The card I’m sharing today was made using the True Beauty Bundle (you always save 10% when you purchase a bundle) which includes the True Beauty stamp set and the Organic Beauty Dies. I also used Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Melon Mambo cardstock that I embossed using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. Next, I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment onto the rectangle in Garden Green ink using the stamp set, True Beauty. The center flower was cut out of the Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper using the Organic Beauty Dies.
I used the stamp set, True Beauty to stamp the other flowers in Daffodil Delight ink and the leaves in Garden Green ink. I cut them out with the Organic Beauty Dies. I used Mini Glue Dots to attach the leaves to the underside of each flower. I glued the Daffodil Delight flowers to the rectangle but added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the the back of the Melon Mambo flower. To complete the card, I aded three Glossy Dots to the front of the card.

Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Eclectic Garden stamp set, Lovely You stamp set, Subtles 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (retiring and on sale), Scalloped Contours Dies, and the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder (retiring and on sale). I used the same layout that I used on THIS card last week but I turned the card so that it’s horizontal rather than vertical.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut two pieces of Subtles 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (all the measurements are below the Supply List) and then cut a larger piece out of Balmy Blue cardstock. I ran the Balmy Blue cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. Then I adhered the embossed cardstock and Designer Series Paper to the front of the card.
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a piece of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the bird in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Eclectic Garden. Then I also stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Lovely You. I colored the bird using Stampin’ Blends: Light & Dark Balmy Blue (body of bird), Light & Dark So Saffron (body of bird), Light & Dark Granny Apple Green (leaves), Light Pumpkin Pie (beak), and Light Soft Suede (branches).
To complete my card, I used my Dark Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend to color three Polished Dots and then adhered them to the front of the card.

I used the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes for the base of my card and aren’t the matching envelopes so pretty!!!?? I couldn’t wait to make a card using these cards and envelopes!
I used the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut a rectangle out of a piece of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment using the stamp set Cup of Tea with one of the new In Colors, Starry Sky. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the rectangle and adhered it to the Tea Boutique card base. I used the Teacup Dies to cut the teacup out of Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the teacup and placed it above the sentiment.
Using the Teacup Dies again, I cut two large and three small hearts out of Real Red cardstock. I used Mini Glue Dots to adhere the larger hearts and a small amount of Multipurpose Glue for the smaller ones.
To complete my card, I added three 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots. The Tea Boutique products will be available beginning May 3rd when the new Annual Catalog goes live!

Today’s card was made with several retiring products:
All retiring products are available while supplies last!
I started with a piece a Thick Basic White cardstock and then cut two pieces of Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper (you can find the measurements below the Supply List) and a piece of Night of Navy cardstock that I ran through the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered all three pieces to the card front.
Next, I cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink using the stamp set, Dragonfly Garden. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
Using Memento Ink, I stamped a dragonfly from the stamp set, Dragonfly Garden onto Basic White cardstock. I colored it using our Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2 (don’t let the words watercolor scare you, I didn’t use any water). I colored the wings with the Night of Navy pencil and then used Garden Green around the edges. Then, I used a Blender Pen to blend the colors together. It’s amazing how nice it looks when you use the Blender Pen. I punched it out using the Dragonflies Punch, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back, and adhered it to the rectangle.
To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones to the front. As I mentioned earlier, these rhinestones are retiring. I love these rhinestones and they aren’t just for the holidays! I love that there’s a variety of colors to use. Grab them while you can!
Since you’ve read this far, I want to share a funny moment . When I went to photograph today’s card, I realized that I made a mistake and it’s one that I always try to check before adhering my pieces to the card front! Sheesh! I cut the panel off and put it on another base, correctly!! Ha, ha!! Has this happened to you before? If it hasn’t, just wait!

Today’s card features the adorable Friends of the Forest stamp set. I also used the Deer Builder Punch and the Scalloped Contours Dies.
I started with a piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock for the base of my card. I then cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I stamped the tree, flowers, tree trunk, bunny and sentiment directly onto the scalloped rectangle using Memento Ink and the stamp set, Friends of the Forest. On another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the deer and used my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends to color it in. I cut it out using the Deer Builder Punch.
Here are the Stampin’ Blends I used to color everything:
- Deer – Crumb Cake (Dark and Light)
- Tree: Dark Crumb Cake and Light Granny Apple Green
- Grass: Granny Apple Green (Light)
- Flowers: Daffodil Delight (Dark) and Flirty Flamingo (Dark)
- Mushrooms: Crumb Cake (Light) & Pool Party (Light)
- Tree trunk: Dark Crumb Cake
- Bunny: Petal Pink (Light & Dark)
After coloring everything, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the scalloped rectangle and placed it on the card base. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the deer before placing it on the card.
To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
