It’s still unusually warm…but winter is coming and you know us card makers are always working a season ahead. I love that this card works for the holidays as well as for winter birthdays (like mine in January!). The Winter Adventures Bundle has so many great elements: a ribbon, snowshoes, snowflakes and trees. A great all round set you gotta add to your order from our Online Exclusives offering.
Thanks for stopping by!
This is a unique card layout to wow your intended recipient. How to do it the easy way: with our amazing Party Banners Dies! I folded a usual card base of 4 ¼” x 1” in half and I positioned one of the large dies just above the fold so it cuts out the banner shape at the bottom. With the layering aspect of these dies, it was super easy to cut the Secret Seat cardstock and patterned paper layers. The patterned paper is Painted Collage from a new bundle of products out with our November Online Exclusives. Love how this turned out!
For our Shoebox Swaps, we rarely land on the same stamp set or bundle. And yet this happened! I used some of other great leaves from the Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil dies bundle which Wendy didn't use on her card shown earlier this week and yet two very different looking autumn cards. I can't tell you how much I love this bundle except to show you 4 of the 5 different leaves you get in the package. Bonus: there are 3 of each shape making this a breeze to die cut in one pass through the die cutting machine. We popped these individual leaves up on dimensionals and added a hot foiled greeting from the Sweetly Sentimental set. That rounds out our October Shoebox cards - hope you got some inspiration from seeing them.
Jane used this fab bundle she won at our September 27 team event, Scalloped Christmas Cheer. The paper and the colours are so bright and cheery for this time of year. Tip: Add some pizzazz to your die cut your labels by embossing them afterwards to give it all some extra texture. I love this card that you shared with us at the October Shoebox Swap, Jane!
When I saw this santa hat stamp set in the latest catalogue, I was really curious how people would use it to its fullest! I'm tickled at this cute card Stacey prepared for us to make at the recent Shoebox Swap. We stamped it all over a Basic White layer then embossed it. Another bit of stamping and fussy cutting out atop a vellum square really topped this off. The greeting fits on the brim of the hat which is so darn cute.
