Hobby Haven Suite Cards

Happy Friday, hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Today I’m sharing a couple card using the Online Exclusive Hobby Haven Suite Collection.

Bring your favorite pastimes to life with the Hobby Haven 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper. Charming illustrations inspired by baking, sewing, reading, and other simple pleasures make this paper perfect for creating personalized cards and gift packaging. Two sheets of precut pieces and plenty of fussy cutting potential make it easy to add depth and detail to your handmade designs.

Next a card inspired by one completed by demonstrators at a Stampin’ Up! event. I’ve added a mat and any shaped punch can be used with the design.

Finally, add the sections you cut off on the inside of the card, why waste them!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my family, friends and fellow crafters!

Today is a day when families and friends gather to express gratitude for the year’s blessings over a shared feast. The holiday has evolved from a harvest celebration to a national tradition of togetherness and thankfulness through centuries of tradition building, mythmaking, and cultural change.

Here’s a second card to enjoy today.

November Sunday Stampers

Happy Sunday! Today my Sunday Stampers meet for the last time for 2025 and I’m sharing the cards we will be making today.

Featured products:

  • Gingerbread Man Bundle
  • Brushed with Beauty Suite Collection – New Online Exclusive
  • Hobby Haven Suite – New Online Exclusive
  • Banner Sayings Bundle – New Online Exclusive

First up is a pocket card using the Gingerbread Man Bundle. While they call it the gingerbread “man” bundle, the ladies will get the choice of Flirty Flamingo or Pook Party for  a gingerbread woman or man card. Silver Foil paper was used as it reminds me of a cookie sheet.

Next, a beautiful card with all the products from the Brushed with Beauty Suite Collection. This suite has two bundles, Petals of Beauty and Words of Beauty. There is new 12″ x 12″ Vellum, the Beautiful Pattern 3D Embossing folder and Pearls of Beauty embellishments.

Here is the inside. There is a pocket on the right for a gift card if needed.

Next, Hobby Haven card, great way to use 4″ x 6″ pieces of designer series paper.

Finally, side view of the Hobby Haven card.

Earlier this month a new set of On-Line Exclusive products were released. Today I’m featuring the Brushed with Beauty Suite, some call this a mega suite since it has two bundles.

  • Words of Beauty Bundle
  • Petals of Beauty Bundle
  • Vellum 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper
  • Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder
  • Pearls of Beauty

The front of the card features a variety of the die cuts and images, along with the designer series paper and vellum. Textured Notes Dies were used for the rectangles on the front.

Next. the inside of the card featuring words from the Words of Beauty Bundle and flowers from the Petals of Beauty Bundle.

Flower colors – Petal Pink and Calypso Coral along with Darling Duckling and Crushed Curry.

Finally, a side view of the card. On the designer series paper side is a pocket to hold a gift card or even cash, if needed. The designer series paper is 5½” x 6″ for a gift card holder or 5½” x 4″ if you don’t need the holder.
