Pals Blog Hop – Copper Tea Tin & 3×3 Cards!
Welcome to the Pals’ Blog Hop! We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects for “Layer It Up” – showcasing our favorite Designer Series Paper and embellishments. You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
I cannot believe it took me this long to purchase and create with the Copper Tea Tins from the Annual Catalog. The fact that they have been available for a year-and-a-half and I never bothered to add them an order until now completely baffles me! First, I had no idea they came in a set of FOUR and that they were sized to fit 3 x 3 note cards. Shows how much I paid attention. Second, they pair perfectly with the stunningly, gorgeous and ever-so-popular Brightly Gleaming Suite. My creations today show you just how well they work together!
Begin by wrapping a 2 1/2 x 12 piece of Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper around a Copper Tea Tin, securing it with Tear & Tape Adhesive. (Leave the seam in the front so that it will be covered by the focal point you will create in the next step).
Crop a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock using a die-cutting and embossing machine and the largest Stitched Shapes Circle die. Adhere with Snail Adhesive.
Pop out four sprigs from Brightly Gleaming Foil Elements. Adhere around the circle die-cut using Mini Glue Dots that has been rolled between your fingers to remain hidden behind the sprigs.
Adhere three Star Designer Elements as shown. (LOVE these elements, a must-have).
Wrap the top with the 1/2″ Classic Weave Ribbon, securing it with Mini Glue Dots. Tie a bow and adhere as shown with a Mini Glue Dot. (It is easier to tie a bow separately so that you can manipulate it to show the words in the proper direction).
Use a Clear Block D (or a Stamparatus) to stamp the largest ornament (Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set) in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Gold Foil that has been rubbed with an Embossing Buddy. Cover with Copper (or Clear) Stampin’ Emboss Powder, flick to remove the excess and set with a Heat Tool.
Crop with the coordinating Gleaming Ornaments Punch. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp the “Merry Christmas” sentiment in Pretty Peacock Ink onto a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock. Snip with Paper Snips. Adhere with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Cut a piece of Very Vanilla Thick Cardstock to 6″ x 11″. Score at 3″, rotate and cut every 3″ to create THREE 3″ x 3″ card bases.
Cut three pieces of Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper to a 2 7/8 square. Adhere with Snail Adhesive.
Crop three pieces of Copper Foil with a die-cutting machine and the largest Stitched Shape Square Die. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Crop three pieces of Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper with a die-cutting machine and the 2nd largest Stitched Shape Square Die. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use a Clear Block C (or a Stamparatus) to stamp the smallest ornament (Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set) in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Gold Foil that has been rubbed with an Embossing Buddy. Cover with Copper (or Clear) Stampin’ Emboss Powder, flick to remove the excess and set with a Heat Tool.
Crop with the coordinating Gleaming Ornaments Punch. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp the “Merry Christmas” sentiment in Pretty Peacock Ink or Night of Navy Ink onto a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock. Snip with Paper Snips. Adhere with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Tie three bows of 1/4″ Copper Trim (currently on backorder) and adhere with Mini Glue Dots.
More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Don’t forget to show us some love by commenting on our creations.

Stamp Review Crew Brings You: Cup of Christmas
Cup of Christmas! Stampin’ Up!’s very first “REVERSIBLES” Photopolymer Stamp Set.
The Stamp Review Crew, a group of stampers from around the globe that love Stampin’ Up! products, is hopping and featuring the Cups of Christmas Bundle from the 2019 Holiday Catalog. I haven’t had fix of my #madforplaid obsession, so today’s card, yet again features my favorite Cherry Cobbler and Basic Black Buffalo Check.
You can purchase any of the items listed above by clicking on the image. It will take you directly to my online store. Although the Mini Curvy Keepsake Box was not used in my creation below, it is must-have and you SAVE 10% by buying the stamp set and dies as a bundle, a WIN, WIN!
Cut a piece of Basic Black Cardstock to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score and fold at 4 1/4.
Use the Stamparatus to stamp the Buffalo Check Background Stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto a piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock. Note: It may take a few applications to get good coverage on the black ink.
Cut down to 4 x 5 1/4, following the edges of the check pattern. Adhere to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Layer and adhere a 4 1/4 x 2 3/4 piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock to a 4 1/2 x 3 piece of Basic Black Cardstock together and to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Crop a piece of Basic Black Cardstock using a die-cutting and embossing machine and the 4 x 2 5/8″ Stitched Rectangle Die. Use a Paper Trimmer to cut 1/2″ from the bottom. Adhere the two pieces of Basic Black 3/8″ Scalloped Edge Ribbon to the seam you just cut. Adhere to the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock with Snail Adhesive, ensuring it is even on all sides.
Tie a bow of Basic Black 3/8″ Scalloped Edge Ribbon, adhering as shown with a Mini Glue Dot.
Use the Stamparatus to stamp two buffalo check designs in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto a piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock using the stamp from Tiny Keepsakes Stamp Set. Crop the two mugs using the Cup of Cheer Dies. TIP: Make sure the handle of the mug is set in the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock that doesn’t have a stamped image.
Crop the following accents for the mugs: holly & branches in Mossy Meadow; holly berries, bows, & candy canes in Cherry Cobbler, candy cane stripes in Whisper White. Assemble and adhere with Mini Glue Dots and Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Adhere to the card as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use the Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Basic Black Cardstock that has been rubbed with an Embossing Buddy. Cover with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder, flick to remove the excess and set with a Heat Tool. Cut to size and slant the ends with Paper Snips. Adhere with Snail Adhesive.
