There so many design options with the Light & Wonder bundle and Lights of Aurora 6×6 paper stack (part of the Lights of Aurora Suite from Stampin’ UP!). You’ll notice that the cards on my blog post today show how you can create a portrait or landscape orientation for these cards.

My apologies… I did not realize that I used some of the paper upsidedown… I explained that in my video!! So sorry!!

You may have noticed that I also used a lot of glimmer paper and Wink of Stella “splatter” for lots of pretty sparkle!! You can make them without if you prefer.

In case you missed it… the glimmer paper is from the Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper pack.

Die-cut paper shapes are arranged on a table, labeled as large & small trees, snowy mountain, lake, snowy hill, and mountains. The trees are blue, purple, and white while other shapes are cut from white, blue, and printed scenic paper. Text is overlaid at the top. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

As shown in the video… I used 5-1/2″ to 6″ wide cardstock and glimmer paper to die cut all the layers, overlapped them over the sides of the card back panel (use your Silicone sheet), then trimmed to card front size later.

How I organized my die cut pieces:

A clear plastic divided container holds organized paper pieces in various colors and designs. Labels read “DIVIDED CONTAINER” and “Patty’s Craft Room Essentials on Amazon.” The background shows a colorful, blurred craft room workspace. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

I love to pass along great finds for craft room organization, storage and crafting systems, so I thought you’d appreciate the link to this fabulous divided organizer in my Amazon Craft Room Essentials favorites store.

I used it to organize and store the Light & Wonder bundle pieces as I die cut them.

I also use this type of organizer to store my embellishments in the Avery envelopes, and also to organize card stock and die cut pieces when I am creating in bulk.
