by Tracy | Jan 6, 2025 | Thank You Card
Before I share my card with you today, I want to remind you that tomorrow the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog goes live as well as some new Online Exclusives and Sale-a-Bration begins!
Sale-a-Bration is when every $60 or $120 you spend on Stampin’ Up! products (before tax/shipping), you can choose a FREE Sale-a-Bration product!
Now, on to my card! I’ve used the stamp set from the Mini Catalog which goes live tomorrow, With You In Mind and Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper, also in the new Mini Catalog. I also used the Spotlight On Nature Dies, 2-3/8″ Circle Punch, our Gold Foil Sheets and Iridescent Foil Gems.
I started with a piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I layered a piece of Gold Foil Sheet and a piece of Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Very Vanilla cardstock using the stamp set, With You in Mind and Blueberry Bushel ink. I cut the sentiment out using the 2-3/8″ Circle Punch. Then, I cut a circle out of the Spotlight on Nature Dies in Gold Foil. I adhered the sentiment to the front, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Iridescent Foil Gems to the front (I love the little flecks of gold in these gems) and added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside of the card.

I have another card to share with you today using the Hearts of Elegance Bundle. I also used Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper, Countryside Corners Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Gold Foil Sheets and the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins. I also added gold embossing to the sentiment.
I started with Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed Basic White to the front of the card.
I cut two pieces of Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card. Next, I cut a piece of Gold Foil and embossed a smaller piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. I glued the embossed Basic White cardstock to the gold foil and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the Hearts of Elegance Dies to cut a piece of Real Red cardstock to make my heart. I love the details on the heart! Then I adhered the heart to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink using the Hearts of Elegance stamp set. I sprinkled gold embossing powder to the sentiment, shook the excess off and then applied my heat tool to the sentiment. I cut it out using the Countryside Corners Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (but only in the middle) and adhered it to the front of the card. I added two small hearts at each end of the sentiment.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Happy New Year’s Eve!
The card I’m sharing with you today is a sneak peek of the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle #164615, which will be available on January 7, 2025! This bundle includes the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder which also includes twelve dies. I also used the Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper #164607 plus I used our Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins #164970, which are a freebie during Sale-a-Bration when your order reaches $60 (before shipping/tax). Sale-a-Bration also begins on January 7th.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered it to the front of the card base. You can see below how I embossed the Basic White cardstock so that I could place the cut out butterfly to fit directly on my embossed cardstock.
I then used the Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to cut the butterfly out using the dies that come with the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder. I used Basic Black cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies dies to cut the part that goes in the middle of the butterfly, then I adhered it to the butterfly.
I adhered the butterfly to the exact spot on the embossed Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Beautiful Butterflies, in Memento Ink. I added two Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back where they would be on the butterfly and just let it hang off on the other end. I added two, small Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins (free during Sale-a-Bration with a $60 order) on both ends of the sentiment and three larger ones around the butterfly. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Then, I stamped my sentiment on Basic White cardstock in Blackberry Bliss ink using the stamp set, Unbounded Love. I cut it out with the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut a larger circle out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the same dies. I 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.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (this paper is on the Last Chance List and is on sale), Everyday Greetings stamp set, Oxidized Copper Specialty Designer Series Paper, Nested Essentials Dies, Regal Foiled Adhesive-Backed Dots and I added some gold embossing powder to the sentiment.
I started with a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a piece of Regal Winter Designer Series Paper to the front of the card (you can find the measurements I used to make this card below the Supply List).
Next, I added a piece of Regal Winter DSP to the front of a piece of Oxidized Copper Specialty DSP, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink onto Basic White cardstock, sprinkled gold embossing powder over the sentiment and heated it with my Heat Tool (if you’ve never embossed before, you should try it! I have directions below if you want to give it a try). I cut the sentiment 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 three Regal Foiled Adhesive-Backed Dots below the sentiment and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
How to Heat Emboss
Prepare your cardstock by rubbing the Embossing Buddy (an anti-static pouch that can be found in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit) over the surface of the paper as it helps keep away stray particles of embossing powder. Stamp your sentiment or image using a Versamark pad. This is very sticky ink and your embossing powder will stick right to it. Sprinkle embossing powder over the stamped image and then shake off any excess. Before applying heat to your paper, heat the Heat Tool first so your paper won’t warp (about 10 seconds). Direct the heat over your image and watch as your image becomes shiny and beautiful!
Supply List
Below you’ll find all the Stampin’ Up! supplies I used for today’s card. 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.

Then I cut two pieces of Petunia Pop cardstock and two pieces of Bloom Impression Designer Series Paper (a Sale-a-Bration product; free with a $60 purchase; Sale-a-Bration begins on January 7, 2025). I adhered the horizontal piece to the card base but on the square, I put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and then adhered it to the front of the card. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
I stamped the sentiment using the Simply Zinnia stamp set (a Last Chance Product and deeply discounted) in Petunia Pop ink and then cut it out with the Everyday Details Dies (a Last Chance Product and on sale). I love these dies and am really going to miss using them! I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the front of the card.

If one or more products from the suite collection or bundle are in the Last Chance Products category, then the bundle and suite collection will also appear in this category. The bundle or suite will not be orderable if one or more of the items in the bundle or suite collection sell out. Our standard 10% bundle discounts will be available if one or more of the items move to the Last Chance Product category; however, the item in the Last Chance Products category may have a deeper discount.
- There may be times Stampin’ Up! will need to discontinue certain products outside of this process. This can happen due to factors outside our control, such as overseas shipping issues, disruptions to the supply chain for raw materials, or changes to our suppliers.

by Tracy | Dec 9, 2024 | Hello Card

If you need an order to arrive by Christmas, order as early as possible or consider expedited shipping.
My card was created using several products on the Last Chance List! I used Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (on the Last Chance list and discounted). I absolutely LOVE this paper and am sad I won’t be able to use it anymore once it sells out. I also used the Blueberry Bunches stamp set (it was normally $23.00 but it’s been discounted to $9.20! I also used Silver Foil Sheets, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Stylish Shapes Dies and I added some heat embossing to the sentiment using silver embossing powder.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut some Silver Foil. Next, I cut the pieces that would go on the Silver Foil (Regal Winter Designer Series Paper and Blackberry Bliss cardstock) but first I embossed the Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I added the three pieces to the Silver Foil and then adhered the silver foil to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Blueberry Bunches stamp set and Versamark ink. I sprinkled silver embossing powder over the sentiment and then shook off the excess. Then I used my Heat Tool to watch the magic happen! I always get a little excited watching the sentiment change!
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the sentiment out and then used the next bigger size to cut a piece of Silver Foil. I adhered the sentiment to the silver foil, 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 of the card.
