Today I’m sharing a card I made using Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (DSP) #164944. This DSP is a Sale-a-Bration product and when your order is $60 you can choose this paper and it will be FREE. Sale-a-Bration starts on January 7th and runs through February 28th. I made another card using Bloom Impressions DSP and you can see it here. To create my card I also used the Unbounded Love stamp set and Stylish Shapes Dies.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a layer of Basic White to the front of the card. I cut another piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock and set it aside (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I cut Bloom Impressions DSP and then cut it into strips 3/4″ wide. I then glued the pieces to the Blackberry Bliss cardstock that I set aside and adhered it to the Basic White cardstock.
Then, I stamped my sentiment on Basic White cardstock in Blackberry Bliss ink using the stamp set, Unbounded Love. I cut it out with the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut a larger circle out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the same dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
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.
Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper #164944 will be available on January 7, 2025 as a Sale-a-Bration free product with a $60 purchase.
Bundle Alert: The Unbounded Love Bundle is available with a 10% discount rather than buying the stamp set and dies separately.

Today I’m sharing a card that was made using Stampin’ Up! Country Woods Designer Series Paper, the Happiest Day stamp set and Everyday Details Dies. I struggle with making birthday cards for men but I think this would be perfect for a man!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut three pieces of Country Woods Designer Series Paper and then adhered them to the front of the card. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Misty Moonlight ink using the stamp set, Happiest Day. Then, I cut it out using the Everyday Details Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card. This is optional.

Today’s card was made using the Pocket Thoughts Bundle which includes the Pocket Thoughts stamp set and the Pocket Thoughts Dies. I also used Thoughtful Designs 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper.
I started with a base of Petunia Pop cardstock. I made the pocket using the Pocket Thoughts Dies and Thoughtful Designs Designer Series Paper. I added Tear & Tape to the pocket edges and then adhered it to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I added the entire piece to the front of the card.
I stamped the cupcake in Memento Black ink and then colored the cupcake using Stampin’ Blends: Dark Lemon Lolly and both Light & Dark Petunia Pop. I cut the cupcake out using one of the circles in the Stylish Shapes Dies and then adhered it to the front of the pocket.
I stamped the sentiment in Petunia Pop ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Pocket Thoughts stamp set. I cut it out using a smaller circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it beside the cupcake.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below) and used a hole punch to punch a hole at the top. Then, I put a piece of Silver & White ribbon through the hole and tied the ribbon off using White Baker’s Twine. After doing that, I trimmed the ends of the ribbon and twine. I adhered the gift card to the Basic White cardstock using Mini Glue Dots.
To complete my card I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card and added three Shimmer Gems around the cupcake and sentiment in Petunia Pop.

Today I’m sharing a card that was made using the Unbounded Love Bundle, the Flowers of Beauty Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper and 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems.
I started with a piece of Summer Splash cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and adhered it to the card front.
I didn’t use adhesive sheets before running my Basic White cardstock and Glimmer Paper through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Flowers of Beauty Dies and regretted it. It’s so much easier to lay the pieces down onto the front of your card with adhesive on the back but as I said I didn’t do it. I ended up using Mini Glue Dots. So, don’t do as I did, use the adhesive sheets!
I used the Flowers of Beauty Dies to cut the Petunia Pop flowers and then attached them to the Basic White die cut leaf using Mini Glue Dots. I snipped off the end of the Basic White die cut leaf so it wouldn’t peek out under the sentiment. Then, I laid the Basic White die cut leaf to the front of the card.
Then, I adhered the Glimmer Paper die cut leaf on top of the Basic White die cut leaf, at an angle. I stamped the sentiment in Petunia Pop ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Unbounded Love. I cut it out using Unbounded Love Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the base of the leaves.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added three In Color Shimmer Gems to the center of three flowers and two on the sentiment.

Two New Kits by Stampin’ Up!
Click each image for more information about the kit.
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! Using the host code will alert me that you want a Mystery Box. If your order is $150 or more, please DO NOT use the host code so you can receive Stampin’ Rewards (free product) directly from Stampin’ Up!. After you’ve placed your order (only if your order is $150 or more), please email me that you’d like a Mystery Box (click “Email Me” on the sidebar).
- If you don’t want to place an order, you can purchase a Mystery Box for $80 plus $15.00 postage. Email me that you want a box and I’ll send you a PayPal invoice (click “Email Me” on the sidebar).
More Information
- You must use the host code KQB3BP3Q when placing your order (if your order is over $150, do not use the host code – see above)
- $125 order must be before tax/shipping amount
- One box per order
- Using the host code will let me know you want a Mystery Box
- You’ll receive at least TWO Bradley Points with your order
- No refunds or exchanges.
- Each box will be different and a mystery! The boxes are already sealed up and I’m unable to take requests for the contents of the boxes.
- All of the original Mystery Boxes are gone but I’m boxing up more!
- Feel free to email me before placing an order to see if I have boxes available.
I will be out of town and will return on Saturday so I won’t be able to mail any Mystery Boxes until Monday, June 18th. My parents had a second house so my sister and I are going to tackle that this week.

by Tracy | Aug 12, 2023 | Happy Birthday Card
Thanks so much for your understanding as to why I haven’t been posting. I arrived home a few days ago after being at my mom’s house for four months but I plan to go back in a few weeks. My Mom lived in her home for 53 years! We contacted a realtor and will be selling our family home. My sister and I have been working hard each day to go through all of our mom’s things, which has been excruciating. She loved Christmas and decorated her house so that it was a magical place. Last week we went through her Christmas decorations and I will be bringing quite a lot of them home with me (so many memories!!). Since my dad passed away first, we didn’t have to take the house apart and I really didn’t understand how very hard it is to disassemble someone’s life. My heart goes out to everyone who’s already done this.
I still won’t be posting every day but today I do have two cards to share that I made a few weeks ago. They both use the same products but I used different Designer Series Paper for each one. Both cards were made with the Wanted to Say Dies, Scalloped Contours Dies and one of the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folders.
For this first card, the base of my card is Bubble Bath cardstock. Then I added a piece of Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper to the front of the card. I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then cut another piece of Basic White cardstock to fit on the scalloped rectangle but first I ran it through one of the Stripes & Splatters Embossing Folders. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the scalloped rectangle and adhered it to the front of the card.
Next, I used the Wanted to Say Dies to cut the words, Happy Birthday. I used Bubble Bath for the background piece and Basic White for the actual words. I adhered the two pieces together and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back to adhere it to the card front.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
For this next card, I used Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper and Berry Burst cardstock.
