Elegant Greenery Card Using the Greenery Lane Bundle and Nature Walk DSP

 Hi Friends!

This handmade card was created using the Stampin’ Up! Greenery Lane bundle paired with Nature Walk Designer Series Paper, and it’s a great example of how natural elements and layered greenery can create a calm, elegant design.

Handmade greenery card created with the Stampin’ Up! Greenery Lane bundle and Nature Walk Designer Series Paper featuring layered leaves, soft teal and neutral tones, gold accents, and a “here for you” sentiment.

For this project, I focused on letting the greenery take centre stage while keeping the overall layout clean and balanced. The layered leaves add depth and movement, while the Nature Walk Designer Series Paper brings in subtle pattern and warmth without overpowering the focal point. This combination works beautifully for many occasions and is especially nice when you want a card that feels thoughtful and timeless.

One of the things I love about working with greenery is how versatile it is. By changing the sentiment or colours slightly, this same layout could easily be adapted for birthdays, thank-you cards, sympathy, or encouragement. The key is giving the layers enough space so each element can be appreciated.

This card was created during a live stamping demonstration where I shared tips for layering die cuts, choosing focal points, and balancing patterned paper with solid cardstock. If you’ve ever struggled with knowing how much is “just enough,” this project is a great one to watch.

The full video replay is included below so you can follow along step by step and create this card at your own pace.

Toolbox Z Fun Fold Birthday Card with Trusty Tools

 Hi Friends!

Tonight during my live demonstration, I featured a bold fun fold project using the Trusty Tools bundle. The card design is called the Toolbox Z Fun Fold (inspired by Rachel Tessman), and it really does look like a little toolbox filled with tools. This design makes a perfect masculine birthday card and is sure to bring a smile to anyone who receives it.


The Z fold design gives the card extra dimension and movement, while the bright toolbox panels and silver accents bring the look of a real tool chest to life. The Trusty Tools bundle provides the perfect dies and images to make this project come together with plenty of detail and personality.



During the live demonstration, I walked through the full step-by-step process to create this Toolbox Z Fun Fold card. I shared tips on cutting, folding, and assembling the toolbox panels, as well as ideas for stamping and die cutting the tools to make them look realistic.

Here's a list of supplies and measurements used on this card:

Trusty Tools Birthday Card with Country Woods Designer Paper

 Hi Friends!

Today I’m sharing a bold and fun birthday card that I created during my live demonstration featuring the Trusty Tools bundle. This bundle is perfect for making masculine cards, handyman-themed projects, or just adding a fun tool twist to your stamping.



For this card, I paired the bundle with the Country Woods designer paper, cutting the DSP into strips and laying them in a pattern for the background. This is such a fantastic way to use up those smaller pieces of paper that we all seem to collect. The wood-toned colours give a rustic feel that really makes the drill stand out.

The highlight of this card is the drill itself, which I created in Poppy Parade and Basic Black for a striking two-tone look. During the video tutorial, I shared tips and tricks on how to piece the die cuts together and add little touches that make the drill look realistic and dimensional.

Whether you need a birthday card for the handyman in your life, or just love the playful vibe of this bundle, this project is sure to inspire you.

You can watch the full step-by-step video tutorial below, where I walk through the entire process of creating this card. It includes the layout, tips on working with smaller DSP pieces, and how to create the two-tone drill.

This Trusty Tools birthday card is a keeper, and I know I’ll be making more of them. I hope it inspires you to grab your scraps of Country Woods paper and try it out yourself.
