Garden Green: Christmas Tags & More

8 October, 20254 October, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 23 – Garden Green

Today I have some Christmas inspiration with the Christmas Tags & More 6″ x 6″ Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). Now that is a mouthful, but rightly so, as there is so much included in this pack, from paper, printed die cuts & tags!

Here are my cards

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THESE CARDS
No inks, no stamps, just beautiful papers and embellishments. You can easily re-create these in no time with these papers and some cardstock and adhesives you already have at home.

How you can re-create these cards

1. Create the base – 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm and the slimline card is 21cm x 21cm, scorede at 10.5cm

2. Layering – Card 1 – has some Designer paper with a Real Red matt, some Garden Green card with a long piece of Designer paper on top. Two thing Gold Foil strips added either side. Some Christmas Greenery die cuts in Soft Sea Foam and Garden Green with the printed die cut of the red cardinal.
Card 2 – I actually cut 1″ off the side of the card front to have the beautiful strip of DSP showing. The front has some designer paper, but before adhering it, I used a needle and threaded some Linen Thread through the paper and adhered it behind before gluing the paper to the card. This is tied through the top of one of the printed diecut ornaments, added on Dimensionals.

3. Add the sentiments – the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack with the gold foil sentiments on thick white card and adhesive on the back are the perfect sentiments for all your cards this Christmas.

4. Finishing touches – some Dear Dots, Linen Thread bow (card 2) and Gold Shaker Stars (card 3) have been added. Wink of Stella is added to the bird and all the berries on the designer paper.

Many of us also participate in the Heart of Christmas blog hop that goes live every Monday night, where we showcase Christmas inspiration in the lead up to Christmas. We would love you to follow us!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Gorgeous Grape inspiration.

Heart of Christmas 5: Peaceful Garden Craft♦A♦Long

29 September, 202529 September, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2025!
I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Craft♦A♦Long with Peaceful Garden DSP extra 3 cards

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THESE CARDS
I recently took part in an online Craft♦A♦Long run by Stampin’ Up! They showed how to create 6 cards using 1 sheet of Designer Series Paper and the card templates on page 42 of the Sept-Dec Mini catalogue. Today I am showing you cards 4-6! You can see cards 1-3 in a previous post here.

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – Crumb Cake card bases, 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm.

2. Stamp and colour – The sentiments on cards 1 & 2 are stamped in Misty Moonlight ink. Inking tone on tone with Sponge Daubers on the DSP pieces and the card base of card 3.

3. Layering & Texture – Card 1 has the patterned paper and two strips of the reverse pattern. The circle and banner are added on Dimensionals.

Card 2 has two pieces of patterned paper and two strips of Secret Sea Glimmer and a circle of Two-Tone cardstock dry embossed with the Traditional Wreath 3D Embossing Folder. I then used a sanding block to reveal the white inner core for texture.

Card 3 I cut the front so that only a 1″ panel is left. After embossing it with the Traditional Wreath 3D Embossing Folder, I adhered the patterned paper to the panl. A layer of Misty Moonlight is adhered behind the patterned paper and to the back if the panel. When you open the card a piece of Basic White the same size as the patterned paper, is adhered to the centre of the card.

4. Finishing touches – some doves on the first 2 cards are added and card 3 has the Metallic Rub-Ons and the sentiment from the Greetings For You Ephemera Pack. All three cards have some Hues of Blue Flowers.

Many of us also participate in the Colour Creations Instagram hop that goes live every Wednesday night. We showcase one SU colour each week. We would love you to follow us!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Monday for more Chrismas inspiration.

Please enjoy the wonderful inspiration of our next team member, Andrea Sargent.

Flirty Flamingo: Extraordinary Flora Birthday card

24 September, 202524 September, 2025 craftwithkate

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 21 – Flirty Flamingo

This handmade card features the ever so pretty Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and the Traditional Labels dies, found in the Sept-Dec Mini catalogue.

A LITTLE ‘WHY’ ABOUT THIS CARD
A few years back, we had a technique for a floating frame where the die cut pieces sat up on Dimensionals. I took this similar approach to add the die cut pieces around the sentiment labels and it worked out rather well don’t you think?!! This would also make the most beautiful Mother’s Day card with all those flowers.

How you can re-create this card

1. Create the base – a Thick White card base, 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm.

2. Layering – Die cut two labels [Traditional Labels dies] in Flirty Flamingo card and Basic White card. Both are added on Dimenionals to the centre of the card base.

4. Add the sentiment – Stamped in Flirty Flamingo ink onto the white label using the Charming Day stamp set.

6. Finishing touches – the washi tape is added to some Thick Basic White card and die cut. Place Dimensionals onto each piece then add them to the card around thr sentiment. A Baker’s Twine double bow completes the card.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for Fresh Freesia inspiration.

Once I die cut it, I left it in the die, turned it over onto my Silicone Sheet and used the Stylus tip [Take Your Pick Tool] to trace around the inside of the die to create that extra detail. Card 2 has patterned paper with 2 Arches [Everyday Arches dies], Cloud Cover Glimmer circle [Stylish Shapes dies]. Card 3 has the patterned paper and a Cloud Cover circle [Stylish Shapes dies].

I am obsessed with this Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP)

and the Greetings for You Mix and Match Ephemera Pack – this pack is fabulous and has gorgeous gold foiled sentiments on a thicker white card, and can you believe, there are a total of 126 sentiments and they are adhesive-backed!!!

Here are my cards

These cards have a predominant use of Secret Sea to them, but it still works, don’t you think? I love them, especially with the additionak gold foil features.

How you can re-create these cards

1. Create the base – 21cm x 14.9cm, scored @ 10.5cm – one in Thick White and one in Secret Sea.

2. Add Texture – Card 1 has a layer of Secret Sea dry embossed with the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder.

3. Layering – Card 2 has a strip of DSP down the centre. Before adhering it, die cut a circle using the Stylish Shapes dies in the centre. Flip the circle over to reveal the reverse pattern and glue this into the die cut hole. Add narrow strips of Gold Foil on either side.

4. Add the sentiment – Greetings for You Mix and Match Ephemera Pack added on Mini Dimensionals.

5. Finishing touches – Card 1 has gold foil splatter using the Metallic Textures Rub Ons that are so easy to use and a really bright foil. Card 2 has a Gold Foil bow die cut using the Christmas Greenery dies.

Heart of Christmas Week 14: Reindeer Days Fun fold card and scrapbook layouts

4 November, 20243 November, 2024 craftwithkate

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Week 14

Today I feature the the Reindeer Fun bundle and coordinating Reindeer Days DSP (designer paper) in this fun fold design. The two largest circles from the Stylish Shapes dies were used to die cut the circles. The largest one is cut through the card front after the deigner paper was added. The smaller one is a Basic White layer ink blended with Granny Apple Green. The sentiment is stamped in Garden Green ink to bring in the colour from the designer paper.

Reindeer Fun Fun Fold card Week 14 HOC by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

The layers of the Reindeer are Early Espresso, Pecan Pie, Basic Beige and Festive Glimmer for Rudolph’s nose! The wreath is Granny Apple Green with a Real Red bow and swome Iridescent Adhesive-backed Discs.

Reindeer Fun Fun Fold card Week 14 HOC by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024 detail

Once the Basic White insert is added and decorated with deigner paper, the circle feature can be glued through the card front by adding glue only to the right half of the circle. This then forms the pop out feature.

Using the same suite of products and the additional Reindeer Memories Sticker Sheet, I’ve created four scrapbook pages ready to stick my Christmas Day photos into!

This double page layout also has some piecing to them. I traced around a paper plate with a pencil and used my piecing tool in the Take Your Pick Tool and the Piercing Mat to add the holes.

You can see the piercing more on this layout.

Reindeer Memories Scrapbook Page 2 Week 14 HOC by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

These next two pages use a piece of Country Woods DSP as their base. This one has the tab in the top corner for adding journalling an a large photo. Most of those deer have been fussy cut from the Reindeer Days Designer Paper. While recovering from surgery and not being allowed to do too much, this was a great way to pass the time away productively.

Reindeer Memories Scrapbook Page 3 Week 14 HOC by Kate Morgan, Stampin Up Australia 2024

This page I have room for three photos and the top left is for journalling.

Heart of Christmas Week 11: Quilted Woven Star card

14 October, 202414 October, 2024 craftwithkate

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.

Week 11

Today I feature the Take a Bow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) in this fun Quilted Woven Star design. I was inspired by Tamara’s Paper trail and you can watch her Youtube tutorial here.

A Thick Basic White card base with a layer of Basic White dry embossed with the Cute Crotchet 3D Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. A piece of the DSP is added across the card behind the main feature.

The embossed woven star is layered onto some Real Red cardstock and added to the card front on Dimensionals. The sentiment [Peaceful Season stamp set] is stamped directly onto the card in Real Red ink and I love how the embossed pattern shines through. If you don’t like that look, you could stamp the sentiment before dry embossing that layer. A silver Drusy Adhesive-backed Embellishment is added to the centre of the star to finish.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Monday for more Christmas inspiration!
