I dry embossed the Basic White card (#159228) with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406). I punched the corner of this and the Polished Pink card (#155711) with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878). The DSP was attached to the card front.

The flowers from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The card used are Polished Pink and Balmy Blue (#147007). The flowers were cut with a Blossoming Happiness Die (#158823).

The leaves were cut with Framed Florets Dies (#160623) using Soft Succulent card (#155777) and Evening Evergreen card (#155575). These cards were backed wth Adhesive Sheet (#152334) making it easy to attach these detailed leaves to the card.

“Best Wishes” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and I used Polished Pink ink (#155712). A Potted Succulent die (#154330) was used to cut the sentiment. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the label & pink flower to the card.

Hues Of Happiness

Hello again,

The Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper (#158822) has a great range of beautiful & bright designs.

I matted the 2 pieces of DSP with Melon Mambo card (#119980). I cut the Basic White card (#159228) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), with a die from the Autumn Bouquet Dies (#159837). This was adhered to the card front, then I attached the smaller matted DSP.

The flower from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). This was then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The flower was then cut with a Blossoming Happiness Die (#158824). “Best wishes” from the same stamp set was stamped with Melon Mambo ink (#147051) then cut with a Potted Succulents die 154330). The flower & sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I used Granny Apple Green card (#147014), also backed with Adhesive Sheet, for the leaves which are from the Flowers Of Home dies (#157938). I added glimmer to the flower with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

Hues Of Happiness

Hi again,

I love the vibrant colours in the Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper (#158822). This also co-ordinates with the Happiness Abounds Bundle (#158824).

I created the holes along the top of the DSP with one of the Blossoming Happiness Dies (#158823), then attached the DSP to the Daffodil Delight card (#121680). The base card is Basic White.

The flower and leaves are from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238). These were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). I used Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) to colour the flower and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) for the leaves. These were cut with the Blossoming Happiness Dies.

Happy Birthday is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763). I used VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). A Stitched Rectangles Die (#151820) was used to cut the sentiment.

The sentiment, flower & leaves were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#158130) were added to the sentiment.

TIP: Some of this designer paper has flower & leaf images that co-ordinate with the dies which makes this suite very versatile.

Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper

Hi everyone,

I have had a small break away which is always nice to recharge the batteries again.

Stampin’ Up! have a variety of Designer Papers which have co-ordinating images with dies and that’s what I have used on todays card with the Hues Of Happiness 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#158822) and the Blossoming Happiness Dies (#158823).

The Basic White base card (#159228) measures 13cmx13cm. The Melon Mambo card (#119980) has been used to matt the Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper.  All the flowers and leaves are cut with the dies from the Blossoming Happiness Dies from the DSP and attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The ribbon is the beautiful White Glittered Organdy Ribbon (#156408) and I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) to the centre of the flowers. “Best Wishes” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) and stamped with Melon Mambo ink (#147051). A Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) was used to cut the sentiment. This was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Happiness Abounds Bundle

Hello my friends,

The Happiness Abounds Bundle (#158824) includes the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) and the Blossoming Happiness Dies (#158823) and have been used here on this card.

The flower and leaves are from the stamp set. I heat embossed the flower with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The leaves were stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) onto Soft Sea Foam card (#147012). The flower and leaves were cut with the Blossoming Happiness dies. I lightly daubered the flower with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214).

Best Wishes, also from the same stamp set was stamped with Orchid Oasis ink and cut with a Sending Die (#159271).

The base card is Basic White (#159228) with the Orchard Oasis from the 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper (#159253) for the card front. I cut the left edge of the rectangular Basic White card with another die from the Blossoming Happiness Dies. I lightly coloured this card using a Blending Brush (#102845) and Orchid Oasis ink.

I adhered Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the Gold Foil (#132622) before cutting with dies from the Beautiful Shapes dies (#158046), then dry embossed these with the Splatters folder from the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folders (#157980).

The leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The reverse of the DSP was attached under the sentiment and the sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Holiday Rhinestones were added to the card.

Stylish Shapes Dies

Hello stamping friends,

The Stamparatus (#148187) is such a versatile tool for stamping and I have used it to stamp these images for perfect positioning.

The green foliage from the Nature’s Prints stamp set (#158793) were stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104). The flowers from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) were stamped with Pale Papaya ink (#155670). Another advantage of using the Stamparatus is you can re-stamp your image to make it darker, especially with lighter inks, as I have done with the Pale Papaya ink.

I used a Square die from the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) to cut the centre of the stamped Basic White card (#159228). The outside piece was taped to the Pale Papaya card (#155669) which was dry embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (#158804). The inside square was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Pale Papaya card was matted with Pear Pizzaz card (#131290), then attached to the Basic White base card.

The Pale Papaya circle was also cut with a Stylish Shapes Die then embossed with the Fern embossing folder. I Daubered Pale Papaya ink (#155670) over the embossed fern.

“Best Wishes” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and stamped with Pale Papaya ink. The label die to cut this is also from the Stylish Shapes dies. The sentiment was attached wth Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds (#159185) were added to the card.

Happiness Abounds stamp set

Hi again my friends,

By the time you see this, the new Annual catalogue should be live. There are so many awesome new products available as well as many of the favourites carrying over from the previous catalogue. I have already made a number of cards using the beautiful flowers from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) and the co-ordinating Blossoming Happiness Dies (#158823) which of course are available together in the Happiness Abounds Bundle (#158824).

I stamped the flowers with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with the Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). These were then cut with a die from the Blossoming Happiness Dies. The flowers were coloured with Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends (#154887) and Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends (#155518). I also used the Color Lifter (#144608) to remove some of the colour for more depth on the lighter flower.

The slots were cut in the Basic White card (#159228) using another die from the Blossoming Happiness dies, then I dry embossed the card with the Stripes from the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder (#157980). This was matted with Highland Heather card (#147010), then attached to the Basic White base card.

I backed the Gold Foil (#132622) with Adhesive Sheets (#152334) before cutting the leaves with an Artistic Die (#155371). This was attached to the cardfront. The flowers were attached using Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The gold trim is from the Simply Elegant Trim (#155766).

“Best Wishes” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and stamped with Highland Heather ink (#147103), then cut with a Sending Die (#159271). This was attached using the Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

PLEASE NOTE: From 3rd May 2022 you can only order from the new 2022-2023 Annual catalogue and the January-June 2022 Mini catalogue. The mini catalogue is still available till 30th June 2022.

2022-2024 In Colors

Hello stamping friends,

Todays sneak peek is the new 2022-2024 In colors. These vibrant colours are so beautiful. The colors are Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, Tahitian Tide, Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party.

I stamped the flowers from the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). These were coloured with the Stampin’ Blends - Starry Sky (#159222), Sweet Sorbet (#159224), Tahitian Tide (#159221) and Orchid Oasis (#159223). The leaves were coloured with Parakeet Party (#159220). After colouring the flowers I then used the Color Lifter Stampin’ Blend (#144608), which removes some of the colour which gives more depth to the flowers. This is the first time I have tried this and was happy with the results. I used Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) to colour the centre of the flowers.

The Parakeet Party DSP from the 6”x6” 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper (#159253) was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). Basic White card was placed on top then the flowers and leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and also stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. A die from the Sending Dies (#159271) was used for the sentiment and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots (#159186).
