Free-Standing Christmas Fun Fold with Artful Amaryllis

By | October 13, 2024

Stampin' Up! Artful Amaryllis | Just Stamp Free Standing Fun Fold

Make a stunning Christmas card that the recipient can display through the holiday season with the beautiful Artful Amaryllis bundle offered in the Holiday Mini Catalog.

The Artful Amaryllis Stamp Set has a lush amaryllis image plus sentiments that you can use for Christmas, thanks, and thinking of you. Stamp the open line-art flower and color it with your favorite hues and coloring tools. Or stamp the line-art flower, then stamp it with the filler images for a solid and dimensional look. Even though amaryllis is traditionally seen as a Christmas flower, you can use this one all year long. Just use different colors for the flower for different times of year.

During this week’s Facebook Live eepisode of the 12 Weeks of Christmas, I shared how to make this specialty fun fold card.

4 Ways to Use Hybrid Embossing Folder Featuring Seaside Wishes Bundle

By | August 16, 2024

Stampin' Up! Seaside Wishes | Just Stamp Thank You Card

Hybrid embossing folders offer lots of options. Use the embossing folder and coordinating dies separately or together to create texture and cut shapes for handmade projects. In this week’s Facebook LIVE class, I shared four ways to use the folder, coordinating dies and even the stamp images in the collection to create handmade cards. Plus, I used a go-to card template to jumpstart my creativity.

Check out my video demonstrating four ways to use the hybrid embossing folder. In the video, I share the tools and materials needed to make this under-the-sea card with the colorful, living sea stars. You can click below or click over to the YouTube Just Stamp YouTube channel and view. While you’re there, be sure to subscribe and set up notifications to be alerted of upcoming video tutorials.

Today’s card started with a go-to card template found on page 22 of the Stampin’ Up! annual catalog. It’s a great resource.

Page 22 Card Template #12

Recognize it? I changed the orientation to landscape. That’s the beauty of a card template — it doesn’t need to be exact. Here’s another example using this template.

4 Ways to Use the Hybrid Embossing Folder

Simple Soft Embossing

The easiest technique to achieve. Simply slip a piece of cardstock inside the 3D fold and pass through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine for a stunning texturized background or focal point.

Stampin' Up! Hybrid Embossing Folder | Simple Embossing

Emboss and Die Cut

Cut texturized shapes and objects to add die cuts to projects. Achieve this technique by inserting the coordinating die inside the folder atop the piece of cardstock.

Stampin' Up! Hybrid Embossing Folder | Texturized and Cut

Brayer, Texturize and Cut

Add ink to the inside surface of the folder with the Stampin’ Brayer. Then insert the coordinating die atop the cardstock.

Stamp, Texturize, Cut

Crank up the color by using the coordinating stamp in any choice of ink color on any color of cardstock. Insert the coordinating die into the folder, align the stamped cardstock and pass through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine.

Retro Vibes with Stampin’ Up!’s Tune In and Go-To Card Template

By | June 17, 2024

Stampin' Up! Tune In | Just Stamp Technicolor News Flash

TV antennae. Technicolor swatches. And the classic design of the entertainment box. These elements add up to retro, good time vibes, which is the gist of  Stampin’ Up!’s Tune In Bundle. It’s the featured bundle in this month’s free card class.

Today’s card starts with a go-to card template found on page 22 of the Stampin’ Up! annual catalog. It’s a great resource.

I chose a black and white color scheme, reminiscent of TVs back in the day. It sets the stage for the color spectrum and the classic TV to be the stars of the screen. Love the nostalgic style.
