I had a hard time choosing a stamp set to feature in November since Christmas is coming so soon. So I turned to the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog and picked a stamp set that includes lots of "accessory" stamps and would be ideal for card-making throughout the year. The At Home With You stamp set was the obvious choice! The colors I chose for this month's card designs lend themselves well to all occasions cards. This first card is my favorite -- using the stamp set in the classic way to create a door scene. I love that the framelits include a die that will die cut the door on three sides so that it opens!
I stamped the door on Whisper White cardstock and then again on Tranquil Tide. I added some detail with the Tranquil Tide marker and then cut out the center of the door to attach to the white door. A second piece of Whisper White cardstock was glued to the back to reveal the inside message.
I used the Daffodil Delight and Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends to color the flowers, wreath, and candle. For the Tranquil Tide coloring, instead of using the marker directly, I used a blender pen to pick up the ink color from the lid of the ink pad. This allowed me to get a lighter shade so the color didn't overpower the stamped lines of the image.

I intended to post this before Thanksgiving. You may be moving on to holiday crafting, but this card design can be used for any occasion!
When the card is open, you can see the flaps covering the inside sentiment are attached to both sides of the card. You'll want to use a strong adhesive like Tear & Tape Adhesive to keep the flaps in place.

Today I am sharing the fun fold card that I designed for my October Stamp of the Month Club card kit. I first saw the step panel card on display boards on the Hawaii and Thailand incentive trips. I've been wanting to try one for awhile and thought this was the perfect product suite for it. I created the measurements around the quilt square from the Quilted Christmas designer paper.
The love this card folds flat to fit into a regular Medium size envelope, but when you fold it down, it reveals the sentiment. The card is designed to stand on it's own to be displayed.
Here are the measurements that I used for this card.
4 ¼” x 11” Real Red/Garden Green cardstock
3 ¾” x 5 ½” Garden Green/Real Red cardstock
3 ¼” x 6 ½” Whisper White cardstock
3” x 3” Quilted Christmas Designer Paper
1” x 3 ¾” Whisper White cardstock (embossed)
1” x 3 ½” Whisper White cardstock (for banner)
Watch my video tutorial for some tips on assembly and more project ideas using the Quilted Christmas stamp set. I also share a sneak peek of the November Stamp of the Month Club and the three projects I designed using the At Home With You stamp set.
