I have a sneak peek of two new products coming out on September 3, 2025! The new products are:
- Gathering Together Specialty Designer Series Paper #165969. This Designer Series Paper will be an Online Exclusive.
- Branching Out Stamp Set #165771. This product can be found in our September – December 2025 Mini Catalog.
The other products I used were Sentimental Framing Dies and Low Profile Dots. Both of these products are Online Exclusives.
I started with a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock that I scored in two places (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I added Gathering Together Specialty Designer Series Paper on both of the front flaps.
Then, I cut another piece of Cajun Craze cardstock and layered it with another piece of Gathering Together Specialty Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals at the top and adhered it to the top flap.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Branching Out Stamp Set (this stamp set will be available on September 3, 2025). I stamped the sentiment using Cajun Craze ink. I cut it out using the Sentimental Framing Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three gold Low Profile Dots on the Designer Series Paper (the leaves have gold on them) and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle (an Online Exclusive), Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper, Textured Notes Dies (an Online Exclusive) and Two-Tone Sparkle Gems (an Online Exclusive).
If my links don’t work, please click them again!
I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then, I embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered one to the top panel and the other inside the card.
Then, I cut two pieces of Balmy Blue cardstock using the second largest die in the Textured Notes Dies. Then, I used the third largest die and cut a piece out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper and one out of Basic White cardstock. I adhered both to the Balmy Blue pieces (one will go inside the card and one will go in the front).
I adhered the Balmy Blue & Basic White cardstock piece to the inside (you can see the picture below) and the other to the front of the card, making sure they are on top of each other (I added two rows of Stampin’ Dimensionals to the front piece). I cut a butterfly out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper and adhered a tiny strip of glue on the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Balmy Blue ink using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set onto Basic White cardstock. Then, I cut it out using the Textured Notes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below the butterfly.
To complete my card, I added a Two-Tone Sparkle Gem to the middle of the butterfly and added two more at each end of the sentiment.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Linked Together Bundle (which incudes the Linked Together stamp set, Linked Together dies and Linked Together Decorative Masks – I didn’t use the masks on my card). I also used Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Purple Fine Shimmer Gems.
I started with a piece of Highland Heather cardstock for the base of my card and then scored it in two places (you can the measurements I used below the Supply List). I burnished the score lines with my bone folder.
I cut two pieces of Perennial Lavender DSP and adhered them to the front flaps. Then I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Gorgeous Grape ink and the stamp set, Linked Together. I cut the sentiment out using the Linked Together Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top of the sentiment and adhered it to the top flap.
Using the Linked Together Dies I cut two flowers out of Highland Heather cardstock and two more flowers out of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I adhered them together with Multipurpose Glue (on the bottom flower) and then adhered them to the sentiment. I added a Purple Fine Shimmer Gem to the middle of each flower.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Paper Pumpkin Kit – Hello Spring

Thanks for stopping by today!
by Tracy | May 11, 2022 | Fun Fold Card
I haven’t shared in a few days because my husband and I have been dealing with poison oak. Definitely not fun and it was hard to create with itching on my mind. Luckily we’re on the road to an itch free life once again.
Today I have two fun fold cards to share with you using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I shared another card using this same layout a few weeks ago but used our Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. You can see that card HERE.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and scored it in two places to make the fun fold (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). Then I cut and embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched Greenery Die and adhered them to the two panels on the front of the card.
Next, I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and adhered a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (only on the top section) and adhered it to the top panel. I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Happiness Abounds stamp set and cut it out using the Double Oval Punch. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.
Here’s another variation also using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper but this time I used Melon Mambo cardstock and Melon Mambo ink.
Supply List
Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s card. If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store.
Measurements
- Fresh Freesia/Melon Mambo cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″ score at 2-3/4″ & 8-1/4″
- Fresh Freesia/Melon Mambo cardstock: 4-1/4″ x 3-1/4″
- Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper: 4″ x 3″
- Basic White cardstock: (2) 4″ x 2-1/2″
- Basic White cardstock: scrap for sentiment
- Basic White cardstock (inside): 5-1/4″ x 4″
The month of May is the best time to purchase the Starter Kit because Stampin’ Up! has added even more value! You’ll receive an additional $66.50 in In Color products!

Have a wonderful day!

Before sharing today’s card, I wanted to share this update from Stampin’ Up! about the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends:
The new Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends from the All Together promotion have been a huge hit and we’re happy to see so many people embrace these new marker shades!
Unfortunately, because of global shipping delays, our North America stock of markers may sell out before our restock shipment arrives. This means there will be a period of time where the markers, and collections that include the markers, will be unavailable for purchase.
The good news is that the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends are a permanent addition to our marker collection, and we are optimistic that they will be back in stock by the launch of our 2022–2023 Annual Catalog! If you don’t snag your markers before they sell out this time around, you can purchase them in May.
Click here to see the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends over at my Stampin’ Up! online store (scroll down to see the individual sets of markers or the entire collection of markers can be purchased)
Today’s fun fold card features several Sale-a-Bration products. Sale-a-Bration is that time of year when you can earn free products with every $50 or $100 you spend (before tax and shipping). If you’ve never heard of Sale-a-Bration, you can read all about it here. I used the Friendly Hello Bundle which includes the Friendly Hello stamp set and Friendly Hello 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. It can be earned with a $100 purchase. I also used the Special Moments stamp set which can also be earned with a $100 purchase.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock which is the base of the card (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). I cut a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock that I folded in half and adhered a piece of Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper to the front. I also adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Before adhering this piece to the card base, I cut another piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock and scored it to make a flap. I added adhesive to the front side of the flap and adhered it to the back of the Granny Apple Green/Designer Series Paper piece (use a strong adhesive such as Multipurpose Glue). Then I added adhesive to the back and placed it on the Thick Basic White cardstock.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and placed it inside one of the Meadow Moments embossing folders and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I placed it on the front of the flap. Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut two rectangles, one out of Basic White cardstock and a slightly larger one out of Granny Apple Green cardstock. I stamped the sentiment onto the Basic White rectangle using Granny Apple Green ink and the stamp set, Special Moments and then adhered it to the Granny Apple Green rectangle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added two Brushed Brass Butterflies to the sentiment piece.

Today I have a sneak peek of Heart & Home Designer Series Paper (#157928) which will debut on January 4, 2022 in the January-June Mini Catalog. If you’ve ordered from me in the last six months, I ordered a new catalog for you and had Stampin’ Up! send it to you (along with the Sale-a-Bration brochure). I’ve heard that some people have already received it so if you haven’t, it’s on the way!
Heart & Home Designer Series Paper is part of the Heart & Home Suite. The colors that coordinate with this package of paper are:
This is a very quick and easy card to make. The measurements are listed below the Supply List and you can see how to fold the cardstock and where to place your adhesive in a previous post HERE. After you make the base of the card, you’ll add the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper to the front and then wrap your ribbon around the smaller section. The sentiment was stamped in Garden Green ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Flowing Flowers. I cut it out using one of the dies from the Pretty Pillowbox Dies. These dies were in the Holiday Mini Catalog but are being carried over and will continue to be available.
I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the front of the card. Quick and easy!
