Diagonal Delicate Dreams Birthday Card

For a different twist I did a diagonal card with the Delicate Dreams designer series paper using the new 2026-2028 In Color Hydrangea Hue from Stampin’ Up for the card base and my flower. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Hydrangea Hue card stock (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Crumb Cake card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Delicate Dreams designer series paper (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Delicate Whispers stamp set and dies (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar stamp set and dies (2026 Advent Calendar Stampin’ Up)
  • 3” circle die (Stampin’ Up)
  • Natural Matte Dots embellishments (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Hydrangea Hue ink (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • Scoring board or scoring blade for paper trimmer
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

For you card base take a piece of Hydrangea Hue card stock and cut it on the diagonal in half from the top left to the lower right.  Then score on the 11” side at 5 ½” and on the 8 ½” side at 4 ¼”.  Fold the 4 ¼” side in and the 5 ½” down to form you card base.  From Crumb Cake cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and cut in half on the diagonal and adhere to each side.  Then with the floral piece from the Delicate Dreams designer series paper pack cut to 3 ¾” x 5” and cut on the diagonal and adhere to your Crumb Cake pieces. 

With a white piece of card stock cut out a 3” circle with a die.  To the lower right side use the “for someone extra special” greeting from the 12 Days of Crafting stamp set and stamp in Secret Sea ink.  On a scrap piece of white card stock use the large flower stamp from the 12 Days of Crafting stamp set and stamp in Hydrangea Hue ink, use the die to cut it out.  Then use Secret Sea ink to stamp the flower center.  Use the leaf spray die and the Mossy Meadow paper from the Delicate Dreams designer series paper to cut out. 

Adhere the leaf spray to the left and upper part of your circle and then the flower to the left side of your words.  Add a few of the Natural Matte Dots embellishments to the white spaces of your circle.  Put adhesive to the upper left side of the back of your circle and adhere to the upper center of your card front, adhering only to the upper diagonal. 

For the inside of your card cut a piece of Crumb Cake card stock to 4” x 5 ¼” and a piece of white cards stock to 3 ¾” x 5”.  Adhere the white piece to the Crumb Cake and then adhere to the inside back of your card base.  Use Secret Sea ink to stamp the “Birthday wishes” greeting to the upper center of the white piece from the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar stamp set. 

A really pretty card for anyone’s birthday.

Delicate Dreams Thank You Kindly Card

I love the tan and blue color combinations of this new Delicate Dreams designer series paper from Stampin’ Up.  The florals are all pretty and then this linen paper is a great background.  The Delicate Whispers stamps and dies offer a lot of great foliage and floral options to add to the cards as well. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Crumb Cake card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Delicate Dreams designer series paper (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Delicate Whisters stamp set and dies (March 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Stitched Hexagon dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From you Crumb Cake card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  From you white card stock cut a piece for the inside 4” x 5 ¼”.  Take the Delicate Dreams designer series paper pack and find the Mossy Meadow piece, the Crumb Cake linen piece and the floral with the smaller flowers.  From the Mossy Meadow piece (or you can use Mossy Meadow card stock if you prefer) cut two pieces to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and another to 3 1/8” x 4 3/8”.  From the Crumb Cake linen paper cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.  The with the floral piece cut one to 3” x 4 ¼”. 

Grab your Stitched Hexagon dies and find the one that measures 1 ½” and the next one up that measures 1 ¾’ wide.  From scrap white card stock cut the 1 ½” label and from your Mossy Meadow paper cut one of the 1 ¾” wide ones.  Adhere them together.  Then cut one of the angled ends off to make your label.  Use the Mossy Meadow ink and the “Thank you kindly” greeting stamp from the Delicate Whispers stamp set and stamp to the right side of your label, pointed end, with the top of the stamp lining up with the point. 

Take a scrap piece of the floral paper and the small flower and leaves die and cut out two of the crumb cake flowers from the paper, or you can stamp and color your own.  Take one of the flower you cut out and adhere to the left side of your label. 

Now lets get the card put together.  Start with adhering your linen piece to one of the two larger Mossy Meadow pieces and then adhere that to the front of your card base.  Then adhere the floral piece to the smaller Mossy Meadow piece and adhere that in the center of your linen paper leaving about ½” on all four sides.  Now adhere you label in the lower left portion of your card over the floral paper and lining up on the outside Mossy Meadow edge. 

For the inside of the card adhere your second large Mossy Meadow paper to the inside and then the white card stock piece on top of that.  Now adhere the second cut out flower in the lower left corner of the white card stock.  If you would like to stamp a greeting on the inside feel free to do so, I didn’t as my friend has asked for some thank you cards that don’t have inside greetings and this is for her.

What a lovely card, I love these color combinations, and a great thank you card for anyone.
