An easy way to add texture and step up your project is by using an embossing folder! I stamped the leaf from Soft Seedlings in different fall colors: Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, and Crushed Curry ink -- and then used the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder to add texture to this easy card layout.
Card Measurements:
- 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Cajun Craze Cardstock
- 4" x 5-1/4" Very Vanilla Cardstock (inside)
- 2-1/2" x 5" Rustic Harvest Designer Paper
- 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" Very Vanilla Cardstock
- 3/4" x 2-1/2" Crumb Cake Cardstock

Ready to jump in and participate in the next Great, Big Card Swap?
How does it work? "Send a card! See them all! Get one back!"
It's sounds simple because it is! You create a regular full-size card for the monthly theme. Include a return postage stamp and a sticky note message inside. (I'll provide the return envelopes.) If you're sending ahead for the next month's theme, make sure to write the month on the envelope so I know to hold it for that month.
I will showcase all of the cards in a video so you can see what everyone else created and then I'll send them back! Everyone who sends a card will get one back!
November 2022 Theme: Christmas
Next Video Showcase: Tuesday, November 8 & 22, 7 pm CT on YouTube
December 2022 Theme: Thank You
- Send ONE Full Size Card
- Write "[Month] Card Swap" on the the envelope if sending for a future theme.
- Include return postage stamp. Envelopes will be provided. (Please do NOT include custom envelopes with your card.)
- Don't write inside! Include a sticky note or loose paper to say hello.

Frequently Asked Questions:
- Who can participate in this swap? EVERYONE! This swap is open to all stampers, including Stampin' Up! demonstrators.
- Can I use retired or non-Stampin' Up! products? Yes! I want EVERYONE to participate regardless of their paper-crafting collection! I will sort cards before swapping so that stampers who do use current Stampin' Up! product will get cards with current Stampin' Up! product in return.
- Can I send more than one card? Please limit to one swap card per person per month.
- Can I sign the back of my card? Yes! Please leave the inside blank so the person who receives your card can send it on and bless someone else. But feel free to include your usual maker marking on the back.
- What happens if my card doesn't arrive in time? Postal transit times are unpredictable. If your card arrives late, don't worry! I will showcase it in the next showcase video and make sure that you get a return swap!
I would love for you to include a note inside the card -- a little about yourself or just a happy greeting to the person who gets your card. Please note, I will remove any solicitations (business cards, business links, etc.)
Attention International Stampers! I would love for you to participate in this swap! Use this Paypal link to pay $5 USD for 3 return postage stamps. (I'll hold them with your name on them to use for future swaps.) I'm worried about transit times, so be sure to mail early or work ahead one month! Mark your envelope with the month/theme you intend to submit the swap.
