New Online Exclusive releases and a new Catalog are right around the corner and our latest swap will give you some great ideas of what to do with these awesome new products!

The first card uses the Raven’s Tale stamp set – if you are a fan of Poe or spooky this set is for you!

Susan W.’s swap card features the Raven’s Tale stamp set, the Paradise Garden hybrid folder which is on the last chance list, the Perrenial Postage dies, and Floral Charm DSP on a Box front fun fold card.

The arven’s tale stamp set is

My next example demonstrator swap card comes from the west coast and my friend Jeanne T made a lovely card using the pretty Poinsettia Bundle in Peaceful Pine and Basic White CS, Real Red Stitched ribbon and Irridescent Pearls!

Several of us did our swaps with the Woodland Wishes Online Exclusive stamp set.

My version is photographed below and detailed in my July 29th, 2026 blog post.

Another beautiful version comes from my friend Ginger from the Midwest and is delightfully colored with our gorgeous Stampin’ Blends markers: Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Peaceful Pine, Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral and Golden Glow as well as skin tones 600 and 700. She also used Everyday Arches dies and the Forever Plaid embossing folder for the background of her colored animal tree!

She even layered and stamped the inside!

The last Woodland wishes sample comes from Kathi D. and uses the Spotlighting technique for the animal tree, she also used the Swirls of Magic embossing folder on the Golden Glow layer for background interest!

Lori W.’s swap card features the Frightfully Fun Suite and DSP as well as the Oh My Fright Bundle, with the Swirls of Magic embossing folder and the Everyday Arches dies too for a great Halloween card!

Marie W used the Simply Leaves bundle in Blackberry Bliss and Barely Blush for a stunning and non traditional take on a Fall card! The background uses the 2026-2028 In Color Gingham 12″ x 12″ DSP(which is currently unavailable but will be back soon – remember if you love it go to the website and put your email in to be notified when it returns!)!

My last swap card from this batch comes from our organizer, Denise W and features the Stitched Stocking bundle and the A Stitched Season DSP with the Real Red Peppermints as the finishing holiday touch!

Hope these swap cards inspired your creative juices and got you planning your next project!
Now it’s your turn to stamp and create – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

christmas (fun fold) in july

by nataliegramleystamps | Jul 29, 2026 | card samples, Christmas card ideas, die cutting, fun fold, new catalog, techniques

It’s Christmas in July – and here is a Double Flap fun fold card featuring the adorable Woodland Wishes stamp set.

I love coloring – as a child I had loads of coloring books and I continued to love it as an adult – our Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers and so fun to color with – whether just straight coloring between the lines or fancier blending and shading – they can do it all! I made this card for this month’s Christmas and Holiday Demonstrator’s swap and I colored in all the animals in this set and had so much fun doing all the coloring for these cards!

Measurements:
BASE: Poppy Parade CS: 4 1/4″ x 11″, 2 3/4″ x
5 1/2″, large scrap for circle die, 3/4″ x 5 1/4″
Crumb Cake CS: 2 3/4″ x 5 1/2″
DSP: 2″ x 5 1/4″
Basic White CS: 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″, 4″ x 5 1/4″, scrap
for circle die, 1/2″ x 4″, scraps for animal
stamps

Score the base card at 5 1/2″ and fold. Cut 2 3/4″ off the left side of the fold line.

Stamp the Woodland Wishes “animal” Christmas Tree in Hybrid Black ink and cut to 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ if not already that size.

Score the 2 3/4″ x 5 1/2″ piece of Crumb Cake CS at 1/4″.

Cut a piece of DSP to 2 1/2″ x 5″.

Adhere the DSP to the large panel.

Adhere the 1/4″ tab to the center back of the short side of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White piece.

Put Stampin’ Seal around the back of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer including the 1/4″ tab.

Adhere the DSP to the Crumb Cake cardstock if not done already.

Adhere the Basic White layer to the inside panel of the card base.

Stamp the inside sentiment in Poppy Parade ink and the little hedgehog image in Crumb Cake ink to the left side of the sentiment on the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer.

Stamp the outside sentiment in Hybrid Black ink on the Basic White strip.

Adhere to the Poppy Parade strip and cut into banner edges on either side.

Die cut a large circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies in Poppy Parade CS and then next one down in Basic White CS.

Splatter the Basic White circle with a Water Painter and the Poppy Parade ink.

Adhere the Basic White circle to the Poppy Parade circle and then adhere the strip sentiment to the circles.

Color the animals on the Christmas tree image with your choice of Stampin’ Blends.

I colored the cardinal and the Christmas bulbs in Real Red, Pecan Pie for the bear, Smoky Slate for the squirrel, Crumb Cake for the doves in light and reindeer in dark, fox in Cajun Craze, owl and stars in Golden Glow, greenery in Granny Apple Green and asterick in Balmy Blue.

Adhere the tree image to the outside panel of the card base.

Flip the Crumb Cake flap over the Poppy Parade flap.

Adhere the sentiment circle dies to the Crumb Cake flap.

I colored and fussy cut one bear, one fox and one deer for around the outside flap and sentiment circles.

Adhere these animals around the sentiment.

Adhere some Natural Matte Dots to the finished card and you have a great Christmas fun fold.

Now it’s your turn to make a Christmas card to celebrate Christmas in July or to start planning the cards and supplies you are going to need for this Fall to start making your Christmas cards to send to all those special people.

Now it’s your turn to create some Christmas artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
