Learn how to create a seasonal frame! Keep reading to view a video tutorial on making this fun fall home decor item.
Stampin’ Up! products lend themselves perfectly to card making, memory keeping projects, treat packages, and even home decor. I created this fall seasonal frame to use as a decoration in my home.
(See this additional post featuring holiday frames. Do you prefer the traditional or whimsical?)
Here are some of the details about this fall-themed frame. Purchased at Ikea, the frame holds a 5 x 7 insert.
The bottom layer of Mango Melody card stock measures 5 x 7.
Next layer of Basic Black card stock measures 4 1/4 x 6 1/4 inches.
The patterned paper — Plaid Tidings — measures 4 x 6. (Note: This 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper is 15 percent off through October 31, 2020.)
Leaves cut with die from Gathered Leaves Dies in coordinating colors of (left to right): Cherry Cobbler, Cinnamon Cider, Mango Melody, and Cajun Craze.
Ribbon is a 7-inch piece of Black Glittered Organdy.
Embellishments are the Holiday Rhinestones.
Think about all of the different holidays where you could create a seasonal frame!

Maui Achievers October 2020 Blog Hop Projects
I love many things about Stampin’ Up! products. I love the color coordination. The card stock matches the ink matches the markers matches the ribbon matches the ribbon. You get the idea! But I also appreciate the product versatility. The stamps, ink, paper, and accessories lend themselves to a variety of projects, in addition to greeting cards and memory keeping. I enjoy creating home decor with my Stampin’ Up! goodies.
Today, I’m sharing two holiday themed framed projects — one a bit more traditional and the other whimsical. Which is your favorite?
The “Let It Snow” frame features the Snowman Season stamp set and the coordinating Snowman Builder Punch (from the Annual Catalog) as well as the Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper embossed with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder (Mini Catalog).

Stampin’ Friends Fall Card Sample
What do you love most about fall? The cooler temperatures? The taste and smell of pumpkin spice? The brilliant fall colors and the changing of the seasons?
For me, it’s the fall foliage. That’s what I miss most about living in the Midwest. You can see some color change here in Arizona, but not as much as the brilliant maples of Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, and Nebraska. (I won’t, however, miss the snow when it falls in the Midwest!)
Today’s card and 3D treat package reflect some of that beautiful fall color.
Two leaves cut in Mango Melody and Cajun Craze card stock
Sentiment from Itty Bitty Greetings stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink and punched with Classic Label Punch
Bow created with Gold Cord (part of the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack)
And, I made a matching treat box with one of Stampin’ Up!’s Gold Mini Pizza Boxes, using many of the same ingredients as the card above. Lots of fun treats fit in this gorgeous box.
Thanks for stopping by today! lease let me know if you have questions about this card or other paper crafting techniques. If you’re not already working with a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, I’d love to help! Enjoy!
