Today I’m sharing a card I made with a new Online Exclusive product, Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper. I also used the Spotlight on Nature Bundle, Silver Foil Sheets, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and Silver & White Sheer Ribbon.


I started with a piece of Basic Black cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I embossed a piece of Basic Black cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I layered the embossed piece to a piece of Silver Foil and then adhered it to the base of the card.


I layered a piece of Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Then, I wrapped a piece of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon around the piece and tied a knot. I then adhered it to the front of the card.


I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Spotlight on Nature, in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I added a Stampin’ Dimensional, one to the top and one to the bottom of the sentiment and adhered it down on the ribbon.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

The card I’m sharing with you today was created using a new Online Exclusive, Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (DSP). I also used Memorable Blooms stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. You can see another version, of this card, here.


I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and embossed another piece using the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.


I cut another piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and layered it with a piece of Lovely Garden DSP. Then, I adhered the piece to the front of the card.


I stamped onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Memorable Blooms stamp set in Fresh Freesia ink. Next, I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies (the third smallest die). Then, I used the next largest size of the Stylish Shapes Dies and cut a circle out of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to the Fresh Freesia cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

Before I share my card with you today, I want my customers to see this! The Annual Catalogs are a big expense for me but I love to send complimentary copies to my current customers (I don’t want to presume if you want the catalog). If you are a current customer of mine, you can click the graphic below to get the form to fill out to request an Annual Catalog or you can click here! Edited to add: I’m sorry many of you had problems opening the form. I think it’s fixed now! I’m so sorry for the confusion!

To create today’s card, I used the Textured Notes Bundle, Pretty Petals stamp set, Pretty Petals Dies (the Pretty Petals products are a Last Chance product and both are on sale), Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder and 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems.


I started with a piece of Petunia Pop cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.



I used Shy Shamrock cardstock to cut a rectangle using the Textured Notes Dies. Then, I cut a smaller rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. Then, I stamped the leaves onto the Basic White rectangle using Shy Shamrock ink and the Pretty Petals stamp set. Next, I stamped the flowers onto Basic White cardstock using Petunia Pop ink and the Pretty Petals stamp set. Then, I cut them out using the Pretty Petals Dies. I used Mini Glue Dots to adhere the flowers to the greenery.


I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Petunia Pop ink using the Textured Notes Stamp Set. Then, I cut the sentiment out using the Textured Notes Dies, 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 three Shy Shamrock Shimmer Gems to the white rectangle.
