I love this embossed autumn card and how easy it was to put together. Heat embossing is a technique that I love for adding easy elegance and wow to my projects, but I haven’t used it a lot recently, so I pulled it out for this card. (If you want to learn more about embossing, you’ll want to read to the end of this post…).
Super easy card because it uses one sheet of Designer Series Paper. It’s the Beauty of the Earth Paper, and the one side of the sheet is a blue watercoloured wash effect, while the other side is a multicoloured leaf pattern. If you want to be even thriftier in your crafting then I was, you can actually just use one piece that is 3.75″ x 5″ and cut a centre strip from it, then flip it over to reveal the other side’s design. I however, was slightly lazier, and just cut another strip and adhered it on top.
I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink, then heat embossed with gold embossing powder (available in the Metallics Embossing Powders set). I added some die cut leaves from the Forever Flourishing Dies for some extra texture and interest.
If you like the look of this embossed autumn card and want to learn more about embossing for your paper crafting, you’ll want to be on the lookout for my Black Friday special! My Embossing 101 and Beyond online class is coming out of the vault for 4 days only! Friday 26 November to Monday 29 November, you’ll be able to purchase lifetime access to the class for just $5 Canadian. While some of the product used in the technique videos may have retired, the actual techniques can be used with whatever embossing supplies you have on hand (and you’ll see a couple of crafting “hacks” as well).
Starting today, until the end of the month, Stampin’ Up! Canada’s Demonstrator Starter Kit is on special! As always, you’ll select $165 worth of Stampin’ Up! crafting products of your choice and will receive enough business supplies so that you can start your business right away – but for the rest of this month, you’ll pay only $100CAD. That’s a saving of $35 off the regular starter kit price (which was already a bargain!).
You can get more information at yamstamps.com/join or message me. I’m hosting an Online Information Evening on Thursday 14 November at 7pm Eastern – RSVP and I’ll send you the Zoom link. You can hear about what it means to be a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator with my group, The “Eh” Team, and get your questions answered. If you can’t make it that evening, I’m happy to set up a chat with you at a mutually convenient time.
Stampin’ Up! has a new collection available starting tomorrow! A few items are previews – they’ll be available in the January-June Mini Catalogue, and a few are exclusive to this order period only.
The Eden’s Garden stamp set and Eden Dies and the discounted bundle that includes both are early releases from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalogue. Exclusive to the promotion period are the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper, the Ever Eden Cotton Paper (both of these are 12″ x 12″) and the Garden Gems, which are adhesive backed round and marquise shaped gems.
You’ll be able to grab these items starting tomorrow, 2 November 2021 until 3 January 2022. Please note that the exclusive promotion items (the papers and the gems) will be available only while supplies last. You can shop online 24/7 in the YamStamps Stampin’ Up! Canada Store by going to the shortcut https://yamstamps.com/shop (or clicking on the link). You can message me if you’d like assistance placing your order or would like to pay by etransfer.
Woohoo! There’s a new Mini Catalogue available today PLUS it’s Sale-a-Bration again!
First things first….the July-December Mini Catalogue is live! No, you didn’t miss anything – this catalogue’s start date was pushed back for a month. Stampin’ Up! made the decision to delay the start to allow for product and shipping slow downs due to that global pandemic that is ongoing… You can check out the digital version of the July-December Mini Catalogue here; shortcut is https://yamstamps.com/jd21 Despite best planning, there are still a few items that are not yet in the SU warehouses – the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack and Cards & Envelopes, and the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper. This impacts their associated Suites – you know, the “Easy” button that uses one code to get all the products in one suite. For the time being, you won’t be able to order the Gingerbread & Peppermint Suite, nor the Blackberry Beauty Suite. You WILL be able to order the other items in the suite without issue, though, it just means a lot more typing! LOL. (Or message me with your order, and I will do all the entering for you!!).
Next up…it’s time to Sale-a-Brate again! It’s the Summer Sequel! August 3 – September 30, when you place a $60CAD product order (before shipping/taxes), you’ll get to pick a free Sale-a-Bration item! There’s a couple of items that are available at the $120CAD level too. There’s a few items that won’t go on back order – when they’re gone, they’re gone. These are the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper, Sheep Dies and Summer Shadows Dies – so if these have caught your eye, be sure to redeem for these ASAP. You can see the digital version of the Sale-a-Bration Catalogue here – shortcut is https://yamstamps.com/summerSAB21
If you purchase a Demonstrator Starter Kit from today to the end of September, you’ll get “the usual” deal of $165 worth of product of your choice for $135. The starter kit also includes a past Paper Pumpkin kit, plus business basics (catalogues/order forms etc) to get you going. During Sale-a-Bration, you’ll also be able to select a July-December Mini Catalogue product bundle of your choice for free! You can find out more information about purchasing a Starter Kit and becoming part of my Demonstrator Group here.
As always, the shortcut to shop is https://yamstamps.com/shop from anywhere in Canada. If you need assistance placing an order, want to pay for your order with an etransfer, or want more information about becoming a demonstrator with my group, you can email me and I’d be glad to help. In the meantime – Happy Sale-a-Bration!
