The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Happy Hibiscus Bundle, Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (FREE when you place a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration), and 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems.
I started with a piece of Petunia Pop cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder and then adhered the smaller one to the top of the card and the larger one to the inside of the card.
I added Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper to the front of the Petunia Pop cardstock (that you saved from the card base). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top of the Petunia Pop/DSP piece and adhered it to the front flap.
I cut another piece of Petunia Pop cardstock and adhered Basic White cardstock to the front and carefully added it to the inside so you can’t see it when the front flap is down (you can see a picture of this further down in the blog post).
I stamped the sentiment onto a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock using the Happy Hibiscus stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink. I cut it out using the “Happy Hibiscus Dies” (these dies come with the Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front flap. Then, I added three 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems to the front.

by Tracy | Feb 10, 2025 | Thank You Card
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using Stampin’ Up! Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper, the stamp set, With You in Mind, our 2-3/8″ Circle Punch and Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems.
I started with a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) to the front of the card. This DSP comes with pre-punched pieces, like the wreath I used on my card. I punched the wreath out and then set it aside.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the With You in Mind stamp set and Pretty Peacock ink. Then, I punched it out with the 2-3/8″ Circle Punch. Then, I used Scotch tape and taped the sentiment to the back of the wreath. Next, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the wreath and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three large Pretty Peacock gems to the front of the card and I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

Paper Pumpkin Kit – Hello Spring
An additional coordinating add-on is available but only for Paper Pumpkin subscribers. Click the image below for more information.
Thanks for stopping by today!
by Tracy | Jan 23, 2025 | Thank You Card
I’ve made a few more cards using Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration). You can see another card I made with this same design using Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, here!
For today’s card, I also used the Spotlight on Nature Bundle which includes the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Spotlight on Nature stamp set.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and scored it in two places (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I cut two pieces of Bloom Impressions DSP and attached them to the front flaps.
I then folded up the Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the Blackberry Bliss cardstock base using Tear & Tape Adhesive (that’s what I like to use) but you can also use Stampin’ Seal+.
I stamped the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Spotlight on Nature and cut it out using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I cut another, larger circle out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the next larger shape in the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the Blackberry Bliss circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back but only on the right and adhered it to the left flap.
Here’s two more variations. With this first one I used Blackberry Bliss cardstock and Blackberry Bliss ink. With both of them I used the Starstruck Embossing Folder (FREE with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration).
With this next one I used Bloom Impressions DSP and Melon Mambo cardstock and Melon Mambo ink.

Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s cards. If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store.

Before sharing my card with you today, I want to take some time to explain Sale-a-Bration.
With every $60 or $120 order you spend on Stampin’ Up! products (before tax/shipping), you get to choose a FREE Sale-a-Bration product. For instance, if your order before tax and shipping is $60, you can choose one item in the $60 category. If your order is $120 before tax and shipping, you can choose two products in the $60 category or one in the $120 category. There’s no limit to how many free products you can earn! If you click the graphic above, it will take you to a page where you can see the Sale-a-Bration products. Scroll down and click the $60 category and the $120 category. You’ll be able to choose your free Sale-a-Bration product(s) at check out.
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Memorable Blooms Bundle, Toadstool Gardens Designer Series Paper (it’s FREE with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration), Nested Essentials Dies, and Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (this is also FREE with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration).
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then I took a piece of Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) and put the octagon on it and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. There will be an inner piece when you run the octagon through your die cutting machine. We won’t use this piece for today’s card. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I had to cut some dimensionals along the inner edge of the Stampin’ Dimensionals to fit along the sides. I hope that makes sense.
I cut a piece of Toadstool Gardens Designer Series Paper using the octagon. You will need the inner piece for the card today. I added adhesive to the back and then placed it in the octagon shape.
I stamped the flowers on Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink and the stamp set, Memorable Blooms. I colored it with these Stampin’ Blends: Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lime Twist. I then cut it out using the Memorable Blooms Dies.
I used the Memorable Blooms Dies to cut a piece of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock to cut the leaves. I then added the leaves to the front using Mini Glue Dots. I then added Mini Glue Dots to the flowers and adhered them to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Fresh Freesia ink and the stamp set, Memorable Blooms. I cut it out using the Nested Essentials 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 Purple Adhesive-Backed Gems to the Toadstool Gardens DSP.

I’m sharing a fun fold card with you today using Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Memorable Blooms stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Starstruck Embossing Folder (free during Sale-a-Bration with a $60 order).
I started with a piece of Berry Burst cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and scored it in two places (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I then folded up the Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the Berry Burst cardstock base using Tear & Tape Adhesive. You can also use Stampin’ Seal+.
I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Sale-a-Bration Embossing Folder, Starstruck (free with a $60 order during Sale-a-bration) and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered it to the right panel. I cut a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the left panel.
Before adhering the Basic White cardstock to the inside I stamped the sentiment in Berry Burst ink using the stamp set, Memorable Blooms.
I stamped the sentiment for the front in Berry Burst ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Memorable Blooms and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut another, larger circle out of Berry Burst cardstock using the next larger shape in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the Berry Burst cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back but only on the right and adhered it to the left flap.
