by Tracy | Mar 12, 2025 | Stampin' Blends
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Memorable Blooms Bundle, Perennial Postage Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and Low Profile Dots.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then, I cut two pieces of Poppy Parade cardstock and ran them both through the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered the bigger one to the front of the card and the smaller piece to the “inside” of the card.
I stamped the flowers onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Memorable Blooms stamp set in Memento Ink. I colored the flowers and leaves using Poppy Parade & Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. Then, I cut the flowers out using the Memorable Blooms Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and set it aside.
I used Basic White cardstock to cut one of the Perennial Postage Dies (the second largest one). Next, I added the sentiment down towards the bottom of the rectangle in Memento Ink using the Memorable Blooms Stamp Set. Then, I added Tear & Tape (or a strong adhesive) to the back (not the part that will hang over) and adhered it to the right side of the card. Next, I added the flowers to the front and then added three Low Profile Dots.

I have another card to share with you today using the Hearts of Elegance Bundle. I also used Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper, Countryside Corners Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Gold Foil Sheets and the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins. I also added gold embossing to the sentiment.
I started with Real Red cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed Basic White to the front of the card.
I cut two pieces of Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card. Next, I cut a piece of Gold Foil and embossed a smaller piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. I glued the embossed Basic White cardstock to the gold foil and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the Hearts of Elegance Dies to cut a piece of Real Red cardstock to make my heart. I love the details on the heart! Then I adhered the heart to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink using the Hearts of Elegance stamp set. I sprinkled gold embossing powder to the sentiment, shook the excess off and then applied my heat tool to the sentiment. I cut it out using the Countryside Corners Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (but only in the middle) and adhered it to the front of the card. I added two small hearts at each end of the sentiment.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

My card was created using several products on the Last Chance List! I used Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (on the Last Chance list and discounted). I absolutely LOVE this paper and am sad I won’t be able to use it anymore once it sells out. I also used the Blueberry Bunches stamp set (it was normally $23.00 but it’s been discounted to $9.20! I also used Silver Foil Sheets, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder, Stylish Shapes Dies and I added some heat embossing to the sentiment using silver embossing powder.
I started with a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut some Silver Foil. Next, I cut the pieces that would go on the Silver Foil (Regal Winter Designer Series Paper and Blackberry Bliss cardstock) but first I embossed the Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I added the three pieces to the Silver Foil and then adhered the silver foil to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Blueberry Bunches stamp set and Versamark ink. I sprinkled silver embossing powder over the sentiment and then shook off the excess. Then I used my Heat Tool to watch the magic happen! I always get a little excited watching the sentiment change!
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the sentiment out and then used the next bigger size to cut a piece of Silver Foil. I adhered the sentiment to the silver foil, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

Last Chance Products
I find it helpful to go up to the top of Last Chance Products Category and sort the products from A-Z. Then, they are in alphabetical order. My brain just works better when products are in alphabetical order.
- The Last Chance Products category will include retiring products from the September -December 2024 Mini Catalog and Online Exclusive releases, excluding Paper Pumpkin. When the Annual Catalog retires, you will find the retiring products in the Last Chance Products category of the online store (this won’t happen until the beginning of April).
- Last Chance Products in this category are available while supplies last and will be discontinued when they sell out. Items will be automatically removed from the category and the online store when they are discontinued.
- Discounts vary and are subject to change.
- Stampin’ Up! may add individual items from bundles or suite collections to the Last Chance Products category. If one or more products from the suite collection or bundle are in the Last Chance Products category, then the bundle and suite collection will also appear in this category. The bundle or suite will not be orderable if one or more of the items in the bundle or suite collection sell out. Our standard 10% bundle discounts will be available if one or more of the items move to the Last Chance Product category; however, the item in the Last Chance Products category may have a deeper discount.
- There may be times Stampin’ Up! will need to discontinue certain products outside of this process. This can happen due to factors outside our control, such as overseas shipping issues, disruptions to the supply chain for raw materials, or changes to our suppliers. If a product is discontinued outside the process, it won’t be available in our Last Chance Products category.
- There will no longer be a Clearance Rack, it will be now known as the Last Chance Products page.

by Tracy | Sep 16, 2024 | Hello Card
I have one more card to share with you today using Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper. I also used the Everyday Greetings stamp set, Nested Essentials Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and Opal Rounds Assortment.
I started with a piece of Crushed Curry for my card base. Then I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Before I adhered it to the card base, I added a piece of Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper to the embossed Basic White cardstock and then adhered it to the card base.
Next, I adhered another piece of Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper to a square of Crushed Curry cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Everyday Greetings and Cajun Craze ink. I cut it out using the Nested Essentials Dies. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, on the right side only, 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 added three Opal Rounds to the front.

Mystery Boxes
I’m offering Mystery Boxes again but these are primarily filled with retired stamp sets. I’ve been a demonstrator for 15 years and I’d like to give my retired stamp sets to a new home. I have filled Medium Rate Flat USPS shipping boxes stuffed with stamp sets and I’ve thrown in a few more goodies! I have included three bundles in each box with a stamp set and dies.
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 and there is some staining on the wood but that doesn’t affect the quality of the stamps.
There are two ways to get a Mystery Box:
- Place a minimum $125 order (before shipping/tax) at my Stampin’ Up! online store using the host code ZY3UX3NY and I will send a Mystery Box to you as a free gift and I’ll even pay the postage! Using the host code will alert me that you want a Mystery Box. If you order is $150 or more, please DO NOT use the host code so you can receive Stampin’ Rewards (free product) directly from Stampin’ Up! After you’ve placed your order (only if your order is $150 or more), please email me that you’d like a Mystery Box (click “Email Me” on the sidebar).
- If you don’t want to place an order, you can purchase a Mystery Box for $100 plus $16 postage. Email me that you’d like a Mystery Box and I’ll send you a PayPal invoice (click “Email Me” on the sidebar).
More Information
- You must use the host code ZY3UX3NY when placing your minimum $125 order (if your order is $150 or more, do not used the host code- see above).
- My Mystery Boxes have a value of at least $275, if not more.
- Three Die Bundles will be included in each box (stamp set and a set of dies).
- One box per order.
- Using the host code will let me know you’d like a Mystery Box.
- You’ll receive at least two Bradley Points with your order.
- I have added extra products in the box though they are primarily stamp sets. The extra products can include Designer Series Paper, a punch, an embellishment or ribbon.

by Tracy | Aug 28, 2024 | Birthday Card
I needed a card for my son-in-law’s birthday and I’m sharing the card I made for him. I used Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper (DSP). This has been unavailable for a few weeks but it’s now in and on sale until August 31st. I also used the Happiest Day stamp set, Spotlight on Nature Dies and the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. I have another version of this card using Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper and you can see that card here.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut my Winter Meadow DSP (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List) and then added a strip of Pretty Peacock cardstock that I embossed using the Dashing Designs Embossing Folder. I try to cut it a little bit a longer than needed and then I can just trim it off. I adhered the DSP to a piece of Pretty Peacock and then adhered the entire piece to the front of my card.
I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Happiest Day. I then cut it out using the Spotlight on Nature Dies (these dies are currently unavailable but are estimated to be back in stock the week of September 9th, but sometimes products do come in earlier than anticipated). I cut a larger circle out of Pretty Peacock cardstock and then adhered the sentiment to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
