Today’s card features the Hippest Hippos stamp set and the Hippo Dies. Each of these products can be earned with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! Spend $100 and you can earn both of them!
I started with a base of Petal Pink cardstock. Then I added a layer of Basic White to the inside of the card and the front. I placed a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock into one of the Elegant Eucalyptus 3D Embossing Folders and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine before adhering it to the front of the card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I layered a piece of Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and then adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the hippo onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink, colored the hippo using Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends and Sweet Sorbet Stampin’ Blends and then cut it out using the Hippo Dies.
I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock and another larger, scalloped one out of Petal Pink cardstock. Before adhering the two pieces together, I stamped the sentiment in Sweet Sorbet ink using the stamp set, Hippest Hippos. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the hippo and placed it on the sentiment piece. To complete the card, I added three Heart Pearls to the front of the card.

The card I’m sharing today is a quick and easy one using Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies, Bouquet of Love Embossing Folder and the stamp set, By My Side.
I started with a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). This is one of five new In Colors Stampin’ Up! released with the new catalog! Next, I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock inside the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. There’s an embossed heart in the center of the paper but I’ve covered it up (this embossing folder also comes with 9 dies).
To cover the heart up, I cut a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock and layered it with a piece of Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the layered piece and adhered it to the center of the card. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Sweet Sorbet ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, By My Side. This stamp set has some cute images and a lot of great sentiments.
I cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I only added adhesive to the part of the sentiment that sits on the layered piece and placed it on the card. I used three of our new 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots below the sentiment. To complete the card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the stamp set, Charming Sentiments, Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper and Stylish Shapes Dies.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then I placed a piece of Basic White cardstock in the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder, ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and then adhered it to the front of the card. I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and a piece of Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper, layered them together and adhered them to the front of the card.
I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut another piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper (I love that these dies all have stitching!!). I adhered the two pieces together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Charming Sentiments and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies, I added a small amount of adhesive on the upper half of the sentiment and then adhered it to the bottom of the stitched squares.
To complete the card, I added three 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to the front of the card. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.
