Hello crafters, card makers, and stampers! What if I told you that you can make cards using an ENTIRE PACKAGE of designer paper with NO LEFTOVERS! Because it’s very possible my friends, and I’m going to show you how. Obviously designer paper is gorgeous, and many of us have quite a collection. However it’s time to use our favourites, enjoy their beauty, and use up every last scrap so we can make room for our next favourite paper.
On Friday night I started a new YouTube series called Stamping Past My Bedtime. This new series will be longer format videos in which I can share more in depth techniques, multiple projects, and how you can use your supplies to expand your creativity. In episode 1, I show you how you can make cards using an entire package of paper with no leftovers, and I have the recording here for you today so you don’t miss out on the fun. Enjoy!
The paper I’ve used for these cards is called Flight & Airy and is only available as a free choice when you purchase $60 until the end of February (while supplies last). Paired with the Timeless Arrangements Bundle, these cards have so many beautiful elements.
Since the addition of linen thread adds a lovely touch of delicacy, it is one my ‘go to’ embellishments for card making.
Because I am always in need of thank you cards, so I made all of mine with thank you or appreciation sentiments. However with the Timeless Arrangements Bundle you’ll have many types of sentiments to choose from.
Additionally, although I hadn’t added the gems yet when I took these photos, the Opaque Faceted Gems are a pretty and sparkly addition to these cards. Check them out on the cards in the video.

I have great news! Because I want to share some Opaque Faceted Gems with you! When you make a purchase of $60+ with me by Friday, January 26th 2024, I’ll send you a package!
Because I know you’d like to make the cards I shared with you today, I suggest ordering the Timeless Arrangements Bundle, choosing the Flight & Airy Designer Paper as your free Sale-a-bration gift from Stampin’ Up!, and then I’ll send you the gems! You’ll have nearly everything to create these stunning cards that use an entire package of paper with no leftovers.

Last but not least, I’d love to hear which card design is your favourite from those I’ve shared today. Please let me know in the comments! Mine is the first one!
I did it! I stayed up WAY past my bedtime and rewatched the video to craft along. Discovered that I only had 3 sheets of Lemon Lolly! 😳. So I improvised. Cut one sheet for the six small layers on the first card, used a half a sheet to make die cuts and then cut one full sheet into quarters and fronted four thick white card bases. Still needing 8 more substitutes found some LL patterned DSP and fronted the remaining 8 card bases. I substituted sentiments as well. I found several old Paper Pumpkin sayings that met my needs and fit well. I’m very happy how it turned out.
I’d love to see you do another use the whole package video soon
Thanks again! Blessings, Becky (located in eastern Tennessee)
It sounds like you make some beautiful cards using what you had on hand, so that’s perfect! I’m so glad you could use the video to get creative. Thanks for your kind comment.
This would have to be one of the loveliest demonstrations I have seen in quite some time. I have had a lovely time casing your cards, and I look forward to many more demo’s using the full 12 sheets. I am so pleased to have found your site – I now intend to do your “RAIN or SHINE” collection. Thankyou for all the hard work (and time) you have put into the Flight & Airy set.

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind comment. So sweet of you to take the time to make my day. I’m so glad you enjoyed creating the cards.
I cased your Flight & Airy cards with a !/2 pack of the DSP and am absolutely thrilled with all 22 cards! My favorite was the 2nd. I love how you presented and moved thru all the directions to make each set.. I am going to go back and look for the Rain or Shine video and try that one too. Looking forward to more. Greetings from Ontario.
I made these cards, I watched the video twice and then did screen shots. Looking forward to seeing more of your creations.
I made 44 cards with the flight and airy paper. I love to make as many cards out of my paper. I donate over a half to my church ministry. this was a good one. do you ever make a PDF of your directions? I had to watch your video 10 times to wright everything down. I do like fussy cutting so this was a lot of work but so worth it. Thank you can’t wait for more of your videos.
