Be sure to leave a comment on each with the hashtag #stampitcontest. You could win the Christmas Whimsy All-Inclusive Card Kit.
Gingham Cottage for Fall
Quick and easy is often the answer when it comes to card making. It helps to make a stack of the same card and have them on hand when the need arises. I think today’s card fits that criteria well.
To create:
stamp leaf from Season of Chic stamp set with So Saffron ink on a So Saffron card base
stamp on a leaf from the Leaf Label and Amber Gem Pack (You may have missed these in the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. The leaf comes in a package of 25 precut Kraft leaves and 50 gems.)
finish with a bow created with the Gold Shimmer Ribbon.
I also created a matching gift bag.
Thanks so much for visiting today and hopping along with Team Stamp It. Remember to visit all of the blogs. The list is below. Comment with the #hashtag #stampitcontest for a chance to win a Christmas Whimsy Kit.
Sometimes, you need a quick gift box for a last-minute gift. Keep some of Stampin’ Up!’s Kraft Gift Boxes on hand. (Find them on page 140 of Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.) You receive ten of them for $10. During SaleABration — now through August 31, 2002, receive a package free with a $50 order.
They’re very easy to assemble. Watch the video below for a quick visual.
They’re large enough to hold full-size cards and envelopes as well as other small gifts. And, you can decorate them any way you want to match the gift or the holiday for which you’re giving. Or, don’t decorate them at all; they have a peekaboo window to showcase what’s inside. Adorn with a ribbon and a gift tag, and you’re good to go!

Stampin’ Up!’s Season of Chic Bundle attracted my attention because it contains images and dies that can be used for all of the seasons. This makes it versatile–something I can use year round. It includes seashells for summer, leaves for fall, snowflakes for winter, and flowers for spring. Find it on pages 98 and 99 of Stampiin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
The bundle includes the Season of Chic stamp set and the Chic Dies. The bundled price includes a 10 percent discount. And, the Texture Chic 12 x 12 Designer Series is a must-have item. I love the gold highlights in the sheets.
I grabbed this bundle from the shelf to create a birthday for a friend who loves the beach. The seashells images work perfectly as does the sentiment. I also added Petal Pink panel embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder.
With just a little bit of extra time to play, I created the two additional cards below with different elements from the suite.
The card above features a flower image, stamped and die cut.
And, this final card uses the “swoosh” element. It reminds me of a similar image from the Work of Art stamp set. I loved using it for backgrounds and tried it here. The Designer Series Paper above comes from the Design a Daydream 12 x 12 package. (Earn it free as a hostess. Ask me how!)
