Happy Sunday! Hope you are having a great day and that you find some time for yourself today! Here in Ontario, our clocks went back an hour so now we have an extra hour for sleep and to accomplish things during the day!
I‘m spending the day in my room, working on my to do list and prepping projects for upcoming events while I listen to Christmas music! What a relaxing way to spend the day!
This week in our Crafty Session Facebook Live on Wednesday night, we created cards using the Stack and Shuffle Technique. I had seen this technique on social media and thought I had to give it a try. OMG, it’s so easy and what a great way to create multiple cards for different occasions at once.
So the idea with the Stack and Shuffle technique is that you stack three pieces of pattern papers together, and then you make 2 cuts into the pattern paper which creates the three layers for your Stack and Shuffle.
I thought I would show one of the cards close up so you can see the three different sections of pattern papers. I love how frosty and wintry this card looks!

Isn’t that a cool technique? I definitely will be using this again to create some different all occasions cards like birthday, and thank you!
Measurements and Supplies for my cards:
Winter Meadows Designers Series Paper – 3 3/4″ by 5″ – you need three different patterns
Basic White Cardstock Base – 4 1/4″ by 11″ score at 5 1/2″
Lost Lagoon Card stock layers – 4″ by 5 1/4″
Stylish Shape Dies
Stamp and Cut Emboss Machine

On my video, I shared another way to use this technique with the Garden Walk Designer Series Paper and More Wishes stamp set. I wanted to create some For You cards to give to family and friends. I used the same measurements as above, I switched out the pattern paper and the cardstock colours.
Aren’t those colours gorgeous together? My colour combination is Pretty Peacock, Poppy Parade, Basic White and Calypso Coral.

Hope you are having great start to your weekend! Its been a busy day around here. The weather was sunny and mild today, so I took advantage and decided to rake all the leaves in the front and back yard.After that, I spend the afternoon in my room, crafting with my friend Katie while we listened to Christmas music. It was a great way to relax, stamp and chat!

Hope you had a great weekend! It’s been a beautiful fall weekend around here as the weather was gorgeous. Saturday, I had a Pop Up Studio day and it was so good to work on my own projects while crafting with others. This is a new class that I have added to my schedule each month and I can’t wait for the next one! Did a little bit of meal prepping, shopping, working in my studio and downtime watching some of my favourite TV shows.
Last week in our weekly Crafty Session, we featured the Trucking Along Stamp Set that you can find in our Online Exclusives section in in our Online Store.
I was inspired by a card that I received from my team member Ashley that she created using the Autumn Leaves bundle. She created a fun fancy fold and I had to give it a try with the Trucking Along stamp set.
Here is the inside of the fancy fold. This card came together very quickly and one that you can easily mass produce for the Holiday season.
