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).

 Real Red ribbon was wrapped around the card front, then this was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Die

Hi friends,

The Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Die (#159168) is a set that can be used together or separately. You can use the embossing folder as normal, or you can fit the die into the embossing folder and you can cut and emboss at the same time. I have used both on this card.


For the Very Vanilla (#106550) background I embossed with the embossing folder. Firstly I inked one side of the folder with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) then ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (#149653). I chose the de-embossed side as this added the colour nicely to the leaves. This card was attached to the Pear Pizzazz card (#147104) and a piece of Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161) was added to the side. The Gold & Vanilla Satin-Edged Ribbon (#159555) was wrapped around the cardfront, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

The sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set (#161815) was stamped with Soft Sea Foam Ink (#147102) using the Stamparatus (#148187). I then re-stamped this with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed this with Clear Embossing Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046) were used to cut the sentiment and the Pear Pizzazz card underneath.

The gold leaves were cut and embossed with the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Dies. The Gold is from the Brushed Metallic 12”x12” Cardstock (#153524). 2 of the leaves and the sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Classic Matte Dots (#158146) were added to finish the card.

Fresh Cut Flowers

Hi stamping friends,

The flowers here are from the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set (#159018).




The flowers were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). This was coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Balmy Blue (#154830), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Real Red (#154899), Granny Apple Green (#154885 and Old Olive (#154892). This was cut with the now retired Fresh Cut Stems dies.

I used the Stitched Greenery Die (#155451) on the Basic White card front. This was matted with Basic Black card (#121688) and Granny Apple Green card (#154885) then attached to the Basic White base card.

A die from the Chic Dies (#158815) was used to cut the Silver Foil (#156457) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). This was attached to the card front and the flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, then cut with a Frosted Flurry die (#159811). Stampin’ Dimensionals were also used to attach the sentiment. The Silver Festive Pearls (#159963) were added to the card. Of course I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the flowers & leaves as I like that bit of shimmer on my cards.

Pretty Pop-Ups dies

Hi again stamping friends,

I have been going through some of my stamps & dies to see what I haven’t used in a while and realised the Pretty Pop-Up Dies (#159179) is one one those so here is the card I made. Very easy.




I used Basic White card (#159228) to cut with the die. I coloured the leaves, flowers and butterflies with Stampin’ Blends. The colours are Granny Apple Green (#154885), Flirty Flamingo (#154884), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Balmy Blue (#154830), Pale Papaya (#155519) & Fresh Freesia (#155518).

This was matted with Daffodil Delight card (#121680), then attached to the Basic White base card. 

“Thank You” is from Celebrating You stamp set (#158028) and stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). I used a Beautiful Shapes die (#158046) to cut the sentiment. This was attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used to add shimmer to the butterflies and the Iredescent Pearls Basic Jewels (#158987) were added to the butterfly centres and sentiment.

An easy but pretty card.

Fitting Florets Designer Series Paper

Hello friends,

The Fitting Florets 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#161814) is a limited time product. It matches with the Framed Florets stamp set (#161815) & dies (#160623) which are available now and will be in the new Mini catalogue starting in January. However, unfortunately this DSP is only available till the catalogue starts.




I cut a piece of the DSP for the background and attached this to the Basic White base card (#159228). The flowers are also from the DSP and these flowers can be cut with the Framed Florets Dies (#160623).

The leaves are also cut with the dies. I used Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the Evening Evergreen card (#155575). 

The frame and corners are cut with the Fabulous Frames Dies (#159163). 2 colours of the Rose Gold Specialty Paper (#159139) were used for these. The frame was attached to the card front with Foam Adhesive Strips (#141825) and the corners were taped to the frame.

Best Wishes is from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) and stamped with Polished Pink ink (#155712). This was cut with a Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The flowers at the bottom right were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and the other flower with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). A Heart Pearl (#159190) was added to the sentiment.

The Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used to add the shimmer to the flowers.
