Glow of Harvest Painted Pumpkins Hey Card

September 3, 2026 No Comments

I got the Glow of Harvest designer series paper and am just in love with it and the shimmery finish it has. I then had to buy the Painted Pumpkins stamps, also from Stampin’ Up, to go with it and I used both for this card. I put Wink of Stella over my finished pumpkins to make them match the paper. I am just in love with this card, but I also love anything fall.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Cajun Craze card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Golden Glow card stock (2026 – 2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
Crumb Cake card stock (Stampin’ Up)
White card stock
Glow of Harvest designer series paper (August 2026 Product of the Month Stampin’ Up)
Painted Pumpkins stamp set and dies (Sep-Oct 2026 Mini Catalog Stampin’ Up)
Flowering Meadow stamp set and dies (2026 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
Delightful Wishes (retired Stampin’ Up)
Crumb Cake Ink (Stampin’ Up)
Stampin’ Blends (Stampin’ Up)
- Crumb Cake Light
- Golden Glow Light
- Color Lifter
Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write Marker (retired Stampin’ Up)
Wink of Stella glitter pen (Stampin’ Up)
Scoring board or scoring blade or trimmer
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice
Pop dots

To start this card cut a card base to 5 ½” x 7 ¼” out of Cajun Craze card stock and score at 3”. Cut a second piece to 2 ¾” x 4” and score at ½”. From some Golden Glow card stock cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 5 ¼”, one to 2 ½” x 3 ¼” and a third to 1 ¼” x 5 ¼”. Then take your Glow of Harvest designer series paper pack and find the piece with the twigs and floral sprigs. Cut a piece to 2 ½” x 5” and a second to 1” x 5”. Then from a piece of white card stock cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 5 ¼”.

Take your card base and the second Cajun Craze score piece and adhere the ½” scored section of the smaller piece to the right edge of the back panel centered. Now adhere the 1” x 5” piece of your Glow of Harvest paper to the 1 ¼” x 5 ¼” piece of Golden Glow and then adhere that along the right edge of your back panel, in about 1/8” from the right edge. Now adhere your white piece, butted up to the edge of your Golden Glow, on your back panel.

For the front left panel of your card base adhere the 2 ¾” x 5 ¼” piece of Golden Glow card stock and then the 2 ½” x 5” piece of the Glow of Harvest paper to that. Now take your final piece of Golden Glow paper and adhere it to the front of your flap.

Now take a piece of scrap white card stock and stamp the three pumpkin group in the Painted Pumpkins stamp set that has the tall skinny pumpkin in it in your Crumb Cake ink. Then also the double leaf stamp and the “Hey” greeting, all in Crumb Cake ink. Use the Painted Pumpkin dies to cut out the pumpkins and the leaves. Then with the “Hey” greeting trim down and cut into a banner. Then from the Flowering Meadows stamp set stamp two of the pine sprig. Then take the larger spring stamp and dap in Crumb Cake ink and then use your Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write marker to color over the areas that look like flowers or leaves so your stamping will be two-toned, then huff on your stamp and stamp on your white card stock, and repeat for your second sprig. Use the dies to cut all four of these out. Lastly, from the Delightful Wishes dies cut out a tree branch, trim down to the top of the first sticks for length but use both in your background on the flap.

Now take your three cut out pumpkins and let’s start the coloring. With your Golden Glow Light Stampin’ Blends pen color in each of your pumpkins, then color in a bit of the bottom and top with a second layer for effect. Now take your Color Lifter Stampin’ Blends and color some of the center of each section and give it a minute to pull out some of your color, which gives it all a great effect. Once they are to your liking color over the whole pumpkin with a Wink of Stella pen to add a similar shimmer effect as the designer series paper has.

Now adhere your twigs to the front flap on the left edge, overhanging on the left and the top. Then with pop dots adhere the tall pumpkin in about ¾” from the left and then the shortest pumpkin overlapping the tall pumpkin slightly on the right. Adhere the two leaves to the back of the smallest pumpkin with the leaves overlapping on both pumpkins. Give your “Hey” banner a wave and then adhere under the taller pumpkin angled to the upper right. Now adhere one of each of your sprigs over the twigs on the left side of your tall pumpkin toward the top of your flap and then the other two with pop dots to the lower section of your flap.

For the inside, adhere your last pumpkin in the lower left corner of your white section and then stamp the “I hope your day is fabulous” greeting in Crumb Cake ink in the upper center of the white piece.

I am just in love with this card and these pumpkins. I can’t wait to make more and to be able to give this card to a friend.

Autumn Opulence Double Heart Fold Out Anniversary Card

September 1, 2026 No Comments

I needed an anniversary card for my husband and wanted it to be masculine, so I decided I wanted to use some wood grain paper for some hearts, and it evolved from there. I used paper from the Wood Grain Wonders designer series paper from Stampin’ Up, along with the Autumn Opulence designer series paper for the background with some stamps and dies from Natures Symphony.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Early Expresso card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Wood Grain Wonders designer series paper (March 26 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Autumn Opulence designer series paper (September 26 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Natures Symphony stamp set and dies (March 26 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Timeless Love stamps (retired Stampin’ Up)
Heart dies
Crumb Cake ink (Stampin’ Up)
Cajun Craze ink (Stampin’ Up)
Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write marker (retired Stampin’ Up)
Scoring board or blade from paper trimmer
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice

Take a piece of Early Expresso card stock and cut a piece to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” for your card base. Then also cut two larger size hearts with heart dies, find a size that one aligns with the top of the card base and the second will align with the bottom of the card base and will slightly overlap in the middle. From a piece of Basic Beige cut two hearts the next size down and then two more this size from the Crumb Cake wood grain paper from the Wood Grain Wonder DSP paper. With the wood grain paper also cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”. The with the Autumn Opulence DSP paper find the Early Expresso with Mushrooms paper and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.

Take your Early Expresso card base and your two Early Expresso hearts and adhere one of the hearts in the upper right side adhering about ½” to the card, and then do the same with the second heart in the lower left corner, making sure the point meets with the bottom of your card base so that your card can stand. Use a scoring board or blade for your paper trimmer to score each heart so it folds to the front. Now adhere your 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” wood grain piece to the back panel and then the mushroom paper onto that.

Now take your two wood grain hearts and trim off the excess and adhere to the front of your hearts. Use a label die to cut out a label large enough for the “happy anniversary” greeting from Timeless Love and then stamp in Crumb Cake ink on your label. Now find the leafy branch stamp from Nature’s Symphony stamp set and ink with Crumb Cake ink and then use your Cajun Craze Stampin’ Write marker and color the leaves and then stamp, giving you two color stamping. Adhere the label on your front angled to your liking on the front of your lower heart and then use the die to cut out your leafy branch and adhere to the left side of your label.

For the inside of your card take the two Basic Beige hearts and trim them down to fit on the insides of the hearts and adhere to each heart. Use the “you make my heart smile” greeting from the Timeless Love stamp set and stamp in Crumb Cake ink on the upper heart. Leave the lower heart inside blank for a message.

I fell in love with how this card turned out. I like it so much I made a wedding card for a friend with the same design.

August 25, 2026 No Comments

This pop-up gate fold card made with the Velvet Meadow designer series paper from Stampin’ Up is just adorable and such a surprise when you open the card. The addition of a bit of the Velveteen Assortment flocked pink paper adds a wonderful touch. Then I used the Flowering Meadow stamps and dies to complete it all.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Cloud Cover card stock (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
White card stock
Velveteen Assortment specialty paper (2026 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)

Cloud Cover Ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)

Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice

There is a bunch of cutting to start and then it all just goes together quick. Start with a piece of Cloud Cover card stock for your card base by cutting to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 2 1/8” and 6 3/8” and fold each outside piece in. Now with your paper trimmer cut 1” down from the top on your center panel, and then 1” up from the bottom. Then score each of your 1” sections of the center at 4 1/4″ from the left end. The score the middle center panel at 3 1/8” and 5 3/8” in from the left side.

Now from white card stock cut:

Now it is time to assemble, starting with the four white panels measuring 2” x 5 3/8” and the four floral panel, and here one of each together. With your card base open adhere one panel to the left side and one panel to the right side. Now fold your card closed. With the Cloud Cover Linen ribbon cut two pieces about 9” long and adhere one to the back left side of one of the panels and then adhere to the front left panel, and the do the same for the right side.

Now take the four white panels measuring 7/8” x 2” and the four pink panels and adhere together and then adhere one of each to each side of your top and bottom section of the center. Now adhere the two 7/8” x 3 5/8” white panels and the two Cloud Cover checked panels together and adhere to each side of the middle center panel. Then adhere the larger white piece left to the middle center panel.

From the Flowering Meadows stamp set stamp one of the sprigs in cloud cover ink on a scrap piece of white. Also stamp the “Thanks” greeting in Cloud Cover Ink and cut out as a label and do the same with the “for showing you care” greeting.

Cut out the sprig with the appropriate die and adhere to the lower left corner of the middle center panel.

Violet Dreams Side Stepper Birthday Card

August 22, 2026 No Comments

I am calling this card a Side Stepper card as I cut a base for a stepper card, but it wasn’t the size I wanted and I didn’t want to throw it away, so I figured out another way to use it. This card uses the Violet Dreams designer series paper and the Framed Violets stamps and dies along with the Stitched Rectangle dies, all from Stampin’ Up.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Secret Sea card stock (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
White card stock
Violet Dreams designer series paper (July 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Framed Violets stamp set (July 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Stitched Rectangle dies (retired Stampin’ Up)
Secret Sea Ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
Adhesive-baked Blooms embellishments (July 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Scoring board or scoring blade for paper trimmer
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Secret Sea card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 10 ¼” and score at 1 ¼”, 2 ½”, 4 ¼” and 6”. With the large section as your back, fold the next section in and then accordion fold from there to form your stepper card base. Use the 1 3/8” x 1 ¾” stitched rectangle die to cut another piece of Secret Sea card stock for your front label. From white card stock cut one of each of the following: 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”, 1 5/8” x 5 3/8”, 1 1/8” x 5 3/8” and 1 1/8” x 1 ½”. Then use the 3 1/8” x 4 ½” die to cut two pieces and then the 2” x 3 ¼” to cut another.

With the Violet Dreams designer series paper pack find the Secret Sea polka dot paper and the Secret Sea violets paper. From the polka dot paper cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and another to 1 ½” x 5 ¼”. Then use the 1 ½” x 3” stitched rectangle die to cut another piece. From the violet paper cut a piece to 1” x 5 ¼” and then use the stitched rectangle die measuring 2 ¾” x 4 1/8” to cut another violets piece.

Now let put this together, starting with your card base and the large 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” piece of white card stock and adhere to the back panel and the then adhere the 4” x 5 ¼” polka dot piece to the white piece. Take the 1 5/8” x 5 3/8” white strip and adhere the 1 ½” x 5 ¼” polka dot piece to that. Adhere this to the third panel of your card base, or the front middle section. Then take the 1 1/8” x 5 3/8” white strip and adhere the 1” x 5 ¼” violet piece to it, and then adhere that to the first front panel of your card base.

Now take one of the 3 1/8” x 4 ½” white stitched rectangle pieces and adhere the 2 ¾” x 4 1/8” violet stitched rectangle piece to it. Now close the middle panel and adhere the left about 1” to the middle panel with it centered on all sides. Take the second white 3 1/8” x 4 ½” white piece and adhere to the back center of the back panel, aligned with the center panel so that it doesn’t show. Adhere your small rectangle polka dot piece to the last white rectangle piece and adhere the left side about 1/4” to the front panel, centering over your middle panel.

Take the “happy birthday to you” greeting stamp from the Framed Violets stamp set and stamp on a piece of white piece you cut to 1 1/8” x 1 ½” in Secret Sea ink. Adhere it to the Secret Sea stitched rectangle measuring 1 3/8” x 1 ¾” and then adhere that to your front polka dot panel overhanging about ¾”. Add three of the Fresh Freesia floral embellishments from the Adhesive-backed Blooms embellishments around the front polka dot panel.

For the inside use a birthday greeting stamp of your choice, I use “wishing you the best today and always” greeting stamp which is an old wood block stamp from Stampin’ Up, but I don’t know the name of the set it came from.

For starting out as a mistake I love the way this card turned out and can’t wait to give it to a friend for their birthday.

Take one of the “happy” stickers from the Paper Pumpkin kit and adhere in the upper right corner of the pink grid piece. Take one of the white labels and in Basic Black ink stamp the ‘birthday wishes” greeting. Adhere to a scrap piece of the pink grid paper and trim to fit around your label. Adhere your label slightly over your “happy” to the left side of your pink grid panel.

Take one of the long seven leaf and stem cut-out from your Paper Pumpkin kit, cut off one stem and leaves. Adhere to long leaf and stem piece to the bottom of your pink grid paper. Then pick out seven flowers from your cut-out sheets, all in the small to medium size and use the flower center stickers to give each flower the appropriate size flower center. Adhere each of the flowers to the top of the stems, some with pop dots and the rest directly on the card base.

For the inside of your card adhere the white piece to the back panel. Then adhere the pink grid strip you cut to the bottom of the white section leaving even edges all on three sides. Adhere the flower stem and leaves you cut off to the top of your pink grid piece in the left corner and then adhere the flower with flower center to the top of the steam. With some Basic Black ink stamp the “it’s your day!” greeting in the upper center of your white piece.

What a cute and cheery birthday card.

Fun for Fall Fall Y’all Card

August 15, 2026 No Comments

I have been waiting to get time to use this Fun for Fall stamp and die set from Stampin’ Up and finally got to it now that it is closer to Fall. It is so adorable, I used every die except for the sunflower, but I stamped that on the inside.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Golden Glow card stock (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
Peaceful Pine card stock (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
Choclate Chip card stock (retired Stampin’ Up)
Fun for Fall stamp set and dies (July Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
Choclate Chip Ink (retired Stampin’ Up)
Basic Black ink (Stampin’ Up)
Stampin’ Blends
- Golden Glow Light
- Golden Glow Dark
- Boho Blue Light
- Real Red Light
- Peaceful Pine Light
- Pecan Pie Light
- Smokey Slate Light
Paint Texture 3D Embossing Folder (retired Stampin’ Up) – don’t know the name
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice
Pop dots

From a piece of Basic Beige card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. Cut two more pieces to 4” x 5 ¼”. From Golden Glow card stock cut two pieces to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”. Run one of the 4” x 5 ¼” Basic Beige pieces through with your paint textured 3D embossing folder.

Take your card base and adhere one of the Golden Glow pieces and then your embossed piece to the front.

With your Chocolate Chip ink stamp two bales of hay on Golden Glow card stock and cut both out with the appropriate die. Also take the corn die that cut out 8 pieces at once and cut out one set from the Golden Glow. From your Peaceful Pine card stock cut out two of the corn stalks and adhere the pieces of corn to the back of each stalk. From some Chocolate Chip card stock cut out two fences. Then take a piece of Basic Beige and stamp the scarecrow and then the flag with the “happy fall yall” greeting stamped on it. Cut them out with the appropriate dies. Then with your Basic Black ink stamp one of each of the crows and cut them out with their matching dies.

Now time to color with your Stampin’ Blends. Color each of the crows with the Smokey Slate Light. Color the flag with the Golden Glow Light. For the scarecrow color the jeans and hat in Boho Blue Light. With the Real Red Light color the patches on the jeans and the hat and also the band on the hat and the bandana. With Peaceful Pine light color the grass. With the Golden Glow light color the straw for hands, feet and hair and then color the face in the Golden Glow dark. Use the Pecan Pie light to color the center patch on the jeans and the pole.

Now adhere your stalks of corn to the left side of your card front and then one of the fences over those with one of the crows to the left side of the fence bottom on pop dots and one of the straw bales to the right with pop dots. Adhere the other fence to the right side with the other hay bale using pop dots and top the hay bale with a crow also using pop dots and the other crow on top of one of the fence posts. Adhere the scarecrow to the center between the bales of hay using pop dots and then the flat over the right side hand with pop dots.

For the inside of the card adhere the other Golden Glow piece to the back panel and then the Basic Beige piece to that. Stamp the “hoping your day is wonderfall” greeting in Chocolate Chip ink in the upper center. Then stamp the sunflower and grass clump in the lower left corner. Color the grass with the Peaceful Pine Light Stampin’ Blends and the sunflower petal and center dot with the Golden Glow Light Stampin’ Blends.

Such an adorable card to send to anyone in the fall to wish them well.
