Not really… š But what a fun card to give to someone when the occasion DOES call for cocktails (or at least a bit of celebrating).
The Nothingās Better Than Stamp Set and the coordinating Love You More Than Dies are so much fun! And if you are not into cocktails, you could trade that word and image out for either cookies, coffee, or chocolate.
Here are the details if you want to recreate this card yourself.
Products I usedā¦Ā See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them inĀ my online store.
Measurementsā¦
Basic Black Cardstock
4-1/4ā³ x 5-1/2ā³
2ā x 8-1/2ā scored parallel to the short end at just a bit over 5-1/4ā
2-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
Balmy Blue Cardstock
4ā x 5-1/4ā
2-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
In Good Taste Designer Paper
3-7/8ā x 5-1/8ā
Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper
2ā x 5-1/4ā
Scrap for die-cutting word
Directionsā¦
Add a small bit of Adhesive Sheet behind the scrap of glimmer paper, then die-cut word. Adhere to the small Basic Black piece as shown – with a bit of a curve. Stamp top sentiment image with VersaMark Ink. Carefully add Silver Emboss Powder, tap off excess, and heat with Heat Tool. Repeat with the lower sentiment image. Add the Rhinestone and set aside.
Stamp the other images on the Balmy Blue piece with Tuxedo Black and VersaMark Inks. Add the Rhinestone and set aside.
Connect the smaller portion of the folded Basic Black “flap fold” piece to the back of the Balmy Blue piece so the flap is coming over the top. Adhere to the Basic Black layer. Then adhere the designer paper piece on top of the Balmy Blue.
Next add the stamped Balmy Blue piece to the inside of the card (on the designer paper) as shown.
Fold the flap shut. Add the glimmer paper, then add the stamped Basic Black piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue so it is covering the Balmy Blue piece underneath.
I think I need to make a few other versions of this card now. It was so fun to make!

I just put together my first set of alternate projects using the November 2020 Jolly Gingerbread Paper Pumpkin monthly subscription kit! And I’m excited to share them with you today!
This festive kit contained the supplies shown below to make fifteen cute, gingerbread-themed mini cards or gift card holders.
But I never assemble my kits as is, because I like to show subscribers other ways to use those supplies. I like to think outside the boxā¦see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So today I’m sharing with you…
How to make 30 holiday cards from one kit
A cute and easy treat box (could make 15)
Tips for making the intended projects
And an adorable 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
Watch my videoĀ first by clickingĀ hereĀ to get to get measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on this image below if you are alreadyĀ in my blog post). Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked toĀ my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then be sure to visit my blog again soon, because I have many more alternate projects that Iāll be sharing on December 3rd (including a version of Vy Tran’s pop-up that she shared in the Paper Pumpkin Fan Club) and again on December 10th. And…a few of my projects will also be featured in Stampin’ Up!’s Paper Pumpkin Live the week after Thanksgiving.
Here are the mini cards/gift card holders the kit instructs how to make. (Click hereĀ for a link to Stampinā Up!ās how-to video to help you assemble these as intended.)

Last night my Stampers With ART group gathering virtually for one of our special Team Gatherings. This time I sent each of them a special make-n-take packet of supplies – pieces from the Boho Indigo Product Medley and coordinating cardstock cut with the Curvy Dies. We made a box and a matching card. Because of the variations of the supplies I sent out AND because they provided their own stamp set and embellishments, I shared a couple options for them.

I decided to make a Thanksgiving version of my Gift Box In a Card project that I shared on November 4th. You’ll want to check that post out to see the how-to video. Watch that video first, then come back here and apply that information to these products and measurements to recreate what I’m sharing today.
Products I usedā¦Ā See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them inĀ my online store.
Imperial Measurementsā¦
Very Vanilla Thick Cardstock
5-1/2ā x 8-1/2ā scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4ā ā then cut out a 2ā wide by 1-1/2ā deep section Ā½ā from the right
1-7/8″ x 1-7/8″ for the top of the box
1/2″ x 3-1/2″
Brass Foil Sheets
3ā x 3ā scored Ā½ā in on all four sides
Two pieces that areĀ 3/8″ x 5-1/2″
Poinsettia Place Designer Paper (wood-grain pattern)
3″ x 5″
1-3/4″ x 1-3/4″
3/4″ x 5-1/2″
1/4″ x 5-1/2″
Poinsettia Place Designer Paper (pinecone pattern)

3/8″ x 5-1/2″
All the Trimmings Ribbon (Old Olive)
11ā
Tips…
Be sure to attach the Celebration Tidings die-cut and wood-grain paper to the front of the card before cutting the 1-1/2″ x 2″ notch from the top. (I used the largest of the dies and only half the shape from the 3″ x 5″ piece.)
Stamp and color the images next. (I used the Stampin’ Write Markers: Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive from the Regals, So Saffron and Pear Pizzazz from the Subtles, and Soft Suede from the Neutrals.)
Then add the strips of foil and designer paper.
Punch the Very Vanilla strip. Stamp the sentiment. Then add it to the lower left with Dimensionals.
Cover up portions of the sentiment stamps with tape, ink them up, peel off the tape, then stamp them on the inside of the card. (Of course color the image image, too.)
Be sure to tie the ribbon around the wood-grain paper/Very Vanilla layered squares piece before adding it to the top off the box with Dimensionals.
Did I mention yet that we are already decorating for Christmas at our house? We will still celebrate Thanksgiving and just planned out what all four of us want to eat. But I think we were all ready for some festiveness with this pandemic. Our son, Nick wanted to finish up a TikTok he had started a little over a month ago when the Fall colors were at their height. Plus we had some unusually warm days the weekend of the 7th which made putting lights on the roof and trees for my husband (and Nick who helped) very enjoyable.
Did any of you decorate super early this year?

If you are receiving this post via email, click here so you can see the video below and view it from my blog.
That special OnStage preorder period ended, but now all demonstrators will be able to preorder from ALL the products in those publications starting December 1st. So guess what!? I’ll need to do another unboxing video in early December. Stay tuned!

Otherwise links to the online versions will post on January 5th, the same day the products go live in my online store.
If you watched my unboxing video, then you saw that beautiful Golden Garden Designer Acetate from the Fine Art Floral Suite that coordinates with the Fine Art Floral Designer Paper. I shared how one of the sheets of acetate lines up with one of the sheets of designer paper. WELL…there is one more pair! So I took those two pairs and cut 4″ x 5-1/4″ pieces from them as shown (while they were stacked in their acetate/designer paper pairs).
And I came up with these super easy but stunning cards.
Products I usedā¦Ā See below for a complete list of current products linked to where you can find them in my online store. Remember many of these items are not available until January 5th.
Measurements per card…
Whisper White Thick Cardstock
4-1/4″ x 11″ scored parallel to short side at 5-1/2″
1″ x 4″
Golden Garden Designer Acetate
4″ x 5-1/4″
Fine Art Floral Designer Paper
4″ x 5-1/4″
1/2″ x 4″
Gold Foil Sheet
1/2″ x 4″
Fine Art 3/8″ Ribbon
10″
Directions…
Cut the layered and lined up acetate/designer paper
Stamp sentiment from the Art Gallery Stamp Set from that suite using Mossy Meadow ink onto 1″ x 4″ strip of Whisper White Thick Cardstock. Then adhere to 1/2″ x 4″ strip of Gold Foil and attach that to the top of the acetate. Peel off the protective layer on the back of the acetate. (I made 12 of these cards and forgot to do that!)
Then attach the acetate to the designer paper by placing the adhesive behind the sentiment strip.
Tie the 10″ of Fine Art Ribbon around a Clear Block C as shown, slide off the block, and cut the large loop to get a 2″ long end on the right and a 3″ long end on the left.
Then wrap and adhere the those ends from the front (under the sentiment) to the back. Add a Glue Dot under the center of the knot to secure the ribbon.
Then attach this all to the front of the card base.
Stamp the sentiment on the inside of the card and add the 1/2″ by 4″ strip of coordinating designer paper.
As I mentioned, I made 12 of these birthday cards. And I made them quickly. I hope my “November birthday” Stampers With ART Stars can forgive me about forgetting to take the protective film off the acetate.
