I'm in love with the Traditions of Christmas Suite from the Stampin' Up!® Sep to Dec Mini Catalogue!  It is so pretty!  Did you know that Stampin' Up!® has a Virtual Class that you can purchase that uses this suite!  It's a new offering and I'm so excited!  You can purchase it in my Online Store!  Get the details below.

Check out this card I made using my favourite piece of Designer Series Paper in the pack!  So pretty!

Instructions

1. Cut Real Red cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2".  Fold and burnish on scoreline using Bone Folder to form card base.
2. Cut Gold Foil 4" x 5 1/4"
3. Cut Designer Series Paper 3 7/8" x 5 1/8"
4. Adhere Designer Series Paper to Gold Foil
5. Adhere to card base.
6. Cut out label from Gold Foil using Die
7. Cut 12" of ribbon and zig zag back and forth in bottom right corner of card base.
8. Adhere label over ribbon using Dimensionals
9. Stamp sentiment on Basic White cardstock using Real Red ink
10. Fussy cut using Paper Snips
11. Adhere to label using Dimensionals
12. Adhere embellishments
13. Cut Basic White cardstock 4" x 5 1/4"
14. Cut Designer Series Paper 3/4" x 5 1/4"
15. Adhere to right side of Basic White cardstock
16. Adhere to the inside of the card.

I know the Designer Series Paper is currently not available (expected back in late November).  You can substitute the Seasons of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper for a beautiful card as well as for the Virtual Class.  Here's a version I made with that paper!

You can find all of the supplies for this card in my Online Store.

Order your Virtual Class!  Live stream is Oct 23, 2025 at 2pm MT, but you can watch on Demand.  You'll make 4 projects using the products from the Traditional Christmas Suite.  You purchase the class and the supplies in my Online Store or use what you have at home!
