Hi again friends,
I just received my Bikes & Blooms June Paper Pumpkin kit so I have just had time to make just one of the quick & easy cards.
I have made this card as shown in the instructions except I changed the sentiment but also included in the kit. These kits include everything you need to make 9 cards, including envelopes, ink spot and stamp set.
The bike is printed onto the card so I stamped the butterflies onto the card, the sentiment onto the label and the flowers onto the co-ordinating die cut piece. The flowers & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals, also included in the kit.
Kits are great to have on hand for a last minute card or if you just want a quick & easy card.

Hello again friends,
The dies from the Phrases & Frames Bundle (#167587) are “impression dies” which cut and emboss with extra detail, by using the Impressions Plate (#167767). These 2 frames on todays card have used these dies.
To use the dies, cut as usual with card. Then remove the base number 3 plate, so you have plates 1 & 2. Turn the die with the cut out upside down on plate 2, add the Impressions Plate on top, followed by the grey plate number 4. Roll this through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine to get a beautifully embossed piece.
I used the Hydrangea Hue card (#167688) for the 2 frames. The Basic White card front was dry embossed with the Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder (#167946). This was matted with Hydrangea Hue card and attached to the Basic White base card.
“Happy Anniversary” from the Phrases & Frames stamp set (#167581) was stamped with Hydrangea Hue ink (#167677). The frames & sentiment were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The embellishments are from the 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies (#167656).

Hello everyone,
I have made this fancy fold card for my grandson who loves cars, so I have used the retired Geared Up Garage stamp set for the car.
I stamped the car with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Copper powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was cut with a Garage Gears die (also retired).
The base card is 15cm x 29.7cm (the length of an A4 card). Along the long side, I scored this at 4.9, 9.8, 14.7 & 19.6. The Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393) was attached to the panels.
I cut another piece of Basic White card (#166781) 17 x 10cm and scored in half at 8.5. This was attached to the 1st & 4th panels. The Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper (#165901) and a piece of Basic White card were dry embossed with the (retired) Timber Embossing folder and attached to the Basic White card.
I used stamps from the Gears & Textures stamp set (#166851) for the “inside” of the card using Pecan Pie ink (#161665), Early Espresso (#147114), Crumb Cake (#147116) and Night Of Navy ink (#147110). The numbers are also cut from the Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper.
The sentiment from the Notes Of Spring stamp set (#167979) was also Copper embossed. This was cut with a Perennial Postage dies (#162607). The car and sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Hi again,
I had a cow from the Wild Bunch stamp set (#167987) left from yesterday’s card so I couldn't resist making another card with this cute set.
The image was stamped with Basic Black Hybrid stamp pad (#166648) onto Basic White card (#166781), then the circle was cut with a die from the Spotlight On Nature dies (#163580). This was attached to another circle cut with the Stylish Shapes dies (#159183) from Pecan Pie card (#161726).
The cow was coloured with the following Stampin’ Blends - Pecan Pie (#161674), Golden Glow (#167682), Bubble Bath (#161675) and Ivory (#154922).
The 2 pieces of DSP are from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393). These were attached to the Basic White card front which was dry embossed with the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing folder (#167120). This was matted with Pecan Pie card and attached to the Basic White base card.
“Hi Friend” is from the Wild Bunch stamp set and stamped with Pecan Pie ink (#161665). The sentiment and Pecan Pie card were punched with the Three Banners punch (#167050). The sentiment & circle were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Hello again friends,
How cute are the animals in the Wild Bunch stamp set (#167987) including this koala. This stamp set is the June Product Of The Month which is available to purchase with a qualifying order.
I stamped the Koala with Gray Granite ink (#147118) onto Basic White card (#166781). I coloured it with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882) and Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends (#161675). I then fussy cut the koala.
The DSP for the card front is from the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper (#167737) and I matted this with Peaceful Pine card (#167692) and attached it to the Basic White base card.
The strip of DSP is from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Paper (#167935). I used a die from the Scalloped Blooms dies (#167646) to cut the Basic Beige card (#164512) and Bubble Bath card (#161727). The Basic Beige card was dry embossed with the Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder (#168220) which will be available in the July Online Exclusives.

“Best Wishes” from the Words & Wishes dies (#167894) was cut with Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper (#165901). This was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), so all you need to do is remove the backing and attach the words to the card.
