The card I’m sharing today was made with Stampin’ Up! Cute as Can Bee Designer Series Paper, the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and I added some white embossing powder to the sentiment. This is a very quick and easy card to make!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I layered a piece of Cute As Can Bee Designer Series Paper (DSP) to a piece of Pool Party cardstock and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set onto Petunia Pop cardstock. I sprinkled white embossing powder over the sentiment and the shook off the excess. I used my Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder. Then, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside but before I adhered it, I added a piece of Cute as Can Bee DSP to the bottom of the Basic White.

Thanks for stopping by today and have a great weekend!
by Tracy | Jan 30, 2025 | Quick & Easy Card
I’m sharing two cards with you today and the first one was made using Stampin’ Up! Cute as Can Bee Designer Series Paper (which can be found in the January 2025 Scrapbooking Catalog, you can access this catalog on the sidebar on my blog), Bright Borders stamp set and the coordinating To the Point Label Punch (which is currently on the low inventory list), and the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder. I used all the same products for the second card but I substituted the Starstruck Embossing Folder (FREE with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration).
I started with a piece of Basic Black cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Petunia Pop cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and then I adhered it to the Basic Black base.
I cut a piece of Basic Black cardstock and layered it with Cute as Can Bee Designer Series Paper and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the Bright Borders stamp set to stamp the greenery and the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Old Olive ink. This is a photopolymer stamp set and what’s nice, is that you can see where you are stamping! Then, I punched it out using the To the Point Label Punch. Next, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhere it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three rhinestones to the embossed Petunia Pop cardstock and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.
Here’s the other card I made using the Starstruck Embossing Folder and I used a different sentiment in the Bright Borders stamp set.

Paper Pumpkin Kit – Hello Spring

Thanks for stopping by today!
by Tracy | Jul 4, 2022 | Quick & Easy Card
If you live in the U.S., Happy 4th of July!
Today’s card was made using Rings of Love 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. This is a Sale-a-Bration product you can earn with a $50 purchase! I absolutely love these little birds and I knew I wanted the least amount of birds to be covered up!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock. Then I added a piece of Rings of Love Designer Series Paper to a piece of Night of Navy cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Before adhering it to the card base, I wrapped White Baker’s Twine (included in the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack) and wrapped it around the two layers, twice, and tied a bow. Then I added adhesive to the back and adhered it to the card base.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Night of Navy ink using the new stamp set, Soft Seedlings (I love the font style of the sentiments in this set). Then I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and I cut a larger circle out of Night of Navy cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together and then added two Stampin’ Dimensionals at the top of the Night of Navy circle and two at the bottom ( I do this so that the dimensionals aren’t sitting on the twine). Super simple card but if you have a great Designer Series Paper, your card doesn’t have to be complicated!

Today’s card features the GORGEOUS Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper and the retiring, Happy & Heartfelt stamp set.
I started with a piece of Night of Navy cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock and a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper and layered them together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I stamped my sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Night of Navy ink and the stamp set, Happy & Heartfelt, which is retiring. This stamp set will be available while supplies last (when the Annual Catalog retired, stamp sets were the first to sell out). I used the Stylish Shapes Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut out the sentiment. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card and added three Glossy Dots.

The card I’m sharing today is a quick and easy one using Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies, Bouquet of Love Embossing Folder and the stamp set, By My Side.
I started with a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). This is one of five new In Colors Stampin’ Up! released with the new catalog! Next, I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. There’s an embossed heart in the center of the paper but I’ve covered it up (this embossing folder also comes with 9 dies).
To cover the heart up, I cut a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock and layered it with a piece of Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the layered piece and adhered it to the center of the card. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Sweet Sorbet ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, By My Side. This stamp set has some cute images and a lot of great sentiments.
I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I only added adhesive to the part of the sentiment that sits on the layered piece and placed it on the card. I used three of our new 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots below the sentiment. To complete the card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Today I have three quick and easy cards to share with you and all three cards were made using the Amazing Thanks Dies (these dies are compatible with the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine).
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Just Jade cardstock and Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper. Then I used the Amazing Thanks Dies to cut “thanks” out of Just Jade cardstock and Gold Foil. I layered the pieces together using small dots of Multipurpose Glue. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and needed to cut some in half, which I did with my Paper Snips. I have two pairs of Paper Snips – one for cutting anything sticky, like dimensionals and the other pair for paper. If you need a nice sharp pair of small scissors, you won’t be disappointed with our Paper Snips. I’ve had mine for years and they are still as sharp as they were when I bought them.
To complete my card, I added five Metallic Pearls to the front.
For this next card I used Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper but used Magenta Madness and Basic White cardstock to create the “thanks”. I used Metallic Pearls on this card to match the foil swirls in this beautiful paper.
For this last card I used Pattern Party Designer Series Paper. This paper is a host only product which means you can choose it once your order reaches $150. It is a giant package of paper with 48 sheets. Each host only item has a price associated with it. With a $150 order, you would receive $15.00 in Stampin’ Rewards (you earn 10% in rewards up to $300). The “price” of this paper is $18.00 so with a $150 order, you’d pay the overage of $3.00 for this huge pack of paper.
I used Basic Black as the accent color for this card and used five of our Classic Matte Dots to sprinkle around the Designer Series Paper.
