by Tracy | Feb 23, 2022 | Card Sampler, Layering Circles Dies
Happy Wednesday!
Today’s cards were made using Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper and the Peaceful Moments stamp set.This paper is a different size than we’ve carried before (4″ x 6″) and one side of this double-sided paper has gold accents so I used our Gold Foil Sheets on both cards.
I started with a piece of Polished Pink cardstock and then added a layer of Gold Foil and another piece of Polished Pink that I embossed using the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder.
Then I layered a piece of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper with a piece of Basic White cardstock. I wrapped a piece of white ribbon (from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack) around the two layers and tied a knot. I placed Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the front of the card. The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink and cut out with the Layering Circles Dies. I cut a larger scalloped circle out of Gold Foil, adhered the two together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top and bottom (I didn’t put any in the middle so they weren’t sitting on the ribbon) and placed it on the card. To complete the card, I added three Brushed Brass Butterflies.
I created this next card first and afterwards decided I wanted a piece of Gold Foil for the second layer. I used Blushing Bride and Balmy Blue cardstock and the sentiment was stamped in Balmy Blue. The Blushing Bride cardstock was embossed using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder and I placed five Polished Dots on the front of the card. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Today’s quick and easy card was created using Stampin’ Up! Heart & Home Designer Series Paper, Stitched Rectangles Dies and Hippo & Friends Dies.
I started with a piece of Pale Papaya cardstock for the card base and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies to cut two pieces of Heart & Home Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Garden Green ink and the stamp set, Flowing Flowers and then cut it out using the Hippo & Friends Dies. Next, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and placed it in the middle of the card. To complete my card, I added three Polished Dots to the sentiment piece and adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Imagine all the possibilities using different colors of cardstock and Designer Series Paper!

by Tracy | Feb 21, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
Today’s card is a quick and easy one that was made using Stampin’ Up! Ornate Frames Dies, Ornate Layers Dies and Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that was embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. Usually I add a layer that’s a little bit smaller than the card base but this piece is the same size as the base. Next, I used the Ornate Layers Dies to cut a piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper and then adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Rich Razzleberry ink and the stamp set, Eclectic Garden. I cut it out using the Ornate Frames Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added three Opal Rounds to the front of the card. See? Easy!!

Today I’m sharing several variations of cards I shared last month. Once I have a card design I like, I try to change it up a bit with different colors or Designer Series Paper. Do you do that too?
I’m in love with the New Horizons Designer Series Paper. This paper makes is so easy to create an easy but pretty card! For this first card, I used a different design than my original card which you can see here (you can find the measurements and supplies I used too). The only thing I did differently is that I used Blackberry Bliss cardstock but other than that, all the supplies and measurements are the same.
These next two cards were made using the Sale-a-Bration stamp set, Friendly Hello. This stamp set can be earned free during Sale-a-Bration with a $100 order and it includes a package of Friendly Hello 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. You can see the original card here (you also find a free tutorial) for measurements I used but I’ll include the supplies for these next two cards down below because I changed up what I used.
This first card has a base of Fresh Freesia cardstock and I used Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper. I stamped the bird and sentiment using Memento Ink and then colored the bird and flowers using these Stampin’ Blends: Balmy Blue (Light & Dark), Fresh Freesia (Light & Dark), Crumb Cake (Light), Daffodil Delight (Dark) and Mossy Meadow (Light). I colored the Polished Dots using the Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blend.
This next card has a base of Balmy Blue cardstock. I used Simply Marbleous 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper which is also a Sale-a-Bration gift you can choose with a $50 purchase. I colored the bird using the same Stampin’ Blends as I did for the card above. I colored the Polished Dots using the Dark Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend.
Sale-a-Bration ends on February 28, 2022! Below are all the products you can choose from with every $50 or $100 purchase (before tax/shipping). Click on each product for more information.

by Tracy | Feb 16, 2022 | Hand-Penned Petals Bundle, Sale-a-Bration, Scalloped Contours Dies, Stampin' Blends
Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Hand-Penned Petals Bundle which includes the stamp set, Hand-Penned Petals and the Penned Flowers Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies and Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper. This Designer Series Paper is FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration but only until February 28, 2022.
The inspiration for today’s card came from fellow demonstrator, Brian King. You can see his beautiful card, here.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper that I cut out using the Scalloped Contours Dies. Using these same dies, I cut another rectangle out of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink towards the bottom.
I used the Penned Flowers Dies to cut the flowers out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I added small dots of Multipurpose Glue to the back of the flowers and then placed them on the Basic White rectangle (if you’d like this step to be much easier, I’d recommend using our Adhesive Sheets). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the rectangle and adhered it to the front of the card.
I love our Polished Dots and reach for them over and over again! It’s so easy to color these dots using Stampin’ Blends in a color that will match your card (as of this writing, they are in low inventory status)! I used the Light Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blend to color three of the Polished Dots and then added them to the front of my card.

Before sharing today’s card, I wanted to share this update from Stampin’ Up! about the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends:
The new Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends from the All Together promotion have been a huge hit and we’re happy to see so many people embrace these new marker shades!
Unfortunately, because of global shipping delays, our North America stock of markers may sell out before our restock shipment arrives. This means there will be a period of time where the markers, and collections that include the markers, will be unavailable for purchase.
The good news is that the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends are a permanent addition to our marker collection, and we are optimistic that they will be back in stock by the launch of our 2022–2023 Annual Catalog! If you don’t snag your markers before they sell out this time around, you can purchase them in May.
Click here to see the Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends over at my Stampin’ Up! online store (scroll down to see the individual sets of markers or the entire collection of markers can be purchased)
Today’s fun fold card features several Sale-a-Bration products. Sale-a-Bration is that time of year when you can earn free products with every $50 or $100 you spend (before tax and shipping). If you’ve never heard of Sale-a-Bration, you can read all about it here. I used the Friendly Hello Bundle which includes the Friendly Hello stamp set and Friendly Hello 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. It can be earned with a $100 purchase. I also used the Special Moments stamp set which can also be earned with a $100 purchase.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock which is the base of the card (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). I cut a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock that I folded in half and adhered a piece of Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper to the front. I also adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. Before adhering this piece to the card base, I cut another piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock and scored it to make a flap. I added adhesive to the front side of the flap and adhered it to the back of the Granny Apple Green/Designer Series Paper piece (use a strong adhesive such as Multipurpose Glue). Then I added adhesive to the back and placed it on the Thick Basic White cardstock.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and placed it inside one of the Meadow Moments embossing folders and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I placed it on the front of the flap. Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut two rectangles, one out of Basic White cardstock and a slightly larger one out of Granny Apple Green cardstock. I stamped the sentiment onto the Basic White rectangle using Granny Apple Green ink and the stamp set, Special Moments and then adhered it to the Granny Apple Green rectangle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added two Brushed Brass Butterflies to the sentiment piece.

by Tracy | Feb 11, 2022 | Designer Series Paper, Scalloped Contours Dies
Today’s card features the Flowering Rain Boots Bundle which includes the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set and the Rain Boots Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies. We sure could use some rain here in California. I had hoped that by simply making a card with this set, that the skies would open up, but they didn’t. Maybe I need to actually use the rain boots? Rain aside, it’s a really cute bundle!
I started with a piece of Night of Navy cardstock for the base. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut the large scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I also used these dies to cut a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper (free with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration). I used the dies again to cut another rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink on the smallest scalloped rectangle and then adhered all three pieces together and placed them on the front of the card.
I stamped the pot in Cinnamon Cider ink, the leaves in Garden Green ink and the tulips in Highland Heather ink. I then cut out all three pieces using the Rain Boots Dies. I cut a slit in the pot so I could slide my leaves inside (I learned this from another demo – genius!). I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere the pot and leaves to the front of card and then added the tulips. I originally used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the tulips but they had too much height so I took them off and just used glue.
I added three Polished Dots below the sentiment and then adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. I think the Polished Dots are my new favorite embellishment. I keep reaching for them and they are perfect for coloring using your Stampin’ Blends.

by Tracy | Feb 9, 2022 | Rectangle Stitched Dies, Tasteful Labels Dies
Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Oceanfront stamp set and the On the Horizon Bundle which includes the Horizon Dies and On the Horizon stamp set. All three of these products were not on my initial order but after seeing so many cute cards using them, I had to get them. They coordinate so well together!
I started with a piece of Just Jade cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and a larger one out of Just Jade cardstock. On the Basic White rectangle, I used the Oceanfront stamp set to stamp the sky in Balmy Blue, the water in Coastal Cabana and the sand in Crumb Cake (I stamped the sand twice so I’d have more sand). I stamped the grasses (behind the fence) using Just Jade ink. The birds were stamped in Memento Ink using the stamp set, On the Horizon.
I adhered the Basic White rectangle to the Just Jade rectangle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to my card front. Then I used the Horizon Dies to create the fence using Basic White cardstock and adhered them to the front of the card using Multipurpose Glue. The sentiment I used said “Thanks for everything” but I just wanted “thanks” so I used my Just Jade Stampin’ Write Marker to directly color just those words on the stamp (our markers aren’t sold individually but in a set). I cut the sentiment out using the Tasteful Labels Dies and then adhered it to the front of the card. Want to know why I placed the sentiment where I did? I pressed a little too hard when stamping the birds and one of them looked like a plane so I just covered it up!
I made a bow using our Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack, added a glue dot to the back and placed it on the sentiment piece and then added two Elegant Faceted Gems. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
