Today’s card was made using the Sending Smiles Bundle which includes the Sending Smiles stamp set and the Sending Dies. I also used Butterfly Kisses 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and Timber 3D Embossing Folder.


I started with a piece of Parakeet Party for my card base. I then placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I added a strip of Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper to the cardstock and then adhered the piece to the card base.
As I was creating, I wondered how different Parakeet Party is from Granny Apple Green and I was very surprised!! I thought they would be very close but they aren’t!


I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the large Basic White stitched circle. Then I stamped the leaves directly onto the circle using Parakeet Party ink. Then on another piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the two flowers in Highland Heather ink and used Daffodil Delight for the centers using the stamp set, Sending Smiles. I cut them out using the Sending Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of each flower and adhered them to the circle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the circle and adhered it to the front of the card.

I used the Sending Dies again to cut the Highland Heather “sending” and the Basic White one. I used Multipurpose Glue to adhere them together (another option is use our adhesive sheets). I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. I also used the Sending Dies to cut the sentiment. First, I stamped the sentiment in Parakeet Party ink onto Basic White cardstock using the Sending Smiles stamp set. I then cut it out but the sentiment is much to short for the die so I cut both ends off as shown in the pictures below. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.




To complete my card, I added three 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds.

Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Cheerful Basket Bundle which includes the Cheerful Basket stamp set and the Full Basket Dies.


I started with a piece of Parakeet Party cardstock for the base of my card. I cut a strip of Parakeet Party cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) and placed it inside one of the Elegant Eucalyptus 3D Embossing Folders and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered it to a piece of Basic White cardstock and then adhered the piece to the card base (I also adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card).


Next, I stamped the basket, apples and cat onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento ink and the Cheerful Basket stamp set and colored them with my Stampin’ Blends. I cut all three pieces using the Full Basket Dies.
- Basket: Light & Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends
- Apples: Light & Dark Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends, Light & Dark Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends
- Cat: Light Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends
I used Mini Glue Dots to adhere the apples to the inside of the basket and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front. I added adhesive to the back of the cat, only the part that is touching the basket.

I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Sweet Sorbet ink using the stamp set, Sending Smiles and then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added five 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots.
