Today’s card was made using the Stampin’ Up! stamp set, Beautifully Happy. You can earn this stamp set FREE with a $100 purchase during Sale-a-Bration 2023 (supplies are limited and may run out before Sale-a-Bration is over on February 28, 2023). I also used Regency Park Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I added strips of Regency Park Designer Series Paper using two different designs and adhered them to the card base.
Next, I stamped the flowers and leaves in the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Memento Ink and then colored them using these Stampin’ Blends:
- Balmy Blue Light and Dark
- Granny Apple Green Light and Dark
- Daffodil Delight Dark
After I colored the flowers and leaves I cut them out using the Stylish Shapes Dies (these dies have been out of stock but are estimated to be in the week of February 13, 2023). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it in the center of the card.
I then stamped the sentiment in Memento ink and cut it out with Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the lower right hand corner. To complete my card, I added three Glossy Dots which add a lot of sparkle to the card!

To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card and added five Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins to the the front. These sequins come in Balmy Blue, pink and gold (it’s a little hard to see the true colors from the image below).

Today’s fun fold card was created using Stampin’ Up! Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper, Charming Sentiments stamp set and one of the Elegant Eucalyptus 3D Embossing Folders. This paper is only available for a limited time and can be purchased while supplies last.
I started with a piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock for the base of my card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I cut a piece off the end but saved it to use on the front of the card. Next, I cut a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and ran it through one of the Elegant Eucalyptus 3D Embossing Folders and adhered it to the top of the card. I used the piece of Evening Evergreen I cut off the base of the card and layered it with a piece of Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, just at the top, and adhered it to the embossed Balmy Blue cardstock.
I cut another piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered it to the inside of the card. Then I cut a piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock and layered it with a piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the inside of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Balmy Blue ink using the Charming Sentiments stamp set and then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Using the Layering Circles Dies, I cut a scalloped circle out of Evening Evergreen cardstock and adhered the sentiment to the front. Then, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock in the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder, ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and then adhered it to the front of the card. I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and a piece of Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper, layered them together and adhered them to the front of the card.

I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Charming Sentiments and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies, I added a small amount of adhesive on the upper half of the sentiment and then adhered it to the bottom of the stitched squares.
To complete the card, I added three 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to the front of the card. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.
