Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous Beauty Card

Good Morning! I pulled out the pretty Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous photopolymer stamp set for a simple floral note card. I was away and my flower gardens look a little ragged after I returned. They inspired me to make a floral card with Fall colors with this fun stamp set. 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 Design A Daydream designer series paper to a Cajun Craze card base.

I stamped the sweet sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaves and flowers across the bottom and the side in Pear Pizzazz, Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, Parakeet Party, Polished Pink, Calypso Coral, Pale Papaya, Rich Razzleberry and Orchid Oasis. I adhered the panel to a Cajun Craze mat and wrapped it with Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine and made a bow. I adhered it to the card front with dimensionals.

I used the beautiful Brilliant Wings dies to make a butterfly. I cut the two smallest butterflies from Rich Razzleberry and Crushed Curry card stock and adhered them together with liquid glue before adhering them to the card with a glue dot. I finished the card front with amber faceted gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the flowers and leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set across the bottom of a basic white panel, using the same ink colors as the card front. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set is a lot of fun to play with. I did a lot of stamping and experimented with different layouts and ink colors before deciding on this arrangement. I love the different greens with the Crumb Cake and Crushed Curry – it really captures the changing colors of Fall. I had to have some Polished Pink flowers for the pretty late bloomers and the pops of Orchid Oasis brightens the scene. And of course we need a butterfly! Enjoy the Fall gardens!!

Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous Hello Card

Good Morning! Today I have another simple card made with the wonderful Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous photopolymer stamp set. I paired it with the beautiful Sale-A-Bration Wonderful World designer series paper and the Tailor Made Tags 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 Daffodil Delight striped Wonderful World designer series paper to a floral pattern of the DSP and then adhered them both to the front of an Orchid Oasis card base.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous photopolymer stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink on an Orchid Oasis panel and cut it out with the second largest angled Tailor Made Tags die. I cut another panel of floral Wonderful World DSP with the same tag die and adhered it to the back of the sentiment tag.

I cut a length of white frayed ribbon and looped it through the tag holes. I wrapped it with a length of linen thread and made a bow before adhering the tags to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the tag with an iridescent pearl.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set in Blackberry Bliss on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Wonderful World DSP to the bottom and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The Wonderful World designer series paper is available with a beautiful coordinating floral stamp set for free with a $100 order during Sale-A-Bration. It’s beautiful and versatile, as you can see paired with the wonderful sentiments in the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set. But Sale-A-Bration is almost over – it ends on Wednesday August 31! So hurry and get it before it’s gone!

Some things are great on their own but become epic when they are paired with something else: cereal and milk, toast and butter, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. We may be biased, but our favorite combo is our stamp sets and dies—and that’s what the Perfect Partners promotion is all about! 

Stampin’ Up! created six new dies that coordinate with stamp sets in the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog and the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog.

Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous photopolymer stamp set is just that – fabulous! It has the most wonderful sentiments that are so cheerful along with a bunch of solid graphic floral images. Remember the Lovely You stamp set (another of my favorites)? Well these solid florals would go nicely with those, especially because these are larger in scale. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped one of the large daisy like flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set in Crushed Curry ink in the corners of a Crushed Curry card base. I stamped the flowers and leaves in a line across a Basic White panel. I turned the panel upside down and stamped the flowers and stems again, overlapping in the area under the label.

I stamped the round leaves in Garden Green, the large flowers in Calypso Coral, the flower sprigs in Mossy Meadow and Crushed Curry and the small flowers in Real Red. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set in Real Red on a Basic White strip.

I adhered the label to an Old Olive mat and adhered it to the stamped flowers and leaves panel, covering the overlapping stamped area. I adhered the panel to another Old Olive mat and popped it on the card base with dimensionals. I finished the card front with rhinestones.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set in the corners of the inside panel of the card base, mimicking the front of the card. I stamped the flowers and greenery in the corner of a Basic White panel, using the same color combination as the front of the card and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

This is a simple simple card with lots of colorful stamping, but the wonderful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous stamp set makes it so happy and cheerful. The stamps can be used in so many ways and the sentiments are already one of my favorites!
