Today’s card features Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper and the Scalloped Contours Dies. Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper is one of nine Designer Series Papers on sale right now. Don’t pass up on this paper while it’s on sale. There are so many pretty designs! To see which papers are on sale, click here.
The Scalloped Contours Dies are currently on backorder but as of right now you can still order them and they’ll be sent to you just as soon as they’re in stock. If too many are backordered, Stampin’ Up! turns off the ability to order them until they’re in stock. Stampin’ Up! estimates they wlll be available the week of August 2nd.
SALE 15% OFF until August 2, 2021 – Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper that I cut with the Scalloped Contours Dies. Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut a piece of Vellum cardstock and another smaller piece out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set using Garden Green ink (this stamp set is also included in the Beauty of Friendship Bundle) onto the Basic White rectangle.
I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the Vellum rectangle. I added more Stampin’ Dimensionals (I love my dimensionals) to the back of the vellum and added it to the front of the card. I used my Light Misty Moonlight Blend to color three of our Rhinestone Basic Jewels and added them to the sentiment piece. Definitely a quick and easy card to make!

Free Shipping Day is over and many of you took advantage of this surprise one day promotion! Thank you to everyone who placed an order yesterday!
I’m sorry, but I don’t have a Friday tutorial today. I’ve been at my mom’s, for a month now, to help her convalesce from a hospital stay. She had a setback this week and was hospitalized again on Wednesday afternoon. I stayed with her all day yesterday in the hospital and will be there each day until she comes home which, fingers crossed, should be on Sunday. Needless to say, I can’t quite concentrate on anything but my mom right now.
I didn’t want to just disappear and not let you know why. If you placed an order yesterday, thank you so much, and I will be in touch in the next few days. I hope to be back soon sharing my cards!
by Tracy | Jun 24, 2021 | Die-Cutting, Stampin' Blends
All orders $50 or more are shipping FREE, today ONLY!!!
Today’s card is a variation of the card I posted yesterday. If you missed yesterday’s card, you can see it here. I changed up the color of the cardstock, used a different sentiment and embossed my cardstock using the Stitched Greenery Die.
The base of my card is Thick Basic White cardstock with layers of Pale Papaya cardstock that I embossed using the Stitched Greenery Die. This die is used like any other die but your paper comes out of the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine embossed!
I stamped the flowers onto Basic White cardstock using Memento ink and the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set. They were colored using Pale Papaya and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. I cut them out using the coordinating Penned Flowers Dies. You can purchase this stamp set and dies as a bundle and save 10%.
The scalloped rectangle was cut out of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies and the sentiment was stamped in Memento Ink with the stamp set Beauty of Friendship. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the flowers before adhering them to the scalloped rectangle.
On the back of the scalloped rectangle, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals, on the right side only, before adhering it to the card base.
Supply List
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.

All orders $50 or more TOMORROW will ship FREE!!
Todays card features the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle which includes the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set and the Penned Flowers Dies. I also used the Scalloped Contours Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I embossed two pieces of Poppy Parade cardstock with the Checks & Dots Embossing Folders and then adhered these pieces to the Thick Basic White cardstock. I cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies and then stamped the sentiment in Memento ink in the lower left-hand corner.
The flowers were stamped onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink and the stamp set Hand-Penned Petals (when you use Stampin’ Blends, you always want to stamp your image using Memento Ink). I colored them using the Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Combo Pack and the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Combo Pack. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the flowers and adhered it to the scalloped rectangle. This is a pretty quick and easy card to make!

Yesterday afternoon Stampin’ Up! announced that this Thursday, June 24th will be a FREE SHIPPING Day for all orders $50 or more!!!! It’s time to get those lists started!
Today’s card features the new Basic Borders Dies. The set includes six dies with six different ways to dress up your paper! I made a border at the bottom of my card using these fun dies.
After cutting the border on my Thick Basic White cardstock base, I added a strip of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper to the inside. Then I stamped the sentiment in Coastal Cabana ink using the stamp set, Create with Friends. When cutting the stitched scalloped edge, I opened the card up and placed the straight part of the die on the front of the card, about an inch from the bottom before running it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. If a die has any kind of stitching, I’m sold! The scalloped edge on this die is so sweet and I think the stitching definitely takes it up another notch.
The flowers were made using the Pierced Blooms Dies, Fresh Freesia cardstock and Coastal Cabana cardstock. The bottom flower was glued down to the card base but the top flower has Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back to pop it up. The Pierced Blooms Bundle includes the In Bloom stamp set (I didn’t use this stamp set on my card) and the Pierced Blooms Dies. Both of these products are in the new Annual Catalog but they are not priced as a bundle. This special bundle price will no longer be available after June 30th.
To complete my card, I added three rhinestones below the sentiment. This is definitely a quick and easy card to make!

Enjoy your weekend!
by Tracy | Jun 17, 2021 | Birthday Card, Designer Series Paper, Embossing Folders, Punches
Today’s card features the Sweet Ice Cream Bundle which includes the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. These two products are in the new Annual Catalog but the bundle will only be available until June 30th (bundles always save you 10%).
The inspiration for my card came right from the Annual Catalog on page 33. I made a few changes but if you’re ever stuck for an idea, browse through the catalog! It’s a great resource!
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Next, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock that I partially embossed using one of the Checks & Dots Embossing Folders. In the Supply List, I listed the big Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine but these smaller embossing folders WILL fit in the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
After embossing, I stamped the sentiment in Polished Pink ink using the stamp set, In Bloom and then adhered this piece to the Designer Series Paper. On Basic White cardstock, I stamped the cones in Crumb Cake and Early Espresso ink. The scoops were stamped in Pale Papaya and Polished Pink ink. Both the cones and scoops were cut out using the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. I glued the cones down onto the embossing paper but added Stampin’ Dimensionals to each scoop of ice cream.
To complete the card, I added five Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins.

If you like cute animals, you’re going to love the stamp set, Count on Me, which is what I used for today’s card along with the Animal Print Embossing Folder.
I started with a piece a Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Balmy Blue cardstock. Next, I added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Animal Print Embossing Folder.
I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Circles Dies and cut a larger, scalloped circle out of Balmy Blue cardstock. On the Basic White circle, I stamped the sentiment towards the bottom of the circle using Memento Ink and then stamped the koalas above it, also using Memento Ink. I colored the koalas using my Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends. I adhered the Basic White circle to the Balmy Blue scalloped circle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete the card, I added five Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins. I love the sparkle they add to the card! You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

July – December 2021 Mini Catalog & July – August Sale-a-Bration
There’s been a change in plans for the release of the July – December 2021 Mini Catalog and July – August Sale-a-Bration. When Stampin’ Up! realized they were not likely to receive the majority of product inventory for these two catalogs due to world-wide shipping problems, they made the difficult decision to delay the start of the new catalog and the Sale-a-Bration promotion (yes, this year we will have TWO Sale-a-Brations!). The July-December Mini Catalog will go live on August 3rd and Sale-a-Bration will also begin on this date!
If you’ve made a purchase from me in the last six months, I will be sending you a complimentary copy of both the July – December 2021 Mini Catalog and the July – August Sale-a-Bration brochure.

Today’s card features the Sweet Strawberry Bundle which includes the Sweet Strawberry stamp set and the Strawberry Builder Punch. This bundle was on backorder for months but it’s back in stock and just in time for summer!
I started with a piece of Real Red cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White that I ran through the Stampin’ Cut Emboss Machine using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. Then I added a narrow piece of Real Red cardstock with another layer of Basic White that I also embossed.
Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink in the lower right-hand corner using the Sweet Strawberry stamp set. Using the same dies, I cut a larger rectangle out of Real Red cardstock and layered the two together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used two stamps to stamp the strawberry. The first one is the actual strawberry that I inked up with Real Red ink. The second stamp outlines the strawberry and adds the seeds. I used Garden Green ink to stamp the green part (I googled the actual name of this leafy green part and it’s called the calyx but I’m sticking to “the green part”) of the strawberry and then cut both the strawberry and green part out with the Strawberry Builder Punch. I added several Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the top strawberry.
To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems to the front of the card and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
