I have a lot of scraps of Designer Seres Paper (it’s hard to throw any of it away) so I decided to make several cards using leftover squares of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper.

For this first card, I started with a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder. I then embossed another piece of Basic White that I adhered to a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock.


I cut the square of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper using the Stylish Shapes Dies and layered it with a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink using the stamp set, Soft Seedlings and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut a larger circle out of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together and then added Tear & Tape (because it’s really strong) to the upper part of the sentiment and placed it at the bottom of the square. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

This other version was made using Pool Party cardstock.

Today I’m sharing a card I made using Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Soft Seedlings. I was on a roll making these cards so below you’ll see some other variations.


I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock. Then I cut two strips of Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper and one strip of Fresh Freesia cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I placed the Fresh Freesia cardstock in one of the Elegant Eucalyptus Embossing Folders and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then I adhered all three pieces to a piece of Basic White cardstock which I then added to a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock.


I then wrapped our Open Weave Ribbon in Fresh Freesia around the layers and tied a knot. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut a larger circle out of Fresh Freesia and adhered the sentiment to it. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

For these next two versions, I used Night of Navy cardstock


For these last two cards, I used Parakeet Party cardstock.


I have to give credit to Sue Campfield for this great layout! I saw several cards she made and wanted to give it a try with Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper.

Today’s card features the Nature’s Prints Bundle which includes the Nature’s Prints stamp set and the Natural Prints Dies. I also used our new Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper.


I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut three pieces of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). To make it easier to add the wreath to the card, I added a piece of an adhesive sheet to the back of my Basic White cardstock, placed the wreath die on top of the cardstock (not the adhesive side) and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I peeled the adhesive sheet away from the wreath and adhered it to the front of the card.

I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Mint Macaron ink and the stamp set, Nature’s Prints. I cut it out using the Natural Prints Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card. To complete the card, I added two Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels on each side of the sentiment.

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Soft Seedlings. It may look as though the card is difficult to create but it really isn’t!


I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). After the paper is cut and scored, there are two side panels that open like a gate. I cut two pieces of Pool Party cardstock for each of the panels and ran them through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Then I adhered them to each side.


I cut two “flaps” out of Basic White cardstock and then added Texture Chic Designer Series Paper to each one. I adhered one flap to the right side (only adding adhesive to the part that would be touching that panel) and then added the other flap to the other side. I hope that makes sense! It really is an easy card to make!
I stamped the sentiment in Pool Party ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Soft Seedlings. I then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the top flap.


I have to give credit to Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Sue Campfield for the idea of this fun fold! I saw some cute cards she made with this fold and I had to give it a try with my own take on it.
Here was my first try at making this card. I decided it needed something and that’s when I added the Pool Party panels. I used the Season of Chic stamp set and the Natural Prints Dies.
