Welcome to Team Stamp It’s Blog Hop. Thanks so much for joining us! This month, we feature cards and projects showcasing a Thanksgiving and fall theme. Be sure to to visit all of the participating blogs. Leave a comment on each for your chance to win the Pop-Up Pals Kit.
When I think of Thanksgiving and fall, I think of the gorgeous fall colors as the leaves change. I have vivid memories of this while growing up in North Dakota and living in Minnesota and Nebraska. With today’s card, I try to re-create that with the baby wipe technique. Be sure to watch the video below as I demonstrate how to achieve this fun look.
In addition, I’ll show you how I created the large leaf image that I stamped with. In summary, I used the large maple leaf die cut from Stampin’ Up!’s Gathering Moments Dies to make my own “stamp” with adhesive foam sheets.

Today’s card has a lot going on! First, it features a new-to-me technique–the split die technique. I was inspired by Heidi Collins (On Y Go Stamping). Second, this technique makes two cards. Third, this card uses strips of my current favorite patterned paper–Gathering Together 12 x 12 Specialty Designer Series Paper. And fourth, it uses a sneak peek of a product available to customers beginning November 4, 2025–Lasting Linen Photopolymer Stamp Set. (It may be hard to see in the photo, but it’s the background behind the maple leaf.)

It’s not a secret that my favorite patterned-paper-of-the-moment is Stampin’ Up!s Gathering Together 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. I love the foil accents and the rich fall colors. And, I love that I get a chance to use my Cajun Craze card stock.
I made these for a team gathering with different papers and belly bands, adorned with a Gold Foil leaf embossed with the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder.
I’ve used this Designer Series Paper in a number of projects throughout the last month.

In today’s project, I use the paper to create a fun gift bag. (Project inspired by the Plaid Poodle.)

Card making doesn’t have to be difficult! Stampin’ Up! offers a lot of ways to make creating easy. With today’s card, I feature the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder, a folder with a coordinating die that cuts ten sentiments with one crank of the die cut machine. Have these sentiments on hand for whenever you need them. Or, make a quick stack of cards, all ready to send out.
For the focal piece, the leaf, I used a leftover leaf (Gathering Moments Dies), from this card I created earlier in the week. Click here to see that post and a coordinating video.
