Stack and Shuffle Technique Cards

I used this stamping technique some 4 or 5 years ago for one of our stamping events.  The beautiful paper we have this year brought it to mind.

I have a photograph where I did not use the mats (see below), and the video shows using the stamp technique with a mat.  You get to be the decider.

The directions can be downloaded HERE.  Take just a moment to read them along with the video.  I show you how it's done! 

These are the first cards I made.   I forgot how pretty that Valentine paper was!

I hope you give this stamping technique a try!

Christmas Ornaments Cards - 2026 Christmas Card Series

Today I'm presenting a Christmas Card.  In January?  Yes, I do make Christmas Cards year-round and now especially with this huge snow/ice storm sweeping across the nation, I was in a particular mood to make some Christmas cards.

On the video, I have a few tips as well.  

The two cards here are from a series I made this past November for my Stamp-A-Stack.  I enjoy making these so much, I added 7 or 8 more to my Christmas Card stash for later this year.

Click HERE for the link to the directions for the cards. 

I'd appreciate a comment if you decide to make them.

Top 5

I haven't put together a top 5 list in quite awhile.

Using this most gorgeous paper (you'll see more of it very soon) I needed to make it the 'top of the list'!



My Top 5 Must-Haves for Card Making!

1.Meandering Meadows 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 Cm) Designer Series Paper
162735s This is the most gorgeous paper! Use #loveitchopit to make 48 beautiful cards. They come together in almost no-time.
2.Wanted To Say Dies
161594s These are stand-alone dies and are SO useful! Use any color paper to create customizable greetings for your cards.
3.Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder
158655s Use this folder for an edge on a card, or to emboss the entire background on the front of a card.
4.Layered Florals 3 D Embossing Folder
162935s This folder also makes amazing backgrounds for cards or use it for different techniques: blackout, the edge of a card, watercoloring - so many ideas!
5.Mini Alphabet Dies
162934s These small letters are perfect for adding a name. Emboss the letters and add ink for even more interest! Cut the color letter, then cut in black cardstock for a shadow to make your letters stand out!
