Check out these three cards made with the Warm Hugs Bundle (155145) found in the suite. While they all use the same stamp set they have such different looks. This first card uses the coffee cup wrap made using the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper (153492) to create a lovely backdrop for the sentiment.

The Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder (153574) was used to add texture to the background and heart.

And how about this one using with a traditional feel? The Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper (150432) and Winter Snow Embossing Folder (153577) have been used too along with the bundle.

And finally this last card is done in Crumb Cake, Soft Sea Foam and Terracotta Tile – These colors have been pulled from the Plaid Tidings 6×6 Designer Series Paper (153527) to create this card for a special someone.

In the Pines

Love nature images? If so then the In the Pines Bundle (155182) might be just the thing you are looking for. This set is full of pines in different sizes and contains not only a holiday sentiment but a thinking of you too! Making it a great choice for masculine cards. Team it up with the coordinating Pine Woods Dies (153563) that are part of the Year End Closeout tomorrow and you’ll save too.

Want to see some cards made using this bundle of products? Here are 4 cards. This first one uses that “Thinking of You” sentiment I mentioned and is a wonderful masculine option.

Done in Mossy Meadow and Early Espresso with lots of texture since it uses not only the dies but also the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder (153576). And check out these 3 cards made for the holidays.

These first two cards both use the Plaid Tidings 6×6 Designer Series Paper stack (153527). This stack of papers is so great since it has a color pallet you can use all winter long. The sentiment on this next card is from sentiment set, For Unto Us (153335). This set is filled with wonderful sentiments that coordinate with all kinds of stamp sets and conveys the reason for the season.

And finally this last card uses a basic stamped back ground, that 2 of the images were cut out with the dies and then popped up. They are slightly off set so that the Mossy Meadow card stock peaks out from behind lending it a shadow.

And the ribbon, do you recognize it? It is the the lovely Metallic Mesh Ribbon (153550).

Many of these items will be included in our Year End Closeout Sale that starts tomorrow. If you’d like to see the lists and a video walking you though all the items that will be retiring tomorrow you can CLICK HERE.

Just a helpful note: You’ll want to check your shopping list for items that are part of the suite or bundles. Some of these products might be a better savings purchased separately rather than as part of the bundle or suite.

Beautiful Autumn & More

Today I’m sharing a couple of cards with you using the Beautiful Autumn Bundle (155189) and more. This bundle has quickly become a favorite of mine with it’s lovely sentiments and selection of images that can be punched out. There are a great size for treats also, which I love to make too and makes it a versatile option for the fall season.

This first card uses the bold color pallet from the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) that it uses. I love the way this little stack of 6×6 pattern can be used from fall all the way through the end of winter due to the selection of colors in it.

And here is another card using the same stamp set, but this time it has been teamed up with the beautiful Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (153520).

The sentiment has been cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies (152886). If you haven’t invested in this set of dies you’ll want to since it is wonderful for all kinds of projects! It contains all kinds of shapes and sizes making it a great addition to your collection!

And today’s final card add these wonderful embossed leaves that were cut out with the Gathered Leaves Dies (150662).

The Gold Metallic Pearls (146282) add a bit of texture and richness to this card and I like the way that the Layering Circles Dies (151770) are used to high light the punched out moose.

And the pines are peeking through the cut out created with the Heart Punch Pack (151292) for this next card.

Gift Wrapped

First a quick reminder if you haven’t already redeemed your Bonus Days Coupons there are just a couple of days left to do so.

You don’t want to miss out on the savings while you get some of your favorite new things too!

Today’s stamp set seemed perfect for today’s post since I feel like I unwrapped a wonderful gift yesterday afternoon with the kick off of our leadership event. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate each and everyone of you who allow me to share what I love with you. Without you I couldn’t achieve my goals and be included in special leadership events like the Leaders Summit this weekend. So here’s to you!

I thought I’d give you a little look of my peek at my set up this weekend – my guys helped me rearrange a bit so I’d be more comfy with a larger screen to stream on.

Sorry I know they aren’t the best pictures, my daughter says I’m selfie challenged, but you get the idea. Of course, as with every Stampin’ Up! event we need some chocolate and snacks.

And yes, Larry did spot the chocolate first thing as he walked through the classroom lol. (You’ll be happy to know I did provide him with his own little bowl which made him happy. Although, I’m not sure how much he got since Johnathan quickly found it too!)

Well on to the projects, right? These cards are all made with the Gift Wrapped Bundle found in our Mini Catalog. While each of the 3 cards use the same stamp set, each has a very different look. Isn’t that the great thing about stamps? We all start with the same stamps but we can get creative and personalize it to suit our needs.

This first card teams up the Gift Wrapped Bundle with the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) and some vellum that has been dry embossed using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder (153577) for a festive feel.

This next monochromatic card is done in Pretty Peacock.

Some shine has been added to the bow with Clear Embossing Powder. The bow was first stamped in Pretty Peacock Classic Ink and then again in VersaMark. Allowing it to be heat embossed which gives it really cool effect. And if you didn’t notice them in the Mini, the Iridescent Pearls (153549) are simply beautiful!

This last card uses the lovely Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (153512) and the Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper (153513).

Talk about sparkle and glimmer! And check out the cute little Snowflake Adhesive Baked Embellishments (153545).

This Bundle includes a punch – and punches are one of my favorite things for quick and easy card making and other projects.

And did you know if your bows on your packages get squished and flattened you can try this? The Bundle will allow you to create lovely flat bows for those packages this holiday season so you can feel free to stack those packages!

Gather Together

As crazy as it sounds the last rain showers brought yellow leaves fluttering down along the roadsides and in my front yard. It seems way too early with our 90 degree days but these little leaves are always the first sign of fall for me. And for some reason they always catch me by surprise every year the first time I see them. Then I have to remind myself that it is mid August and the hot days won’t last much longer. So that got me thinking about leaves and the Gather Together Bundle that has some wonderful images and dies for our fall crafting needs. Check out these lovely cards done with this Bundle.

This first card uses our new In Color Cinnamon Cider and the maple leaf has been colored with our Stampin’ Blends – love, love, love this coloring option for bold colors!

The Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper (153520) was used along with the Timeless Label Punch (149516).

This next card uses our Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) and the embossing dies that are part of the bundle. They cut and emboss texture at the same time which is pretty cool.

Gather Together

open it and you have a fun little surprise – the sentiment panel is attached to the card front only giving you a different look that allows the card to stand on it’s own.

Gather Together

Some simple stamping and die cutting creates this lovely card.

Gather Together

And how about this final card? It uses the wonderful Faux Suede Trim (152472) and the lovely wood print from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (152494)

Gather Together

Don’t these cards make you think of crisp autumn nights? I always love the rich color combos for fall and this years’ In Color, Cinnamon Cider and the new Designer Series Papers are a lot of fun.

Enjoy!
