by Tracy | Mar 2, 2021 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Stitched So Sweetly Dies
If you love butterflies, you’re going to love all the new products debuting today! The card I’m sharing was created using two of these new products: Butterfly Bijou 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the Brilliant Wings Dies.
Here are the new products available today:
Today’s card is quick and easy to make! I started by adhering a layer of Butterfly Bijou 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to my Mint Macaron card base. Then I used that same Designer Series Paper to cut a butterfly using the Brilliant Wings Dies. If you’d like to see a good representation of the dies you’ll receive in the Brilliant Wings Dies, take a look HERE at the image for the Butterfly Brilliance Collection where you can see the actual dies.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Then I stamped the sentiment in the corner with Mint Macaron ink using the stamp set, Butterfly Gala. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the scalloped rectangle and adhered it to the front of the card. I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the butterfly (in some places I had to cut them in half) and adhered it to the Stitched So Sweetly rectangle. To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones to the front.
If you’d like to make today’s card, you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

- $150 or more, do NOT use the Host Code
- All orders over $150 automatically receive an extra card kit from me.

Today I’m sharing four cards I created using the Gorgeous Posies Project Kit from the Annual Catalog. Many months ago I shared a card I made from this kit but over the weekend I completed all the cards. The kit makes 16 cards and a beautiful, fully assembled box is included (you’ll need to supply a stamp set, ink and adhesive).
You can purchase the coordinating Gorgeous Posies stamp set but I used several other stamp sets to complete my cards. The nice thing about these kits is that directions are included that show how to finish the cards but you can assemble them however you want. I chose not to use the the purple twine and ribbon (with gold accents) and will save these for a future project.
I used the stamp set Butterfly Gala for the sentiment on these first two cards. I used Blackberry Bliss ink on the first one and Gorgeous Grape on the second one.
The sentiment on this next card was stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink using the stamp set Welcoming Window.
The sentiment on this card was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink using the stamp set, Love of Leaves.
This last card is one I shared many months ago. I used the coordinating Gorgeous Posies stamp set for the sentiment and stamped it in Blackberry Bliss ink.
The colors on all the cards are vivid and stunning with lots of gold accents. I didn’t carefully read the catalog description and was very surprised when it arrived and there’s was a box included. I think this kit shows beautifully in the catalog but it’s even prettier in person.
Supply List
If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store. If you have questions about products you’re considering purchasing or ones you’ve already purchased, I’m just an email away (click the Email Me button on the sidebar of my blog).
Host Code
I have a new host code! Anyone who places an order at my Stampin’ Up! online store, receives a card kit and each kit includes all the paper and embellishments needed to create a beautiful card. The paper will be cut, scored and embossed for you. You’ll just need to supply your own ink, stamp and adhesive. Use my host code below when placing your online order of $150 or less and I’ll send you an extra card kit! Orders over $150 will automatically receive an extra card kit. The reason you don’t want to use the host code when placing a $150 or more order is that when you reach $150, you hit the sweet spot and begin earning Stampin’ Rewards directly from Stampin’ Up!. When your order is over $150 AND you use a host code, you forfeit your rewards and I don’t want that to happen. So, under $150, use the host code. Over $150, do not use the host code and start earning free product! If you have any questions, please let me know.

In just four days, Sale-a-Bration will be over! It’s that time of year when you can earn free product with every $50 or $100 order!
One of the first stamp sets I earned free when Sale-a-Bration first started was A Touch of Ink but I didn’t play with until yesterday! Why the heck did I wait so long? It has a butterfly, flowers, a hummingbird and great sentiments. This is a Level 2 Sale-a-Bration gift and it’s only available for four more days with a $100 order.
I don’t remember if I’ve shared this before, but my husband retired at the end of August. He was a pilot for Delta Airlines for 33 years. He had planned to retire in a few years but Delta offered him a chance to retire early and he took them up on it (you’re probably wondering what in the world this has to do with Sale-a-Bration and the stamp set, Touch of Ink, but I’m getting there). Since Mark has been retired we now have two bird feeders and three, yes three, hummingbird feeders in our backyard. We have the cutest birds, hummingbirds and butterflies visiting our yard daily and we have so much fun watching them zoom all over our backyard. Believe me, it’s a full time job refilling the bird and hummingbird feeders! So, when I saw this stamp set, I knew I had to have it!
To create my card, I started with a base of Highland Heather cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. I then cut a square out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Squares Dies and stamped the sentiment in Highland Heather ink. I used Memento Ink to stamp the flowers and then colored them in with my Highland Heather and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. I layered this piece onto a larger square cut out of Highland Heather cardstock. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back and it was adhered to the front of the card. I love dimension on my cards and use Stampin’ Dimensional on almost every single card I make.
I stamped the hummingbird onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink and colored it using the Highland Heather and Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blends. I cut it out using our Paper Snips, which are very sharp scissors (these are currently on backorder but a large shipment is due in next week). Usually I’m not overly fond of fussy cutting but it really didn’t take much time at all. I added several Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it near the flowers. I added some Wink of Stella to the hummingbird’s head for some extra sparkle!
This really is a fun set to play with and if you place a $100 order, you can choose it as your free gift, but only until this Sunday, February 28, 2021!
Here’s one of the cute hummingbirds in our backyard. Not exactly the Highland Heather – Bermuda Bay combination of my hummingbird but isn’t he cute?
