The card I’m sharing today uses the Free as a Bird Bundle. This bundle includes the stamp set, Free as a Bird, and the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. You’ll always save 10% on a bundle so if you’re thinking about purchasing both of these items, be sure to use item #151123.
All of the products I’ve used can be found in the supply list towards the end of the post. Simply click any product and you’ll be taken to that product in my Stampin’ Up! online store.


I used our 2019-2021 In Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) in Pretty Peacock along with Pretty Peacock, Night of Navy and Whisper White cardstock. Before I glued the DSP onto the Whisper White, I embossed it using the Brick & Mortar embossing folder and my die-cutting machine. I wrapped our Pretty Peacock 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon around the panel before gluing it to the Pretty Peacock cardstock.

The sentiment was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink and cut out with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Using the same dies, a larger one was cut out of Night of Navy cardstock. The two pieces were adhered together using Snail but then Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back of the Night of Navy shape.
I added three Noble Peacock Rhinestones in Pretty Peacock to complete the card.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend!
Today’s card was made using Mosaic Mood Designer Series Paper. I also used the stamp set, Stitched All Around and the coordinating Stitched Labels Dies.
I stamped the sentiment three different times – twice in Terracotta Tile and once in Mint Macaron. The first one was stamped in Terracotta Tile and cut out with the larger die pictured below. Then I stamped it again in Mint Macaron and cut just the center using the smaller die. Then I stamped it again in Terracotta Tile and just cut out “thank you” using my Paper Snips. I used Snail to adhere them all together but added Stampin Dimensionals to the back of the larger piece and adhered it to a 2″ circle of Terracotta Tile. I also added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Terracotta Tile circle.

Happy Friday! I’m glad you’ve stopped by today!
One of my first purchases from the new Annual Catalog was the Doily Wishes Dies. I immediately loved the intricate dies but decided I didn’t want the Wish For It All stamp set. Well, the other day I purchased the stamp set and I’m disappointed because I lost out on saving 10%. Had I purchased the two products together using the special bundle item number, I would have saved 10%! I hate when that happens!

My card today uses the Doily Wishes Dies and the stamp set, Here’s a Card. I needed a small greeting, which is why I didn’t use the Wish For It All stamp set. The sentiment was stamped in Highland Heather and was cut out using the 1″ Circle Punch. I cut a scalloped oval using Pool Party cardstock and the 1-1/8″ Scallop Circle Punch for the sentiment to sit on. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back.
A piece of 6″ x 6″ Subtles Designer Series Paper in Pool Party sits on my base of Pool Party cardstock (Thick Whisper White cardstock would also work).

The piece of Whisper White cardstock is embossed using the Eyelet Lace Embossing Folder. I finished the card by adding our Basic Adhesive Backed Sequins.

This card will be my free PDF Tutorial on Tuesday, which will include all the measurements, so check back next week. Thanks for stopping by today!

by Tracy | Aug 7, 2019 | Designer Series Paper, Layering Ovals Dies

I’m in love with our Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper. This paper is so gorgeous that you really don’t need to add much else to your card. I used two different designs in this pack of paper for the two layers of my card. They coordinate so well together!

The base of the card is Blueberry Bushel. The first layer of Designer Series Paper was adhered with Snail but the top layer has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back, as does the sentiment. Adding Dimensionals to a layer really changes the look of a card.

The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using Blueberry Bushel ink and the stamp set, Parcels & Petals. It was cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies.

by Tracy | Aug 5, 2019 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Layering Ovals Dies, Stitched Shapes Dies

Happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend! Last week we went on a mini vacation where we were just a block away from the beach. Several mornings we got up and walked down to the beach to watch the waves and the surfers. I wish I could wake up to that every single morning. It’s so calming and beautiful. While we were away, my husband, Mark, and I also celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary. It was really nice getting away for a few days.
When we got home from our vacation, I created today’s card which uses an oldie but goodie die, Springtime Impressions, which includes a beautiful die-cut butterfly.

I paired it with our Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper and Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I absolutely love this Designer Series Paper. It’s gorgeous!


I used the stamp set Parcels & Petals for the sentiment and inked it up with Blackberry Bliss. I cut it out with the Stitched Shapes Dies and then cut a Blackberry Bliss scalloped oval using the Layering Ovals Dies. The Stitched Shapes Dies are very versatile because they coordinate with the Layering Circles Dies, Layering Squares Dies and Layering Ovals Dies.


The smaller layer of cardstock and Designer Series Paper was popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals as well as the Blackberry Bliss scalloped oval. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals were used on the back of the butterfly to give it dimension too!
Bundle Alert
When you purchase the Parcels & Petals Bundle, you’ll save 10%. It includes the Parcels & Petals stamp set and the Perfect Parcels Dies. Be sure to use the bundle item number 151107.
