Using the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder to make a quick card!
Have you tried any of Stampin’ Up!’s Hybrid Embossing Folders? We used theStars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder (includes the Embossing Folder and coordinating Dies) to create a quick and easy holiday-ish card during Stampers Club this month.
I love that with a Hybrid Embossing Folder you can die cut and emboss at the same time! The die that cuts out the large star actually also cuts out the two smaller stars on either side. Since we were using this on a cardfront, I chose to add a layer with one of the sheets from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack, and only emboss/die cut the large star. I embossed the Starry Sky Cardstock like regular, and then used a smaller piece of Silver Foil and positioned it over the largest star, along with the die. Ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and ended up with a silver embossed star that I just adhered in place on the cardfront. A bit of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon and called it done!
I am partial to blues, so I pulled them out for this card – Starry Sky Cardstock for the embossed layer, and Orchid Oasis Cardstock (a bluey-purple) for the card itself. Must make use of these 2022-2024 In Colors before they retire at the end of May 2024! (Plus it seemed appropriate to use Starry Sky for a Stars at Night project).
The Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder will be retiring at the end of the September-December Mini Catalogue (or whenever supplies are exhausted) so if you’ve had your eye on this one, you won’t want to miss out!

There is also a list of products that will be carried over and still available for purchase. Some of the items will be available as an online product (so not appearing in a printed publication) while others may return in a future Annual Catalogue or Mini Catalogue.

Sharing a scrapbook page that I created after a visit to Juno Beach with the Burlington Teen Tour Band for the 75th Anniversary of DDay. They’ve been invited back for the 80th Anniversary in 2024 and I hope to go along with them once more to photograph their experiences. It was such a meaningful experience for all involved!
Remember – this is ANNUAL Catalogue product (not September-December Mini Catalogue). When you go to the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store during the sales period, the discount will automatically be applied when you add any sales product to your order – this includes a Demonstrator Starter Kit Order!
It’s a fantastic opportunity to replenish your stash with these core consumables. You can shop online during the sale, or if you’d like assistance placing your order, you can email me and I’ll place the order for you.
I will have a group order going in, so if you are able to do porch pickup in Burlington ON and have a smaller order, email me and I’ll add it so that everyone gets 11% shipping.
