Splendid Autumn DSP~Make It Monday #180

Wow, what a beautiful fall weekend here in St. Louis. I just love when the air is a bit cool and crisp. And now the leaves are beginning to change, so it is beginning to look a lot like fall! I thought I would celebrate this fun season with some of our gorgeous designer series paper. Today I am featuring the Splendid Autumn 6 x 6 paper pack that is featured in the Holiday mini catalog. I hope you enjoy today’s cards and the weather.

More Stack, Slice, Shuffle Cards!

As promised earlier this week I am sharing the three cards I created with the designer series paper from Mondays, Make It Monday tutorial. Click Here if you missed that video. I don’t really have a “Fun Fact” for today, unless you consider my first card mess up as a fun fact. When I was transporting my cut pieces of designer series panels from my video studio back to my craft room, I somehow lost a piece. Does that every happen to you? I looked and looked and for the life of me have no idea where it landed.

So instead of using a third piece of DSP on my first cards, I went paperless! LOL The birthday greeting is from Simply Said and is punched with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.

Maybe it is not a huge mess up, but it certainly is different from the other two cards. Fun Fact: There are no mistakes in stamping, only creative opportunities. One of my stamping friends taught this to me many years ago, thanks Lonnie!

With deepest sympathy and the thank you are from Something Fancy and stamped with Misty Moonlight ink. They are cropped with some of the dies from Something Fancy! These are featured in the 2024-2025 Annual catalog.

This really is a fun technique and I hope you give it a try. Depending on the your paper choice and the way you make your two cuts, you can get some fun and interesting cards. If you missed this or any other of the videos in my Make It Monday series, search categories and select Make It Monday videos or click here! Happy Stamping!

#178 Stack-Slice-Shuffle Make It Monday

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend. What a beautiful weekend here in St. Louis. My heart goes out to all affected by Helene! About 30 years ago our garage and basement flooded. What a mess, but nothing compared to our friends in Florida. I can only imagine the valley of emotions as you begin recovery and clean up. Our prayers are certainly with you.

For those of you more inland, hopefully you had a chance to get into you craft room for a bit of creating. Today, I am excited to share with you the Stack, Slice, and Shuffle technique to create three…..well perhaps six cards. Stay tuned this week to see the other three.

Bye Bye Birdie ~ #177 Make It Monday

Happy Monday everyone. Today I am excited to share three cards for three different occasions using the birdies from the Winterly Tree Tops Bundle feature in the 2024 Holiday Mini Catalog. I used an embossing folder for each card. It is amazing how a simple embossed layer enhances our card projects.

https://youtu.be/15VqyVSLypI

I love how sweet these cards turned out and it is all because of those stinkin’ cute birds! This is definitely a set to add to your stash. It is so versatile I know you will have fun creating cards for any season.

Lifetime of Love Make It Monday #176

Happy Monday. Although it is almost fall, here in St. Louis the weather has been quite warm. The next few weeks are supposed to be in the 90’s which is not really typical for September. Oh, I am not complaining but I do hope we get some good fall weather in October.

I do have to wonder about all the young couples who are planning to get married this month. Chances are when they chose a September date they were not planning on summertime weather. While the weather might not be perfect for a wedding, today, I do have some pretty great wedding/anniversary and or birthday cards for you to create.

Here is a Closer Look at today’s cards!

For today’s cards I used the Lifetime of Love stamp set and coordinating dies, which is featured in the 2024-2025 annual catalog. I hope you enjoyed today’s Make It Monday. Be sure to stop back on Wednesday for our Weekly Wednesday video series. Happy Stamping!
