Today I have another card using the Adorable Owls stamp set. I also used Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper and the Gingham Embossing Folder. Both the Adorable Owls stamp set and the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper are free with a qualifying purchase during Sale-a-Bration. Read on for more information!
I started with a piece Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I layered a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock with a piece of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Gingham Embossing Folder. Then, I adhered it to the front of the card.
Next, I layered another piece of Balmy Blue cardstock with Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. Dandy Designs is a HUGE pack of paper and you can earn it FREE with a $100 purchase.
I stamped the owl using the Adorable Owls stamp set in Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock. I colored the owl using these Stampin’ Blends:
- Crumb Cake Light and Dark
- Pool Party Light
- Balmy Blue Light
- Petal Pink Light
After coloring the owl, I cut him out using the Layering Circles Dies. Using these same dies, I cut a larger scalloped circle out of Balmy Blue and adhered the owl to it. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Memento ink and the stamp set, Easter Bunny. I then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies (these dies have been out of stock for quite some time but Stampin’ Up! is estimating they’ll be back in stock the week of February 13th). I added adhesive to the top part of the sentiment only and adhered it to the Designer Series Paper layer.
I colored five rhinestones using my Dark Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend, although it’s hard to tell in the pictures. It’s so nice to be able to color rhinestones to match your card! I have to admit, I forgot about this trick!

Today’s cards were made using Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper, and the Around the Bend stamp set (you have the option to purchase this stamp set in either cling or photopolymer – see Supply List). Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper is a free gift you can choose when you make a $50 purchase.
I started with a piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock and scored it in two places (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock and placed them in the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then I adhered the larger piece to the left side and the smaller piece, on the right.
I cut another piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock and layered it with a piece of Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side and down the middle and then adhered it to the left panel. I stamped the sentiment in Rich Razzleberry ink and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the Designer Series Paper. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
Here’s another version of the card but I used the Painted Posies 3D Embossing Folder.

Orders must be placed by today, January 23, 2022 and the Card Samplers will be mailed approximately February 2, 2023.
Today’s card was created using Fancy Flora 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Around the Bend stamp set and the Decorative Circle Punch, (which is currently on the Low Inventory List).
Before going any further, I want to make you aware that Stampin’ Up! has released six stamp sets and/or bundles in the Mini Catalog that come in a choice of photopolymer or cling rubber. The stamp sets/bundles are:

I started with a piece of Highland Heather cardstock and scored it in two places (you can see the measurements below the Supply List). After burnishing my score lines, I cut two pieces of Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper and adhered them both to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Gorgeous Grape ink and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Then I used the Decorative Circle Punch to cut the shape out of Highland Heather cardstock and adhered the sentiment to the front. On the back of the Highland Heather circle, I added two rows of Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side only and then adhered it to the left flap.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card and added five Opaque Adhesive Backed Gems to the front of the card.

The card I’m sharing today was made using a new Stampin’ Up! stamp set from the January – June Mini Catalog called Best Day. This was a stamp set that jumped out at me and I had to get it. I also used Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper which can be chosen as a free gift when you purchase $100 in Stampin’ Up! product. This is a huge package of paper with 48 sheets!
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Basic White cardstock, Fresh Freesia cardstock and Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card base.
I stamped the kitty in Memento ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and then colored it using these Stampin’ Blends:
- Light & Dark Gray Granite
- Dark Fresh Freesia
- Dark Petal Pink
- Light Daffodil Delight
I cut the kitty out using the Stylish Shapes Dies and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink using the Best Day stamp set and adhered it underneath the kitty. I added five rhinestones to the front (three small and two big) to the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

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.
