This Perfectly Plaid Pastel Trees Christmas Card came about after seeing some Christmas cards using non-traditional colors, even pastels! I thought I would see what I could do with a pastel color scheme for my card!
The card base is Blushing Bride Cardstock with a layer of Soft Sea Foam Cardstock. I tried putting another layer of Balmy Blue but it looked like too much. I left it at just the pink and green.
The main paper I used is Shimmery White Cardstock. This is my favorite paper ever! It has just the slightest shimmer to it if you look closely. It stamps so well and even takes watercoloring better than regular Whisper White Cardstock. I just love it!
The three trees stamped on the Shimmery White are from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set. This stamp set was carried over from last year and I’m glad because it has so many possibilities, not to mention the Pine Tree Punch which coordinates with the trees. I could also have punched out the trees with that punch and made them a little more 3D. The trees are stamped in Blushing Bride Ink, Balmy Blue Ink, and Soft Sea Foam Ink.
The greeting is also stamped in Soft Sea Foam Ink. It is also in the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set as are some other ones I could have used. I just stamped this on a scrap strip in my Shimmery White Cardstock and then punched the ends with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch. It is popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Then to add a little something extra, I added some Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes. These are little snowflake sequins that have adhesive so they are easy to place and stick on a card! No glue required!
Another thing I could have done, instead of the snowflakes, was to put some Rhinestones or perhaps theChampagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels on the trees. If I would have stamped the trees up just a little bit higher I think that would have worked. Or maybe I could have stamped some small snowflakes. So many different things you can do with stamping!
You could change the color scheme of this card and use traditional red and green colors and see how different it would look. Here is another card I made with this set, in red and green colors, and using all three styles of trees. Or as I mentioned, use the Pine Tree Punch to punch out the trees and pop them up on Dimensionals instead of the greeting. Just play until you are satisfied!
It’s time to get busy on Christmas cards and this ‘Tis The Season Candy Cane Christmas Card is an easy one! Mainly I wanted to just play with the ‘Tis the Season Designer Paper as I did the other day and see what else I could come up with.
In this case, I assumed I would use only this pattern of paper on half the card, but I cut the full size for the layer and I wanted to use it just like that! So simple! The card base is Real Red. I thought Cherry Cobbler looked a little dark, but it is a coordinating color with these papers.
I stamped the greeting in Real Red Ink from the Tag Buffet Stamp Set. I wasn’t sure how I wanted to cut it out, so I just browsed through my sets of dies and settled on this one in the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I wanted a layer but instead of a die-cut I took the easy way out and just measured a plain rectangle to layer behind it. Sometimes you just don’t have the right size die!
On the inside of the card, I added a layer of Whisper White stamped with a greeting from the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set. All of the “Itty Bitty” stamp sets are great ones to have because you can always find a greeting stamp in one of them!
If you need any supplies for making Christmas cards, there is still time, but I suggest ordering as soon as possible, certainly by December 8th as recommended by Stampin’ Up!

It’s time to be making some Christmas treats to have on hand or to gift as extra little gifts or stocking stuffers. Here is one you can make in minutes using a couple of punches, paper, and ribbon…..plus the candy!
I always have some Clear Tiny Treat Boxes on hand because you can make something like this little Christmas treat very quickly and easily. Just put whatever candy treat you have inside or even a very small gift and then decorate.
To make my little treat box really quick and easy, I just punched out a green Christmas tree from the ‘Tis The Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper using the Pine Tree Punch. I was only going to put that one tree on the front of the box, but I liked some of the red paper too so I thought, “Why not have two red trees also?”. I punched out two red trees and placed them on each side behind the green tree. Next, I thought it would be nice to have a piece of Gold Foil behind the trees, so I punched a circle that would fit with the 2″ Circle Punch.
For a little bling, I of course had to add a few of the Holiday Rhinestone Jewels just to the green plaid tree. The final step was to just tie a Real Red 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon around the box. Not only is it decorative for the top of the box but it also keeps the lid closed! You could also add a greeting on the box or tie it on to the ribbon, perhaps from the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set.
These Clear Tiny Treat Boxes keep you from having to look up measurements to make a little box! They store flat and all you have to do is unfold it, crease on the score lines, and make it into the box. Be sure to put a package on your next order!
For this card, the Tis the Season Tri Panel Christmas Card, I got the idea to copy myself! One of my fall cards was this same basic design and turned out pretty well. This is a great design for using up scraps of designer paper if you have them, or you can even stamp different panels for a card like this.
I used the ‘Tis the Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper for this card. It’s a great assortment of Christmas papers with generic and traditional designs. The 6″ x 6″ size is nice for making cards so you don’t have to work with the large designer paper.
The card base is Real Red, although Cherry Cobbler is also a coordinating color with the DSP. The Gold Foil is cut at 5″ x 3 3/4″ underneath the panels. Each panel of DSP is cut at 1 1/2″ x 3 1/2″. You can vary that size depending on if you make the foil layer a little larger or if you want the panels to touch on the sides rather than let the gold foil show through in between. Just try to adhere the panels evenly spaced and if necessary, you can trim the foil layer if it is uneven on one side or the other. You could also use another color of cardstock instead of foil if you like.
The greeting is stamped from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set in Real Red Ink on Whisper White and die cut with one of the Layering Ovals. Then a scalloped oval die was used for the Gold Foil layer.
The trees were punched with the Pine Tree Punch. I used a green pattern in the ‘Tis The Season Designer Paper. For a little bling, I added some red and green Holiday Rhinestone Jewels. To look a little like a star on top of the tree, I used a gold Gilded Gem at the top of each tree. I popped up the greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals, but then glued down the trees flat so there would be room for the rhinestones and gems as far as height. Something to think about if you are mailing cards with embellishments. You might also enclose a piece of paper towel or any piece of scrap computer paper, maybe crimped, to cover and give protection to the embellishments. If you have a really fancy card, you should consider mailing it in a special padded envelope.
This is a pretty easy card to make and you can make all kinds with different pieces of paper. I want to try some more with this particular paper and design and see what else I can come up with! Here is my fall card I made with the beautiful Gilded Autumn Designer Paper.
Get out your designer paper for the holidays and even some non-holiday paper because you might find patterns you can use just fine on Christmas cards. It’s time to be making cards and mailing them early! Hope my ‘Tis the Season Tri-Panel Christmas Card gives you some inspiration for making your own cards!
I knew the November 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit was going to be cute just based on photos of the box and my expectations were met! Here are the Paper Pumpkin Jolly Gingerbread Projects that I have made “so far”! I still have lots of materials and other ideas I want to make with this kit!
The two single houses you see at the bottom of the photo above are the projects the kit has designed. They are gift card holders and I’m sure you could insert cash or a check inside for a gift as well. There are also cute matching envelopes! The kit has enough supplies to make 15 gift card holders, but if you do not need that many gift card or money holders you can use the supplies to make other cards or anything else you want! That’s why after each month’s Paper Pumpkin kit arrives are subscribers’ home, you can always find alternative ideas online for ways to use the supplies!
The two cards at the top of the photo above are ideas I got from another Demonstrator online, but I changed it up a little bit. I used two different embossing folders on Mint Macaron Cardstock, the Woodland Embossing Folder, and the Diamond Embossing Folder for the backgrounds. I added some “snow” with Whisper White Cardstock with a torn edge. To get the single house, I cut the gift card holder pieces with a front and back of a house in half to use just the front of the house and added the stamping, greeting, and embellishments to the front portion of the house. Then this house was adhered to the card front. So easy to make a card with the kit supplies!
The middle piece is simply a tag I made with the “back” of the house I said I cut off in the paragraph above. That piece didn’t have a door printed on it, so I used the “punched out” piece from the white house front and colored it with a Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blend Marker, and added a Gilded Gem for the door knob! I just punched a hole in the top for some Braided Linen Trim. We always need more gift tags!
The idea for these cards came from Debbie Henderson, if I remember correctly, that I saw online and loved. I changed the background a little bit by embossing the Balmy Blue background with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. On the second card, I stamped snowflakes from the Snowman Season Stamp Set. They are stamped off once to be lighter. The gift card holder was cut in half again so I could just use the house front. The little candy archway is cut out from a white piece that would be stamped and adhered to the front of the house, but of course you can use the pieces however you like! What is really brilliant, is using the pieces punched out from those white pieces to make the open doorway, which are used for fence posts on these cards!! This is what I love so much about stamping….the creativity and ideas that other stampers (usually not me!) come up with!
And my favorite thing about this kit are these adhesive-backed “candies” to use as embellishments on the projects! These are some of the cutest stick-on things I have seen! They are showcased very well on this card on the fence and house!
These little gingerbread treat holders are what I thought was probably coming in the kit, but it took other Demonstrators to figure out how to make a little box for the bottom and these house pieces wrapped around it. To make the box inside, a piece of cardstock is cut at 4 1/4″ x 4 3/8″, scored at 1″ on all sides and then snips made on two opposite sides on those score lines up to the 1″ score line. Then you need two of the house pieces to fold around the box, using the Tear & Tape included in the kit. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the box inside as I folded the gingerbread house around it. Now they are ready for treats or gifts inside wrapped up in a cello bag or tissue paper! So cute!
After a lot of online Christmas shopping yesterday, I finally had time to work on my Paper Pumpkin November 2020 kit! My kit always arrives later than most everyone else’s, I don’t know what the post office is doing with it! But patience paid off, it’s a fun kit to create with! There are more ideas than I probably have time or supplies to use! This holiday Paper Pumpkin kit is a good way to get into the Christmas spirit by making some cards and projects we will be needing for the holidays!
The next Paper Pumpkin Kit is the “Beary Comforting” Kit, a kit to make a dozen cards to send to loved ones and friends who might need some encouragement and comfort during this difficult time. I’m guessing that most people would save these cards to send in January or February after the holidays. Be sure to sign up by the deadline or make sure your account is activated by December 10th to get this kit, which will be mailed out mid-December.
It’s going to be time to wrap gifts sooner than we want to realize, so here is an idea – this Gold Mini Pizza Box With Christmas Poinsettia. Just put a treat inside or a small gift and decorate the box exactly how you want!
It’s a good idea to keep a package of these Gold Mini Pizza Boxes on hand. They are pretty already being gold so you can just add a little decoration and you’ll have a gorgeous gift box ready to go. These boxes are food safe so you can add a cookie or two inside, some Christmas fudge or candy, a set of 3″ x 3″ notecards or some other gift. You get 8 mini pizza boxes in a package!
I got the inspiration for this gift box after seeing a Christmas card online (not handmade) although I ended up changing it a little. The card had gold, dark blue, and red poinsettias with gold trim. It also had swirly things in the background in gold. So I thought I would try that red, blue, and gold color scheme as a gift box!
The blue I chose is Night of Navy although I started with Misty Moonlight. Really, either would be fine. I liked the slightly darker shade. The poinsettia is made with Real Red Cardstock and the Poinsettia Dies. I used two layers of the medium size flower and the smallest flower for the center. Just using the largest poinsettia flower in the center of this box would be pretty also, but I wanted room for gold trim of some kind. I ended up using Gold Foil for a few leaves and the sprigs in the die set. The flower is popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals®. It’s a good idea to use your fingers to sort of fold up the petals and leaves a little bit to give them some dimension.
The greeting is stamped with the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set and cut out with the Classic Label Punch. The greeting is popped up with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
There are so many things you can do with these Gold Mini Pizza Boxes! They can be decorated for any occasion. You can use them for a birthday treat or gift or take a few cookies or candy to your neighbor. You could do some stamping on cardstock for the top and tie a ribbon around the box. Or add a belly band with a greeting.
Order some of these boxes or the plain white Mini Pizza Boxes to have on hand. You will have fun decorating them for many occasions, especially Christmas!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and think of all your blessings even in this difficult year. Next year will be better!Eat all the turkey and pie that you want!

Time for a fun turkey for Thanksgiving and I came up with the Ribbon Turkey For Thanksgiving! I actually kind of copied myself, looking back through my blog at Thanksgiving ideas. I found an idea from 2012 for a turkey ornament I made with ribbon for feathers.
I made this but didn’t make anything out of it! You could tie a string on top and make it an ornament or decoration or attach it to a folded piece of cardstock and make it a place card! When I was a kid and we were at my grandma’s house, I always wanted to make place cards for the dinner table! I guess this year most people won’t need too many place cards! Sadly. Or you could put it on the front of a Thanksgiving card.
I used a variety of punches and whatever I came up with to make this turkey. The turkey body is the 2 1/4″ Circle Punch. The head is a small circle die in the Layering Circles Dies. I used Soft Suede Cardstock. The wattle….you won’t guess this….is a petal in Real Red punched from the Perennial Flower Punch. The beak is just cut from Crushed Curry. The eyes are punched with the retired Owl Punch. Loved that punch! The turkey feet are the stick arms from the Snowman Builder Punch.
Instead of paper turkey feathers, I just grabbed a bunch of my ribbons that I thought would work! You can use whatever you have or maybe even a mixture of paper and ribbon would be fun! I put strips of Stampin’ Seal+ on the back of the head and body and sometimes on the ribbon as I adhered it and then just cut non-measured lengths of ribbon and laid it down on the adhesive. If you are going to use it as an ornament or decoration, you might want to cover the backside of adhered ribbon. I punched out two more circles to match the body of Soft Suede and adhered them with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the back of the turkey to make a cleaner presentation!
Just a fun little project you could even make with kids for Thanksgiving! If you don’t want to use your new ribbon, get out some older retired ribbon from your stash! Just have fun making a Ribbon Turkey For Thanksgiving!
I’ve had these carriers for a while and kept forgetting to use them, but here is one for you today, my Poinsettia Decorated Mini Coffee Carrier! These will be fun to make for neighbor gifts or treats or extra presents for your family. You can use them in so many different ways for so many different treats!
Fill the cups with cocoa mix, or maybe just one cup and then on the other side put cello bags of marshmallows and maybe a peppermint stirrer. Put any kind of candy or maybe small cookies inside the cups. Fill cello bags with a treat and insert those inside the cup but leave off the lid so the recipient will see the pretty treat bag tied with a ribbon and a tag. Decorate the Mini Coffee Carrier but put in gifts of small candles or bath products or some other kind of product or container. The ideas are endless!
This is what the Mini Coffee Carrier starts out like! It is folded flat so you don’t have to worry about storage space. Just start sticking your hands in there to open it up and then when it gets loosened up, crease and fold on all the score lines to make your carrier. Play around with those tabs on the bottom and make sure you have them assembled so they are strong to hold the contents of the carrier. You get 8 kraft carriers for only $5!
The coffee cups are separate if you would like those. Order the Mini Coffee Cups and get eight cups and lids and they are food safe and can hold a beverage up to 200 degrees F.
Here I started decorating my carrier with paper in the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper. You can wrap a strip of paper around as far as it will go or you can do as I did, just cut paper to fit each side of the carrier. To leave a small margin of the carrier showing, I cut my designer paper at 2 1/8″ x 5 1/2″ for the front and back and 2 1/8″ x 2 5/8″ for each end. I tried to match the pattern but it wasn’t that important with this paper, but make sure you check your patterns so one isn’t upside down or completely doesn’t match and look good.
To decorate my carrier, I cut out a large poinsettia from one of the papers and die cut the leaves with the Poinsettia Dies. I used Garden Green Cardstock. For the berry sprigs, I die cut those from Whisper White Cardstock and then colored the berries with the Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blend and Dark Soft Suede for the stems. The flower and leaves are popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals® and the sprigs adhered with tiny bits of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the berries.
I actually love this tag that I came up with! The Garden Green tag is punched with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. The Whisper White layer is stamped with a Happy Holidays greeting in thePoinsettia Petals Stamp Set. Then I stamped the berry sprig in Crumb Cake ink to make a lighter interesting background. The poinsettia is hand-cut from the designer paper. The tag is tied on with the Real Red Sheer Ribbon.
There are dies to order to make wrappers to go around the cups for decoration. If you don’t order these, you may have to cut up a cup for a template to make your paper fit around the cup. The dies are called Warm Wrap Dies and they will make your life easier! Since I don’t own them, I punched a strip of Real Red with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch and adhered that to the cup, then added another hand-cut small poinsettia flower to each label.
It’s time to be thinking about making some holiday gifts! Really, you could use these any time of year! All you have to do is decorate for any occasion.
It’s so easy to make a small gift bag for the holidays like this Christmastime Is Here Designer Paper Gift Bag. You would be surprised! I didn’t realize this designer paper was still available in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store from last year! It’s so beautiful with rich colors so you might want to see if you still have some that you purchased last year and stock up with some more or pick up some for the first time.
This gift bag is made with the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper. Last year it was a special release or something and I used most of my paper but I had placed it in with my retired paper. Something told me to check, and I found it still in the Online Store! It certainly is beautiful paper to use for Christmas! I’m glad it is still around!
All you need to make a gift bag like this one is a 6″ x 12″ piece of designer paper or cardstock. Score at 4″, 5 3/4″, 9 3/4″, and 11 1/2″. Turn the paper so the short edge is at the top and score at 1 3/4″. This will make the bottom flaps of the bag. Cut those short bottom tabs up to the 1 3/4″ score line. Cut off the little 1/2″ tab on the bottom. Fold on all the score lines and crease well with the Bone Folder.
Adhere the tab on the end to the other side to assemble the bag. The adhere the flaps on the bottom. You can use whichever adhesive you like. I used Stampin’ Seal+, but you could also use Multipurpose Liquid Glue if you like a little “wiggle room” to get things lined up. You will be able to see how the bag goes together as you start to assemble it.
After you have the bag made, you can decorate it however you like. I chose to cut out by hand the pretty roses and leaves from another sheet of the designer paper. I was going to add a greeting but I liked just the flowers on the front of the gift bag.
I added handles made with two pieces of ribbon. The ribbon is the Gold 3/8″ Metallic Edge Ribbon, one of my favorites. I just attached them with a Mini Glue Dot on the ends and adhered inside the bag.
All you need to do is add a small gift or treat and your gift is ready to go!
Check out the Christmastime Is Here Designer Paper in the Online Store and add it to your Christmas papers to use!

Use the So Many Snowflakes Die to make this So Many Snowflakes Die-Cut Holiday Card and let the sparkles show through the snowflake! I realized I hadn’t used my glimmer paper enough so I tried it out on this card with the see-through die-cut negative.
The card base is Balmy Blue with a layer of Whisper White. I die cut the largest snowflake from the So Many Snowflakes Dies in the Whisper White. Since I didn’t purchase the Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set (even Demonstrators can’t have everything!), I used some snowflakes in the Snowman Season Stamp Set to stamp some random snowflakes in Balmy Blue Ink on the front of the card.
For the sparkle under the die-cut, I adhered a piece of Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper. It’s always difficult to photograph sparkle and shine, but it looks very pretty under there! Then this Whisper White layer with the Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper underneath adhered to the Balmy Blue Cardstock card base.
The greeting is from the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set. It is stamped in Balmy Blue Ink and punched with the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch. I simply cut a little strip of Balmy Blue Cardstock to layer underneath the greeting to help it stand out a little and popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals®. For a final touch, I added two Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes. These are so fun to play with and easy to use with the adhesive already on them!
I think this would actually be an easy Christmas card to duplicate if you wanted several to send. It involves the die-cutting and punching the greeting, but you could make a simpler greeting by cutting a rectangle or using another die rather than the punch. Do it assembly-line fashion like I described yesterday in my blog post!
When you are going to make a batch of Christmas cards, whether it’s a few or a hundred, plan to make them “assembly-line style”. I learned early on not to make one whole card, then another whole card, and then another. Instead, gather all your supplies and do each step for ALL the cards. Whether you are cutting or stamping or adding embellishments, you will do it faster if you do it over and over again. And if you are making a whole pile of cards, you almost get “muscle memory” for doing each step and that makes it even easier!
I am copying a card Snowflake Splendor Merry Christmas Card, I already made awhile back (in August!!) but liked it a lot. Since I like to make a lot of different cards from all the ideas I see in the catalogs and online, I’m making many different designs and maybe five copies of each one. The only problem is that when I go to send them, I have to choose which card to send to which person! You might choose one card design and make 50 cards the same. I’ve done that, also. Then everyone just gets the same card! And your muscle-memory gets really good at making the cards!
The first step, as you see in the top photo is to cut all your paper and score the card base as well. Cut the card base, layers, designer paper, scrap pieces….everything you need to make the card. Make little piles of the same pieces so you don’t get them mixed up.
Now amazingly, this time I remembered to use the Adhesive Sheets before cutting out the snowflakes! This makes it easier to adhere them because they will already have adhesive on all the little areas from the Adhesive Sheets. No need to add tiny drops of glue! The snowflakes are made with the So Many Snowflakes Dies.
For this card, I diecut all the white snowflakes out of the Whisper White layer I was going to use under the designer paper. Shhh! Don’t tell anybody! They’ll never know!
Adhere the Whisper White layer to the Highland Heather card base. And since I used the Adhesive Sheets on the back so I could diecut the snowflakes, I don’t even have to use glue, just adhere the Whisper White to the card. Do all the cards like this.
Adhere all the die-cut snowflakes to all the pieces of the watercolor pattern in the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper. The Take Your Pick tool helps to separate the backing of the adhesive sheets from the snowflake.
When you have stamping to do making Christmas cards, it’s really useful to have the Stamparatus! Get the words or whatever images lined up perfectly and then stamp with the Stamparatus! If the inked image is incomplete, you can just reink the stamp and stamp again as long as you don’t move the paper!
Finish assembling your cards by adding some Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels. Inside the card, adhere the smaller designer paper snowflakes you already cut out and stamp the greeting using the Stamparatus on another layer of Whisper White, also from the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set. Then you have a stack of Christmas cards all finished!! Make them assembly-line style!
