Today’s Friday Tutorial features Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper and the Layering Circles Dies. You can access my free tutorial below the Supply List.
I’ll be honest, this is the first time I’ve used this particular sheet of paper (the gray one) from the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper pack. I tend to like bright colors but I have to say I really like this design combined with the vibrancy of the other paper which happens to be on the opposite side! Normally I would have reached for my Pretty Peacock stamp pad for the sentiment but since it’s sold out, I used Poppy Parade which I think works really well!
When I first purchased the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set, I cut the Happy Birthday stamp in half. For this card, I cut the Thank You stamp in half so it would fit on the circle shape. The two words were really close together and yes, I was a bit scared to cut it but I did and it worked great! Now I can get more mileage out of this stamp set. I used my Paper Snips which are super sharp and a staple in my craft room to cut my stamp! I actually have two pairs of snips, I use one to cut Stampin’ Dimensionals in half or to cut something sticky and then I have a pair that’s just for paper, ribbon or to cut a stamp in half!
This is a fun layout and it really takes no time at all to make a quick card.

Happy Monday! For those who celebrated Easter yesterday, I hope you had an enjoyable day!
Today’s card features two retiring products. The paper on my card is from the Boho Indigo Refill Kit which is retiring and on sale (the sale price isn’t showing in my supply list but it IS on sale)! If you like blues, you’ll love this beautiful paper. The kit includes:
- 48 sheets of 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
- 6 sheets of Very Vanilla 6″ x 6″ embossed paper
- 6 sheets of die cuts
- 40 paper flowers
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added my Designer Series Paper (all the measurements are below the Supply List). The sentiment was stamped onto Basic White cardstock using Misty Moonlight ink and the stamp set, Today’s Tiles. This stamp set is retiring and available while supplies last.
I cut the sentiment out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I cut a larger rectangle using the same dies out of Misty Moonlight cardstock and then layered the two pieces together. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensions to right side and in the center and then adhered it to the left side of the card. I added a drop of Multipurpose Glue to the flower (included in the Boho Indigo Refill Kit) and adhered it to the sentiment piece.

I’m going to take a long, holiday weekend and won’t be posting tomorrow. I’ll be back next Friday with a new tutorial for you! Happy Easter!
To create today’s card, I used three retiring products: Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper (it’s on sale), Today’s Tiles stamp set and our Layering Ovals Dies. These products are available only while supplies last.
I started with a base of Shaded Spruce cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock and Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper. The sentiment was stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink and cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies. A larger oval, using the same dies, was cut out of Shaded Spruce cardstock and layered with the sentiment. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems below the sentiment and added a panel of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Quick and easy!

Today I have two cards to share and they are variations of my Friday Tutorial last week. You can access that tutorial here for all the measurements.
Both cards were made using the So Sentimental Bundle (you always save 10% on bundles) which includes the stamp set, So Sentimental and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The dies ARE returning in the new Annual Catalog but the stamp set is NOT. Both cards were also made using Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper, my very favorite paper in the Mini Catalog and one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders. These embossing folders are small and will fit in our Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
This first card has a base of Gorgeous Grape cardstock and for the piece under the sentiment is Highland Heather cardstock. The sentiment was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink.
Since Seaside Spray cardstock has sold out (I’m really going to miss this color), I went with white on white for this card. I used Night of Navy ink for the sentiment and the piece under the sentiment is cut out of Night of Navy cardstock.
Again, if you’d like the measurements, you can access the tutorial here.
When products are retiring it’s always a good idea to pick up your favorites sooner rather than later because they could sell out. To see all the retiring products, please click here. Please be aware that not all items in our bundles are retiring but the bundle prices are. Some products are being reconfigured and are not retiring such as our Tear & Tape and some of our embossing powders. If you have questions, let me know.
You can access this list of all the retiring items but it’s missing the key below.
* Amount in Stampin’ Rewards; host sets can only be purchased using Stampin’ Rewards from a qualifying party.
** Bundle includes some products that are not retiring; refer to the Retiring List above to see which individual products are retiring.
*** While the items in these bundles are not retiring, they will no longer be available in a bundle after 3 May 2021.
**** This item is not retiring; it is reconfigured in our new catalog.

Today I’d like share some cards I’ve previously shared using some of my favorite retiring dies. I never imagined the Stitched Shapes Dies would show up on the Retiring List but sadly, there are. These dies coordinate with the Layering Circles Dies (NOT retiring), Layering Squares Dies (retiring) and Layering Ovals Dies (retiring). If you have any of the Layering Dies or you are purchasing them now before they retire, you might want to consider the Stitched Shapes Dies before they’re gone!
Please be aware that some of the cards I’m sharing were made using products that are no longer available. My purpose in sharing these cards is to show you the dies I’ve mentioned above. In the Supply List you’ll find all the retiring products from the Annual Catalog used on these cards.
This sentiment for this first card was cut out using the Stitched Shapes Dies (the sentiment is no longer available).
This sentiment on this card is a combination of the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Ovals Dies – both are retiring (the Designer Series paper and embossing folder are no longer available).
This sentiment on this card is also a combination of the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Ovals Dies. The Playful Pets Designer Series Paper is also retiring as well as the Pampered Pets Bundle (both of the products in the bundle are returning in the new catalog but the savings on the bundle is available while supplies last).
This sentiment on this card was cut out with the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Ovals Dies. I also used Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper, also retiring and 40% off. The Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack is also retiring and 60% off. The stamp set, Good Morning Magnolia, is retiring.
These next two cards were made with the Stitched Shapes Dies and Layering Squares Dies (the Designer Series Paper and stamp set are no longer available on the first card).
This card was made using the Layering Squares Dies (the stamp set is no longer available).
These next two cards were made with the Layering Ovals Dies and Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper which is also retiring. The sentiment used on the first card, Borders Abound, is retiring.
This card uses the Layering Ovals Dies. Also retiring on this card: Flowers For Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (40% off), Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (10% off) and Gold Glitter Enamel Dots (all of these retiring products are listed in the Supply List below).
