Beautiful Gallery Floral Vase Thinking of You Card

No Comments

I used this lovely artistic roses in a vase paper from the Beautiful Gallery suite from Stampin’ Up to make this beautifully embossed card.  I embossed the whole image which makes it look even more like a painting. 

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

  • Secret Sea card stock (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Beautiful Gallery designer series paper (2025-26 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Gallery Blooms stamp set (Stam2025-26 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Beautiful Motifs stamp set (2025-26 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • VersaMark Ink
  • Copper Clay ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Clear embossing powder
  • Heat gun
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From your Secret Sea card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half.  With your white card stock cut a piece to 4 3/16” x 5 7/16”.  Cut a piece of Basic Beige to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” for the inside of your card.  Take your Beautiful Gallery designer series paper and find the roses in a vase piece.  Trim it down to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” which basically just trims the edge of the rose on each side. 

Take your trimmed roses piece and put onto a piece of scrap paper.  With your VersaMark ink, ink up the whole piece of paper and then cover in clear embossing power, then tap off the excess and use your heat gun to melt the embossing powder to a clear finish.  Adhere this (I suggest with a lot of adhesive all over as it bubbles a bit which you can see with mine) to your piece of white card stock and then to the front of your card base. 

Take a white piece of scrap paper and stamp in Copper Clay in the “Thinking of You” greeting from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set.  Trim around your greeting for form a strip about ½” wide.  Trim a scrap strip of Secret Sea card stock to 5/8”.  Trim the end of each with a pair of scissors to form your banner end and then adhere together and trim off the flat end at about 2 ¼” and adhere to the front lower left side of your card front.

For the inside of your card the white seemed awfully bright, so I used Basic Beige.  Take your Basic Beige piece and your Copper Clay ink and stamp the “I’m here for you always” greeting from Beautiful Motifs in the upper center and then from the Gallery Blooms stamp set use the small bouquet of roses stamp and stamp in the lower left corner.  Adhere to the inside of your card. 

This is such a beautiful artsy card that I can’t wait to give to someone.

Beautiful Gallery Celebrate Birthday Step Card

No Comments

I love the way this card turned out, a floral step card made with the Beautiful Gallery Suite from Stampin’ Up.  The colors are lovely and it is just so pretty. 

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

  • Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Beautiful Gallery designer series paper (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Beautiful Motifs stamp set (Stampin’ Up)

  • Pressed Flower Motif embelishments (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From your Mossy Meadow card stock cut a card base to 4 ¼” x 11” and score at 2”, 4” and 7 ½” and fold the big section together and the smaller section together to form your step card base. 

Grab your Beautiful Gallery designer series paper and find the Mossy Meadow piece with the white roses and the painted looking piece of Mossy Meadow paper.  From the painted piece cut a piece to 3 ¼” x 4” and another to 1 ¾” x 4” and adhere each to the front of your steps. 

Now get your Oval Flat End dies and cut the following:

               White Card Stock: 2 3/8” x 3 13/16”

                  2 13/16” x 4 ¼”

                                                                  3 ¾” x 5 ¼”

               Mossy Meadow Card Stock:      2” x 3 7/16”

3 ¼” x 4 13/16”

               Mossy Meadow Floral:             2” x 3 7/16”

                                                                 3 ¼” x 4 13/16”

For the back step, take the 3 ¾” x 5 ¼” white piece and adhere the 3 ¼” x 4 13/16” floral designer series paper piece and adhere to the front of the large step.  Then take the 2 3/8”x 3 13/16” piece of white and the small floral designer series paper piece and adhere together and then adhere to the front of the small step.  Take the 2” x 3 7 1/6” piece of Mossy Meadow and adhere to the back of your small step piece, it just gives is a bit more support for your card to stand well.  Now from Mossy Meadow die cut out a label base and from white card stock cut out the top of your label.  Stamp in Mossy Meadow ink the “Celebrate” from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set.  Adhere to the lower portion of your front step with pop dots.  Use the Pressed Flower Motif embellishments to decorate each end of your label.

Then take the Mossy Meadow piece that is left and the white piece and adhere to the white to the Mossy Meadow.  With your Mossy Meadow ink and a “happy Birthday” greeting stamp and stamp in the upper portion of the white.  Adhere to the back of your card. 

This gives you a beautiful birthday card for one of your girlfriends of family members.

Painterly Pears Double Z-Fold Card

No Comments

I am in love with this card, the colors go together so well (even though they are University of Michigan colors, Michigan State fan here 😊).  All of the paper in this Painterly Pears designer series paper pack from Stampin’ Up is just so elegant.  And it is a different take on a Z-Fold card which is one of my favorites. 

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

  • Secret Sea card stock (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Darling Duckling card stock (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Painterly Pears designer series paper (2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
  • Perfectly Pears stamp and dies set (Stampin’ Up)
  • Low-Profile Sparkle Dots
  • Secret Sea ink (2025-2027 In Colors Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Secret Sea card stock cut your card base to 5 ½” x 8 ¼” and score at 2 ¾” and 5 ½” and fold into a “Z” shape.  With your Darling Duckling card stock cut a piece to 2 ¾” x 8 ¼” and score at 2 ¾” and at 5 ½” and fold into the same “Z” fold. 

In your Painterly Pears designer series paper pack find the Secret Sea color pear paper, the Darling Duckling pear paper and the Darling Duckling checker paper.  From the Secret Sea pear paper cut three pieces to 2 ½” x 5 ¼” and adhere to each of your three Secret Sea card base pieces.  Then cut two of the Darling Ducking pear pieces to 2 ½” x 2 ½” and adhere to the first and second panels of the Darling Duckling “Z” fold.  From the Darling Duckling checker designer series paper cut a piece to 2 ½” x 2 ½” and adhere that to the third panel of the Darling Duckling card stock. 

To adhere your “Z” folds together, center the Darling Duckling “Z-fold” paper into the Blue “Z-Fold” and then measure to make your yellow hang out about half way and making your card measure 4” or so across and then adhere down, making sure you are only putting adhesive on the part that hits the blue “Z”. 

Cut a piece of 2” x 2” Darling Duckling card stock and with your “A good friend is a gift” greeting stamp from the Perfectly Pears stamp set and Secret Sea ink stamp and then adhere to the back panel of your Darling Duckling “Z-fold”.  On a small scrap piece of Darling Duckling and your Secret Sea ink stamp the “Friend” greeting and use the small label die from Perfectly Pear dies to cut it out, or cut out by hand.  Adhere the Friend label on a angle in the lower right corner of your front Darling Duckling panel and then add three small Low-Profile Sparkle Dots that come in the Perfectly Pears suite around on that front panel. 

This is such an elegant card for any friend to show you care!

Tent Fold Stepper Peaceful Garden Card

No Comments

I have seen a few of these online as ideas, but this one came from my Stampin’ Up upline in one of her Thursday night Facebook lives at My Stamping Style.  It was a really cute design that I hadn’t seen before, but I have now saw a few times since.  It folds into a normal 4 ¼” x 5 ½” card but forms a stand for a 4” x 4 ¼” card with a front step.    I used the Peaceful Gardens to make this charming card. 

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

  • Secret Sea card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Cloud Cover card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Peaceful Garden designer series paper (Stampin’ Up)
  • Secret Sea ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Hues of Blue flower embellishments (Stampin’ Up)
  • Scoring board or paper trimmer scoring blade
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

With your Secret Sea card stock a piece to 4 ¼” x 11” and score at 4”, 8”, 9” and 10”.  From the 4” end, fold the 4” to the 8” score, fold the 9” score up and then the 10” score down.  With your Cloud Cover card stock, cut two pieces to 3 7/8” x 4 1/8” and a piece to 7/8” x 3 7/8”.  From the Peaceful Garden designers series paper, find the white hydrangea paper and cut a piece to 3 ¾” x 4”.  Then find the Cloud Cover paper and cut a piece to ¾” x 3 ¾”. 

Adhere one of the pieces of Cloud Cover to the front of the 4” x 4 ¼” fold up piece and then adhere the white hydrangea designer series paper.  Adhere the 7/8” x 4 1/8” piece of Coud Cover to the front of the step and then the Cloud Cover designer series paper piece to the front of that. 

Take a spare piece of Cloud Cover card stock and the small label from the Peace on Earth dies and cut a label, and then with the larger label die cut one from Secret Sea, adhere together.  From white card stock die cut the dove with wings up.  With the Peace on Earth stamp set and your Secret Sea ink stamp the “Sending” and “Heartfelt Prayers” together on your label.  Adhere the dove to the upper left of your label and add one large and two small flower embellishments from the Hues of Blue flower embellishments.  Adhere the label to the front of you step about ½’ up from the bottom of your step. 

With the second piece of Cloud Cover you cut, your Secret Sea ink and the “with deepest sympathy” greeting from the Peace on Earth stamp set.  Adhere to the inside of your card. 

That makes your Peaceful Garden Tent Fold Stepper card.

From the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper, find the piece with grassy hills and flowers in the front.  Cut a piece to 4” wide and 5 3/8” tall and then cut from the left in at 2 5/8″ which gives you the two pieces for the front of your card. 

With a scrap piece of the tan colored paper cut a smaller size banner die (or you can cut a strip and you can trim the end).  Then from the Cinnamon Cider the next size up die.  Take two nature or floral dies and cut two larger size from the tan colored card stock and two of the smaller from the Cinnamon Cider card stock.  On the tan smaller banner stamp the “hello” stamp from Beautiful Motifs stamp set in Cinnamon Cider ink.

Adhere to full birds on a branch that you created to the front of your card.  Then with the ¾” x 2 ¾” white piece and a “Birthday Wishes” greeting stamp and Wisteria Wonder ink, stamp the greeting.  Adhere the white piece to the Wisteria Wonder piece and then to the Secret Sea piece and adhere to the lower right corner of your card.

For the inside of your card, stamp the “I can’t think of a nicer person to celebrate!” stamp with Wisteria Wonder ink toward the top center.  Adhere your smaller bird on a branch piece to the lower left corner.  Adhere this to the Wisteria Wonder and then to the inside of your card.
