The Joy Of Noel Bundle is retiring, one of my favorite “last chance” products. It isn’t discounted, but you only have until Jan 3 to purchase it, or when it sells out.
I began today’s “clean & simple” card with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I embossed it with the Merry Melody Embossing Folder. Stampin’ Up! told us this is the music to Joy To The World, one of my favorite holiday songs.
After embossing the card front, I used the largest, square, Stylish Shapes Die to cut two squares from Winter Meadow Designer Paper.
NOEL Music
Next, I used the “NOEL” Die, in the Joy Of Noel Dies Set, to cut the letters in one of the Winter Meadow Designer Paper squares. Then, I glued the squares together, cut the letters from a darker piece of Winter Meadow DSP, and glued the letters in the holes.
This paper is so pretty, and I’m happy to say it is a “carry-over,” and is not retiring. You can see all of the patterns in my Product List below.
Prior to attaching “NOEL” to the card front with Dimensionals, I attached two pine branches and berries to the back of the square. The branches were cut with a Joy of Noel Die from Thick Basic White Cardstock. The berries were fussy cut from Winter Meadow DSP, and the only reason this card wasn’t “quick & easy.”
I was inspired by TGIF.

For today’s card, I have to show you my inspiration, first. I fell in love with it, and wanted to create something very similar.
I began with the wood background, cut from All About Autumn Designer Paper, with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die. This was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Floral bouquet on wood
The bouquet was created with the Translucent Florals Stamps, on Basic White Cardstock, in five colors of ink: Flirty Flamingo (large flower), Mossy Meadow (leaves), small flowers (Crushed Curry and Gorgeous Grape), and Garden Green (sprigs).
After stamping, I cut the bouquet parts with Translucent Florals Dies, glued them together, and attached them to the card front with Dimensionals. The center of the large flower was cut from Pumpkin Pie Cardstock.
“Thanks” is from the Biggest Wishes Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black Ink, directly on the All About Autumn Designer Paper.

Today’s card is all about the bears; Polar Bears from Beary Christmas Designer Paper (September-December 2023 Mini Catalog).
I used a Christmas Classics Die, and a Stylish Shapes Die to cut them from the designer paper. After cutting Mama and Baby Bear, I placed them on Dimensionals.
Polar Bears
A second, Christmas Classics Die was used to cut Beary Christmas DSP in a Paw Print. Don’t You love the beautiful edge surrounding the square?
The background is also Beary Christmas Designer Paper, 5 1/4″ X 4″, glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Prior to gluing, I stamped “joy” in VersaMark, sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder, and set it with the Heat Tool.
“Joy” is from the Brightest Glow Stamp Set, perfect for the space, and the emotion the bears were feeling.
For a little sparkle, I added three Tinsel Gems.

Today’s card began with Tweet from the Fluffiest Friends Stamp Set. After stamping her in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, I used her Fluffiest Friends Die for cutting. Then, Tweet asked to be colored with Boho Blue Stampin’ Blends, and Pecan Pie for her beak.
Tweet
Tweet wanted to be surrounded with beautiful Moody Mauve branches, and chose one from the Nature’s Prints Stamp Set. She has been flying around the new online exclusives, and and discovered a wonderful arch in Garden Meadows, so I used that to cut the Basic White Cardstock.
For the background, Tweet wanted a Pecan Pie, wood pattern, from Meandering Meadows Designer Paper. She said I could make it look even better by embossing it with the Timber Embossing Folder. And, she chose a Boho Blue card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, to match her feathers.
Tweet loves sending birthday cards, and found the perfect “happy birthday!” in the Garden Meadows Stamp Set. I stamped it in Pecan Pie Ink, and used a Sending Die for cutting. Tweet was very happy to perch on the greeting, but she had one, last request. She asked for three, beautiful, Iridescent Rhinestones to make it sparkle.

Happy Falloween! My Halloween cards have been mailed, so today you get pretty Fall leaves. I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. This was layered with Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die.
“Falloween”
Prior to attaching the layer with Dimensionals, I embossed it with the Leaf Fall Embossing Folder.
Next, the leaves were cut with one die (solid) from the Aspen Trees Die Set, and three dies (open) from the Chic Die Set. I used red and golden portions of Masterfully Made Designer Paper to give the leaves a variety of color and texture. Then, I glued the “open” leaves along the diagonal line, created with the embossing folder, and attached the “solid” leaves with Dimensionals.
“Thank you” is from the Inked & Tiled Stamp Set, stamped in Pecan Pie Ink.
The final step was attaching the layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, with Dimensionals.

Before I show you today’s card, I want you to see my inspiration. Isn’t it interesting?
I created an owl with the Bird’s Eye View Stamp Set, stamping him in Night Of Navy Ink on Winter Meadow Designer Paper. Don’t you think the glasses make him look wise? I also stamped the books, used Paper Snips for fussy cutting, and added a little color with a Boho Blue Stampin’ Blend.
“WOO-HOO!”
The background was created with Winter Meadow Designer Paper, 3 3/8″ X 4 7/8″, glued to Gold Foil Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″, glued to a Smoky Slate card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Prior to gluing, I used Labels Aglow Dies to cut the stars at the top, and the circle by the owl.
“Woo-hoo!” is from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set, stamped in VersaMark, sprinkled with Gold Embossing Powder, and set with a Heat Tool.
After gluing the owl, books, and circle together, I attached them with Dimensionals, and my card was complete.
