If you like cute animals, you’re going to love the stamp set, Count on Me, which is what I used for today’s card along with the Animal Print Embossing Folder.
I started with a piece a Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Balmy Blue cardstock. Next, I added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Animal Print Embossing Folder.
I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Circles Dies and cut a larger, scalloped circle out of Balmy Blue cardstock. On the Basic White circle, I stamped the sentiment towards the bottom of the circle using Memento Ink and then stamped the koalas above it, also using Memento Ink. I colored the koalas using my Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends. I adhered the Basic White circle to the Balmy Blue scalloped circle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added five Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins. I love the sparkle they add to the card! You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

July – December 2021 Mini Catalog & July – August Sale-a-Bration
There’s been a change in plans for the release of the July – December 2021 Mini Catalog and July – August Sale-a-Bration. When Stampin’ Up! realized they were not likely to receive the majority of product inventory for these two catalogs due to world-wide shipping problems, they made the difficult decision to delay the start of the new catalog and the Sale-a-Bration promotion (yes, this year we will have TWO Sale-a-Brations!). The July-December Mini Catalog will go live on August 3rd and Sale-a-Bration will also begin on this date!
If you’ve made a purchase from me in the last six months, I will be sending you a complimentary copy of both the July – December 2021 Mini Catalog and the July – August Sale-a-Bration brochure. They will be coming directly from Stampin’ Up! and both publications will ship in early July. Something to look forward to!!

Today’s card features the Sweet Strawberry Bundle which includes the Sweet Strawberry stamp set and the Strawberry Builder Punch. This bundle was on backorder for months but it’s back in stock and just in time for summer!
I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut Emboss Machine using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. Then I added a narrow piece of Real Red cardstock with another layer of Basic White that I also embossed.
Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink in the lower right-hand corner using the Sweet Strawberry stamp set. Using the same dies, I cut a larger rectangle out of Real Red cardstock and layered the two together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used two stamps to stamp the strawberry. The first one is the actual strawberry that I inked up with Real Red ink. The second stamp outlines the strawberry and adds the seeds. I used Garden Green ink to stamp the green part (I googled the actual name of this leafy green part and it’s called the calyx but I’m sticking to “the green part”) of the strawberry and then cut both the strawberry and green part out with the Strawberry Builder Punch. I added several Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the top strawberry.
To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems to the front of the card and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

The card I’m sharing today is one that was in my recent You’re a Peach Card Sampler. It features the Scalloped Contours Dies and You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper.
I started with a base of Calypso Coral cardstock and then added a layer of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper that I cut using the Scalloped Contours Dies.
The sentiment was stamped in Calypso Coral ink using the stamp set Biggest Wish and then cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Using another larger die from this set, I cut another piece out of Vellum cardstock and layered it with the sentiment. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the center of the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added three Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins for some sparkle.

Today’s card is a little twist on yesterday’s card with less elements. If you missed yesterday’s card, you can see it here.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. I then cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Circles Dies and stamped the sentiment using Blackberry Bliss ink and the Pansy Patch stamp set. The circle has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back because I love dimension on a card.
The flowers were cut out of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper using two of the outline dies in the Pansy Dies. So easy! The two pink flowers were adhered using adhesive and the purple one has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back.
To complete the card, I added three Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins.
Bundle Alert: The Pansy Patch Bundle will save you 10% and includes the Pansy Patch stamp set and the Pansy Dies.

Today’s card features Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper and the Pansy Patch Bundle which includes the Pansy Patch stamp set and the Pansy Dies.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered a layer of Highland Heather cardstock and Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper.
I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Circles Dies and then stamped the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink using the Pansy Patch stamp set. Before adhering the circle to the front of the card, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back to give it some pop.
Creating the pansies was simple! I cut them out of our Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper using the Petals Dies. Easy peasy! I adhered the two top pansies with Stampin’ Seal but then added several Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the smaller pansy. To complete the card, I added three Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins.
You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List. Thanks for stopping by today!
