The card I’m sharing with you today is a fun fold card. It’s the same layout of Monday’s card, but I made one tweak. You can see Monday’s card, here. I used Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive and on sale for the month of August), Perfectly Pears Stamp Set (an Online Exclusive), Nested Essentials Dies, Low Profile Sparkle Dots (an Online Exclusive and on sale for the month of August but they are in Low Inventory status).
I started with a base of Darling Duckling cardstock (on sale this month). Then, I scored it (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). I added a piece of Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper to the back panel and one to the front panel.
I cut a piece of Old Olive cardstock and added a panel of Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper to the front (you’ll need to look at the picture to see how it goes on the card). I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the Old Olive panel.
I then used Multipurpose Glue to adhered the Old Olive piece to the inside of the card (the front flap will go in the front).
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Perfectly Pears Stamp Set in Old Olive ink. I cut it out using the Nested Essentials Dies using the smallest rectangular die in the set. I cut the next larger size rectangle in Old Olive cardstock and adhered the sentiment to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the bottom right of the Old Olive flap. I did the sentiment there because I didn’t want to cover up the beautiful paper. To complete my card I added three Low Profile Sparkle Dots in Mossy Meadow to the front panel.

Happy Saturday! Today I’m sharing a quick and easy card using the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More Card Pack. I also used the Country Birdhouse stamp set, the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder (currently on the Low Inventory List) and Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder. After I embossed the cardstock, I adhered it to the front of the card.
Next, I stamped the sentiment on one of the cards in the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More Card Pack using Misty Moonlight ink and the Country Birdhouse stamp set. Then, I layered the card onto a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card. To complete my card, I added three Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems to the card front and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Like I said, this is a very quick and easy card!

Before I share my card with you today, I want to reach out to a customer who placed an order with me on June 20th. The customer used my host code to get a Mystery Box but they checked the box that says “No Contact”. I called Stampin’ Up! and they can’t share the name with me because the no contact box was checked. If this was you, can you please contact me (click the sidebar to email me) with the total of your order and I’ll get your Mystery Box sent out to you.
On to my card for today! I made my card using Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper, Friends for Life Dies, Dashing Designs Embossing Folder and Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots.
I started with Daffodil Delight cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock with the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered them to the card front.
I adhered a piece of Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper (DSP) to a piece of Garden Green cardstock and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I used the Friends for Life Dies to cut out the background for friend in Garden Green cardstock. I cut the word friend out of Basic White cardstock but I added an Adhesive Sheet to the back (it makes it so much easier to adhere it to the background “friend”). With these dies you have to be careful that you don’t lose the very small piece that dots the “i”. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Garden Green cardstock (I had to cut several in half ) and adhered friend to the DSP.
To complete my card, I added three Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots to the front.

The card I’m sharing today is the exact card from Wednesday but I used different Designer Series Paper and cardstock. You can see Wednesday’s card here. I used the Friends for Life Bundle, Country Lace Designer Series Paper, Cute Crochet 3D Embossing Folder and Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems.
I started with Petal Pink cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Cute Crochet 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.
I layered a piece of Petal Pink cardstock with a piece of Country Lace Designer Series Paper (DSP) – this paper is currently on the Low Inventory List, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the embossed cardstock.
I used the Friends for Life Dies to cut a Basic White background for “friend” and used the same pattern of Country Lace DSP to cut the actual word friend. I used Adhesive Sheets on the back of the Country Lace DSP to make gluing “friend” easier. I adhered the two pieces together, added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered “friend” to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Friends for Life stamp set in Boho Blue ink. I then used my Paper Snips to cut it to the size I wanted or you could use the Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it under “friend”.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White to the inside of the card and added three Petal Pink Foiled Gems to the front.

I have a card to share with you today but first . . . . .
A New Promotion Begins Today!!!
Stampin’ Up! is offering an additional 10% off all stamp and die bundles (that’s a total of 20% off)! PLUS, save 10% off the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. It’s very rare that I don’t emboss or die cut when making a card. I love my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine!
- This promotion does not include stamp & punch bundles.
- The Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine comes in white and Boho Blue. Boho Blue is available while supplies last.
- I’m anticipating that some of the bundles could go out of stock and I don’t how long it will take to get back in stock, so shop EARLY!
- The 10% discount will be applied automatically to stamp and die bundles.
- This promotion ends on June 30th.
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Friends for Life Bundle which includes the Friends for Life stamp set and the Friends for Life Dies (and this is one of the bundles on sale for the rest of the month!). For this first card, I used Full of Life 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder and Tinsel Gems Four Pack.
I started with a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I put Basic White cardstock into the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
I layered a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock with Full of Life Designer Series Paper, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the embossed Basic White cardstock.
I used the Friends for Life Dies to cut the background for “friend” out of Basic White cardstock and the word friend out of Pretty Peacock cardstock. I used an adhesive sheet on the back of the Pretty Peacock cardstock to make gluing this so much easier. I added the word friend to the Basic White background and then added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and then, adhered it to the Designer Series Paper.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Friends for Life stamp set and Melon Mambo ink. Then, I used my Paper Snips to cut the sentiment to the size I wanted. You could also use our Paper Trimmer. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below “friend”.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of my card and added three gems to the front of the card. I’ve added the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Mystery Boxes
What’s a Mystery Box?
A Mystery Box is filled with retired products that I’d like to give to a new home. I’ve been a demonstrator for almost 15 years so you can just imagine how much I have! I have Medium Rate Flat Rate USPS shipping boxes stuffed with retired Stampin’ Up! product.The boxes contain stamps, dies, ribbon, embellishments and more! The boxes are already sealed and every box will be different and a mystery as to what’s inside! The value of each box is well over $200.
All of the products in the Mystery Boxes have retired but some have never been used, some are used and all are “as is”. Some of the stamp sets are wood mount.
You can place an order HERE.
There are two ways to get a Mystery Box
- Place a $125 or more order (before shipping/tax) at my Stampin’ Up! online store using the host code KQB3BP3Q and I will send a Mystery Box to you as a free gift and I’ll even pay the postage!
