Six easy card ideas with Autumn Toile paper from Stampin’ Up!®

Autumn Toile Stampin Up easy card ideas

Trees? Yes please! When I saw the beautiful Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper in the latest Stampin’ Up!® Mini Catalogue, I knew it had my name all over it.

I love autumn colours and tree images, so this gorgeous Designer Paper just had to land in my Stampin’ Up!® shopping basket.

I knew my nature-loving customers would feel the same so held an online craft class for them, so they could enjoy this great product and add to their masculine card stash.

We made six cards in one evening – no mean feat but the designs were very simple, as you can see here.

Nine projects with Peace on Earth from Stampin' Up!®

Peace on Earth Peaceful Garden Stampin Up card ideas

Are you making Christmas cards yet? Want a change from traditional red and green?

The gorgeous Peace on Earth dies (165924) and coordinating Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper (165917) from Stampin’ Up!® are ideal for making serene cards which will stand out from the crowd.

I used these dies and this lovely Peaceful Garden paper at my recent all-day class here in Derbyshire. I did not use the Peace on Earth stamps because the sentiments don't exactly scream Christmas to me.

We spent a relaxing day crafting, with a buffet lunch (SO many sandwiches!) to fuel our afternoon.

I created a tutorial of nine projects (10 if you include the handmade envelope) for people to choose from. Some cherry-picked their favourites, ignoring the tricky ones. Some only made the tricky ones, working on the theory that I was there to help if needed. And I believe some of them managed to make them all!
