by Tracy | Jun 8, 2021 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting
Today’s card is one that was included in my recent You’re a Peach Card Sampler and features Stampin’ Up! You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper. I love the paper in this collection and for some reason, I’m having a craving for peach pie!
I started with a base of Thick Whisper White cardstock and then added two pieces of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper. Next, I added a layer of Basic White cardstock and another design of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper. This layer has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back.
Using the Scalloped Contours Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut the sentiment piece out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Calypso Coral ink using the stamp set Biggest Wish. I LOVE the font used for this sentiment.
You can find the measurements I used to create today’s card below the Supply List. Thanks for stopping by!

by Tracy | May 26, 2021 | Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
Today’s card features the Artistically Inked Bundle which includes the Artistically Inked stamp set and the Artistic Dies. I also used the new Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Magenta Madness cardstock. I added another layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
I stamped the flowers using the Artistically Inked stamp set in Magenta Madness ink and for the leaves I used Pear Pizzazz ink. This stamp set is one of our Distinktive sets which show different opacities in a single stamped image. I cut the flowers and leaves with the Artistic Dies.
The sentiment was stamped using the Artistically Inked stamp set with Magenta Madness ink and was cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. 99.9% of the time I pop my sentiment up with Stampin’ Dimensionals but because I used Dimensionals on the flower closest to the sentiment, I simply adhered the sentiment with Stampin’ Seal. I used Mini Glue Dots to attach the leaves to the flowers and then used Stampin’ Seal to adhere the top flower to the base and put dimensionals on the other one. To complete the card, I added three Artistic Blooms Sequins. I love using these sequins because they have adhesive on the back!
I made another version of the card, below, using Fresh Freesia cardstock and Fresh Freesia ink.
All the products I used for both cards can be found below in the Supply List.

Today’s card features Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper and the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set, both from the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. This card was one of three included in my recent Hand-Penned Card Sampler.
I started with a piece of Highland Heather cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added squares/rectangles of Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper to a piece of Basic White cardstock and then adhered it to the card base.
The sentiment was stamped in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Hand-Penned Petals onto Memento Ink.The sentiment was cut out using the Layering Circles Dies along with larger circles out of Highland Heather cardstock and Basic White cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and also added them on the back of the Highland Heather circle before adhering it to the card base. To complete the card, a piece of Basic White was adhered to the inside.

Today’s card features the beautiful Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper, 3/8″ Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and the stamp set, Biggest Wish.
Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper is beautiful! Some of the designs have gold accents including the one I used for today’s card (the center of each flower and scattered around the background).
The base of my card is Thick Basic White cardstock. I then layered a piece of the Designer Series Paper onto Pear Pizzazz cardstock. Before adhering this layer to the card base, I wrapped the Pale Papaya ribbon around it and tied a knot.
Using the Stitched Rectangle Dies, I cut a rectangle out of Basic White cardstock for the sentiment. I stamped it using the Stamparatus with the Biggest Wish stamp set in Pear Pizzazz ink. I was having trouble getting a nice solid image and the Stamparatus came to the rescue. The sentiment piece is small but because the magnets are so strong, I was able to easily stamp the sentiment twice for the bold image I wanted.
I added Stampin’ Dimensionals in the four corners of the sentiment and adhered it over the ribbon. This card is very easy to make but the paper & ribbon will wow anyone!

The Best Deal in the Catalog
If you’re planning to make a $99 purchase, you might want to consider the Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit because you can turn that $99 purchase into $155 in Stampin’ Up! product! It sounds like there has to be a catch, but there isn’t! When you purchase the Starter Kit, you’ll pay Stampin’ Up! $99 but then they’ll ask you to choose $155 in Stampin’ Up! product. Normally you would choose $125, which is a great deal, but this month Stampin’ Up! is offering $30 more in product! Plus, the Starter Kit always ships FREE. After purchasing the Starter Kit you’ll be able to get your future purchases at a 20% discount.
There’s no risk in signing up! To stay active, the quarterly minimum is $300 in product (which is only $240 after your discount!) that can be from personal orders, online orders or ones from family and friends. The quarters are January – March, April – June, July – September, October – December. Once you join, your quarterly minimum begins during your first FULL quarter so if you joined this month, your first minimum would be due at the end of September! If you don’t meet the minimum, you’re simply dropped. It really is a great deal and even better this month! For more information about the Starter Kit, please click here. Please feel free to email with any questions you might have!
Stampin’ Rewards
Did you know that when your order reaches $150, you start earning Stampin’ Rewards (free product)? With a $150 order, you’ll receive 10% of your order ($15.00) in rewards. You can choose any current product as well as our host only rewards on pages 170-171 in the Annual Catalog and page 88 in the Mini Catalog. Until June 14th, Stampin’ Up! is offering an extra $25.00 in rewards with any orders that reach $250. So in addition to receiving $25.00 in rewards for a $250 order, you’d receive an extra $25 for a total of $50 to spend on any current Stampin’ Up! product.
Another way to earn this perk would be to have me open a host code for you. You’d give that host code to any friends or family and they’d use that code when placing their online orders. Since you’re the host, you’d get credit for their orders and start earning rewards once the combined orders reach $150. If the combined orders reach $250, you’ll earn an extra $25!

Today’s card is from one of my past Card Samplers and it features the Pretty Perennials stamp set and Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper.
Did you know the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog will be retiring soon? The retirement list for this catalog will be coming out in early June and all the retiring products will be available until June 30th or while supplies last. The Pretty Perennials stamp set and coordinating Perennial Petals Dies will both be retiring as well as the Pretty Perennials Bundle which includes both of these products (bundles always save you 10%).
Another product that will be retiring in June is Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper. I have loved creating cards with this paper!
To create today’s card I started with a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock cut at 11″ x 4-1/4″ and scored at 5-1/2″. Then I trimmed one end at 2-3/4″ (you can find all the rest of the measurements below the Supply List). The piece that’s been cut off is used for the sentiment piece.
I added a piece of Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper to the front panel and also cut a small butterfly out of this same paper using the Brilliant Wings Dies. To attach the butterfly to the card, I used a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional but you could also use a Mini Glue Dot.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink and my Stamparatus. I wanted the word “happy” to be nice and bold and you can always achieve that look when using the Stamparatus because you can stamp over and over again in the exact same place. “Sending Lots of” was stamped in Melon Mambo ink using a clear block, not the Stamparatus. This piece was adhered to the Melon Mambo cardstock that was trimmed off. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to one side of the sentiment piece and attached it to the front panel. To complete the card, I added three Basic Rhinestone Jewels for some sparkle!
