Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape Steals the Spotlight

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

If you’re ready to make a bold floral statement in your paper crafting, then the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape is your new best friend. This isn’t your average skinny washi — at a generous 3-¼″ wide, it’s like a watercolor garden unfurling right on your cardstock. The tape is a feast for the eyes, alternating between dreamy pinks and purples in the same botanical motif, which gives you double the creative possibilities in one roll. It feels vibrant, lush, and completely show-stopping.

What I love most is how instantly it transforms even the simplest card. I applied a strip of this gorgeous tape onto Basic White cardstock — with a pop of Highland Heather behind it and the Brick embossing folder for texture and suddenly before I knew it, my “simple card” looked like something straight out of a boutique. If you enjoy quick crafting without sacrificing the “wow,” this tape is going to be your new best friend.

You can also use it for backgrounds, embellishments, gift wrap accents, planner pages, scrapbook layouts — this tape gives you enough length (a full 10 yards!) and enough artistic flair to create over and over again. It’s bright, it’s happy, and it brings the look of hand-painted art to your projects with almost no effort at all.

If you’re looking for a way to add major floral “wow” to your cards this season, treat yourself to a roll of Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape. It’s beauty, ease, and creativity all rolled into one — and I promise, once you try it, you’ll be reaching for it again and again. Let your creativity bloom big!

Thanks for stopping by today, my friends. Let your creativity bloom big!

Silent Snowfall Shines in This Eye-Catching Diagonal Card Front

Posted in Christmas, HANDMADE CARDS, VIDEO by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m excited to share two beautiful winter cards featuring the Silent Snowfall Specialty Paper and the Snowflake Kisses Dies. These cards were part of last week’s Facebook LIVE—if you missed it, no worries! You can catch the full video replay on YouTube by simply clicking the link. Every Tuesday night I go LIVE to share tips, techniques, new products, and plenty of creative inspiration. My goal is always the same: fun, simple cards that are beautiful yet easy to recreate, and these winter cards fit that perfectly.

For both designs, I started with an A2 tent-fold style card base—11″ x 4¼”, scored at 5½”. From there, the magic happens! The first card features that stunning diagonal-cut front using the dreamy Silent Snowfall paper backed with sparkling glitter. One angled cut is all it takes to turn a traditional card into a real wow piece. The Snowflake Kisses Dies add the perfect frosty finishing touch. The second card follows the same layout and the same coloring technique using the blending brushes. I stepped it up a bit with more sparkle, showcasing the Peaceful Garden Glimmer paper and some additional layering.

All the dimensions, cutting instructions, and step-by-step details can be found right in the video, so grab a notebook if you want to jot them down. Whether you’re looking to try a new layout or simply love winter crafting, these cards will warm your heart with creativity.

Sunflower Card — A Simple Techniques with Stunning Results

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

There’s something about sunflowers that warms the heart, even on the chilliest days… and today’s project captures exactly that feeling. I’m shining a little spotlight on the Sunflower 3-D Embossing Folder, and oh my goodness — this folder truly does all the work for you. With just one pass through your machine, you get this gorgeous, dimensional sunflower design that instantly elevates your card. Whether you’re creating a background for your cardmaking or adding texture to a scrapbook layout, it brings that soft touch of nature we love.

My card today uses the most simple layout — proof that you don’t need complicated steps to create something beautiful. The Garden Green card base (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″) frames the Crushed Curry embossed layer perfectly. And from there… it’s all about the little touches. I added a wash of Garden Green to the leaves using our Water Painters, just enough to give a soft, watercolor feel without overpowering the sunflowers. Then, with a light hand and a sponge dauber, I brushed Crumb Cake ink into the centers and lightly onto the petals, adding warmth and depth. A little Wink of Stella brings that gentle sparkle — like sunlight catching the edges of each petal.

To finish the card, I stamped I Miss You Already from the Right Words Stamp Set. It felt fitting today… the air has turned crisp, the last leaves have drifted from the trees, and autumn seems to have slipped quietly away. I miss it already — and this sunflower brings a little of that golden glow back.

I hope this card inspires you to pull out your embossing folders and play with color, texture, and sparkle. The Sunflower 3-D Embossing Folder is truly a must-have for quick, stunning cards — and you’ll find all the product links below if it’s calling your name.

Thanks for stopping by today, my friends. Stay warm, stay creative, and let your craft space brighten your day. 🌻✨

Runner-Up Spotlight – Jolly Holly Bundle Beauty! 🎄

Posted in Christmas, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

It’s time to celebrate our Runner-Up in the Fall Stamping Retreat Attendee Swap Contest — the talented Toni Morgan! 🌟

Toni created this stunning Christmas card using the Jolly Holly Bundle, and oh my goodness… it’s SO Christmas! 🎅💚 You all know how much I love holly — it’s one of those timeless images that just says “holiday season” to me, and Toni captured that beautifully.

She started with a Cherry Cobbler card base, then embossed the front with the coordinating Jolly Holly Hybrid Embossing Folder. This folder is really special — it’s one of those unique tools where a die fits inside the folder so you can cut and emboss at the same time! Talk about a timesaver that adds an instant wow factor!

Toni layered her design with a Very Vanilla mat, perfectly framing the card front and her greeting (stamped in Cherry Cobbler, of course!). One of the things my customers love most about Stampin’ Up! is the color coordination — the way ink, paper, and embellishments all match beautifully — and Toni showcased that perfectly here.

For her focal point, Toni used the two rectangular dies from the bundle — one to cut into the Cherry Cobbler layer, exposing the Very Vanilla beneath so she could stamp her sentiment, and the other to create a delicate gold frame that she layered around it. Such a clever design element! ✨

To complete her card, she stamped, colored, and die-cut the holly to adorn her framed sentiment, creating that festive finishing touch. And because Toni has an amazing eye for detail, she added the Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive-Backed Berries to her embossed background — giving her card texture, shine, and even more Christmas cheer. 🎁

This bundle was one of our Spotlight Sessions during retreat, so not only did attendees receive Toni’s beautiful swap card, but they also got to create three additional cards I designed to showcase the highlights of this wonderful bundle.

Toni’s card truly captures the joy and elegance of the holiday season — full of texture, color, and creativity. It’s no wonder she took home Runner-Up honors in our Attendee Swap Contest! 🏆❤️

I’ll be back tomorrow with our WINNER and her card. Thanks for stopping by!

Third Runner-Up Spotlight – Attendee Swap Fun! 🎉

Posted in Birthday, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today we’re sharing the 3rd runner-up from our Fall Stamping Retreat Attendee Swap, and let me tell you — this one is just stunning! 🌟

This beautiful card was created by Karie Kahrs using the Traditions of Christmas Suite. At first glance, you might think, “Christmas card,” but Karie took her creativity to the next level… she turned it into a Birthday Card! How clever is that? So many of us have loved ones with birthdays close to the holidays who prefer a “real” birthday card — this is pure inspiration! 🎂✨

The base of the card is Old Olive, with coordinating mats and a banner to frame the design perfectly. Karie die-cut the floral piece from the suite and popped it up on her focal point, creating dimension and a gorgeous layered look.

Here’s where her creativity really shone: the birthday greeting was heat embossed in gold, giving it that elegant, celebratory feel. She then added a swatch of gold foil paper behind the flowers and sentiment to make everything pop. And to top it off, she added the Traditional Sparkling Sequins in Gold from the suite — just the perfect finishing touch! ✨💛

This card is a fantastic example of taking a Christmas-themed suite and using it beyond the holidays. Karie’s design proves that a little imagination and clever use of products can create something totally unique — and that’s exactly why she earned 3rd place in our Attendee Swap Contest! 🏆

We hope Karie’s card inspires you to look at your stamp sets and papers in a whole new way. Who says Christmas products are just for December? 😉

Thanks for joining me today … stop back for our 2nd runner up tomorrow!

A Heartfelt Sympathy Card with the Peaceful Garden Suite

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Happy Sunday! Today I’m excited to share a card that highlights the Peaceful Garden Suite, a stunning collection that beautifully blends the peaceful spirit of the holidays with the timeless elegance of nature. While it’s perfect for creating heartfelt Christmas cards, tags, and scrapbook pages, what I love most about this suite is how effortlessly it transitions into projects for any occasion — even those moments when you want to send a comforting message of sympathy or peace.

For today’s card, I wanted to show that versatility. The background features the soft, serene pattern of doves from the Peaceful Garden Designer Paper — a symbol of peace and hope. The sentiment, “With Deepest Sympathy,” is stamped on a circle die cut using the Spotlight on Nature Dies, giving it a gentle focal point. I added delicate die cuts and a graceful dove from the suite, bringing a sense of calm and compassion to the design. To complete the look, I added some of the beautiful ribbon behind my sentiment.

🌿 Peaceful. Elegant. Timeless.
That’s the heart of the Peaceful Garden Suite.

If you’re looking for a suite that brings both elegance and emotion to your cardmaking, the Peaceful Garden Suite is a perfect choice. Whether you’re creating for Christmas or crafting cards that comfort and uplift year-round, this collection helps you share your heart through handmade art. 💕 Click the links below to explore the full suite and bring a touch of peace to your next project.

Special Delivery from the North Pole! You’ll LOVE What’s Inside!

Posted in Christmas, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Yesterday I shared 2 cards created with the Hobby Haven Designer paper, so I thought I’d share the same concept of creating but with a sprinkle of Christmas magic ….

Send joyful tidings this holiday season with the North Pole Delivery Specialty Designer Series Paper! This adorable 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) paper pack is bursting with cheer and whimsy—filled with playful dogs, bears, and other festive friends busily delivering holiday letters and packages. With its classic Christmas palette of reds and greens, it’s impossible not to smile when you start creating with it!

One of my favorite features of this paper is the two sheets of precut images—ready-to-use accents that make crafting a breeze! I used a few of these darling images on today’s project, pairing them with the Spotlight on Nature dies. The different-sized circles were perfect for framing my chosen designs and sentiment, giving each element the attention it deserves. For the greetings, I reached for the Words for the Season stamp set—it’s packed with sentiments that fit beautifully with this cheerful paper collection.

To complete the design, I added a touch of texture using the So Swirly embossing folder, which created a fun, blustery background—just like a winter day at the North Pole! And I used the Old Olive Low Profile Sparkle Dots to bring a little magic and coordinating color into our design.

And of course, I couldn’t stop with the front of the card. The inside is decked out too, featuring one of those cute die-cut trucks and a sentiment highlighted with the Stylish Shapes dies.

Whether you’re making cards, decking out your scrapbook pages, or designing cute packaging for gifts, the North Pole Delivery Specialty Designer Paper is sure to add a touch of merry magic to everything you create. It’s the perfect way to send a little North Pole joy straight from your craft table!

Thank you for joining me today, I hope you feel inspired to try out this adorable paper pack, the layout or a combination of both. You’ll find the supplies you need listed below.

Turn Patterned Paper into Pure Autumn Elegance 🍁

Posted in Fall / Autumn, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Yikes!! It’s been a bit since I’ve been here with you, however I’m back and with another version of the last card I posted. It was such a bit hit, I thought you’d like to see this layout done with a different bundle! Today I’m using the Autumn Toile Designer Series paper.

This gorgeous paper pack brings in a classic toile motif—think delicate, vintage-inspired scenes in rich autumn colours. The “toile” style gives it that timeless elegance, making it perfect for those fall cards that feel both cozy and refined. With its intricate imagery of trees, pumpkins, animals, and more, this collection instantly elevates any project. Let the Autumn Toile… take center stage …

Because the paper itself is so striking, you don’t need a lot of extras—the pattern can stand on its own, letting you focus on framing or accenting it rather than adding tons of clutter.

To create the card, start with a base that’s 8-1/2″ x 4-1/4″, then score and fold it at 4-1/4″ to form a perfect square card. The designer paper is then cut into an easy 4″ x 4″ piece which leaves NO waste of your designer paper. When attaching your circle dies with the greeting, use a ruler or template to keep the total height at 5-1/2″—that way, your masterpiece fits neatly into a standard envelope.

I hope this little project inspires you to pull out the Autumn Toile paper and the Spotlight on Nature dies and get crafting. It’s such a satisfying combination: the timeless charm of toile, the precision and framing of the dies, and your own creative twist. Whether you’re making a few quick cards for fall gatherings or designing something special for a loved one, this pairing delivers warmth, elegance, and ease.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope you are enjoying a beautiful Sunday!

Peaceful. Elegant. Easy. You’ll Love this Layout, and the Bundle!

Posted in Christmas, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m sharing an oh-so-pretty card that’s just as easy to make as it is beautiful! This one features the Peace on Earth Bundle, and let me tell you—it’s an absolute must-have. The stamp sentiments are perfectly sized to fit the die-cut labels, which takes all the guesswork out of coordination (don’t you just love when Stampin’ Up! makes it easy for us?). Even better, the sentiments go beyond Christmas! You’ll find greetings that work for thinking of you, sympathy, and encouragement, making this a bundle you’ll reach for all year long.

The coordinating dies are full of thoughtful details—graceful doves, delicate branches, and even tiny envelopes for your doves to carry! I paired this amazing bundle with the Spotlight on Nature Dies and the Thoughtful Designs Specialty Designer Paper for a soft, elegant look. The designer paper I used is not longer available but not to worry, you can easily use any of your favorite patterned papers with this fun and versatile layout.

To create the card, start with a base that’s 8-1/2″ x 4-1/4″, then score and fold it at 4-1/4″ to form a perfect square card. The designer paper is then cut into an easy 4″ x 4″ piece which leaves NO waste of your designer paper. When attaching your circle dies with the greeting, use a ruler or template to keep the total height at 5-1/2″—that way, your masterpiece fits neatly into a standard envelope.

The die-cut dove adds such a lovely touch that you really don’t need any extra embellishments… unless, of course, you love that little bit of sparkle like I do! I added just a hint of silver ribbon for shimmer and shine. The result? A simple, elegant card that works for the holidays—or any time you want to send peace and comfort.

The Peace on Earth Bundle truly delivers on its name—it’s peaceful, versatile, and oh-so-pretty! Once you start creating with it, you’ll wonder how you ever crafted without it. ✨

Thanks for stopping by and check out my card today … hope this layout inspires you to try one of your own. Happy Stampin’! Linda
