The card I’m sharing today uses the Free as a Bird Bundle. This bundle includes the stamp set, Free as a Bird, and the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. You’ll always save 10% on a bundle so if you’re thinking about purchasing both of these items, be sure to use item #151123.
All of the products I’ve used can be found in the supply list towards the end of the post. Simply click any product and you’ll be taken to that product in my Stampin’ Up! online store.
I used our 2019-2021 In Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) in Pretty Peacock along with Pretty Peacock, Night of Navy and Whisper White cardstock. Before I glued the DSP onto the Whisper White, I embossed it using the Brick & Mortar embossing folder and my die-cutting machine. I wrapped our Pretty Peacock 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon around the panel before gluing it to the Pretty Peacock cardstock.
The sentiment was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink and cut out with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Using the same dies, a larger one was cut out of Night of Navy cardstock. The two pieces were adhered together using Snail but then Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back of the Night of Navy shape.
I added three Noble Peacock Rhinestones in Pretty Peacock to complete the card.

I stamped the sentiment three different times – twice in Terracotta Tile and once in Mint Macaron. The first one was stamped in Terracotta Tile and cut out with the larger die pictured below. Then I stamped it again in Mint Macaron and cut just the center using the smaller die. Then I stamped it again in Terracotta Tile and just cut out “thank you” using my Paper Snips. I used Snail to adhere them all together but added Stampin Dimensionals to the back of the larger piece and adhered it to a 2″ circle of Terracotta Tile. I also added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Terracotta Tile circle.

One of my first purchases from the new Annual Catalog was the Doily Wishes Dies. I immediately loved the intricate dies but decided I didn’t want the Wish For It Allstamp set. Well, the other day I purchased the stamp set and I’m disappointed because I lost out on saving 10%. Had I purchased the two products together using the special bundle item number, I would have saved 10%! I hate when that happens!
My card today uses the Doily Wishes Dies and the stamp set, Here’s a Card. I needed a small greeting, which is why I didn’t use the Wish For It All stamp set. The sentiment was stamped in Highland Heather and was cut out using the 1″ Circle Punch. I cut a scalloped oval using Pool Party cardstock and the 1-1/8″ Scallop Circle Punch for the sentiment to sit on. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back.
A piece of 6″ x 6″ Subtles Designer Series Paper in Pool Party sits on my base of Pool Party cardstock (Thick Whisper White cardstock would also work).
The piece of Whisper White cardstock is embossed using the Eyelet Lace Embossing Folder. I finished the card by adding our Basic Adhesive Backed Sequins.
This card will be my free PDF Tutorial on Tuesday, which will include all the measurements, so check back next week. Thanks for stopping by today!

I’m in love with our Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper. This paper is so gorgeous that you really don’t need to add much else to your card. I used two different designs in this pack of paper for the two layers of my card. They coordinate so well together!
The base of the card is Blueberry Bushel. The first layer of Designer Series Paper was adhered with Snail but the top layer has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back, as does the sentiment. Adding Dimensionals to a layer really changes the look of a card.
The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using Blueberry Bushel ink and the stamp set, Parcels & Petals. It was cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend! Last week we went on a mini vacation where we were just a block away from the beach. Several mornings we got up and walked down to the beach to watch the waves and the surfers. I wish I could wake up to that every single morning. It’s so calming and beautiful. While we were away, my husband, Mark, and I also celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary. It was really nice getting away for a few days.
When we got home from our vacation, I created today’s card which uses an oldie but goodie die, Springtime Impressions, which includes a beautiful die-cut butterfly.
I used the stamp set Parcels & Petalsfor the sentiment and inked it up with Blackberry Bliss. I cut it out with the Stitched Shapes Dies and then cut a Blackberry Bliss scalloped oval using the Layering Ovals Dies. The Stitched Shapes Dies are very versatile because they coordinate with the Layering Circles Dies, Layering Squares Dies and Layering Ovals Dies.
The smaller layer of cardstock and Designer Series Paper was popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals as well as the Blackberry Bliss scalloped oval. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals were used on the back of the butterfly to give it dimension too!
Bundle Alert

It’s the beginning of a brand new month which means it’s time for the Glitter Queens Blog Hop! This month it’s all about Shaker Cards!
I started with a card base of Thick Whisper White cardstock. I like to use this thick paper any time my base is white because it’s sturdier and with the extra weight of a shaker card, it’s a good choice. The next layer is a piece of Calypso Coral that was placed inside the Mosaic 3D embossing folder and run through a die-cutting machine.
To create the window, I used the Layering Squares Dies, one inside the other as indicated in the image below. You’ll need a clear Window Sheetto keep all the sequins inside so I used a piece that measured 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″. To attach the Window Sheet, I added Multipurpose Liquid Glue all around the edges of the rectangle. Then I added our Foam Adhesive Stripson each side of the rectangle.
Once I figured out where I wanted my Iridescent Sequins to go, I shook them out onto the card base – I wish I had added a little more than I did. Next, I peeled off the backing on the rectangle and attached the window to the card.
The sentiment was stamped in Calypso Coral ink using the stamp set Parcels & Petals and cut out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies. The flowers were stamped in Memento Ink onto Whisper White cardstock using the stamp set, Tea Together. They were colored in using Stampin’ Blends: Calypso Coral Dark and Light, Granny Apple Green Dark and Light and Pineapple Punch Light. The flowers were cut out using the Tea Time Dies. I got these dies when they were a Sale-a-bration free gift. I’m so glad they can now be purchased in the Annual Catalog!
The smaller flower was attached to the frame of the window using Snail and the larger one has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back. A shaker card may look like it’s really hard to make but it isn’t! I hope you’ll give it a try!

I also used the stamp set Tasteful Textures. Don’t you just love the sentiment?
One of the coordinating colors in the Mosaic Mood Designer Series Paper is Terracotta Tile so I used cardstock in that color and ink, also in that color, for the sentiment.
The Terracotta Tile butterfly was created using the Butterfly Beauty Dies and a die-cutting machine.

It’s very easy to make the beautiful lace background on my card today using the Stitched Lace Dies and a die-cutting machine.
Once the background was cut out, I used Multipurpose Glue to add dots of glue all around the back. I’ll be honest, I was a little intimidated at first wondering how I would adhere it the cardstock but it worked out well. Lots of little dots of glue equals a card front that isn’t going to fall off!
The base of the card is Blueberry Bushel, one of the 2018-2020 In Colors. I used that color again for the sentiment and the piece the sentiment sits on, both of which were cut out using the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Three Noble Peacock Rhinestones in Blueberry Bushel were the finishing touches!
