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!

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 I’m sharing several more versions of the card I shared on Friday. For these versions, I used different colors and the new Animal Print embossing folder. On Friday I shared a FREE PDF Tutorial for this card using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. If you’d like the measurements I used, you can see that post here and be sure to scroll down past the Supply List to access the tutorial.
All three of my cards today were made using the Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Friendship stamp set. For this first card I used Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends and Fresh Freesia cardstock.

For this next card, I used Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends and Pale Papaya cardstock.

For this last card, I used Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends and Poppy Parade cardstock.


Flowers of Friendship is a great stamp set for coloring, especially for someone who doesn’t have much experience using our Blends. The coloring areas aren’t super detailed so it makes for a relaxing experience!

The Flowers of Friendship Bundle (bundles save you 10%) is also available. It includes the Flowers of Friendship stamp set and the Flowers & Leaves punch.

Today’s card is one that was included in my Pansy Petals Card Sampler last month. It features Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper, Hippo & Friends Dies and the stamp set, Free as a Bird.

I started with a base of Evening Evergreen cardstock and then added a layer of Soft Sea Foam cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. Our 3D embossing folders are very thick and if you’ve never used one before, you’ll need to use our Specialty Plate when running it through your machine (this plate is not included with the machine). The “sandwich” you’ll use when running it through your machine is little bit different than the sandwich used with our standard embossing folders. You’ll start with the Base Plate, then the embossing folder with paper inside and the Specialty Plate on top (the sandwich for a standard folder is Base Plate, cutting plate, embossing folder, cutting plate). There’s nothing like a beautifully embossed piece of paper!

Next, I adhered a panel of Evening Evergreen cardstock with a piece of Pansy Petal Designer Series Paper. The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Free as a Bird. Using the Evening Evergreen stamp pad is also a good option to stamp the sentiment. When I made the card, customers were not yet able to purchase the new stamp pad so I opted for Mossy Meadow. I cut both the sentiment and the Soft Sea Foam layer beneath it using the Hippo & Friends Dies. I love the stitching around the edges!


To complete my card, I added three Opal Rounds to the front of the card and added a panel of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
