by Tracy | Mar 4, 2022 | Bundle, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features the Sweet as Peach Bundle (on sale the month of March) and the Scalloped Contours Dies. The Sweet as a Peach Bundle (compatible with the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine and on sale this month) includes the Sweet as a Peach stamp set and the Peach Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White Cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders. These embossing folders are smaller (compatible with the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine) and the entire piece of paper will not be completely embossed but I covered the part that wasn’t embossed with a piece of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper.
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of a piece of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
Using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set, I stamped the leaves in Pear Pizzazz ink and the flowers in Balmy Blue and Night of Navy ink onto Basic White cardstock and then cut them out using the Peach Dies. I glued the leaves down and then added Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to three flowers and placed them on the leaves. I added glue to the top flower and tucked it underneath (when I make this card again, I’m going to try adding Dimensionals to the leaves and then glue the flowers). To complete the card, I added three Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels.

March 1st has arrived and five new Stampin’ Up products from the Waves of the Ocean collection are now available plus the Savings Are In Bloom sale has begun! This blog post is jammed packed with information but first, I’d like to share my card for today.
My card features two new products from the Waves of the Ocean Collection: Waves of the Ocean 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels.
I started with a piece of Pacific Point cardstock for the base of my card and then added a layer of Waves of the Ocean Designer Series Paper (this paper is only available while supplies last). Then I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.
I stamped the sentiment using the stamp set, Happy & Heartfelt, in Pacific Point ink onto the stitched rectangle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the Designer Series Paper.Then I used the same design of paper to die-cut a butterfly using the Brilliant Wings Dies. I placed two Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals down the center of the butterfly and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and then added three Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels to the front of the card. When these rhinestones arrived in my preorder, the first words out of my mouth were, “WOW, these are beautiful!!!!” I’m definitely buying more of them! These rhinestones are only available while supplies last!

by Tracy | Feb 21, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
Today’s card is a quick and easy one that was made using Stampin’ Up! Ornate Frames Dies, Ornate Layers Dies and Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that was embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. Usually I add a layer that’s a little bit smaller than the card base but this piece is the same size as the base. Next, I used the Ornate Layers Dies to cut a piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper and then adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Rich Razzleberry ink and the stamp set, Eclectic Garden. I cut it out using the Ornate Frames Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added three Opal Rounds to the front of the card. See? Easy!!

by Tracy | Feb 11, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle which includes the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set and the Rain Boots Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies. We sure could use some rain here in California. I had hoped that by simply making a card with this set, that the skies would open up, but they didn’t. Maybe I need to actually use the rain boots? Rain aside, it’s a really cute bundle!
I started with a piece of Night of Navy cardstock for the base. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut the large scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I also used these dies to cut a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper (free with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration). I used the dies again to cut another rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink on the smallest scalloped rectangle and then adhered all three pieces together and placed them on the front of the card.
I stamped the pot in Cinnamon Cider ink, the leaves in Garden Green ink and the tulips in Highland Heather ink. I then cut out all three pieces using the Rain Boots Dies. I cut a slit in the pot so I could slide my leaves inside (I learned this from another demo – genius!). I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere the pot and leaves to the front of card and then added the tulips. I originally used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the tulips but they had too much height so I took them off and just used glue.
I added three Polished Dots below the sentiment and then adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. I think the Polished Dots are my new favorite embellishment. I keep reaching for them and they are perfect for coloring using your Stampin’ Blends.

by Tracy | Feb 2, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting
Today’s card was made using Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the stamp set, Happy & Heartfelt.
I started with a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock and scored it on the 8-1/2″ side at 2-1/8 and 6-3/8″ (or you can score it at 2-1/8″ on both ends). Then I adhered two pieces of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper to both of the front panels (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies to cut a rectangle out of a Gold Foil Sheet (there are little flecks of gold in the Designer Series Paper) and cut a smaller rectangle out of Basic White cardstock.
I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the stamp set Happy & Heartfelt and then adhered the sentiment piece to the gold foil. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the gold foil rectangle, two rows VERY close together, and adhered it to the top flap.
To complete my card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added a Bumblebee Trinket next to the sentiment.

by Tracy | Feb 1, 2022 | Brilliant Wings Dies, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting
Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (it’s so pretty with lots of gold accents) and the Brilliant Wings Dies.
I started with a piece of Blushing Bride cardstock for the card base. Then I layered two pieces of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper onto pieces of Just Jade cardstock and adhered them to the card base (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Just Jade ink and the stamp set, Biggest Wish. I layered it onto another piece of Just Jade cardstock and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the Brilliant Wings Dies to cut a butterfly out of a piece of Blushing Bride cardstock. In the picture above of the dies, the darker image is one die. The rest of the dies are individual dies. I added a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to the center of the butterfly and placed it on the card.
I added three Metallic Pearls (gold and silver pearls are included in each package) down the center of the butterfly and then added two Brushed Brass Butterflies to the sentiment piece. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
