Today I have for you eight cards that feature the Hobby Haven Suite of Stampin’ Up!® products. The first set of cards are fun fold cards. I’m calling them “Vellum Window” Stretch Z-Fold cards. And the other set of cards were inspired by the make & take project/pieces I received at the BackStage Leadership Conference I attended in Las Vegas last month.
Be sure to watch my instructional video by clicking here* (from my Live Paper Crafting Class earlier today) for measurements, tips and directions (or you can just click on this image below if you are already here in my blog post and can view it), scroll through the photos that follow, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
The papers and imagery in this suite are so fun! I hope you enjoy what I created for you. And don’t skip the video, because I share even more: my 5th of this first set of cards, another stretch card using the same measurements but with other products, Hobby Haven scrapbook page ideas by Janice Gilhooley, a card I forgot to share last week…
Below are photos of 7 of the 8 cards, a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find them in my online store), and measurements. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live.

It’s the beginning of December and the kick off to a new Stampin’ Up! bonus program called Product of the Month (POM). The Dec POM is not in my hands yet (I ordered it yesterday), but the designs of my projects that I’m sharing today in my FREE Online Paper Crafting Class on YouTube were influenced by two of the POM projects I shared in my email that I sent out yesterday to those in my newsletter list which also includes all the details for how to get your hands on this exclusive product. Click here to read through that email. (Click here to subscribe to my newsletter list so you don’t miss out on the news.) Click here to join me on YouTube for this online class.•
So today I’m going to demonstrate how to make a couple different styles of cards: the Pinched Paper Layout and the Zig Zag Fold. I’m using a variety of Stampin’ Up!® products including the Perennial Lavender & Brushed with Beauty Papers, the Charming Day & Beautiful Butterflies Bundles, and Blends Markers.
Be sure to watch my instructional video by clicking here* for measurements, tips and directions (or you can just click on this image below if you are already here in my blog post and can view it), scroll through the photos that follow, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
*My video goes live at 11 AM Central Time. So if you click the link early, you’ll have to wait. But this gives you the chance to join me during the Live if you are able.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video.

If you tuned into my free Live Online Paper Crafting Class on Wednesday, 10/29, you watched me give instructions on a couple different Accordion Paper Pouches featuring the Elegant Pine Snowflakes Suite. Towards the end of that video I also shared a couple more variations including this one. This adorable pouch was put together with a 6×6 sheet of designer paper from the Lights of Aurora pack. It’s a fun size for gifting a Ghirardelli chocolate square, cash, or a small note.
(The Lights of Aurora Suite is what we are featuring this month in the All Star Video Class Bundle. See info above.)

I have three more projects to share with you that I created with the Sweeter With You July 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit.
My full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout was SOOoo fun to make. I got the idea to distress/sand the light two-tone cardstock on the left page along the left side and bottom from a card I saw on Pinterest. And then the creative juices started flowing. I distressed the edges of the light Garden Green layers to expose the white core and inked the edges of the dark layers with Garden Green ink. Both techniques made the edges “pop” so much more.
For the right page, I added my outer four 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ photo mats 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the four others in-between, and then added the decorated pink square in the middle with Dimensionals.
To decorate that square, I sponged the edges with Strawberry Slush ink. Then I added the branch of berries and trimmed up the bottom of the stem. I added the flowers with the Flower Accents embellishments in the centers. And lastly I added a bow of Linen Thread that I had colored slightly with a bit of Garden Green ink.
You may notice too in this photo that I used a Bone Folder and Dimensionals to give lift and shadow to the strawberry, leaf and flower accents. I did this in fact for both pages. And then I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
For the left page I added the distressed 11-3/4″ x 11-3/4″ light Garden Green page layer to the 12″ x 12″ dark Garden Green. I added my upper right 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ photo mat 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the three others nearby, and then added the YUM pink letters along the left side with Dimensionals (which I also sponged with Strawberry Slush ink along the edges).
I finished off by building a larger and a smaller cluster of berries and flowers in the two bottom corners making sure I trimmed anything that extended beyond the edges of the light Garden Green.
And of course I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
Well, below is my completed card that I was working towards, and I’m quite happy with it. It’s sweet and simple. The “fabric” underneath is from a kit envelope flap. I added extra lines of marker (Granny Apple Green and Pool Party) to the lines in the plaid pattern to jazz it up a bit.
The bottom of the plaid “fabric” and the largest strawberry are attached with Dimensionals. The top of the plaid “fabric” and the smaller strawberries are just stuck down flat.
And the card base is the green kit card folded inside out. (There is a rectangular layer of white from the rest of the envelope on the inside for a place to write.)
I made and shared the blue version of this card a couple weeks back. This peach version includes “jazzed up” plaid background paper where I once again added extra lines of markers (Peach Pie and Poppy Parade).
You can watch my 7/23/25 video for the card assembly directions and tips. I had also promised to share this peach version, but I never got the demonstrating the plaid for both the above and below cards and had to wait to share them here.
OH! I also added in some Lemon Lolly ink with a Blending Brush in the background of both white layers.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on June 25th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for 14 card ideas.
If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit. The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own.
