Happy Valentine’s Day!!
Today’s card was created using the stamp set, Simply Fabulous, Regency Park Designer Series Paper and the Something Fancy Dies. The Simply Fabulous stamp set was one I passed by in the Annual Catalog until I saw a card someone made using it and had to have it. I love big, bold sentiments.
This is the same layout I used with yesterday’s card. You can get so many different looks by changing up the paper, sentiments and dies. If you missed yesterday’s card, you can see it here.
I started with Mango Melody cardstock for the base of my card. Then I layered two pieces of Regency Park Designer Series Paper with two pieces of Shaded Spruce cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) and adhered both to the card base.
I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the inside of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Simply Fabulous, and Shaded Spruce ink. When a stamp is bold, I like to use my Stamparatus. The paper is held in place with powerful magnets and I can keep inking up the stamp until it’s as dark as I’d like.
Next, I cut the sentiment out using the Something Fancy Dies. I cut the same shape, but larger, out of Mango Melody cardstock using these same dies and then layered the two pieces together. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side, on only the part that would be touching the left panel, and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added five Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots to the right panel.
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.

Today’s card was made using the Stampin’ Up! stamp set, Beautifully Happy. You can earn this stamp set FREE with a $100 purchase during Sale-a-Bration 2023 (supplies are limited and may run out before Sale-a-Bration is over on February 28, 2023). I also used Regency Park Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I added strips of Regency Park Designer Series Paper using two different designs and adhered them to the card base.
Next, I stamped the flowers and leaves in the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Memento Ink and then colored them using these Stampin’ Blends:
- Balmy Blue Light and Dark
- Granny Apple Green Light and Dark
- Daffodil Delight Dark
After I colored the flowers and leaves I cut them out using the Stylish Shapes Dies (these dies have been out of stock but are estimated to be in the week of February 13, 2023). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it in the center of the card.
I then stamped the sentiment in Memento ink and cut it out with Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the lower right hand corner. To complete my card, I added three Glossy Dots which add a lot of sparkle to the card!

The card I’m sharing with you today is another version of the card I shared yesterday. I used Stampin’ Up! Regency Park 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Full of Love. You can see the other version of today’s card, here.
I started with a piece of Night of Navy cardstock and then embossed two pieces of Balmy Blue cardstock using the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. After adhering these pieces to the front of the card, I layered a piece of Night of Navy cardstock and Regency Park Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the stamp set, Full of Love. I then cut the sentiment out using the Meadow Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added two Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots to each side of the sentiment.

I hope you each had a very happy holiday!
Today’s card was made with several new products that will debut on January 5th when the new Mini Catalog goes live!
The new products on my card are:
- Sentimental Park stamp set #160561
- Regency Park 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper #160559
- Night of Navy 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon #160581
I started with a base of Balmy Blue cardstock and added a layer of Basic White cardstock that was embossed using the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder. I cut another piece of Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered a piece of Regency Park Designer Series Paper. I then wrapped a piece of Night of Navy Bordered Ribbon around this layer and tied a knot. I added Stampin Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Night of Navy ink and the stamp set, Sentimental Park. I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to just the top and bottom of the sentiment and adhered it on top of the ribbon. I find that if I add Dimensionals to the center of the sentiment, it doesn’t sit well on the ribbon.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
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.
