Supplies used to make the cards: 

Happy Hibiscus and Two Toned Paper

Last week I shared with you some cards I created with the Happy Hibiscus bundle.  While making those I was curious as to what it would look like if I embossed the two tone paper with the the hibiscus embossing folder and then sanded it down to expose the white core.   Wowzer I was in love and will definitely be doing this more frequently.   Below is the card I made using that sanding technique on the two tone paper.  Details of what paper was used and the measurements are below.  I hope this inspires you to try out the two tone paper with the Happy Hibiscus embossing folder (or any embossing folder).  

Details:

• Card base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" Thick White card stock
• Layer #1: Crushed Curry Two-Tone paper (found in the Autumn to Remember Scrapbooking Workshop Kit) embossed with the Happy Hibiscus embossing folder
• Layer #2: Night of Navy circles (2 3/4" & 2 1/4") using Spotlight of Nature Dies

The stamped images are using Versa Mark and white embossing powder.  The smaller circle is popped up using foam adhesive sheets.  The embellishments are from the Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned adhesive backed dots.  I sanded the paper with a sanding block I found on Amazon.  Here is the link, sanding block.

Here is a list for all the supplies: 

Sparkling Snowflakes & Sketch Challenge

Yesterday's Teach it Tuesday was a sketch challenge.  What sketch you may ask?  Tammy and I used sketch #8 from the 2024-2025 annual catalog (page 22).   I have a pictures of both the sketch and my card inspired by the sketch.  I used the beautiful stamp set Sparkling Snowflakes in lovely blue hues (my favorite).  I hope you enjoy the card and watching the video to see how I created this card.

Happy Hibiscus & 3 Color Duos

When I ordered the new Happy Hibiscus bundle from Stampin' Up!'s November Online Exclusives release I didn't expect to fall in love with it so quickly!  This is a definite keeper.  I received it on Thursday and by Friday afternoon I had at least 4 cards made with it!  I think it took me all of about 2 - 3 hours to have those cards made, this included looking for a sketch on Pinterest!  Three of the cards are the same layout, a Mojo sketch I found on Pinterest, but different color combinations.  I used what is often referred to as color buddies or in the past Stampin' Up! would call them dynamic duos.  They are two colors from the same color family one being darker than the other.  They are perfect for when you are two step stamping which is the technique used with the Happy Hibiscus.

Here are the measurement details for the card.  I will only list measurements so that you can choose any color you want.  I will also share each card individually with their color combinations listed below them.   Have fun creating, P.S. leave a comment letting me know which color duo you like the best. :) 

Details:

• Card base:  8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
• Layer #1: 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" embossed with embossing folder
• Layer #2: 2" x 4" coordinating card stock
• Layer #3: 2" x 4" white card stock
• Layer #4: 2" circle in white 
• Ribbon: 2 pieces 6 1/2" long
• Embellishments of choice 
• Leaves are a combo of either Granny Apple Green & Old Olive or Garden Green & Granny Apple Green
