Stampin’ Up! is looking for a new distributor and hopefully the new product will be as great as our current snips. If you don’t want to take that chance, click here to purchase your paper snips now. Happy Stamping!

Gift and Note Card Holders~Make It Monday#212

Christmas 2025, Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Make it Monday Videos / July 7, 2025

Happy Monday everyone. Did you know that Christmas is less than 6 months away. With the weather in full sun and humidity here in St. Louis, it is hard to think about Christmas, but today’s video is all about gift and note card holders. I am featuring a LAST CHANCE product, Grow In Love! I am using the envelope die from the bundle to create fun holiday gift and note card holders. They are so sweet, I am sure you are going to love them. Even better, they don’t have to be for the holidays! You can use them for birthday gifts, wedding gifts, Mother and Father’s day gifts or that special thank you gift!

#212 Gift and note card holders

Here is a closer look at theses sweet gift and note card holders!

I hope you enjoy creating these gift and note card holders. Any 6 x 6 designer series paper will work for this project. So if it is too early to start thinking about Christmas, I get it. And if you are like my dear friend, Sr. Bernard and myself, then it is never too early to start crafting for Christmas. It is probably a little early for the countdown, but never for the creating! LOL Happy Stamping!

Weekly Wednesday #46 Shades and Hues

Designer Series Paper, Thank You, Weekly Wednesday Videos / March 5, 2025

Hey friends I am back with another Weekly Wednesday video and the designer series paper pack for today’s card is on the Last Chance list. Click Here for the Shades and Hues and other products that are on sale. I know this paper pack will get your creative juices flowing.

To create today’s card, begin with a 4 x 5 -1/4 piece of designer series paper. The color of course is your choice. I choose the Pool Party-Coastal Cabana hues. Cut the panel in portrait position (short side at the top) at 2-1/2. Simply flip the smaller piece so the solid side is showing and attach both pieces to a Basic White card base. See video for details.

I stamped the solid banner from Kiss of Texture with Pool Party ink. The greeting is from Simply Said and stamped with Coastal Cabana. The banner dies from Stylish Shapes crop this banner perfectly-who knew? I love it when everything coordinates. Add a strip of Coastal Cabana CS and a few pearls and you are all set. Love it! This paper pack does all the work,. Be sure to order your pack today as it is on the Last Chance Product list and supplies are limited!

Five Minute Friday Serene Love DSP

Congratulations-Graduation-Retirement, Designer Series Paper, Five Minute Cards / February 28, 2025

Happy Friday everyone. I thought I would start a new series for Fridays called Five Minute Fridays. I am hoping these super quick cards will inspire you to create something beautiful to share. I will keep the Fun Fact Fridays alive as well. So on Fridays you will either see a Five Minute card or a Fun Fact Friday. Either way, we will all be ready to celebrate Fridays, right?

Today’s Five Minute card is created using the Serene Love 12 x 12 Designer Series paper. This is a great paper pack and it is in the Last Chance Products sections while supplies last. Click here to see all the Last Chance Products!

I started with a Night of Navy card base. I chose the Night of Navy stripes with the Night of Navy floral on the reverse side. I first cut a 2 x 5-1/4 strip and then a 3 x 5 -1/4 strip. I used the 2″ strip for the stripes and the 3″ for the flowers. See sample above. I then added a 1/2″ x 5-1/4 inch strip of Night of Navy cardstock.

The greeting is from So Sincere and is stamped with Night of Navy ink. I cropped the greeting using the Labeled with Love die. Just add your bling of choice and you are all set. Of course you can take it a step further and color some of the flowers. Totally your call. Happy Stamping!
