Stamping With Friends is starting your year off with Step Card inspiration. There are so many variations on step cards so I am sure you will be impressed with all our lovely cards.
Along with a new card design I am also sharing a new Bundle for the January-April catalog. This catalog goes live on January 7th. Time to get your wish list together!
How adorably cute is this birthday card? I paired the Storybook Friends Bundle with the sweet Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper.
This step card is easy to create. A few folds create the steps, and a tent piece creates the main image.

Stamptastic Friends are sharing Simple Stamping cards today! I am sure you are going to see some stunning simple cards.
For me, I love simple cards. Life can get busy, and many times it is hard to find an hour to make a fancy, layered card.
Nothing works better than the perfect sentiment and some beautiful Designer Series Paper for making a simple stamped card. I am sharing an angle cut card design that actually makes two cards at the same time. This is perfect for busy folks.
Notice this oh-so-pretty DSP? It will be in the new January-April Mini Catalog. Such sweet and spring-like paper.
Another bonus with this design is that it is easy for a beginner stamper or someone who may have limited supplies.
Measurements for this card:
8 ½” x 5 ½” card base. Score at 4 ¼”
DSP 4 ¼” x 4 ¼”
Accent strip ¼” x 5” trim off extra after adhering to card front.

Inclusion and diversity are important to me and honoring that through card making makes me happy.
In 2024, Hanukkah begins at sundown on Wednesday, Dec. 25, and ends at sundown on Thursday, Jan. 2.
Hanukkah is the festival of lights and means “dedication” in Hebrew. It celebrates the victory of Macabee soldiers, or Jewish freedom fighters, over the Syrian Greek army.
The Macabees reclaimed the holy temple in Jerusalem after their victory. The temple had been converted into a place of idol worship. They located enough oil to light the temple’s menorah for one night, but it miraculously burned for eight days, long enough to bring new oil.
It seems to me blue, and silver are the colors of Hanukkah, but I am not sure. I picked Blueberry Bushel because it is such a vibrant blue and it really shines next to the silver. I found the chocolate coins (gelt) in New York City and grabbed them to add to the celebration.
How do you celebrate inclusion with your card making. I would love to hear new ideas.
Thanks for hopping with us today. I am sure you will be inspired.
