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.

by Tracy | Jan 26, 2022 | Card Sampler, Designer Series Paper, Embossing Folders, Quick & Easy Card
Today I have a very quick and easy card using New Horizons Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, On the Horizon.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Macrame 3D Embossing Folder. Then I cut a piece of New Horizons Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements I used below). I stamped the sentiment and the birds in Memento Ink using the stamp set, On the Horizon, directly onto the Designer Series Paper.
I adhered the Designer Series Paper to a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to the front of the card! Quick and easy, right?!!

by Tracy | Jan 24, 2022 | Card Sampler, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Sale-a-Bration
Today I have three fun fold cards to share with you. They were all made using the same design and they feature two Sale-a-Bration gifts you can choose from with a $50 or $100 order. There’s no limit to how many free items you can earn during Sale-a-Bration!
I started out with a piece of Pool Party cardstock for the base of the card. I folded it in half on the score line and then folded on the other score line towards the middle fold to create the fun fold (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
I embossed a piece of Pool Party cardstock using the Gingham Embossing Folder and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I layered it with a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock. I added adhesive to one side only and adhered it to the front flap. I cut a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper and adhered it to a another piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock and then placed it on the front of the card. Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper is FREE with a $50 order (before tax/shipping) during Sale-a-Bration!
I stamped the sentiment using the stamp set, Special Moments in Misty Moonlight ink. Special Moments is also a Sale-a-Bration gift and you can earn it with a $100 order (l love when a stamp set is filled with sentiments!).
I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut out the sentiment and then cut a larger rectangle out of Misty Moonlight cardstock. I layered the two pieces together and then added Stampin’ Dimensional to the back (only the part that would be touching the Designer Series Paper) and then added it to the front of the card. I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside to finish the card.
This second card was made with Flirty Flamingo and Pool Party cardstock. I used Flirty Flamingo ink for the sentiment.
This next card was made with Misty Moonlight and Magenta Madness cardstock. I used Misty Moonlight ink for the sentiment. If you wanted a little bit of a softer look, Melon Mambo would also work in place of the Magenta Madness cardstock.
I hope you’ll give this fun fold a try!
