Happy 4th of July to everyone here in the United States!
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Sunshine Vibes Stamp Set, Boho Vibes 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Everyday Arches Dies (an Online Exclusive), Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and Muted Palette Dots.
If my links don’t work, please try them again!
I started with a piece of Cloud Cover cardstock (one of our new In Colors) for the base of my card. Then I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.
I made two arches out of Cloud Cover cardstock and Boho Vibes Designer Series Paper using the Everyday Arches Dies. These dies are currently out of stock but did you know you can leave your email with Stampin’ Up! and they will let you know when they are back in stock? I’ve used this alert system several times. You will simply go to the page where the product is and leave your email (but if you are signed in, it will automatically populate your email for you)! The Everyday Arches Dies are estimated to be back in stock the week of July 14th.
I adhered the arches together and placed them on the card front.
I stamped the sentiment using the Sunshine Vibes stamp set on Very Vanilla cardstock using Cajun Craze ink. I cut it out using the Everyday Arches Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Cloud Cover Muted Palette Dots below the sentiment and an added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside of the card.

I was going to post another card using the Happy Hibiscus Bundle but I couldn’t find the dies on my messy desk! Does that happen to you? I’ve looked and looked for them but to no avail! They are probably right in front of me but I don’t see them.
Instead I’m going to share a card I made yesterday using the Gallery Blooms Bundle, With You in Mind stamp set, Everyday Arches Dies, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
I started with a piece of Strawberry Slush cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of the card.
I cut an arch out of Strawberry Slush cardstock and another one out of Basic White cardstock using the Everyday Arches Dies. I stamped the sentiment onto the Basic White arch, using the stamp set, With You in Mind. I adhered the arches together.
Then, I stamped the flowers onto Basic White cardstock in Memento ink using the Gallery Blooms stamp set. I colored the flowers with my Stampin’ Blends: Strawberry Slush (flowers), Granny Apple Green (leaves) and Pumpkin Pie (center of flowers). I cut them out using the Gallery Blooms Dies.
I adhered the flowers to the top of the arches, then, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the arches 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 and added five Strawberry Slush gems to the front of the card.

by Tracy | May 30, 2025 | Just a Note card
The card I’m sharing with you today was made with the same layout on Wednesday’s card and Thursday’s card.
For today’s card, I used Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive), the Simply Said Stamp Set, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Stylish Shapes Dies, and Silver & White Sheer Ribbon (an Online Exclusive).
If you get a 404 error or Out with the Old, In With the New error, please click the link again.
I started with Berry Burst cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the Basic White cardstock to the front of the card.
I layered a piece of Berry Burst cardstock and Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper together. I wrapped a piece of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon around the layer and tied a knot. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back but made sure the ribbon was over to the far left, so the sentiment would fit. I added the layered piece to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment on Basic White cardstock using Berry Burst ink. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Then, I cut another circle out of Berry Burst cardstock (the next largest size) and adhered the sentiment to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top and bottom and adhered it over the ribbon.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

Now Onto My Card
The card I’m sharing with you today was created using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and Starburst Sequins.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I then adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.
I layered two pieces of Fresh Freesia cardstock with Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (just be sure the DSP design on the horizontal piece is going horizontal). I adhered the vertical piece down with Multipurpose Glue and with the horizontal piece, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set in Fresh Freesia ink. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the horizontal piece.
To complete my card, I added three large Starburst Sequins in Fresh Freesia to the card front and added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
