Today I’m sharing a free, fall thank-you card tutorial.
Stampin’ Up!’s Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper ranks as one of my faves right now. I just love all of the foil sheets. Look for it and the Gathered Leaves Dies in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.

Use Glue Dots to adhere the sentiment on top of the leaf, as shown in the photo above.

Today, I’m sharing a Tree Angle Winter Card Sample. Scroll to the end of the post for a how-to video.
As paper crafters, I think we can agree we all love paper — all kinds of paper! It always catches my eye first in the catalog. I especially love Stampin’ Up!’s Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper and the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper. Find them in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.
I wanted to use them both in the same card. I die cut the trees using Stampin’ Up!’s Stitched Triangles Dies
To create a winter scene, I layered the trees on Balmy Blue Card Stock embossed with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. The sentiment comes from the Tree Angle Stamp Set.
In addition, I created my own colored ribbon using the Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends and the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding. This works as both a winter and a holiday card.
