I’m sharing a card I made with Violet Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive), Scalloped Blooms Bundle, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder (an Online Exclusive), and Adhesive-Backed Blooms (an Online Exclusive).
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (an Online Exclusive also in the Stampin’ Up! May – August 2026 catalog.). I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and embossed it using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered it to the front of the card, with Multipurpose Glue. (You can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then set it aside. I cut a piece of Violet Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper and then cut it into 1″ strips. Then, I adhered them to the Basic White embossed cardstock that I set aside. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set in Fresh Freesia ink. I cut them out with Scalloped Blooms Dies (the 3rd smallest scalloped die). Then I cut the Fresh Freesia cardstock for the backing behind the sentiment (I used the 4th scalloped smallest die). I glued the sentiment to the Fresh Freesia scalloped die. I added Stampin Dimensionals to Fresh Freesia scalloped die and put on my card.
To complete my card, I added three Adhesive-Backed Blooms, on the Violet Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper. I also added a piece of Basic White to the inside of the card.

I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Peaceful Pine ink and the stamp set, Scalloped Blooms.

I used a lot of new products on today’s card. I used the Scalloped Blooms Bundle, Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper, and 2026-2028 In Color Dots. I also used Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder (it isn’t new). The Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper includes gold details on some sheets. My card today has gold details.
I started off with Barely Blush cardstock (a new In Color) for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the supply list). Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I cut a piece of Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper and added it across the middle of the embossed Basic White cardstock. Then, I adhered the Basic White embossed cardstock to the card front.
Next, I adhered a piece of Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series to a piece of Barely Blush cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the card front. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set in Peaceful Pine ink (another new In Color). I cut the sentiment out using the Scalloped Blooms Dies ( I used the third smallest die). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, on the right side only, and added it to the front of the card.
I added three large 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Barely Blush to the embossed cardstock and I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

I love being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator!
The Stampin’ Up! Starter Kit is for someone who loves purchasing Stampin’ Up! products and also loves getting a 20%+ discount! But, it’s also for the person who would like to start their own business and share their love of paper crafting. You never have to sell or have a party (unless you want to). See below for frequently asked questions about the Starter Kit.
Commonly Asked Questions
- If I purchase the Starter Kit, do I have to sell Stampin’ Up! products to my family and friends? No, you are under NO obligation to sell. You can be your only customer. Of course once your friends see the cute cards you’re making, they’ll want to buy their stamping supplies from you.
- Will I receive a discount on any products I buy? Yes!! This is the best part! You’ll receive at least a 20% discount on all your purchases.
- Do I have to buy/sell a certain amount of product? The quarterly minimum is $300 in product (which is only $240 after your discount!) that can be from personal orders, online orders or ones from family and friends. The quarters are January – March, April – June, July – September, October – December. Once you join, your quarterly minimum begins during your first FULL quarter.
- What if I can’t make the quarterly minimum? You’ll simply be dropped. No one will hassle you. No one will bother you. It truly is risk free to purchase the Starter Kit!
Are there other perks to purchasing the Starter Kit? Yes! Here are just a few:
- The Starter Kit ships FREE!
- Approximately a month before new products are released, you’ll be able to participate in a preorder and purchase brand new products ahead of the public
- Attend Stampin’ Up! events like OnStage
- Personal purchases of $20 are eligible to receive Stampin’ Rewards. Yes, demonstrators can also receive Stampin’ Rewards!
- Complimentary copy of each current catalog from Stampin’ Up! Once the preorder begins, a complimentary copy will be included in your order. If no preorder is made, the catalog will be included in the first order placed during the catalog sales period.
- Free access to the tutorials I give to my customers!
- You wouldn’t have to have your quarterly minimum until July 2026
If you have more questions, please reach out to me sending an email to me (you can send me an email on the sidebar of my blog).

by Tracy | Apr 29, 2026 | Thank You Card
I made my card today using Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive), the Paradise Garden Bundle (an Online Exclusive) and Pearls of Beauty (another Online Exclusive). You can see other variations of this card here and here.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper to the card base (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Then, I adhered another piece of Garden Poetry Designer Series Paper (I used the same design) to a piece of Blackberry Bliss 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 Paradise Garden Stamp Set in Blackberry Bliss ink. Next, I cut it out using the Paradise Garden Dies (this includes an embossing folder and thirteen dies and it comes in the bundle). 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 and added two large Pearls of Beauty at each end of the sentiment in white.
