I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a strip of Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper to the top and bottom of the card front. I cut a larger strip of Basic White cardstock and stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink using the stamp set, In Bloom, and then glued it to the card front.
I used the Pierced Blooms Dies to cut two flowers out of Highland Heather cardstock, three leaves out of Old Olive cardstock and two centers (of the flowers) out of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I used Multipurpose Glue to attach the centers to each flower and then added a small, white, Elegant Faceted Gem. Mini Glue Dots were used to adhere the leaves to the flowers. I adhered one flower to the sentiment piece and added a Stampin’ Dimensional to the other before placing it on the card.
To complete my card, I added three large, white Elegant Faceted Gems to the sentiment piece.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Are you having any special foods today? My husband, Mark, has been curing a brisket for over a week and then he’ll be cooking it on the smoker later today. I’m not overly fond of corned beef but he’s been talking about making it for a few months now so we’ll be enjoying corned beef, potatoes, carrots, and cabbage tonight!
I have a St. Patrick’s Day Special! All orders $50 or more that use my host code 6BY7CN9F will receive a package of the beautiful Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewelsas my free gift to you! I love all the colors of blues and greens in this package of gems. Unfortunately they’ll only be around until supplies last so I’ve been purchasing them for this special!

The Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is on sale this month as well as select bundles that are compatible with the Mini Machine. Click on any of the products below for more information. Three bundles were brought back just for this promotion: Art Gallery, Celebrate Sunflowers and Garden Wishes.
I started with a piece of Bumblebee cardstock for the card base. Then I added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Hive 3D Embossing Folder. I used the Sunflowers Dies to cut the sunflower out of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper and the detailed part out of Bumblebee cardstock. I cut another detailed part out of Early Espresso cardstock and cut everything off so that just the middle remained. The center was cut using Basic Black cardstock. I cut the leaves out of Pear Pizzazz cardstock and ran them through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I also cut the detailed part of the leaves using Pear Pizzazz cardstock.
Bundle Alert Sale: Although I didn’t use the sentiment in the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle, this bundle is on sale for this month only. It includes the Sunflowers Dies and Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set. This set of dies and stamp set were brought back just for this sale so on April 1st, you will no longer be able to purchase the two together with a discount.
To adhere the two bumblebee sunflower pieces together, I added Multipurpose Glue to the center of the detailed sunflower. Then I glued the Basic Black center to the sunflower and then glued the Early Espresso center to the top. I used Multipurpose glue (very small dots of glue) to add the detailed leaf to the embossed leaf. I added Mini Glue Dots to adhere the leaves to the sunflower. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sunflower and adhered it to the front of the card.
The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink using the stamp set Boughs & Blossoms and then cut out using the Seasonal Labels Dies. I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere it to the sunflower. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and then placed five Holiday Rhinestones on the front of the card.

April Paper Pumpkin Kit
This kit includes:
Change is Beautiful Photopolymer Stamp Set
Melon Mambo Classic Stampin’ Spot®
Printed card bases
Printed envelopes
Printed, shaped die cuts
Iridescent sea glass
Dimensionals
Card size: 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″

Today I have three quick and easy cards to share with you and all three cards were made using the Amazing Thanks Dies (these dies are compatible with the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine).
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Just Jade cardstock and Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper. Then I used the Amazing Thanks Dies to cut “thanks” out of Just Jade cardstock and Gold Foil. I layered the pieces together using small dots of Multipurpose Glue. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and needed to cut some in half, which I did with my Paper Snips. I have two pairs of Paper Snips– one for cutting anything sticky, like dimensionals and the other pair for paper. If you need a nice sharp pair of small scissors, you won’t be disappointed with our Paper Snips. I’ve had mine for years and they are still as sharp as they were when I bought them.
To complete my card, I added five Metallic Pearls to the front.
For this next card I used Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper but used Magenta Madness and Basic White cardstock to create the “thanks”. I used Metallic Pearls on this card to match the foil swirls in this beautiful paper.
For this last card I used Pattern Party Designer Series Paper. This paper is a host only product which means you can choose it once your order reaches $150. It is a giant package of paper with 48 sheets. Each host only item has a price associated with it. With a $150 order, you would receive $15.00 in Stampin’ Rewards (you earn 10% in rewards up to $300). The “price” of this paper is $18.00 so with a $150 order, you’d pay the overage of $3.00 for this huge pack of paper.
I used Basic Black as the accent color for this card and used five of our Classic Matte Dots to sprinkle around the Designer Series Paper.

Paper Pumpkin
Today’s the last day to sign up for the March Paper Pumpkin Kit. This month you’ll receive TWO sets of stamps!
This month’s kit contains enough elements to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs—and 9 coordinating envelopes. This all-inclusive kit includes printed card bases, die-cut paper pieces, embellishments, adhesive, and more!
The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit includes a Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin’ Spot!
This kit’s stamp set is perfect for any occasion. With sentiments that say “thanks”, “hello”, “thinking of you,” and so many more, you’ll be able to use this stamp set year round.
And if you thought one stamp set was great just wait—this month’s kit comes with a BONUS stamp set for FREE! That’s two stamp sets in one kit! It’s our way of saying THANK YOU to you our Paper Pumpkin subscribers.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for my card base. I layered a piece of Just Jade cardstock with a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Macrame 3D Embossing Folder. Before adhering it to the card base, I wrapped Just Jade ribbon (included in the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack) around the two pieces and tied a knot. On a side note, I LOVE the White ribbon in the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack. It’s wider than the other white ribbon in the catalog and it’s easy to tie in a knot and looks so pretty on a card. The Just Jade ribbon is also easy to tie (if it isn’t easy to tie, then I usually don’t use it).
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the piece behind the flower (“bubbles”) using the All Squared Away stamp set in Just Jade ink and then trimmed it leaving a border around the edges. I used the Floral Squares Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then adhered it to the piece I just trimmed. Then both of those pieces were layered onto a piece of Just Jade cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Just Jade ink using the stamp set Boughs & Blossoms and then cut it out using a die from the Meadows Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card. If you would like to make today’s card, you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List.
Just Jade is one of five colors that will be retiring this year (sigh). If you need cardstock, ink refills, Stampin’ Blends, or an ink pad for any of these colors, I’d recommend purchasing them now. Once the retiring list is out (later this month) the products in all the retiring colors usually sell out quickly. To see the products for each color, click on each color below.

Pattern Party Card Kits – Tomorrow is the Last Day
Place a minimum $40 order AND use my special host code EGBT4VJY by March 6th (tomorrow) to receive at least three of my Pattern Party Card Kits. Each kit includes all the paper you’ll need to complete a beautiful card (the paper will be cut, scored, embossed and die cut for you). You’ll need to supply your own stamps, ink and adhesive.

If your order is $150 or more, please do not use the host code so you can receive Stampin’ Rewards directly from Stampin’ Up!. I will automatically send the card kits to you.
I used Pattern Party Designer Series Paper to create all six cards. Each card is the same design but I’ve used different cardstock and ink for all six cards (you can see two of the cards in the graphic above).
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White Cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders. These embossing folders are smaller (compatible with the Mini Cut & Emboss Machine) and the entire piece of paper will not be completely embossed but I covered the part that wasn’t embossed with a piece of You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper.
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of a piece of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
Using the Sweet as a Peach stamp set, I stamped the leaves in Pear Pizzazz ink and the flowers in Balmy Blue and Night of Navy ink onto Basic White cardstock and then cut them out using the Peach Dies. I glued the leaves down and then added Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to three flowers and placed them on the leaves. I added glue to the top flower and tucked it underneath (when I make this card again, I’m going to try adding Dimensionals to the leaves and then glue the flowers). To complete the card, I added three Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels.

Today I’m sharing a past Paper Pumpkin kit that’s currently on the Clearance Rack (not at a clearance price) BUT it’s only available for purchase to current Paper Pumpkin customers. About ten days ago I was looking around the Stampin’ Up! site and checked out the Clearance Rack. When I saw the Expressions in Color Paper Pumpkin Kit, I remembered that I never made my kit (it’s from June 2021 – yikes!) so I pulled it out and created the cards.
Here’s a picture of everything you’ll receive.
I didn’t make my cards exactly as shown and used a Gorgeous Grape ink pad for one of the cards. You can see my versions below (the first one is my very favorite).
Inside each Paper Pumpkin box there are instructions in the form of pictures but Stampin’ Up! also provides a video each month. Below you’ll find the video for the Expressions in Color Paper Pumpkin Past Kit.
