I am so excited to bring back my Mini Catalog Paper Share. As a demonstrator, we not only get a sneak peek of the catalogs but we have the opportunity to pre-order products in advance. When I had the chance to see all the incredible Holiday Designer Papers, I knew I had to offer a paper share.
I for one absolutely love doing special Holiday 3D projects, as well as fun cards with designer paper. I love seeing things in catalogs or online, however, pictures do not do these papers justice!!! With my paper share, I offer the perfect sampling.
What is a Paper Share?
Do you want every single paper as I do? Especially for the Holidays? Well, this allows you to see, feel and use the paper before buying the full packs of your favorites! When you reserve a designer series paper share with me, I will order all of the new paper from the latest Stampin’ Up! catalog, cut it up, package it, label it, and reship it to you so that you have a sampling of all of the new papers listed in this post. This is usually about 1/4th the cost of purchasing all of the new paper packs yourself. This way you can see, feel, touch, and use the paper and reorder your favorites in my ONLINE STORE

I could not remember ever loving a card technique as much as I have loved this one. When I saw my friend Patty Bennett do the Alcohol Ink on vellum I knew it would soon become an addiction. Boy was I right!!!! I immediately realized I had to spend the afternoon creating with Patty.
I made these backgrounds by scribbling several Stampin’ Blends markers on a piece of vellum paper, spritz alcohol with a sprayer I had lying around, and then tapping a paintbrush with alcohol on the surface. I’m not kidding! I scribbled and tapped, and this background appeared within a matter of minutes.
PROJECT MEASUREMENTS DIES USED:
As you can see, this blending technique makes beautiful results with minimal effort! Your cards and other paper projects will have a completely unique background, as it is impossible to achieve the same result twice.
After creating for the afternoon, we soon realized how fun it would be to take this technique up a notch!!! We had to see if embossed images would be just as amazing and boy did it not disappoint!!!
Using the Pearlescent Specialty Paper and the SeaShells 3D Embossing Folder, this created an incredible addition to my project.
Blends Used: Light Calypso Coral, Just Jade, Soft Succulent dark and light, Light and Dark Misty Moonlight.
Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder
Blends Used: Dark Balmy Blue for Background, Dark and Light Highland Heather, Light Rich Razzleberry, Dark Daffodil Delight,
Dark Petal Pink, Dark Flirty Flamingo
The Piece Patty Called van Gogh.
Embossing folder from Art in Bloom Bundle
Blends Used: Light and Dark Hightland Heather, Dark and Light Just Jade, Dark Bermuda Bay, Dark Daffodil Delight, Dark Flirty Flamingo
Be sure to visit my dear friend Patty Bennett’s Page HERE so you can see her amazing color combos and projects.
Thank you for joining me today, be sure to like and visit my Cards By TLC Facebook Page for my very first LIVE Wednesday, June 30th at 4pm PT. I will be showcasing some additional embossing folders. I told you I was addicted to this technique.

This weekend I participated in my first craft fair of the season and it was held at one of the Veteran’s Hall in our area. I thought it would be fun to create a cute Patriotic Thank You Candy Box. The Stitched Stars Dies made a cute window for this adorable treat box.
PROJECT MEASUREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS:
- Real Red Base for Box cut at 6 1/2″ x 10 1/2″
- Score along the 10 1/2″ Side at 1/2″, 2″, 5 1/2″, 7″
- Score along the 6 1/2″ Side at 1 1/2″ and 5″
- With the 1/2″ side facing down (6 1/2″ Side) cut up to the 2″ score line on both sides
- Remove both corners from bottom up to about 1 1/2″ leaving about 1/2″
- Still with the box in Portrait Mode, cut at the 5 1/2″ Line and 7″ line to create flaps. Be sure to cut a little extra off each side (SEE PHOTO BELOW) so the flaps close more evenly.
- Flip over box with Large Square towards top
- Adhere (3) 3/4″ x 3 1/2″ Basic White Strips to top of Box
- Place 3rd Largest Star (3″) from Stitched Stars Dies in the middle
- PRO TIP: KEEP DIE-CUT STAR FOR TAG OR ANOTHER CARD
- Cut a 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ Window Sheet and adhere to the back
- Use Tear Tape or Stampin Seal Plus for the best results for adhesive. Adhere two side panels where your star is located and two inside Flap pieces.
- To Finish off your box I Embossed sentiment in white embossing powder on Night of Navy Cardstock.
