When I saw the colors for this week’s Global Design Project, I knew I’d be making a Halloween card.

BOO!
To spell the word “BOO,” I stamped a wreath, from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set, in Cajun Craze Ink on Basic White Cardstock, two times. Then, I used its Country Wreaths Die for cutting.
Next, I used the “B” from the Alphabet a la Mode Die Set to cut the letter from Cajun Craze Cardstock. To give the “B” dimension, I adhered the cardstock to an Adhesive Foam Sheet, before running the die through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

The background is Basic White Cardstock, 4 1/2″ X 2 1/2″, layered on Zoo Crew Designer Paper, 1/8″ larger, giving a 1/16″ border. This was glued to a Basic Black card base. Prior to gluing, I stamped two spiders in Memento Black Ink, and I gave the card base “bubbled” texture with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder.
The “scary” spider is from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set, and I stamped a third one, which I cut with its Country Wreaths Die, and glued it off the edge.
The Pumpkin Pie bow was cut with a Country Wreaths Die from a retired scrap of designer paper. Don’t you love this bow?

Here are the colors you can use to design your card. We’d love to see it hanging in our gallery!

For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE (copy and selectively edit) Wilma De Koate’s beautiful “birthday” card.
See how our designers “cased” Wilma, then join in the fun, and add your design to our gallery.

I began with A Granny Apple Green card base, exactly like Wilma, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then I layered it with Bubble Bath Cardstock, cut with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die, and embossed with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder.
The top layer is Basic White Cardstock, also cut with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die, and placed on an angle as shown.

Translucent Leaves
Prior to gluing the layers, I used Bubble Bath Ink to stamp small flowers from the Translucent Florals Stamp Set. I also added black dots by “flicking” the brush end against the cap of a Basic Black Stampin’ Blend.
Next, I created with focal point by using Garden Green Ink to stamp leaves, also from the Translucent Florals Stamp Set, on Basic White Cardstock. After stamping, I used its Translucent Floral Die for cutting. I cut a second branch of leaves from Vellum Basics, and added a bow of Bubble Bath Ribbon.

The sentiment, “thank you” is from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set. I stamped it in VersaMark on Basic Black Cardstock, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and set it with the Heat Tool. The last step was cutting it with its Sentimental Silhouettes Die, and attaching it with Dimensionals.

This week’s Global Design Project is a theme: “outdoors.” See how our designers used the theme, then create your design, and hang it in our gallery.

Plein-air painting is French for painting outdoors, and the Crafting With You Bundle is perfect for depicting this experience on a card.
For this week’s theme, I chose a scene from the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Paper. Bundle up!

Painting Outdoors
This paper is an “online exclusive,” and includes a fabulous painting of a red fox, 2 1/4″ X 1 3/4″, perfect for a card-sized easel. The easel is one of 21 dies in the Crafting With You Die Set.
I cut the easel from a wood grain pattern of the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP, backed it with cardstock for thickness, and placed it on Dimensionals.

The background is One Horse Open Sleigh DSP, 5″ X 3 3/4″, layered on Pool Party Cardstock that is 1/8″ larger, giving the DSP a 1/16″ border. This was glued to a Gray Granite card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Prior to gluing, I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso Ink. “You inspire me” is one of 13 stamps in the Crafting With You Stamp Set. This is a great set for all of your crafty friends, and if you order the bundle, you’ll get a 10% savings! You can see all of the stamps and dies in my Product List below.

To accentuate the sentiment, I added three 2022-2024 In Color Matte Dots.
The envelope (see in first photo) was decorated with another pattern of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. I cut the DSP, 5 3/4″ X 2 1/2″, glued it to the flap, and using the flap as a template, I cut along the edge.

This week’s Global Design Project is a fun sketch challenge. Since the 2023 Sept-Dec Mini Catalog is going live in two days, I was excited to show a sneak peek of the Joy Of Noel Bundle with Winter Meadow Designer Paper.
As I was in the midst of creating, I was looking at my options, and couldn’t help but make two cards. Do you have a favorite?

Winter Meadow Noel
Both designs have a Pretty Peacock card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. And, both cards have a layer, 4″ X 5 1/4″, embossed with the Snowflake Sky Embossing Folder. One has Basic White Cardstock, and the other has Winter Meadow Designer Paper.

“NOEL” is from the Joy Of Noel Bundle. I stamped the letters, from the stamp set, in Pretty Peacock Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used the NOEL die for cutting. For the second design, I used the NOEL die for cutting from Winter Meadow Designer Paper. Both were given Dimension by using Foam Adhesive Sheets.

The four strips were cut with the second smallest Country Corner Die, both patterns of Winter Meadow Designer Paper. Isn’t this paper gorgeous?

Be inspired by our designers creations, then create your own design and hang it in our gallery.

This week’s Global Design Project is a “rainbow” color challenge, and it’s always fun creating “rainbow” cards. I began by choosing six, rainbow colors of ink: Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight Granny Apple Green, Tahitian Tide, and Highland Heather.

Rainbows & Hearts
Next, I used Sponge Daubers with each color of ink, smoothing the color onto Basic White Cardstock, large enough to accommodate the heart die. The heart is a Radiating Stitches Die, an Online Exclusive, which is linked to my store in my Product List below. After cutting the hearts, I placed four hearts on Mini Dimensionals, and left two to be glued flat.

Once I decided the placement of the hearts, I stamped four rainbows, from the Just My Type Stamp Set, in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″. I also stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, and glued the layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. The sentiment, “I hope your day is filled with sunshine and rainbows,” is wonderful, isn’t it?

See how our designers used the rainbow colors, then create your own card, and hang it in our gallery.

For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE (copy and selectively edit) Emma Goddard’s beautiful “hello” card.
See how our designers “cased” Emma, then join in the fun, and add your design to our gallery.

I wanted to make a Christmas card, using the word “JOY,” with a wreath taking the place of “O.” A Country Wreaths Die was used to cut More Dazzle Specialty Paper, and Alphabet a La Mode Dies were used to cut the “J” and “Y” from the same paper. To give the letters dimension, I used Foam Adhesive Sheets.

Cottage Wreaths JOY
For the background, I stamped the wreath, from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set, in Soft Sea Foam Ink on Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″. This was glued to a Mossy Meadow card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

The pretty, paper bow is also from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set. I stamped it in Mossy Meadow Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used its Country Wreaths Die for cutting, and glued it in place.
