Fall is in the air, and what better way to celebrate than with some heartwarming handmade crafts? Today, I'm sharing delightful autumn-themed projects using Stampin' Up's More Than Autumn Bundle. The first card features adorable coffee cup and whipped cream images, perfect for expressing warm feelings. The sentiment 'Love You More Than' adds a sweet touch, making it ideal for loved ones. My second card showcases a festive mix of fall motifs - a pumpkin-spice latte, donuts, and autumn leaves. The embossed background adds texture, while the 'hello' sentiment welcomes the season.
