This simple cards uses the gorgeous fern die cut from the Beautiful Motifs dies. I cut it three times, twice on each side of Olive Two-Tone cardstock and once on Old Olive Seasons of Elegance DSP. If you look closely, you can see a few gold flecks on the Seasons of Elegance DSP.
I stamped the sentiment with Old Olive on the front of this Very Vanilla panel, attached a Basic Beige ribbon bow, and then added the panel to the front of a Mossy Meadow card base. Honestly, I love the simplicity and beauty of this card. I hope that you do, too!

This card was inspired by another demonstrator's card. To me, it looks like three windows looking out at the sea.
To create this card, I cut three arches out of one piece of the boating scene of Beautiful Gallery 6"x6" DSP (cut down to 5.25"x4"). I then cut three arches of the next larger die out of Pecan Pie cardstock, then layered the arches onto the back of the DSP. Three Pressed Flower Motifs gems finished off the card front which was adhered to a Very Vanilla card base.
Not shown, but I added a strip of the DSP to the inside of the card to finish it nicely.

The Beautiful Gallery suite is absolutely gorgeous! I enjoyed making this simple card with a floral pattern from the Beautiful Gallery 6"x6" DSP framed with Very Vanilla die cut with the Gallery Blooms dies.
I will be featuring this suite in my July classes, at my home or yours. I am also going to be working on a heritage album with this suite. Is anyone interested in joining me?

If you love Stampin' Up! products, did you know that you could receive a (minimum) 20% off all of your orders if you became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator? Many people join as hobbyists just for the discount. Tomorrow is the last day to receive $165 in products with the starter kit price of only $99.
Stampin' Up! is hosting our first ever virtual album retreat, a Month by Month 24-page workshop (12 two-page 12"x12" layouts), online July 16-18 (with videos available after the live demonstrations), and you can purchase this amazing product bundle (which also automatically registers you for the event) starting today!
This concept was a staple with Close To My Heart that has been carried over to Stampin' Up! I have participated in two of these past events, and they were totally worth the experience! Almost everything comes precut and packaged like kits. You will learn so many new techniques and creative ways to use the included products (which I suspect will include a new stamp set).
Anyone who purchases the virtual retreat through me will also get supplies and instructions a bonus opening and closing page for their albums as one of my appreciation gifts. You can use Stampin' Rewards toward the purchase, and you will earn Stampin' Rewards on this purchase.
Please let me know if you have any questions! Learn more with this PDF and view the sample layouts HERE. I hope you'll join me!
Have you seen our 6"x8" mini album and Memories & More pocket cards? Did you know that you can use these pocket cards on cards? We sell a package of 10 each (20 total) white cards and envelopes that fit the 3"x4" and 4"x6" pocket cards perfectly!
I used the new Celebration Expressions cards paired with the Layered Thoughts stamp set and black ink. For both cards, I fussy cut elements from another card (or with the balloons, from the part that is covered by the stripes). For the large card, I distressed the edges of the pocket card with Berry Burst ink using the direct-to-paper technique to give it a little more interest.
I love how I can use "card" products for memory keeping and "scrapbooking" products for cards!
This simple card leans on the new In Colors cardstock for interest. I cut each strip 4"x1.25" and stamped "Thank" in black on each color using the Layered Thoughts stamp set. (This is a great versatile sentiments set!)
I stamped "you" on a scrap of white and cut it out, dovetailing each end and adding Cloud Cover In Color Flat Pearl Gems.
This one came together quickly and will be added to my stash because you never know when you will want to show someone appreciation and gratitude!
This no-stamping card uses the dies from the Floral Impressions bundle and the new In Colors, Strawberry Slush, Timid Tiger, Darling Duckling, Cloud Cover, and Secret Sea.
Not only do the dies cut out the pieces, but they also have pieces that dry emboss, which is the texture you see on the flowers and leaves.
For more interest, I tore the Cloud Cover cardstock strips and embossed the Secret Sea cardstock with the 3D Soft Waves embossing folder.
The inside is currently blank until I decide what I will use it for.
Participants in my May card class created this card with the Impressions Abloom stamp set, dies, and DSP. We used colored cardstock (Fresh Freesia and Pretty in Pink) for the flower bases and then stamped the outlines with Petunia Pop and Strawberry Slush.
The oval cut out is part of the coordinating dies. The sentiment is from the (retired) Labeled with Love stamp set.
When you make your own cards, be sure to decorate the inside and the coordinating envelope! Simple stamping adds a lovely accent.
This weekend, I was able to finish our Easter layout that I started at my scrapbooking class last month. It needed a few more die cut flowers to be finished.
It may not be obvious, but I also used the coordinating Floral Impressions 12"x12" DSP (the back sides of two patterns, not the floral side).
The finishing touches are (retired) blue and yellow Tinsel gems.
