by Tracy | Mar 4, 2022 | Bundle, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features the Sweet as Peach Bundle (on sale the month of March) and the Scalloped Contours Dies. The Sweet as a Peach Bundle (compatible with the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine and on sale this month) includes the Sweet as a Peach stamp set and the Peach Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White Cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders. These embossing folders are smaller (compatible with the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine) and the entire piece of paper will not be completely embossed but I covered the part that wasn’t embossed with a piece of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper.
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of a piece of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
Using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set, I stamped the leaves in Pear Pizzazz ink and the flowers in Balmy Blue and Night of Navy ink onto Basic White cardstock and then cut them out using the Peach Dies. I glued the leaves down and then added Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to three flowers and placed them on the leaves. I added glue to the top flower and tucked it underneath (when I make this card again, I’m going to try adding Dimensionals to the leaves and then glue the flowers). To complete the card, I added three Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels.

by Tracy | Feb 16, 2022 | Hand-Penned Petals Bundle, Sale-a-Bration, Scalloped Contours Dies, Stampin' Blends
Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Hand-Penned Petals Bundle which includes the stamp set, Hand-Penned Petals and the Penned Flowers Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies and Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper. This Designer Series Paper is FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration but only until February 28, 2022.
The inspiration for today’s card came from fellow demonstrator, Brian King. You can see his beautiful card, here.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper that I cut out using the Scalloped Contours Dies. Using these same dies, I cut another rectangle out of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink towards the bottom.
I used the Penned Flowers Dies to cut the flowers out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I added small dots of Multipurpose Glue to the back of the flowers and then placed them on the Basic White rectangle (if you’d like this step to be much easier, I’d recommend using our Adhesive Sheets). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the rectangle and adhered it to the front of the card.
I love our Polished Dots and reach for them over and over again! It’s so easy to color these dots using Stampin’ Blends in a color that will match your card (as of this writing, they are in low inventory status)! I used the Light Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blend to color three of the Polished Dots and then added them to the front of my card.

by Tracy | Feb 11, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle which includes the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set and the Rain Boots Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies. We sure could use some rain here in California. I had hoped that by simply making a card with this set, that the skies would open up, but they didn’t. Maybe I need to actually use the rain boots? Rain aside, it’s a really cute bundle!
I started with a piece of Night of Navy cardstock for the base. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut the large scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I also used these dies to cut a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper (free with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration). I used the dies again to cut another rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink on the smallest scalloped rectangle and then adhered all three pieces together and placed them on the front of the card.
I stamped the pot in Cinnamon Cider ink, the leaves in Garden Green ink and the tulips in Highland Heather ink. I then cut out all three pieces using the Rain Boots Dies. I cut a slit in the pot so I could slide my leaves inside (I learned this from another demo – genius!). I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere the pot and leaves to the front of card and then added the tulips. I originally used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the tulips but they had too much height so I took them off and just used glue.
I added three Polished Dots below the sentiment and then adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. I think the Polished Dots are my new favorite embellishment. I keep reaching for them and they are perfect for coloring using your Stampin’ Blends.

by Tracy | Sep 16, 2021 | Card Sampler, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Rectangle Stitched Dies, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper (free during Sale-a-Bration with a $50 order), the stamp set, Heartfelt Wishes and the Scalloped Contours Dies.
I started with a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut two scalloped rectangles using Basic White cardstock and Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper. I layered those two pieces together and then wrapped a piece of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon around them and tied a knot. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it in the center of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Heartfelt Wishes. This is a new stamp set in the Mini Catalog. It has a lot of Christmas greetings but also includes a few sentiments for other occasions as well. I cut the sentiment out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
Bundle Alert: The Scalloped Contours Dies can be purchased individually but can also be purchased in the Color & Contour Bundle that also includes the Color & Contour Stamp Set. Bundles always save you 10%.

by Tracy | Sep 8, 2021 | Die-Cutting, Scalloped Contours Dies, Stampin' Blends
Today’s card features the Sweets & Treats stamp set and the Scalloped Contours Dies. These dies have been on backorder for several months but are available again as well as the Color & Contour Bundle which includes the Color & Contour stamp set and the Scalloped Contours Dies.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Real Red cardstock along with a piece of Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock. Onto the rectangle, I used Memento ink to stamp the pie stand using the stamp set, Sweets & Treats. Then I stamped the pie cover. I colored the pie stand using Real Red Stampin’ Blends.
On another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the pie and heart. I colored the pie using Crumb Cake & Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blends (my husband loves blueberry pie so I made my pie, blueberry). I used Crumb Cake & Real Red Stampin’ Blends to color the heart. I fussy cut each one out and then adhered them to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. If I make the card again, I won’t use Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the pie but use regular adhesive instead.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Sweets & Treats. It was cut out using the Seasonal Labels Dies (a new set of dies in the Mini Catalog). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. To complete the card, I added two Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestones, to each end of the sentiment.
