Merriest Moments Christmas card class project 4 Hybrid Embossing Folder

Card number 4 used the Hybrid Embossing Folder to emboss and cut the detailed leaf panel using the Pearlescent Specialty Paper which is just stunning in all its shimmery glory. This is overlaid onto a panel of Evening Evergreen which has been embossed using the Timeworn Type folder which is also new.

The Merriest Moments Stampset is a great set to use, but the Hybrid Embossing Folder and Dies which coordinate with it are amazing. So project #4 included using these wonderful tools. The largest die fits directly over the image INSIDE the Embossing Folder so that you can emboss and cut the image in a single piece. This is exactly what we did using the specialty  Pearlescent Paper.


Sara Douglas, the CEO of stampin' Up! demonstrated these amazing products on her recent Facebook Live which you can see by following this link.

This angle shows the great detail in the embossed background panel. We stamped a sentiment on shimmery white cardstock and cut it out using the stitched rectangle die which comes in the set. To add a little more interest we cut a rectangle to size of the Be Dazzling 6x6 paper which is a free Sale a bration product with a $90 purchase (until the end of September). It just lifts the card to the next level. The large shimmery panel is on dimensionals over the green bacground. The Dazzling rectangle is adhered directly to the space, and the Sentiment Stitched rectangle is popped up on dimensionals too. The little dotty stamp is stamped off for a washed out colour dots texture on the ends of the panel.

In this sample you can see the detail in the kraft which comes from the Hybrid Folder - a lovely random star like background. I added a few additional flowers heat embossed in white on some Kraft cardstock, as well as a few green fronds and leaves.

There are so many fabulous ways to use the dies and I will have more samples in the near future.

I hope you have a creative week and remember,

 post something pretty!"

New In colour 2025-2027 cards and the FABULOUS Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape.

Don't you love it when a single product creates enough elements to decorate a bunch of cards at one time? The Extraordinary Flora Washi tape is one of those products. I created these for my upcoming Catalogue Launch. I put the Washi onto Basic Beige to cut these flowers and love how it coordinates with the Basic Beige card base. To create these cards I trimmed 2.5cm from the front edge and adhered a 3.5cm strip of DSP to the inside of the card to give an added layer. These were easy to put together. Darling Duckling Secret Sea Strawberry Slush Timid Tiger Cloud Clover June 3 - 30 Stampin Up has an amazing offer where you can get 50% off any second product from a suite. So for example if you were to purchase the Extraordinary Flora Die you would be able to buy the tape at 50% off. Please reach out if you want more information on this great deal. You can see all the available suites in my online store. I am loving all the new colours.  I hope you have a creative week and remember,...

Colour INKspiration#178 Happy Hibiscus

Happy Hibiscus is a new set in my collection and I needed to get it out and play with it, so this colour combination seemed like a good place to start.  Isn't the Inspiration picture amazing? I wish I was a better gardener and could grow these gorgeous treasures. But since that is not my skill I am happy to admire nature. Picture credit - https://leahhopephotography.client-gallery.com/.../print... I used the watercolour 100 paper and created two pieces of colour, one a range of dark and light Calypso Coral, and one a mix of Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive.  Once dry I was able to cut out the leaves and tiny flowers. I stamped the 3 large flowers over the watercolour and cut them out using the Hybrid Embossing Folder - It's so easy and super effective as it embosses and cuts in one pass creating some amazing depth for the blossoms. I love the leaf shapes and definition in these dies, just gorgeous. Lots of white seemed like a good way to let the colours shine, so a simple embosse...
