I have a card to share with you today but first . . . . .
A New Promotion Begins Today!!!
Stampin’ Up! is offering an additional 10% off all stamp and die bundles (that’s a total of 20% off)! PLUS, save 10% off the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. It’s very rare that I don’t emboss or die cut when making a card. I love my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine!
- This promotion does not include stamp & punch bundles.
- The Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine comes in white and Boho Blue. Boho Blue is available while supplies last.
- I’m anticipating that some of the bundles could go out of stock and I don’t how long it will take to get back in stock, so shop EARLY!
- The 10% discount will be applied automatically to stamp and die bundles.
- This promotion ends on June 30th.
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Friends for Life Bundle which includes the Friends for Life stamp set and the Friends for Life Dies (and this is one of the bundles on sale for the rest of the month!). For this first card, I used Full of Life 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder and Tinsel Gems Four Pack.
I started with a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I put Basic White cardstock into the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
I layered a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock with Full of Life Designer Series Paper, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the embossed Basic White cardstock.
I used the Friends for Life Dies to cut the background for “friend” out of Basic White cardstock and the word friend out of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I used an adhesive sheet on the back of the Pretty Peacock cardstock to make gluing this so much easier. I added the word friend to the Basic White background and then added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and then, adhered it to the Designer Series Paper.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Friends for Life stamp set and Melon Mambo ink. Then, I used my Paper Snips to cut the sentiment to the size I wanted. You could also use our Paper Trimmer. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below “friend”.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of my card and added three gems to the front of the card. I’ve added the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Mystery Boxes
What’s a Mystery Box?
A Mystery Box is filled with retired products that I’d like to give to a new home. I’ve been a demonstrator for almost 15 years so you can just imagine how much I have! I have Medium Rate Flat Rate USPS shipping boxes stuffed with retired Stampin’ Up! product.The boxes contain stamps, dies, ribbon, embellishments and more! The boxes are already sealed and every box will be different and a mystery as to what’s inside! The value of each box is well over $200.
All of the products in the Mystery Boxes have retired but some have never been used, some are used and all are “as is”. Some of the stamp sets are wood mount.
You can place an order HERE.
