Today’s card features the Sweet Ice Cream Bundle which includes the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. These two products are in the new Annual Catalog but the bundle will only be available until June 30th (bundles always save you 10%).
The inspiration for my card came right from the Annual Catalog on page 33. I made a few changes but if you’re ever stuck for an idea, browse through the catalog! It’s a great resource!
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Next, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock that I partially embossed using one of the Checks & Dots Embossing Folders. In the Supply List, I listed the big Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine but these smaller embossing folders WILL fit in the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
After embossing, I stamped the sentiment in Polished Pink ink using the stamp set, In Bloom and then adhered this piece to the Designer Series Paper. On Basic White cardstock, I stamped the cones in Crumb Cake and Early Espresso ink. The scoops were stamped in Pale Papaya and Polished Pink ink. Both the cones and scoops were cut out using the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. I glued the cones down onto the embossing paper but added Stampin’ Dimensionals to each scoop of ice cream.
To complete the card, I added five Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins.

by Tracy | Feb 6, 2020 | Birthday Card, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
I used the stamp set, Happy Birthday to You, a FREE Sale-a-Bration gift with a $50 order, to create today’s card. The coordinating Birthday Dies, just released on Tuesday, were used to cut the cake and stand. These dies, along with four others, are only available while supplies last so grab them while you can!
The cake image was stamped using a Basic Gray Stampin’ Pad onto Whisper White cardstock. Usually when I’m going to use my Stampin’ Blends, I use Memento ink but I went with gray for a softer look. The blends I used to color the image were: Flirty Flamingo (light and dark), Granny Apple Green (light and dark) and Smoky Slate (light). After cutting the cake with the Birthday Dies, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back.
The base of the card is Flirty Flamingo with a layer of Whisper White that was embossed using the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder. Before adhering this layer to the Flirty Flamingo, I wrapped our Metallic-Edged Ribbon around the cardstock and used Multipurpose Glue to attach it to the card base.
The sentiment was stamped in Smoky Slate onto Whisper White cardstock. I adhered it to a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and attached it below the ribbon. Using my Dark Flirty Flamingo Blend, I colored my rhinestones and then placed one in the middle of the three large flowers.
If you’d like to create today’s card, you’ll find the measurements below the supply list.

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!
