by Tracy | Feb 9, 2021 | Die-Cutting, Rectangle Stitched Dies, Sympathy Card
Today’s sympathy card features the stamp set, Vine Design. Unfortunately this is a card I’ll be sending to a friend who recently lost her mother. My friend is in her late thirties so it will be a difficult one to send.


The base of my card is Seaside Spray cardstock. I stamped the vines onto another piece of Seaside Spray cardstock using Seaside Spray ink and then cut it out using the Rectangle Stitched Dies. I layered it onto another piece of Seaside Spray cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Before adding these two layers to the card base, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back.

The sentiment was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink onto Seaside Spray cardstock and was cut out using the Ornate Frames Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to the front of the card. To complete the card, I added three of our Pearls below the sentiment.

Today’s card features two new products in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog: Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper and Blackberry Bliss 3/8″ Striped Ribbon.


I started with a base of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I adhered a piece of Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper to a piece of Basic White cardstock (all the measurements I used can be found below the Supply List). Then I wrapped our beautiful Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon around this layer (this ribbon went on backorder this morning but as of right now, it can still be added to your order and once it comes back in stock, Stampin’ Up! will mail the ribbon out to you). I added adhesive to the back of the Basic White cardstock and adhered the layer to the card base.

I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Today’s Tiles. I bought this stamp set just for this particular sentiment – I love it! I cut the sentiment out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I layered it onto a larger Basic White rectangle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

To complete the card, I added three Artistry Blooms Adhesive Backed Sequins to the front and also adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Host Code
Use my host code below when placing your online order of $150 or less and I’ll send you an extra card kit! Orders over $150 will automatically receive an extra card kit. The reason you don’t want to use the host code when placing a $150 or more order is that when you reach $150, you hit the sweet spot and begin earning Stampin’ Rewards directly from Stampin’ Up!. When your order is over $150 AND you use a host code, you forfeit your rewards and I don’t want that to happen. So, under $150, use the host code. Over $150, do not use the host code and start earning free product! If you have any questions, please let me know.
