Christmas Tags & More plus Hershey Nugget Treat Box

December 6, 2025 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

Do you love to create handmade Christmas cards and tags? With the Christmas Tags & More 6″ x 6″ Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper pack, you can create all the tags and cards you desire quickly and easily. This wonderful assortment of paper and punch-out images makes it easy to coordinate colors and images on your Christmas cards and gift tags. It includes full-sheet designs, punch-out designs for card fronts and tags, and cut-apart images for quick accents.

I could not stop creating using the Christmas Tags & More 6″ x 6″ Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper pack and the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.

The designs came together quickly and effortlessly. This bundle of products has been hard to keep in stock on my store site. However, if it is out of stock you can enter your email address and the store will notify you as soon as it is back in stock.

I also created some fun Hershey Nugget Treat Boxes using this same designer paper pack. Do you have children in school? These make great teacher treats! Or you can make them up to share with your classmates!! I mean, who doesn’t love chocolate? Is that even a thing? They also make great little treats to treat your favorite hairdresser and nail technician. I’m sure the little treat boxes would also make your coworkers smile to find a little treat box with chocolate (or other small candies) on their desk!

Here is the project sheet with measurements to make the cards and treat boxes. I did not make instructions for 6 of the cards, but did make a new design on my YouTube video. They are very easy to put together.

Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle

November 12, 2025 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle

When the Stampin’ Up November Online Exclusives hit the website I fell in love with the new Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle! The nested dies create a unique die cut focal image using the stamped foliage from the stamp set; because parts of the foliage image are cut away creating a Peek-a-boo effect. When I was designing this card, I didn’t want it to look like the sample card in the Online Exclusives brochure and my mind kept gravitating to the colors Secret Sea and Cloud Cover. I was able to find those colors replicated in the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper and used the 6×6 designer paper cut down to make 5 cards. Since I made several cards for a swap I ended up with a remaining 2″ square from each sheet of paper. I was able also to use 3 of the squares to make a panel that when it was embossed looked just like a full strip of the DSP like I had used in the other 4 cards. With this design, I was able to make 13 cards using up only 3 pieces of the designer paper.

Friendly Foliage all embossed Frosted Foliage Secret Sea

The third card above shows the DSP squares used to recreate a strip of DSP behind the focal point. Be sure to let me know which card you like best. 1…2…or 3. I have provided a printable project sheet below giving all of the measurements and products used to make this beautiful but fast card. The card uses minimal supplies and goes together quickly.

Traditions of Christmas Specialty DSP Flip Card

November 4, 2025 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

DSP flip cards

My favorite holiday has always been Christmas and if I had my way I would certainly make Christmas cards all year long! I love the shiny Christmas lights we can see for miles around and who doesn’t love the smell of cedar and scotch pines.

The shiny bling on the Traditions of Christmas card twinkles from the shiny gold foil cardstock and from the gold outline in the design on the Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper. I also created a second card using the North Pole Delivery/Jolly Delivery Suite, which created a more whimsical card design. The card design can be created either in landscape or portrait orientation and the designer series paper panel can be flipped or not. I flipped the DSP panels in the Jolly Delivery card and I did not flip the DSP panels in the Traditions of Christmas card; but I like both looks!

Celebrate Sunflowers – Direct to Rubber Coloring Technique

celebrate sunflowers, direct to rubber technique

I have fallen in love with the gorgeous Stampin’ Up Create Sunflowers Stamp and Sunflowers Dies bundle; how about you? Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle Product List

Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle (English)

[154065]

It is also part of a suite entitled Flowers for Every Season, which includes a ton of products including designer series paper (DSP), embossing folder, multiple stamp sets, dies, punch, and bling shown here: Flowers for Every Season Suite

Product List

Flowers For Every Season Suite Collection (English)

[154132]

The card shown above was made using the Create Sunflowers Stamp Set, the Sunflowers Dies, and a technique called direct-to-rubber coloring. I’ve used some of the new 20-22 In-colors – Cinnamon Cider, Bumblebee, and Just Jade. What is your favorite new color? I love the Misty Moonlight and Magenta Madness.

Direct to Rubber Technique

When using the direct-to-rubber coloring technique, I could use Stampin’ Write markers or Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads (or ink refills) and a sponge or sponge dauber to color/daub/blend ink onto the red rubber stamp before I stamp on the card stock. I’ve used this technique many times when I wanted to stamp a multi colored image. It is especially helpful when I am highlighting or coloring certain words on a greeting stamp.

I started out by inking the sunflower entirely with bumblebee ink and then I daubed the early espresso and calypso coral inks directly on the red rubber stamp around the center of the sunflower. I re-moistened the ink by huffing (applied my moist breath) on the inked stamp. The ink can start to dry with the time it takes to apply all of the colors and breathing on the stamp moistens the ink. To blend the colors, I used a blender pen and blended the bumblebee petals and then blended the calypso coral and early espresso inks. I saw Patty Bennet demo the sunflower and fell in love with that look.

Finally, I folded the card using the “hinge fun fold”. The cards can open bottom to top or from the side.

TIP: Always check to see if your DSP is directional or has a pattern that needs to be cut a certain way. Sometimes the DSP has no discernible direction and it won’t matter which way it is cut.

Celebrate Sunflowers Fun Fold Card

July 15, 2020 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

I love summer and the beautiful sunflowers are the epitome of summer. They stand so stately and majestic and who doesn’t love sunflower seeds!!

I decided to change up the color scheme for this sunflower card to a beautiful cool crisp Night of Navy and White. I love how the white sunflower pops off the navy background.

This fun fold card center navy panel flips up and provides another area to stamp a greeting or to write a personal message to your recipient.

TIP: Always check to see if your designer series paper (DSP) is directional or has a pattern that needs to be cut a certain way. Sometimes the DSP has no discernible direction and it won’t matter which way it is cut.

Fun Fold Spooktacular Box

October 10, 2019 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

Fun Fold Spooktacular Box

Don’t you just love this Fun Fold Spooktacular Box for the Spooktacular Bash card set? It made up so cute using the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper along with both the Spooktacular Bash and Wonderfully Wicked Stamp sets!

In addition, the cute little spider die out of the Wicked Die Set was used to add a few spooky fun spiders. They were coated with the new product from the 2019 Holiday Catalog called Shimmery Crystal Effects which as a result made them sparkle and shine to catch the eye. The spooktacular greeting from the Spooktacular Bash Stamp Set was framed with a die in the Ornate Frames Dies.

To add a little more color and a whimsical look to the box, I grabbed the Gorgeous Grape striped ribbon from the 2019-20 Annual Catalog.

Measurements:

Basic Black Cardstock: 7-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ and a scrap for the ornate frame (Score on 7-1/4″ side at .75 and 6.5. Score on 8-1/4″ side at .25, .5, .75, 3.75, 4.5)

Gorgeous Grape Cardstock: 5″ x 2.5″ and a scrap to stamp the greeting and cut out the spiders

Monster Bash Designer Series Paper: 4.75″ x 2.25″

This Fun Fold Spooktacular Box was crafted from one sheet of Basic Black cardstock and will hold all four of the Halloween cards and envelopes that I posted earlier in the week. If you see one you like, please leave a comment for me! Check them out:

This card was quick and easy to make yet catches the eye with such colorful designer series paper. Be sure to check out the other three cards in the set!

Winter Woods/Color Challenge

September 10, 2019 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

Today I participated in another color challenge card event and I love the way this card came out. I used the ink direct to block technique. The colors blended nicely. I chose Highland Heather, Pretty Peacock, and Mint Macaron. These 5 colors were included in the challenge.

Recipe:

Cardstock:

Pretty Peacock 5.5″ x 4.25″ and a scrap
Highland Heather 5.25″ x 4″ and a scrap
Very Vanilla 5″ x 3.75″ and a scrap

Designer Series Paper: Woven Threads DSP (3.75″ x 1.5″)

Technique: Apply highland heather ink to the middle of the acrylic block, then apply mint macaron to the top and pretty peacock to the bottom. Mist lightly with water to let the colors blend and then pick up the block and tilt slightly to allow the colors to run. Apply the block to the very vanilla card stock and allow the ink to soak into the card stock before removing the block. When dry, stamp the desired image over the colored block image.

Adhere highland heather card stock to pretty peacock base.
Apply woven threads DSP to the bottom of the very vanilla layer.
Attach pretty peacock linen thread to cover seam between very vanilla and the DSP.
Punch pretty peacock, very vanilla, and highland heather circles.
Stamp greeting on highland heather
Adhere circles in desired layers
Attach very vanilla stamped layer to the highland heather layer.
Attach stacked circles/greeting
Spray lightly with champagne mist shimmer paint diluted in 70% rubbing alcohol. Allow to dry
Attach a few woven threads sequins
