Three things start tomorrow, Thursday September 1:
My gift for September will be a package of Adhesive-Backed Seasonal Sequins with orders of $35 or more.
Edited 9/28/22 – I am receiving feedback about the link to the facebook video not working, so I added this video to my YouTube Channel and am sharing it here…
I featured the Christmas Scottie bundle last night on Facebook Live, along with the fabulous Gingham Cottage designer paper collection.
I am presenting pictures and details here as a quick reference, but you may need to see the video for full details. Click here for the Facebook Live video, and please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to get notice of my live videos.
I always appreciate any help you can give me in Likes, Shares and purchases – I am really close to earning this year’s Incentive Trip, and orders placed between now and September 30 count toward this reward!
My first project is a pretty simple card that takes advantage of the beautiful Snowflake Specialty Vellum as a backdrop for our cute Scottie. I have also used the Alphabest bundle to create my own greeting. Love, love, love making my own words to use on cards!
The only dimensions of note here are the Basic White mat at 4″ x 5 1/4″ and the designer paper at 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″. The circle is the largest of the Stylish Shapes circles.
The favor is one that I will be making in quantity for craft shows – so you know it has to be pretty simple!
It is a gusseted pouch that I have sized to hold tea and cookies. I got the Walkers shortbread at World Market and will swap out the tea for a Christmas tea when those are available.
The designer paper measures 4″ x 7 1/2″, scored at 2″ and 5 1/2″ and at 3/8″ along the bottom edge. The gusset is a total of 1/2″ wide, so I scored at 1/4″ from each edge after the pouch was folded – please refer to the video for tips and tricks to make this cute little pouch. This is a hard one to describe in words – but very easy to make!!
All of the patterns in the Gingham Cottage designer paper collection are so cute! It’s a big pack, but I know I will use every sheet.
There’s even a black and orange pattern for Halloween. I used the Bewitching bundle to decorate this one. So many different Halloween treats will fit in this – and you can modify the depth of the pouch and dimensions very easily.

My upline Mindy Gray showed us these layouts at a team event this week – the card on the left is a fun fold, and the card on the right uses the cut section from it to create a focal point.
I presented these cards on Facebook Live on Tuesday night, and I apologize for the technical issues. Click here for the video – it’s a bit rough, but it does illustrate the steps to construct these cards.
There is a window in the front panel of the fun fold, and it opens to reveal another piece that pulls open to the right.
Dimensions are as follows:
Both layers of rectangle are cut from the front panel at the same time – adhere the designer paper to the front of the card with adhesive around the perimeter only, and then you will be able to separate the window pieces. The Pool Party rectangle is used on the fun fold, and the designer paper is used on the basic card.
Here is a better look at the second card. The Pool Party mat is embossed with the Seashells 3D embossing folder, which is one of the items that has been added to our Sale-a-bration offerings. You can choose this folder for FREE with a $50 order.
Here’s a look at the cards Mindy designed for our team make-n-take. They follow the same layout and also use the Texture Chic designer paper, but with the Nature’s Harvest bundle. Love these!

The Halloween witch sets in the current mini are both super-cute! I used them to make the fun folds I presented last night on Facebook Live. The designer paper is from the Celebrate Everything collection, which is available to purchase with Stampin’ Rewards.
I encourage you to get together with a friend to reach the Stampin’ Rewards level of $150 if you want something that is only available as a Host Reward. If you live in different places, I can set up a Host Code for your orders so that you can each have shipping to your own addresses, and the “Host” can collect the benefits. Please don’t hesitate to ask me questions about this – I love to see my Customers get the most out of the rewards! Email me at stampyourworld@gmail.com – we can set up a call to discuss.
Both of these cards are very simple and do not require many pieces. I am presenting pictures and details here as a quick reference, but you may need to see the video for full details.

The tag card uses the Very Best Trio punch to create the tag-shaped corners on the cardstock and designer paper. My friend Debbie taught me this fun fold before the punch was released, and we cut the corners with scissors and a template at that time. The punch makes this card even easier!
Dimensions are as follows:
As I mentioned in the Live presentation, I have been making this card in many themes! Here is one from my most recent class using the Sweet Gingerbread bundle and Santa Express designer paper.
I’m showing just one card from the class, but the pdf and video for all of the cards in this class are still available under Option 3 (click here for class listing).
This version uses the Sweetest Cherries bundle from the Annual Catalog along with the Celebrate Everything designer paper.
The card on the right is a fun fold that my upline Mindy Gray taught in our team meeting this week. It is another great fun fold for any theme!
Dimensions for this card are as follows:

My Facebook Live projects from this week showcase the Sweetest Christmas Suite which features traditional colors, images and greetings. Click here for the Facebook Live video, and please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to get notice of my live videos.
The designer paper that makes up most of the card base creates two pockets on the inside. One is large enough for a note card or even a hot cocoa pack, and the other creates a cute pocket for small tags.
The Real Red cardstock measures 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, and the designer paper measures 5 1/4″ x 12″, scored at 4″ and 8″.
The gift card holder and favor each start from a 6″ square of designer paper. Please refer to the Facebook Live for complete instructions to create these.

These are my Facebook Live projects from last night – the two great things are the Snowflake Specialty Vellum and the Snowman Magic Bundle. I can’t get enough of either of them!
Click here for the Facebook Live video, and please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to get notice of my live videos.
The card and gift card holder each use the vellum sheets that are printed with iridescent foil. There are three different prints, and the package includes each print in iridescent foil and white flocking, for a total of six 12″ x 12″ sheets.
The die set in the Snowman Magic bundle includes this great frame, which I simply cut into a 4″ x 5 1/4″ mat of Coastal Cabana cardstock. The hill is cut from a 3 7/8″ wide piece of Basic White, cut at the top with one of the Basic Borders dies. This edge could easily be hand cut. The vellum measures 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″, and both are attached behind the Coastal Cabana frame.
The sentiments and stamps in this bundle are so cute! See the full set below.
The gift card holder is very similar to a gift card holder that I have been making for years (click here for a designer paper version) – the difference here is that I added a cardstock liner behind the gift card, and I used a longer length of vellum so that I could double up the thickness of the vellum at the flap.
Dimensions are as follows…
The pocket section is the 3″ width, and the 2 7/8″ width is the flap section (which gets folded back to create a flap that is approximately 1 3/8″).
WARNING!! — If you have a directional print, plan the score lines accordingly. You could actually score at 3″, 6″, and 9″ to make it easier, but I like the extra 1/8″ in the greeting section so that the fold at the flap can easily wrap around the bulk of the card.
And last, but not least…this cute little favor which is a remake of a Hershey Nugget project from years ago! The Nuggets are wrapped with 1″ x 3″ pieces of Basic White, stamped and decorated as desired with snowman faces and accessories. The tray that holds the Nuggets is 2 1/2″ tall x 3″, scored at 1/2″ and 2 1/2″.

If you are interested in this bundle, I am offering it to you in my current class listing at a discount – I will cover shipping and tax from Stampin’ Up! when you purchase it with my class (click here for class details).
The card opens to reveal a tiny shopping bag which can hold a gift card or other flat gift.

Dimensions are as follows:
I am showing how to score and trim the shopping bag piece below, using a piece of designer paper from last year (which is lighter and allows an easier view of the markings).
These pictures show the outside (top photo) and inside (bottom photo) of the bag piece when just ready for assembly. Note the locations of the Tear-n-Tape.
Check out the video below for complete instructions, and if you need any of the products to make this project, I would appreciate your business in my online store. Don’t forget that the adorable Sweet Gingerbread bundle is available at a discount with my current class.

I presented this gift card holder as the first project in my Christmas in July Facebook Live videos on Wednesday. I am adding pictures and details here, but you may also want to see the video. I added it to YouTube for easier reference, and attached it below. Please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to catch my live videos!
I CASEd this from Mindy Clove, altering her design just slightly so that my scalloped edge on the gift card holder would show better. It is my favorite new gift card holder – it takes advantage of both sides of the designer paper; it’s very adaptable to other themes; AND it’s a pocket card. You know how these things make me very happy 🙂
Dimensions are as follows…
