Today’s card was made with several retiring products:
All retiring products are available while supplies last!
I started with a piece a Thick Basic White cardstock and then cut two pieces of Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements below the Supply List) and a piece of Night of Navy cardstock that I ran through the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered all three pieces to the card front.
Next, I cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the stamp set, Dragonfly Garden. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
Using Memento Ink, I stamped a dragonfly from the stamp set, Dragonfly Garden onto Basic White cardstock. I colored it using our Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2 (don’t let the words watercolor scare you, I didn’t use any water). I colored the wings with the Night of Navy pencil and then used Garden Green around the edges. Then, I used a Blender Pen to blend the colors together. It’s amazing how nice it looks when you use the Blender Pen. I punched it out using the Dragonflies Punch, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, and adhered it to the rectangle.
To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones to the front. As I mentioned earlier, these rhinestones are retiring. I love these rhinestones and they aren’t just for the holidays! I love that there’s a variety of colors to use. Grab them while you can!
Since you’ve read this far, I want to share a funny moment . When I went to photograph today’s card, I realized that I made a mistake and it’s one that I always try to check before adhering my pieces to the card front! Sheesh! I cut the panel off and put it on another base, correctly!! Ha, ha!! Has this happened to you before? If it hasn’t, just wait!

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper and the Tailor Made Tags Dies.
I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and then added a piece of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper (this paper comes in a new size: 4″ x 6″) to the card base. Then I adhered another Abstract Beauty design onto a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock. I wrapped a piece of Denim 3/8″ Ribbon around this piece, then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card base.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Lovely You and Night of Navy ink. Then I cut it out using the Tailor Made Tags Dies. I added Mini Glue Dots to the back and slipped it under the ribbon. I also added a Mini Glue Dot to the back of the ribbon, in the middle, so it would stay flat against the tag. To complete the card, I added three Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels.

Today’s card was made using Symbols of Fortune 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, the Inspired Thoughts stamp set, Meadow Dies and Soft Succulent Satin Shimmer Ribbon.
I started with a piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock for my card base. Then I adhered a piece of Symbols of Fortune Designer Series Paper to a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock. Before adhering this piece to the card base, I wrapped a piece of Soft Succulent 1/2″ Satin Shimmer Ribbon (this ribbon is beautiful!!) around the layers and tied a knot.
I stamped the sentiment in Evening Evergreen ink using the stamp set Inspired Thoughts and then cut it out with the Meadow Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

I started with a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock for the base of my card. I then cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I stamped the tree, flowers, tree trunk, bunny and sentiment directly onto the scalloped rectangle using Memento Ink and the stamp set, Friends of the Forest. On another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the deer and used my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends to color it in. I cut it out using the Deer Builder Punch.
Here are the Stampin’ Blends I used to color everything:
- Deer – Crumb Cake (Dark and Light)
- Tree: Dark Crumb Cake and Light Granny Apple Green

- Flowers: Daffodil Delight (Dark) and Flirty Flamingo (Dark)
- Mushrooms: Crumb Cake (Light) & Pool Party (Light)

After coloring everything, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the scalloped rectangle and placed it on the card base. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the deer before placing it on the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Today’s card was a fun one to make! I used the Brilliant Rainbow Dies, the new Cloud Punch and the stamp set, Friends of the Forest. I’ll be honest, I bought these dies several months ago and was a bit intimidated to use them. I don’t know why I waited so long because my card was really easy to make!
I started with a base of Pacific Point cardstock. Then I used the large rainbow die to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock. I added LOTS of Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card base. I used the same die to cut the colors of the rainbow using scraps that I had since I only needed one piece of the rainbow for each color. I then glued each color of the rainbow into each section. Easy peasy!
I used the Cloud Punch to cut two clouds out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment on one of the clouds in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Friends of the Forest. I glued the other cloud to the bottom of the rainbow and added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the one with the sentiment and placed it beside the other cloud.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added three Iridescent Rhinestones to the front of the card.
Bundle Alert: The Rainbow of Happiness Bundle includes the Brilliant Rainbow Dies and the Rainbow of Happiness stamp set.
