by Tracy | Apr 21, 2025 | Hello Card
The card I’m sharing with you today was made with the following products: Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and Starburst Sequins.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper to the front of the card. Next, I used a piece of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies. I ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Fresh Freesia ink using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set. When I cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies, I had the sentiment over to very right because I slipped the excess under the butterfly. I then set the sentiment aside.
I cut the solid butterfly out of Fresh Freesia cardstock and the detailed one out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies (these dies come with Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder). I adhered the detailed butterfly to the solid butterfly running a small amount of glue down the middle of the detailed butterfly. I cut an antenna for the butterfly out of Basic White cardstock and adhered the antenna to the body of the butterfly using Multipurpose Glue.
I decided where I wanted the sentiment to go and adhered it to the card. Then, I put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the butterfly and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and three small Starburst Sequins to the front of the card.

Happy Valentine’s Day!!
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies and Two-Tone Sparkle Gems. The Beautiful Butterflies Bundle is currently not available but Stampin’ Up! is estimating it should be back in stock the week of February 24, 2025.
I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper to the front of the card.
I cut out a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Perennial Postage Dies and then ran it through the Beautiful Butterfly Hybrid Embossing Folder. I adhered this piece to the front of the card.
I cut a butterfly out of Balmy Blue cardstock using the dies that comes with the Hybrid Embossing Folder. Then, I cut another detailed butterfly out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper. I glued the detailed butterfly to the solid butterfly with a strip of glue down the center of the detailed butterfly. Next, I cut the middle part of the butterfly out of Basic White cardstock and then glued it to the detailed butterfly. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and then set it aside.
I stamped my sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Balmy Blue ink and the stamp set, Beautiful Butterflies. I cut it out using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies. When I cut it out I made sure the die was over to the right. Then, I decided where the butterfly and the sentiment would go. I adhered the sentiment to the card first and then placed the butterfly on the front.
To complete my card, I added three Two-Toned Sparkle Gems to the card front. This was the first time I had used these gems and they are so pretty on the card! They coordinate with Balmy Blue and Bubble Bath! Then, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

by Tracy | Jan 15, 2025 | Thank You Card
I’m sharing a fun fold card with you today using Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Memorable Blooms stamp set, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Starstruck Embossing Folder (free during Sale-a-Bration with a $60 order).
I started with a piece of Berry Burst cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and scored it in two places (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I then folded up the Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the Berry Burst cardstock base using Tear & Tape Adhesive. You can also use Stampin’ Seal+.
I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Sale-a-Bration Embossing Folder, Starstruck (free with a $60 order during Sale-a-bration) and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered it to the right panel. I cut a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the left panel.
Before adhering the Basic White cardstock to the inside I stamped the sentiment in Berry Burst ink using the stamp set, Memorable Blooms.
I stamped the sentiment for the front in Berry Burst ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set Memorable Blooms and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut another, larger circle out of Berry Burst cardstock using the next larger shape in the Stylish Shapes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the Berry Burst cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back but only on the right and adhered it to the left flap.
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.

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.

I also used the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle #164608 which includes the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder (which includes twelve dies).
