Hey friend! I’m back with another card we created during this week’s Coffee & Cards Class. This one features the Scenic Adventures Bundle paired with the gorgeous Gallery Blooms Designer Series Paper—and I love how it turned out!

If you’re new here, Coffee & Cards is my weekly live class on Facebook and YouTube every Tuesday at 10 AM CT. It’s a fun time to hang out, stamp together, and get inspired. I’d love for you to join me!

You’ll find the video replay at the end of this post, along with details on how you can grab this week’s Class Kit to Go.

I started with a Mossy Meadow card base and layered it with a scenic piece of the Gallery Blooms DSP—the artwork in this paper does so much of the heavy lifting! To build the scene, I die-cut the grass from Mossy Meadow cardstock and adhered it at the bottom of the card.


Next, I added a little forest magic. Two large trees cut from Soft Sea Foam cardstock went down first. Then I layered in a smaller tree cut from Old Olive cardstock, popping it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals for depth. For a fun touch of color, I die-cut tiny flowers in Calypso Coral cardstock and tucked them in behind the grass—like a pop of wildflowers on a mountainside trail. Doesn’t it just make you want to take a deep breath and head outside?



The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso and Mossy Meadow ink on Very Vanilla cardstock, then die-cut with the Mixed Label Dies. I added it with Stampin’ Dimensionals and finished off the card with a sprinkle of In Color Flat Pearls for just the right amount of shine.

Card base (Secret Sea cs): 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2"
Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper (card base layer): 4-1/8" x 5-3/8"

Coffee & Cards Scenic Adventure Bundle

Wednesday, September 3, 2025

 Hey friend! Today I'm sharing one of the cards we created during yesterday's Coffee & Cards Class using the Scenic Adventure Bundle and the Beautiful Gallery DSP.

If you've never joined me for Coffee & Cards, I'd love for you to pop in for some creative fun! I go live on Facebook and YouTube every Tuesday at 10 AM CT; come hang out!

If you'd like to watch the tutorial, you'll find the video replay link at the end of this post. 


This card came together so easily; don’t you love it when that happens? The DSP really set the scene with its gorgeous landscape artwork. I started with a Secret Sea card base, then die-cut the trees from the Scenic Adventure Dies in Mossy Meadow cardstock. A little lift from Stampin’ Dimensionals gave them that perfect pop of dimension against the background.


For the sentiment, I stamped the sentiment in Secret Sea ink onto a die-cut label made with the Mixed Label Dies and Cloud Cover cardstock. The soft blue really ties in with the background and gives that peaceful, calming feel. Doesn’t it feel like you’re standing at the edge of the mountains, just taking it all in? A little linen thread bow and a couple of In-Color Pearls were the perfect finishing touches without distracting from the gorgeous scene.


Measurements:
Card base (Secret Sea cs): 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2"
Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper (card base layer): 4" x 5-1/4"
Mixed Labels die-cut label(Cloud Cover cs): 1-1/2" x 2-1/2"

Flip-Flap Fun Fold Card with Cheers & Sips

Saturday, August 9, 2025

Hey craft friend! Thanks so much for stopping by today. I'm excited to share this flip-flap fun fold card we made during Thursday's Live Card Class using the Cheers & Sips Bundle and coordinating Celebratory Sips DSP! If you missed the live class, don't worry; you can catch the replay at the link below 👇🏻.

If you joined me live, thank you for being there. It was such a good time crafting together; I really enjoyed chatting with all of you. 

Sometimes you just need a card that's as lively as the celebration itself, and this flip-flap fold delivers! With bold Blackberry Bliss, fruity drink images, and a splash of sparkle, this card is perfect for birthdays, summer gatherings, or any toast-worthy moment.


I started with a Blackberry Bliss card base and layered pretty patterns from the Celebratory Sips DSP. The sentiment panel is a Basic White circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies, stamped in Blackberry Bliss and Memento Black ink for a classy, cocktail-party look. Those delicious drinks? They're fussy cut straight from the DSP; no stamping needed. 


I popped the drink panel up with Stampin Dimensionals to make it stand out, then added a few Purple Fine Shimmer Gems for just the right amount of sparkle. The flip-flap-flap mechanism is created by trimming away part of the front panel so that the center section flips independently; such a fun surprise.

MEASUREMENTS:
Card base: 4-1/4" x 11, scored at 5-1/2" and 2-1/4"
Focal layer cardstock: 3" x 4-1/2" 
Inside layer cardstock: 3" x 4-1/2"
Inside DSP: 4" x 5-1/4"
Card base DSP: 3" x 4"
Focal Layer DSP: 2-3/4" x 4-1/4"
Sentiment Circle: 2-1/2"

Cheers & Sips Fun Fold Step Card

Thursday, August 7, 2025

Welcome, crafty friends!

I'm so glad you're here! Today's card is bursting with color, pattern, and personality; just like a real celebration should be! I had such a great time creating this playful step card featuring the Cheers & Sips Bundle and coordinating Celebratory Sips Designer Paper. Let's take a closer look at how it came together. 

We made this card during Thursday's Live Card Class, and it was so much fun crafting it with all of you! If you've never joined me for a Live Card Class, I'd love for you to pop in for some creative fun. I go live every Thursday at 3:00 PM CT on Facebook and YouTubeCome hang out!

The Celebratory Sips DSP does a lot of the work here—how amazing are those floral and polka dot prints?! I added the floral pattern to the card front and used the pink polka dots on the front step section for a fun mix-and-match look.


Next, I die-cut two arches using the Everyday Details Arches Dies—one in Timid Tiger and one in Thick White cardstock. On the white piece, I stamped the sentiment “Cheers to You!” using Strawberry Slush and Memento Black ink. The combo really pops! I layered the arches together and adhered just the lower portion to the front step so it stands tall and proud.

How cute are these drinks!? I fussy cut them directly from the Celebratory Sips DSP and popped them up on the arch with Stampin’ Dimensionals. They look ready to party!


Inside the card, I added a layer of Basic White and a coordinating strip of DSP to carry that festive feel throughout. And of course—I couldn’t resist a little sparkle! I finished the front with Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems because... I mean, who doesn’t love a little sparkle?

Measurements:
Card base (Timid Tiger cs): 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2"
Card base step section (Thick white cs): 4" x 9-3/4", 
scored at 2-1/4" and 4-1/2"
Designer Series Paper (2 pieces): 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" 
and 2-1/8" x 3-7/8"
