I have a very special blog for you today. In Today’s Blog, I am teaching hubby how to stamp. Can I do it? Well, Please watch the video below to find out.
Here is the Project I will teach hubby how to actually stamp using the adorable Christmas Scottie Dog Bundle from the 2022 Jul-Dec Mini Catalog.
PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:
Thick Basic White Cardstock 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5 1/2″ or folded in Half
Cherry Cobbler Layer 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
Basic White Layer 4″ x 5 1/4″
PROJECT VIDEO: If you are reading this in an email, feel free to watch the video HERE on my blog.
I am not going to lie I was actually highly impressed by how well he did. He has never ever picked up a stamp and used an ink pad before. As you see in the video he has bear paws for hands so he is definitely heavy-handed. You will also see how he uses Liquid Glue for the first time.
I hope this encourages you to get your spouse to stamp with you. They actually might surprise you.

Today’s Project I am sharing with you is a Diagonal Easel Card using the Fond of Autumn Bundle along with the beautiful Rustic Harvest Designer Paper. I was inspired by this layout by fellow demonstrator Connie Stewart.
I am a huge fun fold fan and I love the way the corner pops up to give it a cute way to display your project.
One thing that I love about The Fond of Autumn Bundle is that when you die cut the floral pieces it cuts them into little individual pieces so you can use as little or as many pieces as you want. The colors that I used to color with are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, and Granny Apply Green for the leaves. Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight For the Flowers, Cajun Craze for the Berries and Neutral Tones Blends in Medium and Medium Light for the Acorns. I finished off by stamping a little acorn on the inside corner for a cute little decorative touch.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Cardbase 4 1/4″ x 11 scored at 5 1/2″ or folded in half
Cut a strip piece off the edge at 1 1/4″ (You will use this piece for the inside of your card to hold pop up easel piece)
You will score the top right corner edge at a diagonal down to the original 5 1/2″ score line to create your pop-up easel piece
4 x 4 DSP then cut at an angle from corner to corner to get 2 triangle pieces
For inside strip pieces, you will cut 2 pieces at 1″ x 4 1/8″
At 1 strip to the 1 1/4″ piece of cardstock you removed earlier and you will pop that piece up with stampin dimensional to create that edge piece.
Inside Basic White piece will be 3″ x 4 3/8″
Final Tip when adhering the image to front panel be sure not to adhere to top part of the image as this will not allow your card to pop up at the angle it needs to.
I hope you enjoyed hopping along with us all today. If you liked our projects be sure to leave us a fun comment letting us know what you think. All of the items in today’s project are listed below.
Today’s Projects we are building a cute Gnome using the Kindest Gnome and Hello Harvest Bundles from the August – December Mini Catalog.
I have absolutely become obsessed with these Gnomes. I have taken my love for Cinderella in my first project and created Blue Pumpkins. I combined The Kindest Gnomes Bundle along with the Hello Harvest Bundle.
I stamped my pumpkins in Balmy Blue and Pool Party and brushed color with Stampin Blends for a rustic look. For the background I used my Blending Brush to brush on the sky in Balmy Blue
