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.

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.
