The card I’m sharing with you today is another take on the card I posted last Friday using Stampin’ Up! Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper, the Blueberry Bunches stamp set, Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder, Nested Essentials Dies and Stylish Shapes Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I layered a piece of Berry Burst cardstock and Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper (DSP) and then adhered it to the front of my card. You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
Next, I added another layer of Berry Burst cardstock and Flowering Zinnias DSP and adhered that to the front of the card. I used the Nested Essentials Dies to cut a banner out of Berry Burst cardstock and Basic White cardstock.
The Basic White cardstock banner was placed in the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then I adhered it to the Berry Burst banner and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Berry Burst ink using the stamp set, Blueberry Bunches. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut the next larger circle out of Berry Burst cardstock. I layered the sentiment onto the Berry Burst circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals only to the back on the right side and then adhered it to the banner. I added three Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels under the sentiment.

My card today was made using the Cutest Cows Bundle which includes the Cutest Cows stamp set and Cutest Cows Builder Punch. I also used the Nested Essentials Dies, Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper (DSP), and the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
I started with a piece of Basic Black cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock and adhered one to the inside of the card. With the other one, I placed it inside the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I layered a piece of Basic Black cardstock and Zoo Crew DSP and adhered it to the card front. Then, I stamped the cute cow in Memento Ink and then colored him with my Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. I punched him out using the Cutest Cows Builder Punch.
I used the Nested Essentials Dies to cut a rounded rectangle out of Basic Black cardstock and the next smaller size out of Basic White cardstock. I checked first to see where my cow would go before I stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink using the Cutest Cows stamp set. I attached the body of the cow to the Basic White cardstock using Glue Dots and then added two Dimensionals to his head and adhered both pieces to the front of the card.

Today I’m sharing a card that I made using Stampin’ Up! Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper (an online exclusive product), the Blueberry Bunches stamp set, Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder (another online exclusive product), Nested Essentials Dies and Stylish Shapes Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a layer of Highland Heather cardstock and Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper (DSP) to the front of the card. Next, I added another layer of Highland Heather cardstock and a different design of Flowering Zinnias DSP.
I used the Nested Essentials Dies to cut a banner out of Highland Heather cardstock and a smaller one out of Basic White cardstock. I embossed the Basic White banner using the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I layered the two banners together and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Highland Heather ink using the stamp set, Blueberry Bunches. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then cut another larger circle out of Highland Heather cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to the front of the Highland Heather circle and then on the back I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side only and adhered it to the banner.
To complete my card, I added three Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the front of the card.

Before sharing my card with you I want to remind you that that there will be a possible disruption to my blog beginning tonight (Friday) at 11:00 pm Eastern Time. My blog will be moving to a new server by the person who “hosts” my blog (Amy Celona), She will be copying my blog (as well as the blogs of her other clients) and moving them to a new server and she is saying that there will be some downtime. It’s possible my blog may not show up if you try to find it and if you send an email to my stampingwithtracy address, it may possibly bounce. Amy has said that the new server will be faster to load images, etc. In a perfect world, everything should be okay by 3:00 am Eastern Time but if it isn’t, please know that my blog will be up and running at some point on Saturday.
On to my card! I love Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper #162977. I love the birds and the colors used in this beautiful paper! This paper will be a free item with a $50 order (before tax/shipping) during Saleabration which begins on January 4th! I also used the Stippled Roses stamp set #162657 for my sentiment which will also be available in the new Mini Catalog that goes live on January 4th.
I started with a piece of Bubble Bath cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. I then added a strip of Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper (the opposite side of the bird paper).
I cut a piece of Bubble Bath cardstock and layered it with Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper. I then adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped my sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink onto Basic White cardstock using the new Stippled Roses stamp set (available January 4th).
I cut out the sentiment using the Nested Essentials Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (but not the part that hangs off the card) and adhered it so it would hang off the bird layer. Then, I added three Tinsel Gems in Misty Moonlight to the bird layer and two more to the embossed part of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
