I have another card to share with you today using the Hearts of Elegance Bundle. I also used Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper, Countryside Corners Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Gold Foil Sheets and the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins. I also added gold embossing to the sentiment.
I started with Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed Basic White to the front of the card.
I cut two pieces of Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card. Next, I cut a piece of Gold Foil and embossed a smaller piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. I glued the embossed Basic White cardstock to the gold foil and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the Hearts of Elegance Dies to cut a piece of Real Red cardstock to make my heart. I love the details on the heart! Then I adhered the heart to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink using the Hearts of Elegance stamp set. I sprinkled gold embossing powder to the sentiment, shook the excess off and then applied my heat tool to the sentiment. I cut it out using the Countryside Corners Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (but only in the middle) and adhered it to the front of the card. I added two small hearts at each end of the sentiment.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Happy New Year’s Eve!
The card I’m sharing with you today is a sneak peek of the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle #164615, which will be available on January 7, 2025! This bundle includes the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder which also includes twelve dies. I also used the Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper #164607 plus I used our Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins #164970, which are a freebie during Sale-a-Bration when your order reaches $60 (before shipping/tax). Sale-a-Bration also begins on January 7th.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered it to the front of the card base. You can see below how I embossed the Basic White cardstock so that I could place the cut out butterfly to fit directly on my embossed cardstock.
I then used the Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to cut the butterfly out using the dies that come with the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder. I used Basic Black cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies dies to cut the part that goes in the middle of the butterfly, then I adhered it to the butterfly.
I adhered the butterfly to the exact spot on the embossed Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Beautiful Butterflies, in Memento Ink. I added two Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back where they would be on the butterfly and just let it hang off on the other end. I added two, small Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (free during Sale-a-Bration with a $60 order) on both ends of the sentiment and three larger ones around the butterfly. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

by Tracy | Dec 21, 2024 | Happy Birthday Card
Today I’m sharing a card I made using Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (DSP) #164944. This DSP is a Sale-a-Bration product and when your order is $60 you can choose this paper and it will be FREE. Sale-a-Bration starts on January 7th and runs through February 28th. I made another card using Bloom Impressions DSP and you can see it here. To create my card I also used the Unbounded Love stamp set and Stylish Shapes Dies.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a layer of Basic White to the front of the card. I cut another piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock and set it aside (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I cut Bloom Impressions DSP and then cut it into strips 3/4″ wide. I then glued the pieces to the Blackberry Bliss cardstock that I set aside and adhered it to the Basic White cardstock.
Then, I stamped my sentiment on Basic White cardstock in Blackberry Bliss ink using the stamp set, Unbounded Love. I cut it out with the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut a larger circle out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the same dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
