CASE the Catty, FREE Card Templates, & More!

Have you had time to flip through the NEW January-April Stampin’ Up! Mini Catalog? If not, you can click on the image below to view the catalog online.

This catalog is filled with so many ideas to help spark your creativity! If you need a card and you don’t know what to make, it’s easy to just pick something you like and CASE it. CASE simply means to Copy And Share Everything or Copy And Selectively Edit. We CASEd the Catty as a fun team challenge last week. I chose a card design I liked on page 19. Stampin' Up! Reason to Celebrate Congratulations card idea- visit juststampin.com for inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Here’s my CASEd version of this card.
Stampin' Up! Lovely Blossoms Suite Thank you Card idea with All in A Row Embossing Folder-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
See how it looks so different with just a few changes?!
I used the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set and Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper to create a simple thank you card. I embossed the background using the NEW All In A Row Embossing Folder. I love the added texture you get with embossing!

Another way to spark your creativity is with card templates (AKA sketches).
Card templates are simple, easy-to-follow layouts for when you need card design ideas. They’re layout guides—not step-by-step instructions—so there are no measurements or required products. Use the layouts as a starting point, then let your creativity flow and make each design your own.
Click on the link below for some card making templates.

START YOUR NEXT CARD PROJECT WITH THESE CARD TEMPLATES

You can also get your creative juices flowing by playing along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’! Each week I post a supply list and measurements on Sunday. Then on Monday I list the “clues”. When you follow my step by step clues you will end up with a fun fold card layout you can use over and over. The best part is you use what you have and everyone’s card is different. I share my mystery cards on Tuesday. Then on Sunday I showcase the different cards people send me. I love sharing and seeing all the different versions! I’d love for you to play along.

It’s Thursday! That means it’s time for another Tic Tac Toe Challenge!
Here’s this week’s inspiration board.

I love getting inspiration from the Tic Tac Toe Challenge and seeing what I can create! I used 6 elements from the board this week and created Tic Tac Toe going across the middle, across the bottom, and down the middle. Here’s my card:

Mystery Solved! Double Diamond Gate Fold Cards with Free PDF

September 16, 2025September 16, 2025 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 4 Comments

Did you play along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’? If you followed the clues you would have created a Double Diamond Gate Fold card similar to these.
Mystery Solved!
Stampin' Up! Double Diamond Gatefold Card ideas with Floral Impressions, Painterly Pears, and Modern Christmas-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I need to warn you…This fun fold is addicting!!!! I couldn’t stop making them! This card looks like it would be hard but it is actually quick & easy to create! The hardest part was deciding which (of the 7 cards I created) to share with you today! LOL I decided to choose 3 as each of these is a little different. (To be honest, one really can’t be called a “double diamond” as I went totally rogue!) *Remember- there’s no right or wrong way to do mystery stampin’!!!
Here’s a closer look at each of today’s cards.
Stampin' Up! Double Diamond Gatefold Thank you card idea with Impressions Abloom Stamp set & Floral Impressions Designer Series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Let’s start with the Floral Impressions card. I stayed true to the mystery stamping clues for this card and created a special thank you card. I love how this fun fold card showcases both sides of the patterned paper and stands nicely for display!
Stampin' Up! Double Diamond Gatefold Thank you card idea with Impressions Abloom Stamp set & Floral Impressions Designer Series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I have been blessed with great friends and family who have helped me immensely through my latest surgery (and two previous). Your prayers are appreciated that this one does the trick. It’s a long healing process and I am hoping that I get good news when I visit the doctor today!

I like that this card allows you to add several sentiments and still have room for a personal message. You could easily replace one of the “white” diamonds with DSP or a stamped image/die cut if you didn’t want another sentiment. I did lots of fussy cutting on my card. When I was little I loved paper dolls and I find fussy cutting very relaxing. (And I’ve had lots of time laying around lately to fussy cut! LOL) I used leftover pieces of DSP to cut the flowers. I added a few Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots and this card was done!

My second card features the Painterly Pears Suite Collection!
The Painterly Pears Suite is another favorite suite of mine! I plan to use this collection for my Thanksgiving cards this year. I Love the sentiments in the stamp set and especially love how the dies cut out some images from the gorgeous DSP! The only fussy cutting I did on this card was the one pink pear which I adhered on top to bring more color to my focal image.
Stampin' Up! Double Diamond Gatefold card with Perfectly Pears Bundle & Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the DSP in a diamond shape for my layers. I didn’t even need to add the white layer on the inside of my card. The DSP did all the work for me for this card!

My third card today is a classic example of how most cards evolve as I create. More often than not I don’t end up with what I first envisioned. Does that happen to you too?
Stampin' Up! Peace on Earth & Modern Christmas Gate Fold card-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Instead of diamond layers I ending up punching circles. I tried the diamonds but it hid the trees in the middle section which I wanted to see. Also, the 3 trees I cut from the DSP just looked lost. I added some gold trim between the circles for a bit more glam! I used the Peace on Earth Stamp Set for my sentiments. I heat embossed one in gold and stamped the other in black.

I like how it turned out with the circles and plan to experiment with some shaped dies as well. This really is a FUN fun fold card!
