Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Hello Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves photopolymer stamp set is a wonderful new two step stamp set with leaves, flowers and beautiful sentiments. It coordinates with the returning bough punch and I used them both with the Fresh As A Daisy designer series paper for a cheerful hello card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a striped panel of Fresh As A Daisy designer series paper to the top of a Garden Green mat and a floral panel to the bottom. I wrapped a length of Wild Wheat ribbon around the seam, securing it in the back and popped it on the front of a Crushed Curry card base with dimensionals.

I stamped two of the large single leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set in Wild Wheat ink on Basic White and fussy cut them with my paper snips. I stamped two of the flower bunches in Daffodil Delight ink on Basic White and punched them out with the Bough punch. I punched the leaf cluster from Garden Green and adhered the leaves and flowers to the card with glue dots.

I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set in Garden Green ink on Daffodil Delight card stock and cut it out with the small rectangle from the Something Fancy dies. I used the medium die to cut a Garden Green mat and adhered the label to the mat with liquid glue. I popped it on the card front with dimensionals and adhered some green tinsel gems to finish the card.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the leaf sprig from the Stampin’ Up[ Layering Leaves stamp set in Garden Green ink on Basic White. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Fresh As A Daisy DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves stamp set are the most beautiful and really dress up a handmade card! I love that there are so many variations of flowers and leaves in this set that also coordinate with the sweet Bough Punch. A great addition to my crafting collection!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Hello Card

Good Morning! The new Fresh As A Daisy designer series paper is a pretty designer series paper pack with a sheet that has several smaller panels. I paired one of these panels with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints cling stamp set for a simple card to share today. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I embossed a Wild Wheat panel with the floral pattern in the Basics 3D embossing folders and adhered it to the front of a Wild Wheat card base with liquid glue. I trimmed the Fresh as a Daisy Panel and adhered it to an Early espresso mat and adhered them to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints cling stamp set using VersaMark ink on an Early Espresso panel and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut out the sentiment with the large round die from the Radiating Stitches dies.

I adhered a folded length of Wild Wheat ribbon to the card with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the label on top of the ribbon with dimensionals and finished the card front with In Color dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped wildflower from the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints stamp set in Wild Wheat ink in the corner of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of embossed Wild Wheat card stock to the bottom and adhered it to an Early Espresso mat. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The beautiful Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints stamp set and dies continue to be available in the new catalog – Yay!! The sentiments are simple and elegant, and go beautifully with the pretty flowers in the Fresh as a Daisy designer series paper pack and the prints are wonderful stamped in Wild Wheat, one of the new 2023-2025 In Colors!

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle is one of the items in Online Exclusives line. The Online Exclusives are not affected by the launch of the new catalog on Tuesday. These products will continue to be available. I’ve paired this sweet bundle with the beautiful Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper for today’s card. You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a geometric panel of the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the left side of a Pretty Peacock mat with liquid glue. I adhered a leafy pattern of the paper to the right side and wrapped it with a length of glitter white organdy ribbon, tying a knot. I adhered the layered panel to the front of a Lost Lagoon card base, with dimensionals. The leaves are so graceful in that gorgeous DSP!

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Versamark Ink on Lost Lagoon and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I punched it out with the Double Oval punch. I punched out a Pretty Peacock scalloped oval with the same punch and adhered the punched sentiment to it.

I adhered the label to the front of the card with dimensionals and finished the card with iridescent rhinestones.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the spatter stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Lost Lagoon in the corners of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock and adhered a strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side. I adhered the panel to a Pretty Peacock mat and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

With all the excitement of the the new catalog, it’s easy to overlook the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle and Hello Irresistible DSP! It’s still available and the stock many items have been replenished! It was a clue that Pretty Peacock and Lost Lagoon colors would be returning to the Stampin’ Up! color families. And yes, they’ll be available on Tuesday when the new catalog opens.

Join me for a Facebook Live This Afternoon!

I’ll be going live on my Facebook Business Page this afternoon to make a Mother’s Day card with the returning Places In The Heart Cling Stamp set. I hope you can join me at 1:00 ET today!

Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf Hello Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf bundle is a stamp and punch bundle that is part of the Online Exclusives. I used used it to make a tag hello card with some retiring products for a simple card for today. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I embossed a panel of the retiring Fancy Flora 6″ x 6″ designer series paper with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Soft Succulent card base. I love how the embossing brings the painted textures in the DSP to life with additional dimension! And it’s nice to get another card with the pretty retiring Soft Succulent In Color.

I stamped the stems from the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf photopolymer stamp set in Garden Green ink on a Soft Succulent panel. I stamped three small leaves in Garden Green ink at the top of the stems and stamped the veins over the leaves in Evening Evergreen ink. I cut the panel with the large angle tag die from the Tailor made tags. I split some Evening Evergreen ribbon and looped it through the tag hole. I looped a short length of Garden green ink through the hole and tied the ribbons with Linen Thread, making a bow. I adhered the tag to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped three large leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf stamp set in Garden Green ink on Basic White. I stamped the veins over the leaves in Evening Evergreen and punched them out with the Tropical Leaf punch. I adhered them to the card with dimensionals, double layering the dimensionals at the leaf tips where they adhered directly to the card (instead of the tag). I stamped the sentiment in Garden Green on a Balmy Blue panel and cut it out with the small oval die from the All That dies. I adhered the label to the tag with glue dots and finished it with a blue pastel iridescent gemstone.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf stamp set in Garden Green and the veins in Evening Evergreen. I covered the leaf with a mask and stamped the small leaf and stem in Garden Green. I stamped the small leaf veins in Evening Evergreen before removing the mask. I adhered a strip of embossed DSP to the bottom and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Tropical Leaf bundle is a simple set that really makes nice tropical cards! I’m really surprised that the simplicity of the three stems and leaves make such pretty cards. And the sentiments are great – the casual font has so much energy and stamp so well. So we’ll say bye bye to retiring colors and enjoy the Online Exclusives until the new catalog debuts next week!

Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels Hello Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels bundle is a sweet sentiment stamp set and Pick A Punch bundle and right now it comes in both cling and photopolymer! I paired it with the sea side images in the By The Bay designer series paper that I cut out with the Seaside Bay dies for a hello card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of By the Bay 6″ x 6″ Night of Navy specialty designer series paper to the front of a soon to be retired Sahara Sand card stock – I love the iridescent waves in this design. I adhered another panel to a Sahara Sand mat and stamped three flying seagulls from the Waves of Inspiration cling stamp set in Night of Navy ink. I wrapped Linen Thread around the panel three times and made a knot and adhered it to the card base with dimensionals.

I cut a large sea bird from the By The Bay 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper using the die from the Seaside Bay dies and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I also cut three small shells using the shells die and adhered them with glue dots.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels cling stamp set in Night of Navy ink on Sahara Sand card stock and trimmed the end with the Happy Labels Pick A Punch. I adhered it to the card with glue dots and finished the card with flat pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels stamp set in Balmy Blue ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of By the Bay DSP and adhered it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

While the Stampin’ Up! Happy Labels bundle is retiring next month, the photopolymer stamp set and Happy Labels Pick A Punch will be carrying over into the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. The cling stamp set and the wonderful By the Bay 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper is retiring.

Here’s a sneak peek of this beautiful bundle, along with the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper that will also be available You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of the pretty Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Petal Pink mat and adhered it to a Soft Sea Foam card base, all with liquid glue. That gorgeous DSP does all the work!

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Versamark Ink on Petal Pink and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut it out with the small Scalloped Contours label die, using the two step die cutting method so that it was shorter.

I adhered a loopy white baker’s twine bow to the card with a glue dot and adhered the label over the bow with dimensionals. I finished the card with Iridescent Pearls.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Simple Hello Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle is a pretty floral bundle with bold sentiments. And today’s card uses the pretty Hello sentiment with the gorgeous Favored Flowers designer series paper. This DSP also pairs the pretty pastels with a black background, so I used a Basic Black card base to accentuate the black and pink contrast! You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I cut a panel of Favored Flowers designer series paper with the third largest Stitched Rectangles die and adhered it to the edge of another panel of Favored Flowers DSP. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Basic Black card base with liquid glue.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set in Basic Black on Petal Pink. I inked it up three times and stamped it and it was still a little splotchy, so I used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to fill in some light areas. I cut it out with the second largest skinny rectangle from the Stitched Rectangles dies.

I made a loopy bow with black baker’s twine and adhered it to the card front with a glue dot. I adhered the label over the bow with dimensionals and finished it with Petal Pink faceted dots.

For the inside of the card, I fussy cut the outlines of some of the Calypso Coral flowers and adhered them to the corners of a Basic White card base with liquid glue. I trimmed the edges with paper snips and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. This leaves plenty of room to write a personal message (using black pen of course!)

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in both cling and photopolymer versions, so you can choose the version that you prefer (you can also get either version with the bundle). The pink and black Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP is so pretty and bold that your card doesn’t need much more to make a pretty card. You can choose it as a free item with a $50 order (before shipping and taxes) during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I made a hello card with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle and the beautiful Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. I used the Fresh Freesia flowers and pulled out the beautiful Fresh Freesia shimmer paper for the background! You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge in the Blog Hop and here is the pretty card sketch we are using this week:

I embossed a panel of the Fresh Freesia shimmer paper with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Fresh Freesia card base. I cut a panel of the geometric Fresh Freesia Favored Flowers designer series paper with the third largest Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to the card front.

I used the fourth largest Stitched rectangle die and cut a panel of the DSP with Fresh Freesia Flowers and adhered it with liquid glue. I used my Stamparatus to stamp the ‘hello‘ from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set several times in Blackberry Bliss ink on the right side of a Fresh Freesia panel. I cut it out with the second smallest long Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I cut two Fresh Freesia flowers with the small flower die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers dies and adhered one of them to the card front with dimensionals (save the second one for the inside of the card). I finished the card front with silver pearls.

For the inside of the card, I adhered the second die cut flower to the bottom of a Basic white panel with liquid glue. I trimmed the excess and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in cling and photopolymer. I love that you get to choose! I choose cling since I won’t need to do two-step stamping with this set. I love that the dies also cut out some of the pretty flowers in the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP. This pretty pack of paper is free with a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls Card

Good Morning! Have you seen the cute Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls Sale-A-Bration stamp set? I finally pulled mine out and used it with the pretty Happy Forest Friends designer series paper for a natural look. The owls in this set are so sweet and cute that they go great with everything! You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

The Paper Player’s Challenge PP622 is a Tag Challenge, so I’m entering today’s card in the challenge!

I adhered a panel of Happy Forest Friends designer series paper to an Old Olive mat and adhered it to the front of a Crumb Cake card base. I stamped the cute flying owl from the Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls photopolymer stamp set using Soft Suede ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the owl with Stampin’ Blends – dark and light Crumb Cake, light Daffodil Delight, light Balmy Blue and light Petal Pink. I fussy cut this owl with my paper snips. It’s not the easiest piece to cut out, so don’t examine it too close, just look at the big blue eyes and say ‘Awww’.

I used a blending brush to apply Balmy Blue ink to the center of a Basic White panel and cut it out with the second largest circle in the Stylish Shapes dies. I cut a panel of Old Olive with the second largest scalloped circle from the Layering Circle dies and adhered it to the back of the blue circle. I adhered the layered circles to the card front with liquid glue and popped the fussy cut owl on top with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink on a Crumb Cake Panel and cut it out with the small angled Tailor Made Tags die. I cut the reinforcer from Old Olive and adhered it to the tag. I looped a short length of stitched burlap ribbon through the hole and tied it off with white baker’s twine, making a bow. I adhered it to the card with dimensionals and finished the card with pastel iridescent gems.

I kept the inside simple by trimming the bottom of a Basic White panel with Happy Forest Friends DSP and adhering the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal

The owls in the Stampin’ Up! Adorable Owls stamp set are so cute and sweet! This is one of the free Sale-A-Bration items you can get for free wit a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Alphabet A La Mode Hello Card

Good Morning! One of the upcoming Sale-A-Bration items is a huge pack of designer series paper called Dandy Designs. This is an item that you can choose for free with a $100 order! I chose three different warm colored patterns to use with the awesome Stampin’ Up! Alphabet A La Mode dies for a simple hello card. You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a strip of plaid Dandy Designs designer series paper to a Calypso Coral mat and adhered it to a floral panel of the DSP. I adhered these to another Calypso Coral mat and wrapped a length of Linen Thread around the panel twice and tied a loopy bow. I adhered the panel to the front of a Pale Papaya card base with dimensionals.

I cut a geometric panel of Dandy Designs DSP with the large label die from the Something Fancy dies (also available January 5) and adhered it to a matching Pale Papaya die cut. I applied adhesive sheets to the back of a Calypso Coral panel and cut out the letters from the Stampin’ Up! Alphabet A La Mode dies. I peeled off the adhesive sheets and adhered the letters to the label and adhered the label to the card with dimensionals.

I cut the small daisy flower die from the Dainty Delights dies from Calypso coral and adhered it to the card front with a glue dot. I added a Crushed Curry Glossy dot to the center of the flower to finish the card. I love the way this die cut flower reflects the flowers in the DSP!

For the inside of the card, I trimmed the bottom of a Basic White panel with a strip of the floral Dandy Designs designer series paper and adhered the panel to the inside of the card. This leaves plenty of room to write a personal message!

The adhesive sheets work really well with the letters in the Stampin’ Up! Alphabet A La Mode dies, since they are so thin and these are good sized die cut letters at just over 1-1/2″ tall! They’re perfect for customizing cards with names or making monogram note cards. There are also doubles of common letters along with numbers and punctuation. Here are my dies:

The Stampin’ Up! Alphabet A La Mode will be available on January 5, 2023 when the new January-April 2023 Mini Catalog goes live and Sale-A-Bration begins. I’m so excited!


The July–December 2022 Mini Catalog will be retiring soon! It’s always bittersweet to see a classic Stampin’ Up! catalog take a trip to retirement. But, we’re looking forward to all the new products on their way—and we hope you are, too!
