This week’s episode of Terrific Tuesdays features holiday thank you card designs using several of the wonderful designer series paper packs offered by Stampin’ Up! These papers allow for so much creativity and variety in design, and we’ll be exploring more designs together throughout the week.

Today’s card uses an easy-to-miss sheet of paper in the Winter Meadow paper pack. At first glance, the sheet of grey haze is unimpressive, but it’s a terrific neutral with the interest of a varied pattern that affords you lots of design choices. Here, it serves as a backdrop that allows the focal elements of the card to pop. We start with a base of Crumb Cake cardstock. The lovely grey hazy sheet of DSP is matted by a sheet of Shaded Spruce, which helps draw the eye to the focal elements which are set atop in the same color. The sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set is stamped in Versamark and heat embossed in white atop the banner cut from Shaded Spruce. The sentiment is adhered directly to the grey backdrop to allow the hand-tied sprigs of mistletoe to be the only three-dimensional elements on the focal panel. The mistletoe is diecut from Shaded Spruce using the Magical Meadow dies. The berries are dots of Frosted Lace Stickles, and the whole bunch is held together with a white iridescent ribbon.

I love the simplicity of the design and how lovely the green elements look against the hazy grey backdrop. What do you think about the combination?

We have been exploring all of the wonderful ways we can use the Winter Meadow suite this week. If you were able to watch this week’s episode of Terrific Tuesdays, you watched this design come together, but I didn’t give the backstory. Today’s card design is based on a fellow team member’s card design. I always love being reminded of ways to use our stamps, and in this case, my fellow demonstrator’s design reminded me of the age-old technique of making your own designer paper.

For today’s card, we begin with a base of Pretty Peacock. I created a patterned paper using the Magical Meadow stamps using various shades of blue-green and I mixed in some metallic silver ink for a bit of sparkle. The silver and white sheer ribbon serves as a shimmery base for the sentiment panel, while still allowing the stamped pattern to shine through. The sentiment, also from the Magical Meadow stamp set, is stamped on a shimmer white base that has been diecut using the Autumn Leaves die. I added a sparkly mat of Pretty Peacock fine shimmer paper diecut using the larger Autumn Leaves sentiment die. A bow of iridescent white ribbon at the top of the sentiment panel adds extra shine and draws the eye to the sentiment. I added a few glitter sequins on opposing corners of the sentiment panel to complete the visual triangle with the sparkly bow.

This card is even more stunning in person as all of the elements really catch the light. It’s the perfect combination of color and sparkle to be reminiscent of a magical wintery day.

This week we’re working with the Winter Meadow suite of products from Stampin’ Up! All of these products are part of the winter seasonal sale, so it’s a great time to buy if you’ve had your eye on them. All of the products currently part of the seasonal sale are set to be retired at the end of the year and will no longer be available for purchase come January.

Today’s card design, although quite simple to put together, really packs a lot of punch. The design sits on a base of Lost Lagoon cardstock. The sheet of Snowflake Magic specialty paper is matted with a sheet of Lost Lagoon soft shimmer paper for a bit of added sparkle. The greenery is diecut from Silver Foiled specialty paper using the Magical Meadow dies. The sentiment from the Magical Meadow stamp set is stamped in Lost Lagoon ink on white cardstock, which is then diecut using the Nested Essentials banner die. The silver adhesive-backed sequins and bow from the silver and white sheer ribbon add additional sparkle to the sentiment panel, which is elevated using dimensionals.

This week we’re focusing on the Magical Meadow suite of products. Today, we’re combining the gorgeous Winter Meadow designer series paper with embossing and diecuts to create a beautiful winter card. This design is inspired by fellow Luv 2 Stamp team member Allison Duvani at Allison’s Creative Greetings. I love how just a few elements can work together to make a stunning card.

This card design is built on a base of Basic White cardstock. A sheet of Blueberry Bushel serves as the mat for the designer paper and embossed panel. I chose the winter branches pattern from the Winter Meadow paper pack and paired it with a sheet of white cardstock embossed using the Merry Melody embossing folder. The sentiment panel is matted with a Night of Navy and white cardstock circle. The greenery is diecut from Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, and Night of Navy using the Magical Meadow dies. The sentiment from the Magical Meadow stamp set is stamped on white cardstock and then mounted at the bottom of the panel over the stems of the greenery. A few simple faceted gems add a bit of sparkle and draw the eye across the card to the sentiment.
