Peaceful Garden Suite Card for Rosh Hashanah

September 25, 2025September 25, 2025 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

Today’s card features the Peaceful Garden Suite from the September-December 2025 Mini Catalog. Stampin’ Up! demonstrators got to purchase these products back in June to use in a Creativity Now event. I always eagerly await the holiday catalog to see what products I might be able to use for my cards, as it isn’t too often that Stampin’ Up! comes out with stamp sets with Jewish themes. It is amazing how so many products from the catalog can be used for other than Christmas cards! As soon as I saw this suite, with the beautiful Designer Series Papers in various shades of blue, as well as the dies to cut two different doves, I knew it would be perfect for both Jewish New Year cards as well as Hanukkah cards. While the traditional symbols of Rosh Hashanah are apples, honey, pomegranates and shofars, doves are frequently used as they symbolize peace, healing and a better world.

Measurements

Secret Sea cardstock – cut one piece at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ for card base; one piece at 2 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ for label
Misty Moonlight cardstock – 2 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
Basic White cardstock – 4 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ for label and two doves; 4″ x 5 1/4″ for inside of card
Glimmer paper – one strip dark blue 1″ x 4″; one strip light blue 1″ x 3″
Peaceful Garden DSP – 4″ x 5 1/4″

Here is how I made the card.

Fold Secret Sea card base in half. Adhere Designer Series Paper to card front.
Run piece of Misty Moonlight through embossing machine with the Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder. This piece is small so you will have to center it around the middle of the design. Adhere to center front of card.
Run the Secret Sea piece of cardstock for the label through a die cutting machine with the larger of the two label dies from the Peace on Earth die set.
Run the Basic White cardstock cut at 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ through the die cutting machine with the smaller label die and the two doves. Stamp the greeting from the Mazel Tov stamp set (an Online Exclusive set introduced in July 2025) with Secret Sea ink. Adhere to Secret Sea label.

Adhere the entire label to the center of the embossed Misty Moonlight piece with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Run dark blue glimmer paper strip through die cutting machine with the large and small leaf images. Adhere the large leaf to the right side of the label. Adhere the small leaf to the smaller dove. Adhere doves to card front. Use the fine tip of either the Secret Sea Stampin’ Write Marker or Stampin’ Blend to make a dot for the eyes. Adhere one of the Hues of Blue Flowers embellishments in the lower left corner of the label.

For the inside of the card, adhere the Wishing You and Peace, Love & Joy greetings from the Peace on Earth stamp set on one acrylic block in order to stamp both at the same time. Stamp with Secret Sea ink.
Run the lighter blue glimmer paper strip through a die cutting machine with the large leaf die. Adhere to right side of the stamped image.
Adhere piece to inside of card.

Merry Christmas and a Happy Chanukah!

Wishing you all the best in 2025!

Celebrate the Miracle

December 18, 2023December 17, 2023 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

I’m back again after another long break. Wishing my Jewish friends and customers a very belated Happy Chanukah! I’ve been busy making cards for the last two months but haven’t had time to do any blogging. I recently finished a major renovation project in my living room and dining room which affected my annual holiday card workshops due to the chaos going on around me. I usually begin my workshops in early November but had to push them back a few weeks. My last workshop was yesterday and now I can finally start getting back into more normal routines. I will be blogging my holiday cards for the next two weeks.

Here are photos of my living room and dining room. My home is over 100 years old and the downstairs floors, steps going upstairs and upstairs hallway were covered with old white carpet that was here when I bought the home 18 years ago. I had the carpet removed and wood floors were refinished to their original state. Paint job, all new furniture in both rooms and new light fixtures. I can’t believe it is my house! I’m looking forward to the fun part, shopping around for accessories, after the new year!

I held one Chanukah card workshop using the beautiful new and very long-awaited Stampin’ Up! stamp set, Celebrate the Miracle, and even managed to get my cards mailed out on time. I did three different cards. No instructions for how I made the card, however I have listed the cutting measurements for each. Supplies used are at the end of this post.

Happy Chanukah Cards

December 24, 2022December 24, 2022 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

Today is the seventh and next-to-last day of Chanukah. Here are two of the cards I designed to send to family and friends. Since Stampin’ Up! hasn’t had a Chanukah stamp set in many years I have had to purchase stamp sets from other companies. This year I purchased a new stamp set and coordinating dies from Honey Bee. I use Stampin’ Up products such as cardstock, Designer Series Paper and Specialty Papers, ink and embellishments. I also use retired products that I’ve kept, knowing that they work well with my limited blue, silver and gold color palette. This year I used Starry Sky, one of the 2022-2024 In Colors in several of the cards. It is such a bright and pretty blue and it worked beautifully. I also used greetings from the Brightest Glow stamp set in the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. I loved that many of the greetings, while intended for Christmas cards, would be perfect for my cards because Chanukah is also known as the Festival of Lights and some of the greetings include the word “light.”

Here is how I made this card.

Card base – cut a piece of Basic White Thick cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″, fold and crease with a bone folder.
Cut a piece of the variegated paper from the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper at 4″ x 5 1/4″ and run through a die cutting machine with the largest Deckled Edge Rectangle die. Adhere to card base.
Cut a piece of the silver dot paper from the Silver & Gold Specialty Paper at 3″ x 4 1/4″ and run through die cutting machine with the third largest Deckled Edge Rectangle Die and adhere to card front. This DSP was a free Sale-A-Bration item earlier this year.
Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 2 3/4″ x 4 1/4″ and run through die cutting machine with the fourth largest Deckled Edge Rectangle Die. Flick Wink of Stella and Night of Navy and Starry Sky ink onto piece with Stampin’ Blends.
To make the candles, cut 1/2″ strips of the Starry Sky paper from the 2022-2024 In Color 6″x6″ Glimmer Paper and back with 1/2″ pieces of an adhesive sheet. For the flames, cut a scrap piece of Silver Foil Paper and back with an adhesive sheet. Use scrap pieces of Basic White cardstock for the candle backing pieces. Use the candle and flame dies from the Sentiment Silhouettes Dies. Die cut nine candles and nine backing pieces. Adhere together. Cut nine flames. Arrange candles on the Basic White Deckled Edge Rectangle piece and adhere with liquid glue. Adhere candle flames.
Stamp greeting with Starry Sky ink at bottom of the piece. The greeting I used is from the Honey Bee stamp set. Adhere to card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp greeting with Starry Sky ink on inside of card.

Here is how I made this card. I got the idea from Pinterest and apologize for not remembering who it came from. I had thought of using DSP strips for the candles and this design shows off the DSP very nicely.

Card base – cut a piece of Starry Sky cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″, fold and crease with a bone folder.
Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″. Run through embossing machine with the Peacock Embossing Folder (retired) and adhere to card front. I love this folder and it looks like flames!
Cut eight strips of Designer Series Paper at 3/8″ x 3″ and one strip at 1/2″ x 3″. I used paper from the Sun Prints DSP and the 2022-2024 In Color 6″x6″ DSP. Arrange the strips on the card front, placing the 1/2″ strip in the middle. Adhere with liquid glue.
Make the flames by using any bird punch that has a separate wing. I used a retired punch to do this. Use a scrap piece of Gold Foil paper and punch nine pieces. Adhere with either liquid glue or a glue dot.
Stamp greeting with Starry Sky ink on scrap piece of Basic White cardstock. Run through die cutting machine with the smallest label die from the Seasonal Labels die set. Adhere over candles with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 4″ x 5 1/4″ and stamp a greeting from the Brightest Glow stamp set with Starry Sky ink. Adhere to inside of card.

Apple Harvest Rosh Hashanah Card

September 30, 2022September 30, 2022 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

My card today features the Apple Harvest stamp set from the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog and the Apple Blossoms Dies, one of several sets in the Perfect Partners promotion that ends today. The minute I laid eyes on this stamp set in the catalog I knew I had to have it because it would be perfect for making cards for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, that I celebrated earlier this week. Stampin’ Up! hasn’t had any stamps specifically for Jewish holidays in many years, so each year I eagerly await the annual and holiday mini catalogs to see if there are any stamp sets that I can adapt. For the last few years there have been sets that include stamps with pomegranates, grapes and doves that are all images used in cards for this holiday. I lucked out again this year with the apples!

Here is how I made the card.

Card base – Cut a piece of Petal Pink cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″, fold and crease with a bone folder.
Cut a piece of one of the Petal Pink sheets in the Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper pack at 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ and adhere to card front.
Cut a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock at 3 3/4″ x 5 1/8″ and run through a die cutting & embossing machine with the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder. Adhere to card front. Please note that this embossing folder is retired. I love how the folder echos the scrolls in the Fancy Frame die, which is why I chose to use it.
Cut a piece of the Petal Pink and gold dot sheet of DSP at 3 1/8″ x 4 3/4″. Cut a piece of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper at 3 1/2″ x 5″. Cut a piece of adhesive sheet the same size and adhere to the paper. Run through a die cutting and embossing machine with the scroll die from the Fancy Frames Dies. Remove adhesive sheet backing and adhere to the Petal Pink DSP.

Cut two pieces of Shimmery White cardstock at 3″ square and stamp apple image from the Apple Harvest stamp set with Memento Ink on both pieces.
Color the blossoms with Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends. Color the leaves with Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends. Color the stem with the Light Soft Suede Stampin’ Blend. Color the inside of the apple with Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends. I also colored some of them with So Saffron Stampin’ Blends. Color the outside of the apples using the Light Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blend for the base, Dark Stampin’ Blend for the black artist markings and then go over the markings and outer side of the large apple with the Dark Poppy Parade Stampin Blend. Run both pieces through die cutting and embossing machine with the coordinating die from the Apple Blossoms Dies.
Adhere both apple pieces over the gold frame with liquid glue. Adhere frame piece to card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp greeting with Soft Suede ink on a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock. I used a Jewish holiday stamp set from Papertrey Ink Stamps that I’ve had for years. L’Shanah Tovah translates to Happy New Year from the Hebrew. I used the smaller label die from the Sending Dies to cut it out. Adhere in the middle of the apples with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 4″ x 5 1/4″. I stamped the criss-cross image from the Apple Harvest stamp set in the upper right and lower left corner with Soft Suede ink. Stamp greeting. Adhere to inside of card.

This card turned out totally different than the original idea I had and was twice as much work! I made twenty cards and spent every spare hour I had all of last week to get them finished. I’ve already received thank you messages from several recipients telling me how much they loved the card so it was worth the extra effort!

Final reminder that today is the last day the Apple Blossoms Dies will be available to order.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Slice of Happiness Rosh Hashanah Card

September 8, 2021September 8, 2021 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello! I made today’s card to send to my friends and relatives for the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. Stampin’ Up! hasn’t had a Jewish holiday stamp set for many years so every year I take on the challenge of using SU products to create my holiday cards. It is amazing what you can come up with! I can usually adapt one of our packages of Designer Series Papers from the holiday catalog, or sometimes there are stamp sets that contain images that are symbols of the Jewish New Year. When I saw the gorgeous Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog, the rich purples made me think of grapes, which is one of the symbols. I thought immediately of the retired stamp set, Slice of Life from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog, because one of the images is grapes. I used this stamp set to make my holiday card in 2019 and used the pomegranate image on that card. You can see it in this blog post. I used a set of Jewish holiday greetings from a retired Papertrey Ink stamp set. I also used one of my favorite fun-folds, which is a great way to showcase a stamped image.

Here is how I made the card.

Card base – cut a piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 6 1/2″. Score at 2 1/4″. Fold and crease sharply with a bone folder.
Cut two strips of Blackberry Beauty DSP at 2″ x 5 1/4″. I used two different papers, one for the front fold and one for the inside fold. Adhere to both sides of the fold.
Smaller card base – cut a piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock at 6 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ and score at 3 1/4″. Fold and crease sharply with a bone folder. Cut a piece of Very Vanilla cardstsock at 3″ x 4″, stamp greeting with Cinnamon Cider ink and adhere to the inside left side of the card base. Cut a scrap piece of Gold Foil and run it through your die cutting machine with one of the small leaf dies from the Beautiful Leaves Dies. Adhere with small dots of liquid glue to bottom left of the greeting piece.

Cut piece of Very Vanilla cardstock at 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ and run through your die cutting machine with the largest rectangle from the Stitched so Sweetly dies.
Use the direct-to-rubber coloring technique to color the grape image with Stampin’ Write Markers. I used Old Olive for the leaves, Cinnamon Cider for the branches and Rich Razzleberry for the grapes. Stamp onto the Very Vanilla cardstock, leaving room to stamp the greeting at the bottom. Stamp the greeting with Cinnamon Cider ink. Add some sparkle to the grapes with Wink of Stella.

Adhere the piece to the front of the Cinnamon Cider card base. Note that the folded base will open from left to right so make sure the opening is in the right direction before you adhere the stamped image!
Adhere the smaller card to the Rich Razzleberry card base so that the front of the smaller card overlaps the front fold of the larger card.

Forever Blossoms Wedding Card

September 1, 2021September 1, 2021 | Rhonda Kleiman

Hello! My cousin’s daughter was married two weeks ago so I needed to make a wedding card. It’s been a few years since I’ve had to make a wedding card! All of the wedding stamp sets I have are retired so I turned to Pinterest for some inspiration and saw a number of ideas for cards that use the Forever Blossoms stamp set. I own this beautiful stamp set and haven’t used it recently so decided to give it a little love.

Here’s how I made the card.

Card base – Cut a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″, fold and crease with a bone folder.
Cut a piece of Pool Party cardstock at 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ and a piece of coordinating Designer Series Paper at 4″ x 5 1/4″. I used the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper, which is now retired. It was part of the Parisian Blossoms Suite in the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog. Adhere the two pieces together. Cut a 24″ length of Pool Party Sheer Ribbon and tie in a bow around the piece. Adhere piece to card front.
Run a 4″ x 5″ piece of Pool Party cardstock through your die cutting machine with the next-to-largest die in the Ornate Layers die set. Stamp the “Always and Forever” greeting from the Forever Blossoms stamp set with Tuxedo Black Memento ink in bottom right corner.
Stamp the large floral image from the stamp set with Memento ink on piece of Basic White cardstock. Color the flowers with the light and dark Pool Party Stampin’ Blends and color the leaves with the light and dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. Run through your die cutting machine with the coordinating die from the Cherry Blossoms Dies.

Adhere the Pool Party Ornate Layer piece to card front. Adhere the floral piece over the Ornate Layer piece with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Add a bit of bling to accent the floral piece by adhering three Night of Navy Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems.
For the inside of the card I stamped another greeting from the Forever Blossoms stamp set with Memento ink. I also stamped a blossom in the lower left corner and colored it in with the Pool Party Stampin’ Blends.
