by Tracy | Mar 14, 2025 | Hello Card
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using Mixed Florals Bundle, Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, Perennial Postage Dies, Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder and Purple Fine Shimmer Gems.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Highland Heather cardstock using the Plaster Painting 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of the card.
I die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Perennial Postage Dies using the largest die in the set. I then adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the flowers using the Mixed Florals Stamp Set in Memento Ink and then cut them out using the Mixed Florals Dies.
Next, I colored the flowers (using Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends), the leaves (using Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends) and the smaller flowers (using Boho Blue Stampin’ Blends). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment on Basic White cardstock using the Beautiful Butterflies Stamp Set and Highland Heather ink. I cut it out using the second smallest die in the Perennial Postage Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to just the top of the sentiment and adhered it to the flowers.
To complete my card, I added three large Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the front of the card.

by Tracy | Mar 12, 2025 | Stampin' Blends
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Memorable Blooms Bundle, Perennial Postage Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and Low Profile Dots.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then, I cut two pieces of Poppy Parade cardstock and ran them both through the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered the bigger one to the front of the card and the smaller piece to the “inside” of the card.
I stamped the flowers onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Memorable Blooms stamp set in Memento Ink. I colored the flowers and leaves using Poppy Parade & Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. Then, I cut the flowers out using the Memorable Blooms Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and set it aside.
I used Basic White cardstock to cut one of the Perennial Postage Dies (the second largest one). Next, I added the sentiment down towards the bottom of the rectangle in Memento Ink using the Memorable Blooms Stamp Set. Then, I added Tear & Tape (or a strong adhesive) to the back (not the part that will hang over) and adhered it to the right side of the card. Next, I added the flowers to the front and then added three Low Profile Dots.

by Tracy | Feb 14, 2025 | For You Card
Happy Valentine’s Day!!
The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies and Two-Tone Sparkle Gems. The Beautiful Butterflies Bundle is currently not available but Stampin’ Up! is estimating it should be back in stock the week of February 24, 2025.
I started with a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I added a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper to the front of the card.
I cut out a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Perennial Postage Dies and then ran it through the Beautiful Butterfly Hybrid Embossing Folder. I adhered this piece to the front of the card.
I cut a butterfly out of Balmy Blue cardstock using the dies that comes with the Hybrid Embossing Folder. Then, I cut another detailed butterfly out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper. I glued the detailed butterfly to the solid butterfly with a strip of glue down the center of the detailed butterfly. Next, I cut the middle part of the butterfly out of Basic White cardstock and then glued it to the detailed butterfly. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and then set it aside.
I stamped my sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Balmy Blue ink and the stamp set, Beautiful Butterflies. I cut it out using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies. When I cut it out I made sure the die was over to the right. Then, I decided where the butterfly and the sentiment would go. I adhered the sentiment to the card first and then placed the butterfly on the front.
To complete my card, I added three Two-Toned Sparkle Gems to the card front. This was the first time I had used these gems and they are so pretty on the card! They coordinate with Balmy Blue and Bubble Bath! Then, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

by Tracy | Sep 27, 2024 | Christmas Card
Today I have another card to share using the Reindeer Fun Bundle, Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper (DSP), Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder, and Perennial Postage Dies. This card was super easy to make since I cut the two reindeer out of the Reindeer Days DSP with the Reindeer Fun Dies.
I started off with Garden Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder using my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of my card.
I cut the two deer using the Reindeer Fun dies and then adhered the deer to the front of the card, over to the left. I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Reindeer Fun. I cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on my card, over to the right.
To complete my card, I added five Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems to the front and added a piece of Basic White to the inside.

On to my cards for today! I used Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper (on sale this month), the Simply Said stamp set, Perennial Postage Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies and the Fern 3D Embossing Folder.
I started with Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. I then embossed a piece of Night of Navy cardstock using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered the embossed piece to the card front.
I used the Perennial Postage Dies to cut a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and then I cut a piece of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper to place on the Balmy Blue cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card front.
I stamped the sentiment on to Basic White cardstock using Night of Navy ink and the stamp set, Simply Said. I cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and cut a larger circle out of Balmy Blue cardstock. I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems to the front. My pictures do not show how beautiful these gems are! They really do sparkle!!!
This next card uses all the same products as the one above but I used the Unbounded Love Bundle for the sentiment and one of the dies to cut the sentiment out. I also used Baker’s Twine around the card.

Two New Kits by Stampin’ Up!
Click each image for more information. I do have some information about the Haunted Home Kit. See below.
Stampin’ Up! was blown away by the interest in the Haunted Home Kit! This is what Stampin’ Up! had to say about this specific kit: “Wow! Your interest in the Haunted Home kit has been overwhelming. Like you, we love it, and we must admit we didn’t anticipate it would vanish like a ghost, selling out in just days in most markets. Ordinarily, we wouldn’t release an update on an out-of-stock kit, but we see how this is a special circumstance as it relates to your holiday crafting plans. We’re happy to say, we have more Haunted Home kits on their way, and we felt it important to let you know they’re not projected to arrive until after Halloween. We anticipate they’ll arrive in November, barring any unforeseen external delays. Fortunately, we plan to carry this cute kit through Halloween 2025, so you can place an order when they arrive and plan on having some frightful fun with them in the future. Thank you for your patience and support.”
