We recently had a virtual group meeting with the Stampin’ Pals, and Pal Beth McCollough at stampingmom.com taught us how to make this cute fun fold, called a Double Step Card. Here’s mine!
How fun, huh? Here is the link to Beth’s blog that will give you the template you need to reproduce this fun layout. https://stampingmom.com/double-step-card-directions-more/. I used a Crumb Cake base, and then utilized the FUN FUN Storybook Gnomes bundle to make my card. Here’s a side view:
The background paper is from the Storybook Gnomes Designer Series papers. The designs include snowflakes and winter backgrounds, as well as some gnome and wildlife scenes. They also include two sheets of various gnomes that will cut out using the dies in the bundles. OH — and mushrooms, too! OR you can stamp and color your own gnomes and then cut them out using the dies. Super CUTE!!
Here are the papers:
I used a Wonderful Snowflake embellishment to back the two gnomes that were cut from the designer series papers. I used a scrap of Bermuda Bay card stock to cut out a Deckled Rectangle die shape, on which I heat embossed a sentiment with white embossing powder. The embellishments are also part of the Suite Collection! Here’s what the inside of the card looks like. Love that little gnome guy!
How do I begin describing these fun gnomes? They are cute for every season, and will become a staple in many craft rooms. I would recommend getting the entire Suite Collection, and do it sooner than later, because these won’t be around forever!
The Storybook Gnomes are a SENSATION, so consider adding them to your stash while they’re still in stock. All the products used to make this card are found below.

Yesterday, I featured my first card using the new Perched in a Tree Bundle, featuring a cute bird, beautiful leaf dies, and a background die that reminds me of our own land, filled with woods and beautiful trails. Here’s my second card, with a flavor of Autumn, which is right around the corner for us in Northern Minnesota.
I started with a Crumb Cake card base, and then ran a panel of Basic White cardstock through my Cut & Emboss Machine with the Aspen Tree Die. YUM! I then added some highlights to the white trees with a Crumb Cake Light Stampin’ Blend marker to add some dimension. I wanted a little texture for the background, so I used the backside of one of the designs from Splendid Day Specialty Designer Series Papers. I cut it just wide enough to cover all the holes, and then adhered it to the back of the died white piece. I adhered the white panel to the card base.
I had a bunch of pre-cut dies from the retired Pierced Blooms dies, so I used one for the sentiment, which I stamped in Soft Suede. Do you love the beautiful metallic leaves? I used three different foils and the dies to make three leaves. I really like the look of the mixed metals.
The dies from this bundle include some embossed leaves, a pretty branch for the bird to sit on, AND the aspen tree framed die, which I adore!
I hope you are seriously considering this bundle, as it is a keeper in my book. The supplies I used to create this card can be found at the bottom of this post.

I paired the beautiful Perched in a Tree bundle, new in the Stampin’ Up! July-December Mini Catalog, with a pre-designed card and envelope from the Texture Chic Suite Collection.
This gorgeous bundle is going to be perfect for early Autumn, Autumn, and then right into the winter and of course, Christmas. That’s how versatile it’s going to be! The stamp set has beautiful sentiments, and the cutest little bird! The dies include some embossed leaves, a pretty branch for the bird to sit on, AND the aspen tree framed die, which I adore! Check it out:
For this card, I chose to stamp the bird and color him with Water Painters using some Grey Granite, Petal Pink, and Mango Melody inks, trying to pick up the colors in the pre-designed card. After cutting out the bird, I popped it onto a doily from the Heart and Home Doilies. I stamped a branch, and accented it with some Gray Granite lines, and placed it under the bird.
The leaves are dies included in this great bundle, and I cut out two leaves from the Silver Foil Specialty Papers, and added them to the branch.
I cut out a rectangle from the Deckled Rectangles Dies. The sentiment was stamped in Gray Granite ink, using one of the pretty sentiments. I finished the card with a few Iridescent Rhinestones. I love the soft colors in this card, and I hope you do, too!
If I were you, I’d grab this bundle while it’s in stock, because it’s selling like crazy! All the supplies needed to create this card can be found at the bottom of this post! My next card will feature the gorgeous aspen tree background die — my favorite!

Some things are great on their own but become epic when they are paired with something else: cereal and milk, toast and butter, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. We may be biased, but our favorite combo is our stamp sets and dies—and that’s what the Perfect Partners promotion is all about!
We created six new dies that coordinate with stamp sets in the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog and the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog. These coordinating dies will only be available during this promotion and will not be offered in any catalog.
These stamp sets and dies are available separately or as a bundle. By buying the bundle, you and your customers will save 10% off the retail price.
Put these wonderful stamp sets and dies together for more papercrafting fun! Here’s a video to show you even more about this promotion: Order now!
Here is a little parade of all the sets available!
Awesome, huh? The biggest thing I can tell you is to ACT NOW — all of these new dies are while supplies last, and the offer ends completely on 30 September!

There is a new stamp set in the July-December Mini Catalog called Soft Seedlings. This set will work from late summer into Autumn, and I just love the watercolor-y, etched look of the set. Here’s my card:
Take a look at this beautiful stamp set:
The card starts with a card base from the Soft Seafoam & Pool Party Cards & Envelopes; unfortunately, this lovely card set is sold out, but you can re-create with a card base of Pool Party, perhaps with a floral pattern stamped on it. I then cut a strip of Soft Sea Foam card stock at 4 1/4″ by 2″. I embossed it with the new Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder. I then adhered that to the card base a little lower than halfway down.
Here’s the new Embossing Folder — think of the possibilities for your Fall holiday crafting!
I cut a panel of Basic White card stock with a die from the Scalloped Contours dies. Using the large leaf stamp, I stamped lightly in the Soft Sea Foam ink. I then took a sponge dauber and daubed lightly with some Pool Party ink from the ink pad. I THEN stamped onto the white panel.
I popped the white panel onto the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then took a scrap of Soft Sea Foam and stamped it with a sentiment from the Soft Seedlings stamp set with Old Olive ink. I snipped diagonal cuts on each side and attached it to the card.
I then added a few retired Adhesive Sequins to the card to add a little bling! I also made the card in a horizontal fashion:
Which do you like better? I hope you enjoyed this first card with a beautiful new stamp set! All the products needed to make this project can be found at the bottom of this post.
