Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Special Delivery Card using the Jolly Delivery Bundle in the North Pole Delivery Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I made two cards using this Suite Collection. This one was for a swap and the other one, which I will share later, was a quick and easy card using the precut printed images in the DSP!
The Details of My Special Delivery Card
For my card, I thought that the Perennial Postage Dies would be perfect for my mail theme. I knew that I wanted to use the sweet puppy stamp for my card. So, I stamped him and the envelope in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White, and I pulled out my Stampin’ Blends to colour them up.
Next, I stamped the sentiment in black on the Basic White sentiment piece. Then, I stamped the circle stamp in Pool Party on the sentiment piece and on the Pool Party card stock.
Once that was done, I decided on the different pieces of DSP that I wanted to use. I went with the mailboxes for one and the subtle polka dot pattern to place behind my puppy. I figured that the pattern would not detract from my colouring. Then, I added a Poppy Parade mat to each of my pieces.
Finally, I layered my postage pieces and added some matching Dear Dots to finish off my card.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my alternative Thankful Shutter Card using the September 2025 Fall for Toile Paper Pumpkin Kit. This weekend was our Canadian Thanksgiving. So, I thought a tri-fold shutter card would be a fun card to make for it.
The Details of My Thankful Shutter Card
For my fun-fold card, the only additional things that I added were a Very Vanilla card base, Cajun Craze mats and some Timid Tiger leaves using the add on Circle of Seasons Dies. Everything else was from the kit.
Once I followed the template posted below for the measurements of my card, it was time to decorate it.
Top View of My Thankful Shutter Card
I knew that I wanted to use the frame and the Thankful sentiment on the front of my card. The ribbon added a nice element to decorate the panel beneath it. I also knew that I wanted to use the gorgeous toile card for my two largest panels on the front and the sentiment on the inside.
Front of Card Folded To A2 Card Size
For the inside, I stamped the leaves and pumpkins on the white card base pieces in Cajun Craze. To decorate the stamped leaves, I added a die cut Timid Tiger leaf using the Circle of Seasons Dies in each square.
Card Laid Flat
Next, I created my inside sentiment focal point using the circle with the sentiment stamped. I added the fox from the kit and two bronze leaves to balance him out.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Fall for Toile Alternative Cards using the Fall for Toile September 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I made a total of 6 alternative cards, but I’m only sharing 5 here. The other one will be posted soon.
But, first, here are the three cards that the kit makes. Celebrate the harvest season with elegant cards inspired by autumn’s beauty. The Fall for Toile Paper Pumpkin Refill includes printed card bases and coordinating envelopes, precut paper and foil pieces, grosgrain ribbon, and everything else you need to continue crafting upscale cards with rich seasonal details.

The Details of My Fall for Toile Alternative Cards
My Centre-Step Card
For my first alternative card, I used my favourite fun fold and create a centre-step card! I thought this fold would be a fun way to have the leaves extend past the centre panel. I created my focal point using the directions from the kit but just placed it on the centre panel. For the centre panel, I embossed a piece of Cajun Craze with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder to add visual interest without detracting from the focal point.
My Centre-Step Card
Next, I stamped the white printed card base pieces with the leaves just like in the original directions. A piece of the grid printed card base was added at the bottom.

My Double Z-Fold Card
For my second alternative card, I decided to create a double z-fold card. I thought it would be a fun alternative card for this Paper Pumpkin.
My Double Z-Fold Card
So, I cut apart a toile card base to use it for the two layers. For the front, I made it similar to the design used in the kit and matted it with Cajun Craze card stock.
Top View of My Double Z-Fold Card
Since the other z-fold was inside, I kept is simple and just added the toile paper and a Cajun Craze mat to keep it from being too bulky.

Finally, I added a piece of Very Vanilla to the inside on which I stamped a sentiment and leaves.

My Triple Panel Bridge Card
For my next Fall for Toile Alternative Card using Fall for Toile September 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made a triple panel bridge card.
My Triple Panel Bridge Card
So, I took a white printed card base and cut with my Paper Trimmer 1” in on either side of the front to create 3 panels. The Precut Corn Field fit perfectly for my bridge on the front. I added the pumpkins and used the Gift of Fall August 2019 Paper Pumpkin to stamp the “Happy Thanksgiving”.
Middle Panel of My Triple Panel Bridge Card
For the middle panel, I added a piece of the grid printed card base and then mounted the round circle with the stamped the sentiment. A scattering of die cut leaves using the Circle of Seasons Dies added a whimsical feel. Two strips of Cajun Craze embossed with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder were adhered to the card base on either side of the middle panel.
Inside of My Triple Panel Bridge Card
Finally for the inside, I stamped a sentiment from the same Gift of Fall Paper Pumpkin Kit since we have a friend coming for Thanksgiving. The embossed Cajun Craze pieces frame the sentiment perfectly.

My Easel Card
For this alternative card, I decided to create a simple easel card using the same design as the kit but added a score down the front at 2-1/8” to create my fold.
My Easel Card
For the inside, I cut apart an envelope and used a strip from the flap to add interest. The circle with the acorn was popped up to create my stopper.

My Hello Thanksgiving Card
For my last alternative card, I had a number of pieces leftover and decided to use what I could. So, I use the leftover toile card base and added a Cajun Craze border. This I mounted onto a white printed card mat and then onto a Cajun Craze card base.
My Hello Thanksgiving Card
To help anchor the leaves, I die cut a circle using the Circle of Seasons Dies from the leftover envelope. Next, I die cut the “Hello” and added it to the circle. The Happy Thanksgiving was stamped using the same Gift of Fall Paper Pumpkin Kit onto the flag. The acorn circle helped to finish off the sentiment and balance out the one copper leaf I had leftover.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Elegant Thank You Card using the Textured Notes Bundle by Stampin’ Up! This is my second card using this Bundle and I decided to create another elegant black, white and gray card to match the DSP. I will post my other card at the end of this post. This DSP is currently on the Last Chance List. So, get it while you can!
The Details of My Elegant Thank You Card
For my card, I stamped the woven wicker circle in Smokey Slate and punched it out with the 1 ¾” punch. Then, I punched out a piece of the dark leafy DSP with the same punch.
I embossed a piece of Basic Black with the Mini Corrugated Embossing Folder. To add some texture, I took a strip of Smokey Slate and tore it along the edge. The Smokey Slate Two-Tone Cardstock would look awesome here, but I didn’t have it.
Next, I heat embossed in white the sentiment and die cut it out with the long thin die from the Textured Notes Dies. I also used this die to die cut another strip of DSP that I layered behind the sentiment.
Once that was done, I layered a piece of white leafy DSP behind my focal point with a border of Smokey Slate that I die cut with the Textured Notes Dies. All this was layered onto a Basic Black card base.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Neutral Matte Dots in black and white and a bow using the White Woven Ribbon.
Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing the second set of my Farmhouse Florals Alternative Cards using the Floral Farmhouse August 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I made a total of 8 alternatives and thought to split them into 2 posts. So, I decided to group all the typewriter cards together for my second post. I will link the other post at the end.
But, first, here are the three cards that the kit makes. The Farmhouse Florals Paper Pumpkin brings a playful twist to classic blooms, featuring hand-painted flowers arranged in unexpected places. These versatile cards are perfect for thank-you notes or sending sweet messages any time of year. With whimsical designs full of rustic character, each card feels like a little surprise!

My Z-Fold Flip-Flap Card
For my first alternative card of this set, I created a z-fold card with a flip-flap on the front. Since the typewriter was small, I thought a small flip-flap would be a good way to highlight it. I used my Subtles Embossing Folder to emboss the front of the card base and then folded it in half at 2-1/8”.
Once that was time, it was time to build my focal point. I used the Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper for another card and decided to use it again to with a Secret Sea mat to anchor my flip-flap. This DSP goes perfectly with the Kit!
My Z-Fold Flip-Flap Card
For the flip-flap, I used a 3” Lost Lagoon Card base on which I added a piece of Secret Sea that was embossed with the Subtles Folder. On the front, I used the Circle of Seasons Dies for the circle cut from an envelope, the Lost Lagoon “hello” and the Calypso Coral flowers.
For the inside, I stamped a piece of envelope, matted it with Secret Sea and added a strip of the printed envelope for my background. Upon this, I added the typewriter with the stamped Just a note. For a pop of colour, I added the yellow flowers.
Inside Flip-Flap
Next, I added a stamped piece on the inside using scraps from an envelope and a Lost Lagoon mat. I made this the same size at the front so that it was a surprise when it was opened.

The finishing touch was to add some small pearls to the centre of my flowers on the front.

My Love Note Card
For my second alternative card using the Farmhouse Florals Kit, I decided to create a card using one of the typewriter card bases from the kit. The printed card bases allowed me to create 4 alternative cards instead of the 2 cards left in the kit. Have to love when you can make more cards by just adding some card stock to the existing kit!
My Love Note Card
I trimmed down the card base from the kit to fit it onto my Lost Lagoon card base. I added a small border of Secret Sea to the top of my card to balance out the bottom printed border. Next, I added the “hello” from the Circle of Seasons Dies. To give it dimension, I die cut it 3 times and glued them together. I thought adding it to where the paper in the typewriter was, gave it a whimsical touch. I stamped the sentiment and tied it with the twine through the “o” of the “hello”. The only other thing was to add some of the floral clusters pre-cut pieces around the “hello”.

My Pop-Up Lunch Note Card
For my next alternative card using Farmhouse Foral August 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made a Pop-Up Lunch Note Card. I shared this card at the beginning of September when school was starting as something to pop into a lunch bucket for the first day of school. It was a big hit, and I was asked for measurements. So, I thought I would add it to my list of cards.
My Pop-Up Lunch Note Card
This card is very similar to the Flip-Flap of my first card, but this card came first! Lol! I used my Subtles Folder to emboss the Lost Lagoon on the front. Next, I added the die cut circle using scraps from an envelope, the Secret Sea die cut “hello”, the stamped sentiment and yellow flowers with the twine.
Inside of Card
For the inside, I thought a fun pop-up typewriter with an encouraging sentiment from the Sunrise Sailing Stamp Set would be fun! I stamped the sentiment onto a scrap of white envelope and added a scrap of the printed blue envelop to the top. All this was matted onto a piece of Lost Lagoon. Next, I created a very simple mechanism for my typewriter (see measurements below). To add a bit of colour, I used some of the floral pre-cut pieces.

My Centre-Step Card
For my first alternative card, I used my favourite fun fold and create a centre-step card! I thought this fold would be a fun way to use the handbag card base with the precut handbag that extended past the centre panel.
The only extra products that I added were the Lost Lagoon card base which was cut and scored according to the template below and the Calypso Coral “hello” using the Circle of Seasons Dies add-on. I die cut the hello three times and glued them together to give it dimension.
Centre-Step Card
For my card, I only used the front of the handbag card base. First, I cut off the bottom of the card base for the bottom panel. The bottom of the handbag from the card base will be seen, but once the precut handbag is added on top, it will be covered up.
Side View of Centre-Step Card
For the centre panel, I figured out where the centre of the card base was and made my measurements going from the inside out. This allowed the floral image to continue onto the side panels. To line up the flowers I had trim the sides down resulting them in being short So, I added a small square of the envelop at the bottom of my side panels to fill in the space.
The finishing touch was to pop-up the handbag, add the flowers and sentiment with twine just like it the original card.

My Z-Fold Card
For my second alternative card, I decided to create a z-fold card using the printed part of the envelope for the inside panel. So, I scored the front of the Card Base from the Kit in half at 2-1/8” to create my fold. Then, I used the retired Subtles Embossing Folder to add some interest to the front of my card.
My Z-Fold Card
I loved the window precut piece! So, the only thing I added was a die cut Calypso Coral “Hello” with a stamped sentiment tucked in behind it.
Inside of Z-Fold Card
For the inside, I just trimmed off one of the envelope flaps. I found this added interest and colour to the inside of my card.
A bow made with the twine was all it needed for embellishments.

For my next Farmhouse Florals Alternative Card using Farmhouse Foral August 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made a half-front card.
This card was cased from Laura Seki with a few tweaks from me. Loved how easy it was to create this card! First, I used my retired Subtles Embossing fold on the front again. Then, I cut the front in half and adhered the right side down to the inside card base.
My Half-Front Card
For this card, the only extra product that I used was a piece of the printed envelop behind my sentiment.

My Hello Card
For my final Farmhouse Florals Alternative Card, I had the back of one of the card bases leftover. So, I decided to use it and added a Lost Lagoon card base with the last window pre-cut piece.
My Hello Card
The Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper goes perfectly with the colours. So, I added a piece with a Secret Sea mat to help ground my window. I did some stamping to add interest where the top edge of my DSP ended.
As you might have noticed, I love the Circle of Seasons Dies add-on and used the “Hello” again on this card. I die cut it three times and glued them together. It just adds interest without being over the top!
The finishing touch was the stamped sentiment and a bow from the twine.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Faux-Step Hello Card using elements from the Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I have included a downloadable Faux Centre-Step Template at the end of this post that has all the measurements on it.
The Details of My Faux-Step Hello Card
This card was for a swap and since I needed several cards, I had to use different pieces of DSP. Luckily, this paper pack had many beautiful pieces from which to choose. I was able to get two cards from each sheet of DSP.
Two Versions of Card
For my card, I thought a faux-step card would suit the frame from the Gallery Blooms Dies make a pretty focal point almost like a framed piece of art! To make the Basic Beige frame fit onto the easel, I had to trim a little off the top and bottom, but it was so small that it was hardly noticeable. A strip of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper with a Basic Beige mat helped to ground my focal point.
Side View of Card
Next, I used the Damask Designs Embossing Folder to emboss the Basic White piece that ran the length of the card behind the easel. Loved the subtleness of the design without taking away from the focal point! This was matted with Basic Beige card stock to match the frame.
Version 2 of Card
For the sentiment, I stamped it in Mossy Meadow on Basic White card stock and die cut it with the smallest banner from the Stylish Shaped Dies. Then, I tucked in the stamped Basic Beige floral cluster behind the sentiment.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added a scattering of Pressed Flower Motifs to the embossed inside layer and on the easel of my card.
Supplies:
Bundle: Beautiful Motifs Bundle (165206)
Ink: Mossy Meadow (147111), Basic Beige (163806)

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my My Thankful Hydrangea Card using the Lovely Garden Suite Collection which includes the Thankful Garden Bundle, Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper, Starburst Sequins, and Fresh Freesia Faux Velvet Ribbon by Stampin’ Up! I made this pretty split panel card for a swap.
The Details of My My Thankful Hydrangea Card
The Thankful Garden Bundle comes with masks for the flowers, and I have been wanting to give them a try! So, I used my Blending Brushes and Blueberry Bushel Ink to brush ink onto the different masks of the petals. I used a light touch with the first mask and gradually added more ink and pressure as I went creating lots of dimension. I also, did this with Garden Green for the leaves.
Once I had my flower coloured, I made a couple of extras of the petals and die cut/fussy cut some out which I then added to the top of the flower with dimensionals. Where there was white showing on these extra die cut petals, I brushed ink to help blend them in.
Now, it was time to design my card. Since I decided on a split panel card, I used the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder on the front 2 panels to give it interest without taking away from the flower. Next, I added my DSP strip to the inside of my card allowing it to peek out through the gap.
I used the second largest Nested Essentials Die and die cut the DSP for a backdrop to my flower. This also was my anchor between the two front panels. The flower on top also gave this panel extra stability.
For the sentiment, I heat embossed it in white on a scrap of Blueberry Bushel and just trimmed it down with my paper snips to fit.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Starburst Sequins.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Corny Hello Card using the Poppin’ By Bundle which includes the Poppin’ By Stamp Set and Poppin’ By Dies by Stampin’ Up! I had so much fun making a card with this Bundle a while back, that I decided to make this second card. If you are interested in seeing my other card, I will post it at the end as well.
The Details of My Corny Hello Card
For my card, I thought that the Full of Life Designer Series Paper with its bright colour burst wheel would be perfect for my card! It would lead the eye to the popcorn that is popping out of the focal point. So fun! I added a Basic Black mat to my DSP to tie in the sentiment and help contain the explosion of colour. Lol! This DSP is listed in the Last Chance Products and it’s on sale! So, get it while you can!
Next, I decided to use a Granny Apple Green banner from the Birthday Celebration Dies to anchor my focal point. From this, I had my popcorn and stars from the Loose Shaker Elements bursting out!
After I die cut the popcorn, I used a Blending Brush to add ink to the edges to give them dimension. Then, I used my Wink of Stella Brush to splatter some Crushed Curry Ink on them as well. Love the shimmer it added!
For the sentiment, I heat embossed it in white on a scrap of Basic Black. The POP letters were die cut using the Alphabet à la Mode Dies in Crushed Curry and placed on my banner jumbled to look like it was being jostled by the popcorn.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Holographic Resin Dots.
Supplies:
Stamps/Bundles/Dies: Poppin’ By Bundle (165489), Birthday Celebration Dies (164598), Alphabet à la Mode Dies (160750)

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Pop-Up Record Card using the retired For the Record Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!
The Details of My Pop-Up Record Card
This card was for a boy who was turning 17 and loves listening to his records. So, I thought a fun pop-up record player card would be perfect for him! To create my card, I used several retired Stampin’ Up! products that I had in my stash, but it was worth it!
Front of My Card
For the front, I thought the Turtle-y Cute Designer Series Paper would be perfect for my card with the musical notes and bright primary colours. It would also help to balance the darkness of the records.
Close Up of Front of Card
I decided to heat emboss in black the records to give the grooves texture. I made 5 records with three on the front and two on the inside. To match the colours in the DSP, I used matching card stock for the labels of the records along with silver foil. Next, I used Black Matte Dots for the centres of my records. I tried to add a hole with the Take You Pick Tool but found it didn’t look right. So, I added the Dots instead. Once I had my records in place, I used my Paper Snips to cut off the overhanging edges.
The sentiments were heat embossed in white and the Real Red one was die cut out while the Basic Black one was cut on an angle with my Paper Snips.
A scattering of Holographic Resin Dots added to the kitschy feel of my card.
Inside of My Card
For the inside of my card, I used the same DSP especially with the turtles playing instruments. You can just see them peeking out behind the different elements. So fun!
Close Up of Top of Inside Card and Record in Sleeve
For the top part of my card, I used one of my embossed records and tucked it into a vellum sleeve just like you get in a record jacket.
Close Up of Top of Record Player
For the bottom part of my card, I decided to create a pop-up record player. To create the top of the record player, I followed along on a video by C & C Designs as she made it. Here is a link to her video.
Since I wanted it to be on the inside of my card, I created a box pop-up mechanism with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and added the different parts to it. I love that by using brads the record turned, and the record arm moved!
Inside of Card
For the sentiment, I used a piece of Basic White that I die cut with the Textured Notes Dies and placed it beneath my record player.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Pleated Wedding Card using elements from the Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I was asked by my team leaders to present two cards at a virtual play date. One was a simple card and then a stepped-up version. Last week I shared my simplified card and this week I’m sharing my stepped-up version.
The Details of My Pleated Wedding Card
For my stepped-up card, I decided to create a fun fold called a pleat creating a layered card that is sure to Wow! I have included my Pleated Card Template that you can download at the end of this post.
The Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection is perfect for wedding cards! So, I used the remaining piece of DSP from my simplified version to create this card. To step up on the front panel, I tucked behind my sentiment a Mossy Meadow spring of greenery and a Petal Pink floral element.
Side View of Card
For the sentiment, I stamped it in Mossy Meadow on Very Vanilla card stock and then used a strip of DSP to mat it. I added a simple knot of the Petal Pink Scalloped Ribbon which I thought pulled the pink tones from the flowers and matched the Petal Pink card stock.
Next, for the middle panel, I used the Damask Designs Embossing Folder to emboss the Very Vanilla piece which added interest to it. Such a beautiful design!
Middle Panel
For the back panel, I stamped the inside sentiment in Mossy Meadow and then used one of the decorative motif designs to add interest.
Back Panel
As a finishing touch to my card, I added a scattering of Pressed Flower Motifs with two on the front panel and one on the middle panel leading the eye into the card.
Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Simple Wedding Card using elements from the Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I was asked by my team leaders to present two cards at a virtual play date. One was a simple card and then a stepped-up version. So, today, I am sharing my simplified card. My stepped-up version is at the end of this post.
The Details of My Simple Wedding Card
We were asked to pick a theme for our cards, and I went with wedding since it is the season! Plus, we have a wedding coming up.
The Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection is perfect for wedding cards! I love the DSP and what better way to showcase it, then using it to cover the front of a simplified card! So, I used half a sheet of the floral DSP. Since it did not cover the whole inside flap, I used a panel of Mossy Meadow to hide the DSP edge on the inside to make it look finished.
Inside of Card
For the front, I used the Damask Designs Embossing Folder to emboss the Very Vanilla piece which added interest to the front.
For the sentiment, I stamped it in Mossy Meadow on Very Vanilla card stock and then used the leftover strip of DSP to mat it. I added a simple knot of the Petal Pink Scalloped Ribbon which I thought pulled the pink tones from the flowers.
Side View of Card
Since the Beautiful Motifs Dies includes two decorative motif designs that add interest, I decided to use one on the inside of my card.
Close Up of Decorative Motif and Inside Sentiment
As a finishing touch to my card, I added a scattering of Pressed Flower Motifs on the front of my card.
Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! For the First Day of Summer, I am sharing My Summer Sailing Card using the Framed Scenes Bundle and the Sunrise Sailing Bundle by Stampin’ Up!
I was honoured to be asked to present my colouring techniques using Stampin’ Blends to 24 demonstrators at a Stampin’ Up! Play Date that was organized this past weekend by my team leaders. They asked me to demonstrate colouring a scene with Stampin’ Blends that could be used as a Father’s Day card and the Framed Scenes Bundle was perfect for this! I taught things like underpainting, tip-to-tip, colouring die cuts and so much more!
My card was used as my swap for the event, but not everyone participated in the swap. So, I created some simple bookmarks for the others so that they could explore using the Blends.

The Details of My Summer Sailing Card
For my card, I thought it would be fun to use a z-fold so that I could show off the gorgeous sailboat on the Sunrise Sailing Hybrid Embossing Folder.
I knew that I wanted the full sailboat to be on the inside of my card. So, I cut the Balmy Blue card stock and embossed it twice. Once so that the sailboat was centred on one piece of card stock. The second piece of card stock was embossed on the left side of the embossing folder parallel to where the first one was embossed…this allowed for a continuation of the waves from front to back of the card. There was a small amount of boat showing on the front piece, but the focal point covered it.
Top of Z-Fold Card
For my focal point, I placed it off centre to the left of the card so that the embossed boat can be seen peeking out from the inside layer. The Country Woods DSP created a perfect wooden frame around my colouring.
The sentiment was embossed in white and then the end was snipped at an angle.
The small sailboat and the trio of birds were added to the card to create interest and lead the eye inside the card. The finishing touch was three Riverside Irregular Pearls with one on the front and two on the inside panel.
My Colouring Techniques/Tipsfor My Summer Sailing Card
Underpainting
Underpainting is where a third colour is added to create extra depth especially in the shadows. For my colouring, I used Light Smoky Slate along the edges of the lighthouse where the shadows would be the darkest. Once I laid that colour down, I used the Dark Real Red to go over the Smoky Slate and extend it a little bit further into the highlight. Then, I added the Light Real Red and blended it into the dark. If your highlight is too dark, you can use the Color Lifter to lighten the highlight colour.
Tip-To-Tip
Tip-to-tip is where you take two colours that are different and apply one tip of the marker to the other one to transfer some colour.
For the reflection in the water, I used the Colour Lifter and rubbed it against the Dark Real Red marker to pick up a small amount of red. When I first applied the Color Lifter with the red to my image, it was the darkest. So, I used that for the shadows along the water edge and the edges of the lighthouse reflection. As I coloured, the red was used up until it was colourless. This created a highlight in the water to mirror the highlight in the lighthouse. Once, that was done, I just scribbled off on a piece of scrap paper to remove any red from the Color Lifter.

Colouring Die Cuts
One thing that most people don’t think about is colouring your die cuts with Stampin’ Blends to create dimension. For the sail of the boat, I used Light Smoky Slate and my Color Lifter. I coloured Light Smoky Slate triangles at the bottom of the sails to make them look like they are full. Then, I extended a line up the mast from the bottom to the top. Once that was done, I used my Color Lifter to soften the edges along the centre of the sail pushing the ink towards the lines (shadows) that I added.
Adding Texture to Leaves
For my trees, I decided to add texture with dots. First, I coloured the leaves in Light Old Olive and let it dry. It needed it to dry so that the dark would not bleed when added. Then, I used my Dark Old Olive and added random dots to the leaves making sure that where there were shadows, I concentrated my dots. At this point, the dots may look strange, like a polka dotted tree lol, but by going over them with the Light Old Olive next, it blended the edges of the Dark creating texture and dimension.
Blending from Colour to White
The final technique that I taught was how to blend from colour to white such as for the sky. I used Light Balmy Blue and edged my scene where the sky was on the image. Then, I used a flicking motion of my Light Balmy Blue marker from this line out to the white. This flicking allowed the marker to blend easier than if there was a solid line. Once that was done, I used my Colour Lifter and used circular motions along the edge where the blue ended, and the white began. This softened that edge creating a transition from colour to white.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Note of Thanks Card using the Botanical Textures Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I decided to create an elegant grayscale card using the Textured Notes Dies and the Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper for my inspiration.
The Details of My Notes of Thanks Card
My card was for a swap, and I thought a z-fold card would create a fun element with the rectangle dies from the Textured Notes Dies that I layered to create my focal point.
Top of Z-Fold
First, I stamped the leaves from the Textured Noted Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White while keeping in mind the placement of my other elements. I love the different textures of the Distinktive leaves peek out from behind the sentiment!
Next, I heat embossed in white the sentiment and die cut it out with the long thin die from the Textured Notes Dies. I also used this die to die cut another strip of DSP that I layered behind the sentiment.
Once that was done, I used my 1-7/8” punch on a leaf motif from the DSP to match my stamped leaves. I matted this with a 2”” punched Basic Black card stock piece.
To finish my focal point, I layered the different die cut rectangles that matched my colour scheme.
For the card base, I used another leaf motif to match my other leaves for the front of the card. Then, I used the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder for the inside Basic White piece. I loved how it added interest when the card front is closed, but the recipient would be surprised that it completed the inside.
Inside of Card
In order to have a place for the message, I added another Basic White die cut piece to the smaller panel on the inside.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Neutral Matte Dots in black and white to my card front on the stamped piece and to the circle leave DSP.

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Poppin’ Hello Card using the Poppin’ By Bundle which includes the Poppin’ By Stamp Set and Poppin’ By Dies by Stampin’ Up! I needed to make a shoebox swap and thought that this cutie would be perfect…just look at those shoes and glasses! So cute!
The Details of My Poppin’ Hello Card
For my card, I knew that I wanted to have the popcorn guy as my main focal point! So, I pulled out my Crushed Curry and Real Red Stampin’ Write Markers and coloured the rubber stamp with them. Then, I “huffed” with my breath on the stamp to moisten it and reactivated the ink before I stamped him. Such a fun technique that I haven’t done in a while!
Once he was stamped and die cut out, I glued on his shoes and his 3D glasses. I could have left off the lens of the glasses, but I thought a 3D look would be fun!
To create my focal point, I added a die cut Balmy Blue flag from the Birthday Celebration Dies. I stamped “POP” randomly on it in Balmy Blue for a subtle tone-on-tone look.
For the sentiment, I used two Basic Black die cut film strips that I layered behind the Real Red stamped sentiment.
All of this was layered onto the Turtle-y Cute DSP, matted with Crushed Curry and adhered to my Real Red card base.
As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Holographic Resin Dots. Perfect for that 3D look!
