The January – June Mini Catalog is retiring and I thought it would be fun to choose my top five products. I would have added New Horizons Designer Series Paper but unfortunately it has sold out. All retiring products are available while supplies last.
For more information about the cards below, click on the image and you’ll be taken to the original post.
Please note that some products shown on the cards are no longer available
#1 Happy & Heartfelt Stamp Set
I love this stamp set and it’s one I will keep in my personal stash. I love the sentiments and the font used.
I used Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper on the card below. It’s also retiring and 50% off. Normally $15.00, now $7.50.
#2 Flowing Flowers Stamp Set
Sometimes I buy stamp sets just for sentiments and I was drawn not only to the sentiments in this set but the images too.
#3 Polished Dots
What I love most about the Polished Dots is that I can I can color the clear ones with my Stampin’ Blends to match my card. Instant coordination! They also look really nice just left as is. I’m really sad these are retiring. They are now 30% off. Normally $7.50, now $5.25.
New Horizons Designer Series Paper was used on this card but it has sold out.
#4 Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper
I love flowers and I love Designer Series Paper. When those two come together . . . .
This paper is now 30% off. Normally $11.50, now $8.05
#5 Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder
I was a little late to the party with this product. I think it’s a really pretty embossing folder and I wish I had used it more. There’s a big heart in the center, which can be cut out with the coordinating heart die but it can also be covered up as I did in the second card below.
The Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder which includes 9 dies is now 50% off. Normally $29.00, now $14.50.
I also used Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper on this card and the stamp set, Happy & Heartfelt (both on my top 5 list).

Today’s card is a sweet one made with the Stampin’ Up! Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder. It comes with an embossing folder and nine dies! You can find this product in the January – June Mini Catalog or here at my Stampin’ Up! online store.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock. Then I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the large heart die in the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder (the dies are included with the embossing folder) to cut a piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the middle of the card. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink using the stamp set, Happy & Heartfelt onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. I cut it out using the smaller heart in the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it in the center of the other heart. Easy peasy but I know the recipient of this card will love it!

Some of you may have noticed that in the past few weeks I haven’t shared a free tutorial on Saturday. I love providing free tutorials but it just came down to not having enough hours in each day to get everything done. I had to reassess and make the hard decision to discontinue them, for now. I will still continue to share here on my blog and I hope that my cards will inspire you to create. Thanks for your understanding!
Today’s card was made specifically for a special someone who’s going through a difficult time right now. It features the stamp set, Inspired Thoughts, Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper and the Double Oval Punch.
I started with a base of Pool Party cardstock and scored it in two places so the card would open in a fun way (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card. Then I placed two pieces of Basic White cards inside the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered the two pieces to the front of the card.
I cut another piece of Pool Party cardstock and adhered a piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the upper half of the cardstock and adhered it to the top panel. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Pool Party ink using the stamp set, Inspired Thoughts. I cut it out using the Double Oval Punch, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the top panel.
To complete the card, I added a large Brushed Brass Butterfly below the sentiment.

Today’s card features Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. Nothing says spring quite like flowers and I think we could all use a little spring! I also used the Flowering Tulips stamp set for my sentiment.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock. I layered two pieces of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper with two pieces of Rich Razzleberry cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). I adhered the bottom layer to the card front using Multipurpose Glue but used Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the flowery piece. I love dimension on my cards and 99% of the time, pop up at least one of the layers.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Rich Razzleberry ink and the stamp set, Flowering Tulips, and cut it out using the Layering Circles Dies. I used these same dies to cut a larger, scalloped circle out of Rich Razzleberry and then adhered the two pieces together. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added three Polished Dots to the Designer Series Paper.
Bundle Alert: The Flowering Tulips Bundle includes the Flowering Tulips stamp set and the Tulips Dies. You always save 10% when a bundle is purchased.

Today’s card features the Lovely You stamp set, Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper, Scalloped Contours Dies and the Double Oval Punch.
I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. Then I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock. I cut another piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper (the measurements I used can be found below the Supply List) and adhered it to the rectangle.
I wrapped a piece of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the rectangle and tied a bow over on the left. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Pool Party ink and the stamp set, Lovely You. I cut it out using the Double Oval Punch.
To complete my card, I added three Polished Dots below the sentiment. These are my new favorite embellishment! They add some shine to every card and you can even color them to match your card with Stampin’ Blends!
