Grateful for you sketch card for scraps with Autumn Opulence

For my card today, I took the sketch I used on Wednesday and altered it slightly to make this card.  After I made the sending caring thoughts card, I looked over at the layout and wondered if I could fit the Scalloped Christmas Cheer dies in that center section.  My original thought was to use the second largest die; however, it was just too big for the space so I grabbed the next one down.  It was a little small but then I thought, what if I use a rectangular piece of dsp to fill the center.  How would that same 2 5/8" high piece work along with a 4" wide measurement?  The Scalloped Christmas Cheer die fit that measurement perfectly!  I then decided to cut the inside rectangle on the scalloped in a different color to add more interest.  I do love how this turned out!  Of course, you can use this layout for any season, occasion with any papers and stamps!  Let's see what you make.  Share with me over on my Facebook social page at kntdesigns stampers group social.  To watch the video tutorial replay over on my YouTube channel, click this direct link.

A Stampin' Up! sketch card with the 2025 Crafting Advent Calendar stamps

I recently received the new 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar for 2025 by Stampin' Up!  I wanted to see what it was all about.  My friend Tracy suggested I open one window each day and try to make a card with the contents.  Today is Day 1 and I started with just the stamps.  The stamps are all occasion stamps, even though the box itself is decorated for Christmas.  I thought I would make a card for a December birthday, using just the stamps and some additional cardstock/DSP.  Stampin' Up! sent out some sketches to those of us who participated in World Card Making Day last Saturday.  I decided to incorporate one of those sketches into my project for today.
