If you’re like me, you love Stampin’ Up!’s coordination. Not only the color coordination, but also how the stamp sets and dies and stamp sets and punches work so well together.
That’s why the Layering Leaves stamp set and Bough Punch appeal to me. They complement each other, and make crafting not only easy, but successful.
Layering Leaves Card Samples
In today’s post, I share handmade greeting card samples using the Layering Leaves stamp set and Bough Punch. The card featured at the top of the post uses the coordinating colors of Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, and Night of Navy with Crumb Cake. I pulled the colors used in the Masterfully Made 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. I love taking color inspiration from Stampin’ Up!’s gorgeous patterned papers.
Here are a few measurements to help you get started. Be sure to watch the video below to view step-by-step directions for putting this card together.
Crumb Cake layer measuring 5″ x 3 3/4″ partially embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder
Melon Mambo card stock measuring 5 1/4″ x 4″
Night of Navy base measuring 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
Masterfully Made DSP measuring 3/4″ x 3 3/4″
Vellum cut with Stylish Shapes Dies
Linen Thread
Glossy Dots Assortment
The above card uses the same elements, but in a different format.
And, here’s another one using heat embossing for the sentiment and the Nested Labels Dies.

When you’re a card maker, you don’t need a reason to get into your craft room and make a card. But when there’s a holiday, any holiday, us creators get into gear. And we even send cards to celebrate the Fourth of July. I found it fun to try to make an Independence Day card with the supplies I have on hand.

Night of Navy Base: 7 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 3 1/2″
Night of Navy Cardstock (front): 3″ x 5 1/4″ and (inside) 5 1/4″ x 1/2″

Circle Sayings Bundle
Moody Mauve and Bubble Bath Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads

I created a variety of these bags as a gift for those attending a recent event. The bags hold three of Stampin’ Up!’s notecards and envelopes.
Give the bag a little fold, add a belly band, and you create a fun pouch. I added some Stampin’ Dimensionals for a little gift as well as a sweet treat in the bag below.
Some of the Stampin’ Up! products used, in addition to the treat bags, include:
