Halloween Card Idea

Halloween is right around the corner, and here is another quick and easy Halloween card that would be fun to send to someone. I love this little cat peeking out of the jack-o-lantern.

Elegant sympathy card idea with a fancy fold. This handmade sympathy card has stunning touches of silver on the Peaceful Place patterned paper from Stampin' Up!

Sympathy Card Design

Nobody likes making sympathy cards, but it's always nice to have a few on hand when you need them. The Peaceful Place patterned paper provides the perfect serene backdrop for an elegant sympathy card. The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. Change out the sentiment and this would also be a beautiful - and easy - Christmas card idea.

Floral Thank You Card Idea

I know this card looks a little more spring than fall, but y'all, I cannot get enough of the Pattern Party patterned paper. It's just too gorgeous! If you want to get your hands on this gorgeous paper, you have to host a workshop or class or place your own $150 order. But it is so worth it!

I also used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that is available for FREE during Sale-a-Bration! I can't get enough of these beautiful flowers either. With a photorealistic inside and a separate outline stamp for the outside, it is so versatile. If you haven't already, check out my video on the different looks you can get with these stamps.

Fun-fold Christmas card in soft colors. I love soft pink and mint green for Christmas! This card uses the Whimsical Trees stamp set and Whimsy & Wonder patterned paper from Stampin' Up!

Christmas Card Design with Soft Colors

My last fun fold card sample is a Christmas card because while it's still warm and sunny, it's never too early to start working on making your holiday cards! This one is very easy to make and beautiful too. The Whimsy & Wonder patterned paper has shiny iridescent accents. It's so gorgeous in person!

Using a Floral Stamp Set to Make Masculine Cards

I love the Artistically Inked stamp set and the gorgeous Expressions in Ink patterned paper! I've made quite a few cards with it already (like these floral cards), but for this month's Card Class & Game Night, I wanted to do something a little different. (When I finished the cards though, I realized they all had similar designs!) Despite the Artistically Inked stamp set being primarily flowers, I created two masculine cards or gender-neutral cards. I love pushing my stamping supplies to the limit! So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

If you love this stamp set, you won't want to miss my upcoming Artistically Inked Bundle Online Class on September 2. We'll be creating 5 more cards with cards designs you won't find anywhere else on my social media accounts! See more information and register.
