Be sure to look farther down in the post for two sales that begin on Tuesday, August 5th!
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the same layout as Friday’s card. You can see Friday’s card here. But I did make one tweak to the embossed Basic White squares (I made them a bit larger). I used the Sunshine Vibes stamp set, Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive), Stylish Shapes Dies and the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.
If the links don’t work, please try again!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock (an Online Exclusive) for the base of my card.
I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and set it aside. I cut two pieces of Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper and two pieces of Basic White cardstock (if you didn’t notice at the top of the post, I changed the measurements for the Basic White cardstock from Friday’s card). I embossed the Basic White cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered the four pieces to the front of the Fresh Freesia cardstock.
Next, I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Sunshine Vibes stamp set in Fresh Freesia ink. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies using the third largest circle die. Then, I cut a Fresh Freesia circle using the second largest circle die. I adhered the sentiment to the front of the Fresh Freesia circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

Now on to my card! I used the Pattern of Friendship Stamp Set (an Online Exclusive), Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder to create my card today.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic cardstock for the base of my card (this cardstock can be found in the Online Exclusives part of the Stampin’ Up! store). I cut a piece of Peach Pie cardstock and set it aside.
I cut two pieces of Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper (DSP) and two pieces of Basic White cardstock (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). I embossed the two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I arranged the DSP and Basic White cardstock on the Peach Pie cardstock. After I finished that, I adhered the Peach Pie cardstock to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Pattern of Friendship stamp set in Summer Splash ink. I cut it out using the third largest circle in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut a bigger circle out of Summer Splash cardstock using the second largest circle in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the front of the Summer Splash circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
