Gold Embossing on Vellum

My friend asked me to demonstrate how to heat emboss on vellum. I used gold embossing powder and only enough heat to melt the embossing powder. If you leave the heat on for too long, the vellum will burn. The Stampin' Up heat tool has two settings, which makes it a little easier to keep from burning your vellum. I have a heat tool with only one setting, so I have to be a little more careful while embossing.

This is the final Christmas card I will be making for you this year. I hope you enjoyed my videos and tried making some of these cards. Have a blessed day and have fun stamping.

Lights Aglow Christmas Card #3

I used different colors of glimmer paper along with the Lights Aglow DSP to create this Christmas card. I know that most of these products are retiring or have already sold out, but was confident that many of you have some of them on hand already.

I am trying to use as much of these supplies as I can so I can make room for the new products that are in the January to June 2023 mini catalog. I hope you enjoy my cards and will try making them yourself.

Have a blessed day and have fun stamping!

Lights Aglow Christmas Card #2

I've created another Christmas card for you using the Lights Aglow DSP. I have been making most of my Christmas cards using this DSP and still haven't used up a whole pack of it. Wow! I should have started on my Christmas cards months ago. These cards are easy to make and so beautiful!

I listed all the supplies and dimensions below as well as a link to my YouTube video demonstrating the steps to assemble this card. In order to keep this video short, I did the heat embossing with gold embossing powder off camera. If you have any questions, please leave a comment below this post or on my video and I will answer them for you.

Thank you for watching and have a blessed day!

Lights Aglow Christmas Card

 

     I love making Christmas cards and the Lights Aglow DSP makes it so easy to create them. When you pair it up with the stamps and dies that Stampin' Up has to offer us, you can make some really beautiful cards to send to friends and family. 

    I thought about using gold embossing powder for the sentiments, but decided the Real Red Ink looked stunning. I think I will play around with this layout using some of the other DSP and see what I come up with. Please let me know what you think and what you come up with.

     Be sure to check the retiring list because some of these products are on sale starting December 1, 2022. The retiring products are always while supplies last so don't wait until the last minute to get your order in. Have a blessed day and have fun stamping!

     (I'm really sorry, but the Tree Trimmings Dies are no longer available.)

Brightest Glow Christmas Card

It is way past time to get started on making my Christmas cards! I decided I need to start using up some of my retiring designer series paper, stamp sets, dies, and bling. This card is easy to make and looks very elegant with the Lights Aglow Specialty DSP and the Evening Evergreen Glimmer Paper.

I am sad that the Merriest Moments stamps and dies are retiring, but am confident that Stampin' Up will replace them with something just as beautiful. Have fun stamping and have a blessed day!

Framed Floret Card

You can make this card into a birthday, anniversary, wedding, sympathy, or thank you card just by changing the sentiments. It is simple, elegant, and beautiful.

I die cut the flowers for the front of the card out of the Fitting Florets designer series paper and stamped the ones that are on the inside panel. When I die cut this frame out of a piece of Blushing Bride card stock, I saved the little hearts to use on other cards like this one. I glued some on the front of this card, and then brushed on a little Wink of Stella to add a bit of sparkle to them.

I hope you like this card and will make one for that special person in your life. Have a blessed day and have fun stamping.
