Simply embossed card – Splendid thoughts

Simply embossed card with Splendid Thoughts from the new July-December 2022 mini. I’ve been meaning to use this new Cascading 3D embossing folder but haven’t had the opportunity to do so until now. They look like the folds in a curtain, it looks really pretty.

A couple of weeks ago, we had a Stampin’ Up! event called “Creativity Now”. Demonstrators in all Stampin’ Markets were able to get together on a virtual platform and we had different presenters and crafted along. In total we made 4 cards and a gift bag. Fortunately the event platform recordings will still be available for awhile so that those who missed bits, could revisit and watch the replay and download the pdfs. It was fun, but I couldn’t resist adding my own little twist.

In today’s video, I wanted to share how I made this easy, peasy card. Embossing folders are my best friend. It elevates any project to a different level with minimum effort from you and it’s also a great time saver! I love them and this one is no exception. It brings back memories of the “wave” one which retired some time ago.

I’m not sure what the leaves are, my guess is that they’re some sort of Dracaenia and the rounded leaf resembles the Chinese money plant – its botanical name is Pilea Peperomioides (pronounced pie-lee-er peppero-me-oy-dees). Either is open for debate as I’m no horticulturalist!

Product List

Stampin’ Up! has a new Reward System beginning early April 2025. Customers now must have an online account and need to opt in to earn 10% of their qualifying commissionable product purchases to redeem as Stampin’ Rewards on future orders. A qualifying purchase must meet the minimum threshold requirement on commissionable products. Be aware that Stampin’ Rewards have an expiration date. They need not be redeemed all at once. Stampin’ Up!’s system tracks them and the rewards expiring first will be used first when redeemed. You can check the Rewards Dashboard to help you keep track of Rewards Expiration Date Information. Please note the new Stampin’ Reward System cannot use Rewards toward the purchase of a Starter Kit as the Starter Kit has non-commissionable items in it. The Host Code will become obsolete.
