Framed Florets Stepper Card

No Comments

I was working on cleaning up my craft room and found a few cards that were cut but never put together.  This stepper card base was one of them, so I made this card which I am loving with this Fitting Florets designer series paper from Stampin’ Up.  I used the Framed Florets stamps with it.   

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

  • Night of Navy card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Balmy Blue card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Fitting Florets designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Framed Florets stamp set and dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Moody Palate Glossy Dots (January 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Scoring board or scoring blade for trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Night of Navy card stock cut a piece to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 3 ¼”, 6 ½” and 7 ½” and fold the 3 ¼” to the 3 ¼” and then the 2” end up and then the last 1” down for form your step.  Cut another piece to 3” x 8 ½” and score at 4 ¼” and old in half.  Now take your Balmy Blue card stock and cut a piece to 3 1/8” x 5 3/8”, one to 2 7/8” x 4 1/8” and a third piece to 7/8” x 5 3/8”.  From your white card stock cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 4” and one to 2 7/8” x 5”.  With the Fitting Florets designer series paper find the Night of Navy piece with the Balmy Blue Flowers and cut a piece to 3” x 5 3/8”, one to 1 5/8” x 2 5/8” and a third piece to ¾” x 5 3/8”. 

Take your large piece of Balmy Blue and adhere to the front of your back step and then the larger floral piece to that.  Adhere the strip of Balmy Blue to the front of your small step and then the floral strip to that.  Now take your 3” folded piece of Night of Navy and adhere to the front of your small step, centered, and then adhere to the back of your large step.  Adhere the medium piece of Balmy Blue to the front of that. 

Take the small piece of white and adhere the small floral piece to the bottom portion of the white leaving a small edge around three sides.  Then stamp the “Wishes for a Beautiful Birthday” greeting from the Framed Florets stamp set in Night of Navy ink in the top portion.   Adhere this to the front of your Balmy Blue.  Add a few Moody Palate Glossy Dots around the white for decoration. 

Take your floral die from the Framed Florets and cut out two of the flowers from the designer series paper, or stamp two in Balmy Blue ink and cut them out.  Adhere to the lower left corner of your piece of white for the inside of your card.  Take the “For a special person on a special day” stamp and stamp in Night of Navy ink.  Adhere your white piece to the last piece of Balmy Blue and adhere that to the inside of your card.

What a lovely birthday card for anyone special in your life.

Framed Florets Bi-Fold Card

No Comments

This bi-fold card made with Fitting Florets designer series paper from Stampin’ Up turned out really cute.  I actually had two pre-cut and scored stepper card cut but didn’t want to make two so I used it to make this bi-fold card.  It used the Framed Florets stamps and dies as well. 

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

  • Night of Navy card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Balmy Blue card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Fitting Florets designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Framed Florets stamp set and dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Pre-cut label (unknown Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Strawberry Slush and Pretty in Pink Gems
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From a piece of Night of Navy card stock, cut a card base to 5 ½ x 6 ½ and fold in half to 3 ¼” x 5 ½”.  Cut another piece to 3” x 6 ½” and fold in half to 3” x 3 ¼”.  From the Balmy Blue card stock cut a piece to 2 7/8” x 3 1/8” and another to 3 1/8” x 5 1/8”.  With a piece of white card stock cut a piece for the inside to 2 7/8” x 3 1/8”. 

Grab your Fitting Florets designer series paper pack and find the piece of Night of Navy with the Balmy Blue sprigs and pink berries.  Cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 3” and two pieces to 3” x 5 ¼” (there is a bit of a direction to this paper so you may want to pay attention).  Also find the piece that has the large floral groups on it and find the pink set and cut out with the die. 

Take the card base measuring 3 ¼” x 5 ½” and adhere one of the larger pieces of Balmy Blue to the front and then one of the larger pieces of the designer series paper.  Do the same for the inside back.  Then take your Night of Navy piece that you folded to 3” x 3 ¼” and adhere the Balmy Blue to the front and then the designer series paper piece, and adhere the white piece to the back of the inside. 

Take your small folded piece and put glue on 2” of the back and adhere to the inside of your larger piece in the center leaving 1” hanging off and 1” from the inside edge, making your card measure 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. 

Now take the pre-cut label (or any other label that works) and stamp the “Celebrate!” greeting angled on your label in Night of Navy ink and adhere with pop dots toward the upper left corner of your small front section.  Adhere the flower you die cut with po dots to the lower right corner, over the lower part of your label.  Add a few of the Strawberry Slush and Pretty In Pink Gems to decorate. 

For the inside stamp the “Wishes for a beautiful birthday” greeting in Night of Navy ink. 

There is an adorable birthday card for anyone in your life.
