Today’s card features a birthday card using the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. The Designer Series Paper I used is called Pattern Party and it’s a host only item. You can earn it with a personal order or by hosting a party. It’s a huge pack of paper and includes 48 pieces of beautiful paper. You can see more information about it in the Annual Catalog on page 171 or here.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a piece of Pattern Party Designer Series Paper. Next, using Basic White cardstock, I cut a stitched rectangle using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I stamped the sentiment towards the bottom of the rectangle using Memento ink and the stamp set Sweet as a Peach.
Using a scrap of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the cone in Cinnamon Cider ink. I also used Cinnamon Cider ink to stamp the marks on the cone and cut it out using the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. I stamped the ice cream scoop onto Basic White cardstock using Coastal Cabana ink and used Early Espresso ink to stamp the sprinkles. I love Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream so to me, they look like little chocolate chips. I cut the scoop out using the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. I adhered the cone to the stitched rectangle using Multipurpose Glue but added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the scoop before placing it on the cone. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the rectangle and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones to the front of the card. Another option would be to use our Artistry Blooms Adhesive Backed Sequins. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Stampin’ Up! has a new Mini Catalog debuting on January 4, 2022. If you’ve ordered from me in the last six months, I ordered a catalog for you in late November and you’ll be receiving it directly from Stampin’ Up!. As I understand, they were mailed in early December so be on the lookout for it soon (it will also include the Sale-a-Bration brochure). If you placed an order from me for the first time in the month of December, I will be directly mailing yours to you.
Last Friday I shared two cards with you (and a free tutorial) and unfortunately the Designer Series Paper I used on both cards is no longer available. So I made another version of the card using Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalog.
I also used the stamp set In Symmetry along with the Layering Circles Dies.
You can find the measurements I used in last week’s free tutorial along with the directions on how to create this fun fold card. The Supply List for today’s card can be found below.

Update: Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper has just sold out.
Today’s card features Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Heartfelt Wishes. Both of these products are retiring and available while supplies last or January 3, 2022.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card and added a layer of Read Red cardstock. Then I adhered a piece of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper to the bottom of a piece of Basic White cardstock.
Below are the coordinating colors for Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper
I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink (Pear Pizzazz ink will also work and will be a little lighter) using the stamp set Heartfelt Wishes. Then I wrapped a piece of Real Red 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon around the middle and tied a knot. This ribbon is retiring and it’s on sale! I adhered this piece to the Real Red cardstock.
To add some sparkle, I added three rhinestones around the sentiment. You can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Today’s card, just like yesterday’s, features Sweet Stockings 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (retiring and available while supplies last). I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies. These dies are so cute with stitching and scallops!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock. Then I used a piece of Sweet Stockings Designer Series Paper and the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut the large scalloped shape. I used these dies again to cut the smaller scalloped shaped with the dog, mouse and kitty. I adhered the smaller scalloped piece to the larger one and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Cherry Cobbler ink and the stamp set, Words of Cheer (retiring and available while supplies last). I cut it out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and tried to place it on the card where it wasn’t blocking any of the animals.
To complete the card, I added three rhinestones. This is a quick and easy card to make!

Today’s card features Sweet Stockings 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, the Stockings Dies (retiring and 50% off), and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. All retiring products are available while supplies last!
I started with a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock. Next, I ran a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the card front. I love this embossing folder and I know I use it a lot but it’s great when you want the embossing to be very subtle.
I used the Stockings Dies to cut a piece of Sweet Stockings 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and then adhered it to the card front. The Stockings Dies coordinate with the Sweet Little Stockings stamp set (I didn’t use it for today’s card) and they are both included in the Sweet Little Stockings Bundle but you’ll save $10.00 buying these two products separately since the dies are so discounted.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Peaceful Deer stamp set and Garden Green ink. I cut it out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. The Peaceful Deer stamp set is unfortunately not available right now but is estimated to be back in stock the week of December 13th. The Peaceful Deer stamp set and the coordinating Deer Builder Punch are not retiring (yay!!) BUT the Peaceful Deer Bundle is retiring on January 3, 2022 and beginning on January 4th, these two products will be sold separately. The Peaceful Deer Bundle is also unavailable but is estimated to also be back in stock the week of December 13th
To complete the card, I added three Rhinestone Basic Jewels for some sparkle and added a piece of Basic White cardstock inside. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

I have one more card using the card design I used to make the card from yesterday and the one from last week. It’s SUCH a versatile design and I really got on a roll making these cards!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the card base and then layered a piece of Blushing Bride cardstock with a piece of Basic White cardstock that was embossed using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder. I then layered Blushing Bride cardstock with a piece of Whimsy & Wonder Designer Series Paper. The sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Tidings & Trimmings and then was layered with another piece of Blushing Bride cardstock.
I placed a Stampin’ Dimensional in the center of the Wonderful Snowflake before adhering it to the front of the card. I made a small silver foil snowflake out of Silver Foil Specialty Paper using the So Many Snowflakes Dies. I added small dots of glue to the snowflake before adhering it to the center of the large iridescent snowflake.
I won’t be posting on Thursday so I can enjoy being with my family but for those of you that live in the United States, I want to wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving!
