All Star Blog Hop: Nests of Winter

Welcome to our All Star monthly blog hop for the Nests of Winter Suite! We are excited to share even MORE ideas than what we are offering in our exclusive Video Class Bundle this month.

The Nests of Winter is one of my favorite suites in the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. So you can image how happy I am that it’s the featured suite this month in our All Star group. In fact I’m so in love with this suite that I’ve created my yearly Stampers With ART team holiday/appreciation cards with it. It’s taking me a bit more time than I anticipated to get these cards done, but I’m hoping to send one to each person in my team within the week. Hopefully no one will be sad if they catch this post first, because it’s this card that I’m sharing with you all today.

I used the stamps, dies, and designer paper from the Nests of Winter Suite, the Painted Trees Embossing Folder with the Pool Party Two-Toned Cardstock and buffer/sanding blocks, the Cherry Cobbler & Gold Satin Ribbon, and more to create a Hidden Scenery Z-Fold Card.

A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for creating this card. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list linked to my online store for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel or tune into my events on my Facebook Page so you can get updates when I share and go live).
