The card I’m sharing with you today was made with the following products: Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and Starburst Sequins.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper to the front of the card. Next, I used a piece of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies. I ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Fresh Freesia ink using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set. When I cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies, I had the sentiment over to very right because I slipped the excess under the butterfly. I then set the sentiment aside.
I cut the solid butterfly out of Fresh Freesia cardstock and the detailed one out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies (these dies come with Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder). I adhered the detailed butterfly to the solid butterfly running a small amount of glue down the middle of the detailed butterfly. I cut an antenna for the butterfly out of Basic White cardstock and adhered the antenna to the body of the butterfly using Multipurpose Glue.
I decided where I wanted the sentiment to go and adhered it to the card. Then, I put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the butterfly and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and three small Starburst Sequins to the front of the card.

Today I’m sharing two products with the same exact products. I used Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper, the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, Spotlight on Nature Dies, Nested Essentials Dies and the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder. (If any links don’t work, please try again. I always test my links and some didn’t open for me. These products are all current so if you’re taken to a generic SU! page, please try the link again).
I started with a piece of Garden Green cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock. I added one to the inside of the card and with the other one I slipped it inside the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
I then cut a piece of Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (DSP) and adhered it to the front of the card. Then, I chose another pattern of Lovely Garden DSP and made a banner with using the Nested Essentials Dies. I then adhered it to the front of the card.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper, Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, Spotlight on Nature dies, and Party Dots. If any links don’t work, please try them again. Stampin’ Up! let demos know that this is a global issue impacting links beyond just Stampin’ Up!, meaning you may encounter other broken links while browsing the web. Stampin’ Up! has not yet provided an estimated timeline for resolution.
I started with Pretty in Pink cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut a piece of Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the front of the card. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
I used the Spotlight on Nature Dies to cut a large circle and a smaller circle out of Basic White cardstock. Then, I punched the premade die cuts out and arranged them on the larger circle and adhered the die cuts down. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and then set it aside.
I stamped my sentiment on the smaller circle in Blueberry Bushel ink. Next, I decided where I wanted the circles to be on the card front. I adhered the smaller circle first and then the larger circle.
To complete my card, I added three Party Dots in Pretty in Pink to the larger circle and then added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. I love how this card turned out and I’m having fun using the Wildflower Birthday DSP.

To create today’s card I used the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (free with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration), Nested Essentials Dies and Sunny Day Iridescent Dots.
I used Daffodil Delight cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut a piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and layered it with a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
I cut a butterfly using the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder and one of the dies that comes with it using Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (free with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration). I cut the thorax out of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the butterfly using Multipurpose Glue. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Butterfly but waited to adhere it to the embossed Basic White cardstock until I stamped the sentiment.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Beautiful Butterflies and Pumpkin Pie ink. I cut it out using the Nested Essentials Dies. I wanted to tuck the sentiment behind the butterfly so once I knew where I wanted the sentiment to go, I adhered it down and then added the butterfly.
To complete my card, I added three Sunny Day Dots in Pumpkin Pie around the butterfly and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

The card I’m sharing with you today is a sneak peek at one of the new Designer Series Papers in the new Mini Catalog, Floral Delight #164700. This new catalog will be live on January 7, 2025. I also used the Everyday Greetings stamp set and Spotlight on Nature Dies.

I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock for the base of my card.

Then, I adhered another design in the Floral Delight DSP pack to a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Everyday Greetings stamp set in Balmy Blue ink. Next, I cut it out using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I then 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.
Here’s another version of the card using the Simply Said stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies and Old Olive and Daffodil Delight cardstock and Old Olive ink.
