Earlier I shared some of the swaps I received using the Brightly Gleaming Suite of products and today here are a few more! This Suite contains some lovely Foil Elements and a wonderful Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder for those of us who like to add a bit more wow to our cards, and this group of products does deliver that!
Here are some cards that pack a wow with their Copper Metallic accents

It’s a rainy day here in Northeast Georgia so I’m going to take advantage of that and stamp. This kind of weather is perfect for that kind of thing I think. So today’s post will be a quick one sharing a card with you that I thought I had shared earlier in the month. So here we go. Seems I need to spend a bit of time cleaning up piles on my desk too. lol
Today’s card is a fancy fold card that uses just a few score lines to create a wow factor – This card will be simple to make for your Halloween fun
Using our Spectacular Bash Suite of Products it’s sure to make that special trick or treater smile when they open it.
How do you create this fold? Simply take a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ card stock base and score it 2 1/8″ and then at 4 1/4″. Yep, it’s that simple!

There is a nip in the air now, and we’ve had some beautiful fall days so I thought I’d share with you some Halloween cards as the little trick or treaters will be knocking on our doors soon. My kids used to love playing dress up and I would sew their costumes so that they could play in them all year long. Anyhow, great memories but that was many moons ago… So here are some great cards that are a lot of fun for us grown ups who enjoy a bit of Halloween fun too.
This stamp set includes 4 little chicks are dressed up for 4 different winter holidays which makes it a great set for those cards and treats we will be making!
And of course I’ve shared these adorable little monsters with you before from the Boo To You stamp set (150550) in an earlier post for a fun treat item.
And finally if you like a more realistic look for Halloween you’ll want to check out The Raven (150593) great for simple stamping since the art work is great all by itself.
The moon on this card was created by using a simple masking technique. Cut out a circle from a sticky note place it where you’d like and then use a Stampin’ Sponge to add ink. Remove the sticky note when you’re done and you have this great moon. So simple, but it creates a great effect!
So what do you think? Like these cards? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which you like the best? Then stop by my Online Store and get yours.

This little guy immediately drew my attention when I first saw the 2019 Holiday Catalog back in August. I’m not sure what it is about this set, whether its the fact that it has a punch, is filled with nature and wildlife options or the sentiments – I think it is a great addition to my collection.
Now that you’ve seen the set check out these great cards
This first one is simply gorgeous in person as it is a fancy fold and creates a wonderful winter scene.
This fold is created with a few score lines and will fold flat for mailing. It does have a couple of layers that the moose are on which gives it more depth to the card
base: 4 1/4″ x 8″ ; scored at 1 1/4″, 2 1/2″, 5 1/2″, and 6 3/4″
The front snow layer is 5 1/2″ wide and then the two – 1/2″ strips are just 4 inches long and scored on each end at 1/2″. These were added at two different heights and attached to the inside panels.
I can’t wait to try one of these myself. I’ll be sharing a tutorial when I do for sure!
And here is a another card done in Crumb Cake and Early Espresso
Both of these cards use the Woodland 3D Embossing Folder (139673) which is currently on back order and unavailable to order. But no worries it should be back in stock by mid November. Email me if you would like me to add you to my list and I’ll let you know when it is available again.

Any one who knows me knows I can’t resist a coffee cup, I’ve been collecting them for years on my vacations, so when I saw the Cup of Christmas Stamp set (150491) I just knew I had to get it. Add the fact that this set includes a NEW type of stamp call Reversibles and you have a winner for this holiday season.
While the stamp set can be used traditionally as is, you can also use the back side of the stamp giving you a mirror image of the coffee cup – such a simple idea that makes stamping mirror images of this cup so easy!

Want to make a difference? Stampin’ Up! has introduced a stamp set in the 2019 Holiday Catalog that does just that. The Nature’s Beauty stamp set found on page 63, not only has beautiful images that you can make wonderful project with, but it also gives a $3 donation to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (or NAMI). That’s a win, win. So if you haven’t already noticed this stamp set, why not take a look?
Here are some lovely cards made with the set. The first one uses a combination of sponging and Stampin’ Blends to create this soft feel.
The Come to Gather Designer Series Paper (150454) is used as a back drop and the gold foil leaves that were embossed and cut with the Gathered Leaves Dies (150662).
Lot of texture and a touch of fall.
And how about this next card? The Watercolor swish behind the deer creates a lovely highlight effect.
And finally this last card uses Vellum Card stock (101856) and White Embossing Powder (109132) to create a wonderful card.
Don’t you love the photographic images and soft colors of the Feels like Frost Specialty Designer Series paper? (150444). This card has been done in shades of blue and finished off with a lovely bow made with the Seaside Spray 1/4″ Metallic Ribbon (150446). This card definitely packs a wow.
