by Tracy | Aug 9, 2024 | Hello Card
Today I’m sharing a card that was one of the cards in my recent Simply Said Card Sampler. I used the Simply Said stamp set, To Market Designer Series Paper (on sale this month), Everyday Details Dies and the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder (this folder is currently on the Low Inventory List).


I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. I then cut a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock and a piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered them together (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List).
I cut two pieces of To Market Designer Series Paper (DSP) and a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock that I ran through the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered all three pieces to the Basic White cardstock. Next, I wrapped a piece of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon around the piece and tied a knot over to the left. Then, I adhered the entire piece to the front of the card.



I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Blackberry Bliss ink using the stamp set, Simply Said and cut it out using the Everyday Details Dies. I cut a larger circle out of Blackberry Bliss cardstock using the Everyday Details Dies and adhered the sentiment to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

Today’s card features Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper (on sale this month), the Country Flowers stamp set, and Everyday Details Dies.


When I initially saw this paper all I could see were ducks and fish. Upon closer look I saw the pretty florals and I was hooked!
I started with a piece of Pretty in Pink cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper to a piece of Basic White cardstock. I’ve realized that two pieces of this Designer Series Paper are not on the graphic above nor are they on the Stampin’ Up! website. Here are the two missing designs and the back of each one. I called Stampin’ Up! to let them know and hopefully it will be fixed on the website.

Back to my card!! I added another piece of Lily Pond Lane DSP to a piece of Pretty in Pink cardstock and then adhered it to the card front.


I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Country Flowers (I love the style of font in this set) using Pretty in Pink ink. I cut it out using the Everyday Details Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the the back and adhered it to the card front.


To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added three 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems to the front of the card. These gems are hard to keep in stock, probably because they are so beautiful. As of this writing, they are again on the Low Inventory List.

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.
Sale: $10.62
Price: $12.50
Bundle Alert: The Country Flowers Bundle is available with a 10% discount rather than buying the products separately.

Measurements
- Pretty in Pink cardstock: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ score at 4-1/4″
- Pretty in Pink cardstock: 3-3/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper: 5-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper: 3-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
- Basic White cardstock: (2) 5-1/4″ x 4″

Before sharing my card with you today with a sneak peek of upcoming products, I’d like to remind you that fourteen Designer Series Papers are on sale 15% off starting today! You can find the ones on sale below but please note that you must click on the image to see the sale price.
Please note below for additional details:
- You must open and close your order during the dates of the sale for the discount to be applied.
- There are NO limits on ordering. However products are only available while supplies last so shop early!
- The sale ends on August 31, 2024

The new September- December Mini Catalog will go live on September 4th. If you’ve ordered from me this year, I ordered a catalog for you and it will come directly from Stampin’ Up!. If you haven’t received your catalog towards the end of the month, let me know.
For my card today I used the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set (#164184), Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (#164183), and the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder (#164069). These three products will be available on September 4th. I also used the Everyday Details Dies.

I started with a piece of Garden Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then I inserted a piece of Basic White cardstock into the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder (available September 4th) and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered it to the front of the Garden Green cardstock. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.


I adhered a piece of Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (available September 4th) to a piece of Garden Green cardstock and adhered it to the front of the card.
Next, I use the Everyday Details Dies to cut a circle out of Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (available September 4th) and another larger one out of Garden Green cardstock. Then, I adhered them together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Garden Green ink using the stamp set, Winterly Tree Tops (available September 4th). I didn’t want to use the entire sentiment, it says thinking of you always, so I covered the word “always” with a post it note, stamped it into the ink pad, took off the post post it note and stamped it onto my Basic White cardstock. Then, I cut it out using the Everyday Details Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below the bird. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

Mystery Boxes

What’s a Mystery Box?
Please note: I will temporarily stop sending out Mystery Boxes on July 30th. I just noticed that I had inadvertently said June 30th is when I would stop sending out Mystery Boxes and it should have been July 30th and I will extend it until the end of today, July 31st. I’ve corrected all the posts that say the wrong date. Is everyone feeling that this year is just screaming by??? I can’t keep track of the months!
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! Using the host code will alert me that you want a Mystery Box. 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!. 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 $80 plus $18.00 postage (postal rates have gone up and I had to raise the price). Email me that you want a box and I’ll send you a PayPal invoice (click “Email Me” on the sidebar).
More Information
- You must use the host code PNYBSJQ2 when placing your order (if your order is over $150, do not use the host code – see above)
- $125 order must be before tax/shipping amount
- One box per order
- Using the host code will let me know you want a Mystery Box
- You’ll receive at least TWO Bradley Points with your order
- No refunds or exchanges.
- Each box will be different and a mystery! The boxes are already sealed up and I’m unable to take requests for the contents of the boxes.
- Feel free to email me before placing an order to see if I have boxes available.
