Today’s card was made using the Bottled Happiness Bundle which includes the Bottled Happiness stamp set and the Vintage Bottle Punch. I also used my Stamparatus to line up the two images that make up the bouquet of flowers.
For the base of my card I used one of the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes and as the name states, there’s a matching envelope for each card base. I layered a piece of Basic White cardstock and Starry Sky cardstock together and adhered them to the front of the card.
I cut another piece of Basic White cardstock and placed it in the Stamparatus. There are two stamps that make up the bouquet (see the diagram below). I used the stamp with the leaves first and placed it on the cardstock exactly where I wanted and then closed the Stamparatus cover so the stamp would stay in place. I used my Parakeet Party Stampin’ Write Marker to color the leaves on the stamp and the Starry Sky Stampin’ Write Marker to color the small flowers which are actually the centers of the larger flowers. Then I closed the cover to stamp the image onto my Basic White cardstock. I colored the images a second time so they’d be darker.
The beauty of the Stamparatus is that you can remove the plate and turn it around and use the other side (plus it comes with two plates) which I did. I didn’t remove the first stamp so I can make multiples of my card at a later time. When I stamped the other image, I used my Orchid Oasis stamp pad to color the images. It took me several tries (five or six, if I’m being honest) to get my stamps aligned exactly how I wanted them. It was worth it because I love the finished bouquet. Imagine all the possibilities with different colors!! Those two stamps aren’t coming off my plate for a while!
I adhered the bouquet stamped image to the front of the card and then stamped the bottle in Starry Sky ink and cut it out with the Vintage Bottle Punch. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below the bouquet. I used the All That Dies to cut the sentiment banner and then stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis ink using the stamp set, Bottled Happiness.
I used several Mini Glue Dots to adhere the sentiment to the bottle. Then I used three strands of White Baker’s Twine (part of the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack) and made a bow. I added a Mini Glue Dot to the back and adhered it to the bottle.
Bundle Alert: The He’s All That Bundle includes the All That Dies and He’s All That stamp set. You’ll always save 10% when you purchase a bundle.

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes and the Sweet Songbirds Bundle which includes the Sweet Songbirds stamp set and the Songbird Builder Punch.
I cut a piece of Orchid Oasis cardstock and placed it inside the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then I layered it onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I wrapped a piece of Starry Sky Metallic Woven Ribbon around the cardstock layer and tied a bow over on the left-hand side. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it the front of a Tea Boutique Card Base.
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut a circle and the sentiment piece out of Basic White cardstock. Then on another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the bird using Orchid Oasis ink and the stamp set, Sweet Songbirds, and punched it out using the Songbird Builder Punch. I stamped the wing also in Orchid Oasis ink and punched it out. I used Pumpkin Pie cardstock for the bird’s beak and used the punch for that too. I adhered the wing and beak to the bird but before adhering the birdie to the circle, I decided where I wanted to place her and then stamped her feet in Memento Ink. I also used Memento Ink for her eyes.
I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and adhered it on top of the ribbon.
I stamped the sentiment in Orchid Oasis ink using the stamp set, Sweet Songbirds onto the sentiment piece. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it below the bird. To complete the card, I added a Matte Decorative Dot at each end of the sentiment.

The card I have to share with you today features the stamp set, Limited Edition and Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper (I can’t get enough of this paper).
I started with a base of Pool Party cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside one of the Elegant 3D Embossing Folders and ran it through the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered it to a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and placed it on the front of the card.
Next, I layered a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Limited Edition in Fresh Freesia ink and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added adhesive just to the corner of the circle (the part that would be sitting on the Designer Series Paper layer) and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete the card, I added an In Color Opal Round below the sentiment and added a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the card.
