Today’s card was made using the Pocket Thoughts Bundle which includes the Pocket Thoughts stamp set and the Pocket Thoughts Dies. I also used Thoughtful Designs 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper.
I started with a base of Petunia Pop cardstock. I made the pocket using the Pocket Thoughts Dies and Thoughtful Designs Designer Series Paper. I added Tear & Tape to the pocket edges and then adhered it to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I added the entire piece to the front of the card.
I stamped the cupcake in Memento Black ink and then colored the cupcake using Stampin’ Blends: Dark Lemon Lolly and both Light & Dark Petunia Pop. I cut the cupcake out using one of the circles in the Stylish Shapes Dies and then adhered it to the front of the pocket.
I stamped the sentiment in Petunia Pop ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Pocket Thoughts stamp set. I cut it out using a smaller circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it beside the cupcake.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below) and used a hole punch to punch a hole at the top. Then, I put a piece of Silver & White ribbon through the hole and tied the ribbon off using White Baker’s Twine. After doing that, I trimmed the ends of the ribbon and twine. I adhered the gift card to the Basic White cardstock using Mini Glue Dots.
To complete my card I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card and added three Shimmer Gems around the cupcake and sentiment in Petunia Pop.

Mystery Boxes
What’s a Mystery Box?
Please note: I will temporarily be stopping sending out Mystery Boxes on July 30th.
A Mystery Box is filled with retired products that I’d like to give to a new home. I’ve been a demonstrator for 15 years so you can just imagine how much I have! I have Medium Rate Flat Rate USPS shipping boxes stuffed with retired Stampin’ Up! product.The boxes contain stamps, dies, ribbon, embellishments and more! The boxes are already sealed and every box will be different and a mystery as to what’s inside! The value of each box is well over $200.
All of the products in the Mystery Boxes have retired but some have never been used, some are used and all are “as is”. Some of the stamp sets are wood mount.
You can place an order HERE.
There are two ways to get a Mystery Box
- Place a $125 or more order (before shipping/tax) at my Stampin’ Up! online store using the host code PNYBSJQ2 and I will send a Mystery Box to you as a free gift and I’ll even pay the postage!

If your order is $150 or more, please DO NOT use the host code so you can receive Stampin’ Rewards (free product) directly from Stampin’ Up!.
