by Tracy | Feb 3, 2020 | Birthday Card, Designer Series Paper, Embossing Folders
Today’s card was created using Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper combined with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the Layered Leaves embossing folder. Several days ago I made quite a few cards using this Designer Series Paper and had a pile of strips leftover. I knew I couldn’t throw them away and my card today uses one of those scraps. I love when I can use all my leftover pieces!
I embossed the Petal Pink cardstock using my die-cutting machine and the Layered Leaves embossing folder. On the bottom half, I adhered the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper. Before attaching it to the Petal Pink card base, I wrapped Petal Pink 1/4″ Metallic Edge Ribbon around the cardstock and made a bow. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I used the Peaceful Moments stamp set for the sentiment and stamped it in Mossy Meadow ink. It was cut out with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and mounted onto a large rectangle in Petal Pink. Both pieces have Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back. I added three of our Champagne Rhinestones to complete the card. You can find all the measurements I used below the supply list!

My card today features the stamp set Positive Thoughts and next week, on February 4th, you’ll be able to purchase the coordinating dies (while supplies last). Check back on Tuesday for all the details!
To create my card, I started with a base of Thick Whisper White cardstock. Granny Apple Green cardstock was used for the next layer but before adhering it to the card base, I ran it through my die-cutting machine using the Scripty 3D embossing folder. The Whisper White rectangle was cut using the Nature’s Thoughts Dies (will be released on February 4th). Before adhering the rectangle to the embossed Granny Apple Green layer, I stamped the leaf using Granny Apple Green ink and the stamp set, Positive Thoughts. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and attached it to the front of the card.
On a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock, I stamped another leaf, also using Granny Apple Green ink but this time I did a technique called stamping off. After inking up the stamp, I stamped onto my grid paper and then stamped onto the Whisper White. This gives the illusion that two different colors of ink were used!
I also stamped a flower in Highland Heather ink and then cut both the flower and leaf out using the Nature’s Thoughts Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of both pieces and adhered them to the card.
The sentiment, also from the stamp set Positive Thoughts, was stamped in Memento Ink onto Whisper White cardstock. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back before attaching it to the card front. To complete the card, I added three rhinestones below the sentiment.
If you’d like to make today’s card, you’ll find the measurements below the Supply List.

by Tracy | Jan 30, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting
I used Stampin’ Up! Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper to create today’s card. This paper is one of the FREE gifts you can choose during Sale-a-Bration when you place a $50 order (before tax and shipping). If you’d like to see all the gifts you can earn, this link will take you to the Sale-a-Bration PDF brochure.
I started with a base of Thick Whisper White cardstock and added a layer of Basic Black. I then added another layer using Golden Honey Designer Series Paper. My sentiment was inked up with Memento Ink using the stamp set, Seriously the Best, which is a new stamp set in the Mini Catalog. It was cut out with the Stitched Shapes Dies using a die-cutting machine. I also cut out a Basic Black scalloped oval using the Layering Ovals Dies. It’s hard to see in my photo but to complete my card I added a rhinestone in the middle of five flowers.
If you’d like to create today’s quick and easy card, you’ll find the measurements below the supply list.

by Tracy | Jan 29, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Get Well Card
A great place to get inspiration is right from the pages of a Stampin’ Up! catalog! As I was looking through the new Mini Catalog, I saw a card (page 21) that started some ideas flowing and this is the card I created!
I used the stamp set, So Sentimental, along with the coordinating Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Purchase these two items using the special bundle item number (153828) and you’ll save 10%!
The base of the card is Petal Pink cardstock with a layer of Whisper White cardstock. The Designer Series Paper is Best Dressed which is 6″ x 6″ paper. Our Stitched So Sweetly Dies were used to cut out the sentiment as well as the stitched rectangle under it. Lovely Lipstick ink was used with the So Sentimental stamp set for the sentiment. I popped both the sentiment and the scalloped rectangle up with Stampin’ Dimensionals. If you’d like to make today’s card, you can find the measurements below.
Measurements
- Petal Pink cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″
- Whisper White cardstock: 5-1/4″ x 4″
- Best Dressed 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper: 5″ x 3-3/4″
- Best Dressed 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper: scrap for rectangle (approx. 3-3/4″ x 2-3/4″)
- Whisper White cardstock: scrap for sentiment
