Today I’m sharing another card using Rings of Love Designer Series Paper. I love this paper and it’s FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! I shared another card yesterday with a different design from this package of paper and you can see it here.


I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Mint Macaron cardstock, Night of Navy cardstock and Rings of Love Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements I used below the supply list). Next, I used the Amazing Thanks Dies to cut the word “thanks” out of Night of Navy and Basic White cardstock. I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere the two pieces together (another option is to use our Adhesive Sheets). I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (I cut some in half) and adhered it to the front of the card.


The sentiment I used is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set but I didn’t want the entire sentiment so I covered the part I didn’t want with Post It Tape (or you can use a post it note). Then I inked the stamp with Night of Navy ink, removed the post it tape and stamped onto Basic White cardstock. The trick is to remember to remove the post it tape!!! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve forgotten this really important step! 🙂



I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut out the sentiment. The die is larger than the sentiment and has a banner at each end so I positioned one end of the die at the beginning of the sentiment and then trimmed off the other end with my Paper Snips. These are excellent and very sharp scissors! I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added five clear Elegant Faceted Gems to the front.

Enjoy your day!
by Tracy | May 11, 2022 | Fun Fold Card
I haven’t shared in a few days because my husband and I have been dealing with poison oak. Definitely not fun and it was hard to create with itching on my mind. Luckily we’re on the road to an itch free life once again.
Today I have two fun fold cards to share with you using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I shared another card using this same layout a few weeks ago but used our Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. You can see that card HERE.


I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and scored it in two places to make the fun fold (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). Then I cut and embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched Greenery Die and adhered them to the two panels on the front of the card.

Next, I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and adhered a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (only on the top section) and adhered it to the top panel. I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Happiness Abounds stamp set and cut it out using the Double Oval Punch. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.
Here’s another variation also using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper but this time I used Melon Mambo cardstock and Melon Mambo ink.



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.
Measurements
- Fresh Freesia/Melon Mambo cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″ score at 2-3/4″ & 8-1/4″
- Fresh Freesia/Melon Mambo cardstock: 4-1/4″ x 3-1/4″
- Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper: 4″ x 3″
- Basic White cardstock: (2) 4″ x 2-1/2″
- Basic White cardstock: scrap for sentiment
- Basic White cardstock (inside): 5-1/4″ x 4″

The month of May is the best time to purchase the Starter Kit because Stampin’ Up! has added even more value! You’ll receive an additional $66.50 in In Color products!

Today’s card is a sneak peek of products that will be available on May 3,2022 when the new Stampin’ Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog goes live!! I can hardly wait!

I started with a piece of Pool Party cardstock for my card base. Then I ran a piece of Basic White cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (new product – you can find a list of all the new products I used in the Supply List below). Before adhering the embossed Basic White cardstock to the front of the card, I added a strip of Hues of Happiness 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper (new product). This paper is GORGEOUS!!!! Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park with this paper.

I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a scalloped circle out of Pool Party cardstock and a circle out of Basic White cardstock. Before adhering the smaller circle to the Pool Party circle, I stamped the sentiment in Pool Party ink using the stamp set, Happiness Abounds (new product). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. The Happiness Abounds Bundle (new product) includes the Happiness Abounds stamp set and the Blossoming Happiness Dies.

This next part was so easy!! I used the Blossoming Happiness Dies (new product) to cut the flowers and leaves out of the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper! I used Mini Glue Dots and Multipurpose Glue to attach the leaves and flowers together and then added them to the circle. To complete the card, I added three Pool Party Dots from the Glossy Dots Assortment (new product) to the front of the card. The other colors included in the package are Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo, and Daffodil Delight. These dots are colorful, glossy and gorgeous!
