Today’s More Color Monday’s color challenge features the Peaceful Garden Suite Collection of products highlighting the Misty Moonlight, Secret Sea and Cloud Cover blue tones.

I will also be teaching you the layering circles technique which is a cool layering technique!

Measurements:
BASE: Misty Moonlight CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Secret Sea CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Cloud Cover CS: 3 3/4″ x 5″
Peaceful Garden DSP: pick three designs for
die cutting
Peaceful garden Glimmer Paper: for die cuts
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, 1/2″ strip for
sentiment

I used the Spotlight on Nature nested circles die set and choose the second, third, fourth and fifth circles from the largest.

DSP design #1 cut one each from the smallest and largest circle die.
Glimmer Paper: cut one each from the third and fourth circle sizes.
DSP design #2 cut one each from the third and fourth circle sizes.
DSP #3 cut one each from the smallest and largest circle die.

Lay them out so that the top row the design #1 smallest circle starts the row and next is Glimmer Paper second smallest then DSP #2 second largest circle and last in the top row is DSP #3 largest circle.

On bottom row DSP #1 largest circle, then Glimmer Paper second largest circle then DSP #2 second smallest and lastly DSP #3 smallest circle.

Starting with the bottom row adhere the second largest circle to the largest circle move the Glimmer Paper circle so that the curves of the circle on the left side line up.
Adhere the next circle on top of the Glimmer Paper this will be DSP #2 or the second smallest circle and then adhere the smallest circle on top of the entire stack matching up the left curve of the circles.
Start on the top row with the largest circle on the bottom and adhere the second largest circle so that the right-hand side of the curve of the circles line up.
Adhere the second smallest circle which will be the Glimmer paper on top of the first two circles matching up the right sided curve of the circles.
Then adhere the smallest circle on top of the Glimmer Paper circle.
This is how they will look completely adhered.
Cut both circle bunches in half.
Swap the bottom halves of the circles and slide the pieces until the papers match up and look like they are swirling into one another.
Emboss the Cloud Cover layer in the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder and adhere to the Secret Sea layer and then adhere those two layers onto the Misty Moonlight card base.
Place the two pieces of the layering circles on the card base and place then so they are equidistant from the edges of the card. Adhere the bottom part of the circles to the card base.
Using a Basic White 1/2″ strip, stamp in Secret Sea ink the Peace, Love & Joy from the Peace on Earth stamp set.

If you slide the end of the strip into the punch you can cut one side at a time and therefore make the banner any size you wish! Place one end of the strip into the Banner Sayings punch and cut one end of the strip into a banner edge.

Place the other end of the strip through the other end and lift up the banner cut edge above the punch so that you only cut the remaining side!
Glue the top half of the layering circles above the bottom circle offset so that the matching DSP lines up.

Pop up the sentiment strip and place over the entire length of the layering circles.

One o fthe things I love about these Traditional Sparkling Sequins is that you can color them with our Stampin’ Blends markers! I used the dark Azure Afternoon Stampin’ Blends marker as well as the Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blends markers to color the blue sequins and added it to the card around the sentiment piece.
I wanted to add a dove on the right hand side but the dove faces the other way so I cut the dove upside down on the Secret Sea Glimmer paper so that it would face the opposite way!

I popped it up on Stampin’ Dimesionals and placed it as if it was sitting on the right-hand side of the sentiment strip to finish off the card!

This is a stunning card and although it requires a little extra die cutting and adhering the layers together it is not difficult to do and the effect is well worth it!

Try this layering circles technique with your stash and let me know how it turns out!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

This Demonstrator Swap was holiday themed and the cards and ideas are lovely!

Hope they inspire you as much as they did me!

This first card for our September swap features the whimsical stamp set Long Time No See which is an Online Exclusive with a long necked llama and a weiner dog to name a few of the adorable images in this set! Denise W. our fearless swap leader combined Cheery Cobbler ink and cardstock, Basic Beige and Basic White cardstock and the FUN Need for Tweed DSP to create this super cute card!

The next sample is a 3D fun fold card made by Lori V and uses the Traditions of Christmas DSP and the Damask Designs embossing folder for a stand alone and stand OUT WOW card!
The back side is just as pretty!
Veronica S’s swap card used the Ornamental Christmas stamp set, the sentiment is a clever masking from the Holly Jolly stamp set and the background is the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder for a fabulous coordinated look!
The next stunning holiday card comes from Michelle L and used the Peace on Earth Suite of products including the Glimmer paper for the star and the embossing folder and dies from the suite!
Blue and silver is always a stunning holiday combo and Kathi D used these colors with the Sentimental Framing dies and the Merry Christmas single stamp set heat embossed in Silver WOW powder!
Simple and elegant!
this fun shape card uses the Everyday Arches die set and the Joys of Joy bundle with a So Swirly background for a super fun card from Marie W.
Patty J sent a Swap card using the Traditions of Christmas DSP set on Pretty in Pink cardstock for a lovely non traditional Christmas card!
Don’t forget you can always decorate the Basic White envelopes too and Carol S’s swap card did just that coordinating her Pine Tree Trimmings tree image in Old Olive ink to match her lovely card!
This card from our August swap arrived after my last Swap post – this great fun fold from Robin C uses the gorgeous Seasons of Elegance DSP to enhance this angled tri fold fun fold card!
And my last swap card to inspire you is a simply stamped A Child is Born stamped image in Night of Navy ink on Cloud Cover cardstock with the Gorgeous Secret Sea Faux Linen ribbon under the sentiment piece from Kristen B!
This ribbon is awesome and does not show well online so glad I got to see it in person – it will be on my next order!

Hope these cards inspired your holiday card ideas! What will you be getting?
Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

august 2025 swap cards

by | Oct 8, 2025 | card samples, card swap, Christmas card ideas, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, embossing folders, fun fold, In Colors, masculine cards, new catalog, online exclusives, techniques

Our August Demonstrator Swap cards are all in and they all feature new stamp collections from the September to December 2025 mini catalog and the newly released Online Exclusives that are Fall and Holiday themed!

And what gorgeous samples and ideas do I have to show you today!

My first swap card comes from CarrollAnn A. and uses the new Amber Autumn Bundle. It contains a lovely large die with a card size cut out of Fall Leaves – she die cut that in Crushed Curry and colored around the edges with Shaded Spruce ink and a blending brush and adhered it to a Pumpkin Pie base. She colored the pumpkin and squash focal piece with Stampin’ Blends markers and popped it and the sentiment up on Stampin’ Dimensionals for a great Fall wishes card.

Ginger S’s swap card features the Fright Night bundle embossed and cut out on Timid Tiger CS and Basic Black CS. The image is heat embossed in black embossing powder for extra depth and dimension! This fun fold front flap card uses the Spooky Sweet Specialty Designer Series paper and lots of fun extras – like the caldron cut out from the DSP!
Tractor and Co. Bundle was used to make Patty J’s swap card. The tractor is stamped and set on the Thoughtful journeys 6″ x 6″ DSP for a fabulous Fall scene.
My next demonstrator swap card is from My upline Denise W. and she used the Happy Place mini catalog stamp set.

She made a homemade rainbow pad using a wet wipe and Azure Afternoon, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, and Balmy Blue ink refills to ink up the Happy Stamp!

She used Azure Afternoon, Darling Duckling and Basic White cardstock, the So Swirly embossing folder and the Darling Duckling In Color 6″ x 6″ DSP for the “For You” sentiment strip.

My last Fall swap card came from Kathi D and features the Gathering Together Suite collection of products including the Gathering Together Specialty Designer Series paper and great large fall foliage dies.
Judith P’s swap card is a gatefold fun fold card using the Jars of Joy bundle and the Traditions of Christmas DSP.
The Peaceful Garden Suite was used by Marie W and features a clever partial cut die in the center to make a small lift up card on a 1/4 sheet sized base!

The small branch that the dove is carrying is die cut from the Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper and the soft Cloud Cover layer is embossed with the coordinating Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder!

The Peaceful Garden Suite was used by Marie W and features a clever partial cut die in the center to make a small lift up card on a 1/4 sheet sized base!
Carol S’s Traditional Labels swap card is stunning in it’s traditional Red and Green dies that pop on the Traditional Wreath 3D embossing folder background in Basic White cardstock!
And my last sample is a swap card from Lori V featuring the Peaceful Garden Suite of products in gold foil with a coordinating heat embossed Peace on Earth in the center. The background is complimented with the gorgeous Seasons of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper and Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon!
Hope these demonstrator swap cards inspired you – now is the time to start those Christmas cards! It is so much nicer to receive a handmade card than a store bought one because it takes time and effort. For that reason it’s good to start early!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

by | Aug 27, 2025 | card samples, card swap, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, embossing folders, fun fold, In Colors, masculine cards, new catalog, stamps ink paper

July’s swap cards are from the upcoming September to December 2025 mini catalog and the Online Exclusives collection!

I always get great ideas from this amazing group of sister demonstrator swappers and love to show you all the fun ideas!

This first swap card is a fun fold card from Lori V. using the gorgeous DSP Seasons of Elegance Specialty Paper and the Jar of Joy stamp set. Isn’t this a special card! The back of the card contains a decorated Basic White layer for writing your message!

My second swap card comes from Marie W and uses the super cute Spooky Halloween bundle.
Using the large Spotlight on Nature die to make the moon and all the fun dies from the bundle to create this sweet Haloween scene!
Kathi D. made this elegant Peace on Earth card that uses the Glimmer paper from that Suite and the DSP, stamps and dies to make this lovely heartfelt card!
My next swap card is from Carol S and uses the Online Exclusive Charming Day bundle for this beautiful z-fold fun fold Birthday card! The Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots and Wink of Stella add a lot of sparkle to this finished project!
Denise W hosts this demonstrator swap each month and is such a wonderful host – organizing the participants and even sending out prizes for her downline! She used the Label Me Grateful Online Exclusive Bundle and the Country Woods paper to make a great Thanksgiving card or a masculine thank you!
This card was also from Denise W as a sweet thank you card for being a consistent swapper!
What a wonderful surprise to get happy mail!
Even demonstrators love happy mail!
She used the Impressions Abloom and the Layered Thoughts stamp set.
My last July Swap card is from Judith P. and used the Perfectly Pear suite of products and the Unbounded Love stamp set which is on the Last Chance List.

Hoping that these cards inspired you to create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Reminder: Some of these are from the upcoming Mini Catalog sets and are not available until September so they will not appear in the photo list below!

Happy Stampin’

peace on earth christmas card – upcoming mini catalog sneakpeak

peace on earth christmas card – upcoming mini catalog sneakpeak

Starting in September comes a new holiday mini catalog – the September to December 2025 Mini Catalog! I will have copies available at my Open House – Friday, August 22nd 12pm – 3pm and Saturday, August 23rd 9am to 12pm!

This is one of the products we could pre-order and this one was featured in a demonstrator exclusive craft day a few weeks back!

This is a card I designed for the Christmas in July Demonstrator Swap! It features the Peace on Earth bundle along with the Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder and a fun technique.

Measurements:
BASE: Secret Sea CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Misty Moonlight CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper: 2″ x 3″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Place the Misty Moonlight layer in the Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine using the Base plate #1 and the grey embossing plate #4 with the embossing folder sandwiched in between #1 and #4.
Using a direct to paper technique rub Versamark ink onto the edges of the embossed layer.
Using the brush that comes in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit (#159971) $27.00 dip the brush into the Silver embossing powder and then tap the powder from the brush onto the versamark ink covered paper. Heat with the Heat Tool until the embossing powder melts.

(Product Details for the Embossing Additions Tool Kit: Make embossing easier with the Embossing Additions Tool Kit. This kit includes an Embossing Buddy, Powder Pal, Crafting Tweezers, and Crafting Brush. The Embossing Buddy is a small bag of powder. Rub it over your paper before inking and embossing. This ensures the embossing powder stays only where you want it. The Powder Pal is an easy way to catch and funnel excess embossing powder back into its container. Use the Crafting Tweezers to hold items while embossing them. And the Crafting Brush is handy for brushing powder for keeping your paper and work area clean. Keep this kit on hand, and you’ll what you need to keep your embossing neat and tidy.

Stamp the Peace on Earth sentiment in Secret Sea ink in the middle of the embossing folder outlined middle area.
Adhere the embossed layer to the Secret Sea cardstock card base.
Die cut the smaller dove image out of the silver hue Peaceful Garden glimmer paper and two of the stars.

Place it on the card front to see where you would like to adhere the dove.

Adhere the two stars to the right and slightly below the sentiment.
Place Stampin’ Seal + below where the dove will be adhered and fold a 5″ piece of Misty Moonlight and Silver edged ribbon that is part of the Peaceful Garden Suite of products, adhere the ribbon down and then remove the release paper from some Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the dove and adhere over the ribbon.
Adhere some Basic Rhinestone Jewels to the card front.
Stamp wishing you and Peace, Love and Joy in Secret Sea ink to the Basic White layer and adhere to the inside of the card.
The embossing powder dusting gives the edges of the card an antiqued look and enhances the Glimmer paper dove and stars for a gorgeous Christmas card!

This is a lovely set that can be used for so much more than just Christmas! Let me know if you would like a catalog and will not be at my Open House or upcoming Library Card classes and I will get one to you!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!
As a reminder since this is a sneak peak and the products are not available until September 3rd for customers the photo links will not be available below.

Happy Stampin’
