The card I’m sharing today was made using the Apple Harvest Bundle which will be available beginning September 1st during the Perfect Partners Promotion! Six new dies will be introduced on September 1st that coordinate with sets in our Annual and Mini Catalogs. The dies can be purchased separately or in a bundle with the coordinating stamp set. BUT, these dies are only available during the month of September and while supplies last!
Click the image below for the Perfect Partners Promotion flyer or HERE (there are two pages).

My card was created using the Apple Harvest stamp set (you can find it in the Mini Catalog) and the Apple Blossoms Dies which will be available on September 1st. The Apple Blossoms Bundle (162526) includes both of these products and you’ll save 10% when you purchase any Stampin’ Up! bundle.


I started with a piece of Granny Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then I adhered two squares of In Color 2022-2024 Designer Series Paper (in Parakeet Party) to a piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the card front.


I stamped the apples and leaves in Memento Ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Apple Harvest. The apples were colored using Real Red Stampin’ Blends (Light & Dark) and the leaves were colored with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (Light & Dark). The stems were colored with Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends (Light). I cut them out with the Apple Blossoms Dies #160255 (available on September 1st) and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink (using the Apple Harvest stamp set) towards the bottom of the rectangle. I adhered the apples to the rectangle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside to complete the card.

To create today’s card, I used Stampin’ Up! Kraft Note Cards & Envelopes, Fancy Frames Dies, Framed Occasions stamp set and 2022-2024 In Color 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper.


For the base of my card, I used one of our Kraft Note Cards. When folded, these cards are 5″ x 3-1/2″. Twenty card bases and twenty envelopes are included and a coordinating box (you’ll need to assemble the box).
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock a little bit bigger than the leafy frame from the Fancy Frames Dies and adhered one of our adhesive sheets to the back of the cardstock so it would be sticky and I wouldn’t have to add adhesive after I cut it out. Then I ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.



Next, I cut a piece of Glimmer Paper the same size as the frame (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List) and then, very carefully, adhered the frame to it. Then I adhered the glimmery frame to the front of the Kraft Note Card.


I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Tahitian Tide ink and the stamp set, Framed Occasions and cut it out using the Stitched Rectangles Dies. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the center of the card. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside (optional) and placed an Iridescent Rhinestone at each end of the sentiment.

Today’s card features the Blessings of Home Bundle which includes the Blessings of Home stamp set and the Flowers of Home Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies and the Fern 3D Embossing Folder.
Edited to Add: When you spend $100 during Sale-a-Bration, you can earn the Flower of Home Dies absolutely FREE. You must use this item number when choosing these dies as your free gift: #163095. If you use the item number in the catalog, it won’t come up FREE. This offer is good until August 31, 2022 or while supplies last. You can see this Sale-a-Bration product HERE.

I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I ran a piece of Basic White cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the card base.


Next, I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a rectangle out of a piece of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Old Olive ink at the bottom of the rectangle. This sentiment had more words on it than I wanted so I covered the part I didn’t want with Post It Tape, inked up the stamp, removed the tape and stamped it onto my rectangle. I did this for another card recently and you can see that post here.


On another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the flowers using Memento Ink (this is the ink to use when using Stampin’ Blends). I colored the flowers using these Stampin’ Blends: Melon Mambo (light & dark), Old Olive (light and dark) and Daffodil Delight (light). After coloring it, I cut it out using the Flowers of Home Dies. I thought about popping the flowers up with Dimensionals but decided against it and just used regular adhesive but I did add Dimensionals to the back of the rectangle before adhering it to the front of the card.

To complete my card, I added three Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels around the flowers.

A few months later, a friend suggested I get a small group of teachers together (I was an elementary teacher for 22 years) and make the cards I had created and the rest is history. You can just get the discount or get the discount and share your love of cardmaking. It’s totally up to you.

Today’s card features the Wonderful World Bundle (a FREE Sale-a-Bration gift with a $100 purchase) which includes the Wonderful World stamp set and Wonderful World 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper.
I used this design on a previous card but changed up the sentiment. You can see it here.


I started with a piece of Starry Sky cardstock for the base of my card. Then I ran a piece of Basic White cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder and then adhered it to my card front.


I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut two squares of Wonderful World Designer Series Paper. Then I layered each to a piece of Starry Sky cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) and adhered them to the front of the card. For the sentiment, I used the Stitched Rectangles to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment in Starry Sky ink using the stamp set, Season of Chic. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the top square. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
Unfortunately the Stylish Shapes Dies are currently unavailable. Stampin’ Up! has estimated they will be back in stock the week of September 19th.


I placed the sentiment on the bottom square on the card below.
