Framed Violets Birthday Card

I think that the FRAMED VIOLETS Bundle and the VIOLET DREAMS Designer Paper is one of my all time favorites

INSIDE:

This beautiful card was inspired by TaraBeth, and I fell in love with it.

TaraBeth did not share her measurements so I figured out what I thought was best and am sharing that with you in case you also want to case this card.

Base: Barely Blush 5-1/2 x 8-1/2

Secret Sea: 5-1/16 x 3-7/8

Designer Paper (IN COLOR GINGHAM GALLERY) 4-7/8 x 3-11/16

INSIDE: Secret Sea 5-1/4 x 4

Basic White: 5-1/8 x 3-7/8

Designer Paper: (VIOLET DREAMS) 5-1/8 x 3/4

The flowers were colored in with the Barely Blush Stampin' Blends and the leaves were colored in with the Peaceful Pines Stampin' Blends.

The extra 3 leaves were die cut from Peaceful Pines card stock and the Framed Violets Dies.

The Oval and sentiment were both stamped with Secret Sea ink with the scalloped oval die cut using the Framed Violets Dies.

Just 3 little IN COLOR BUTTERFLIES add that special touch.

Filled With Sweetness

It's been a while since I have pulled out my HOMEMADE SWEETNESS Designer Paper

What a cute card inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest - not sure who the originator was.

Homemade Sweetness DSP

Doilies - retired, but you can use whatever doilies you find

Stamp Set: Simply Said

Die:Words of Beauty

I cut my thick white card base to 11" x 4" scored at 5-1/2" this saved on how many 4" x 5-1/2" pieces of DSP that I could get from a 12x12 sheet.

Sunset Coast

Today would have been my momma's 98th birthday if she had lived, but Jesus took her home 8 years ago shortly after her 90th birthday.

Oh how I wish that I could make a beautiful birthday card just for her again. She absolutely loved my cards and was my biggest cheerleader.

Using Melon Mambo as the card base it is perfect to send to someone like my mom who loved lighthouses as much as my dad.

I saw this card on FB on a reel so I watched it several times so that I could copy it. 

The Everyday Arches are perfect for this card and the SUNSET COAST Dies. I chose a sentiment from an old kit called TIMELESS TIDINGS.

All Aflutter

This is also a quick and easy card

Basic White card base & Basic White die cut layer 4" x 5-1/4". Die cut out with the FOREVER FLORALS die. The leaves were cut using a die from BOUTIQUE BLOSSOMS. However there is a smaller leaf die that Emma Goddard used from the Forever Florals Dies. 

I changed up the color of my butterflies from ALL AFLUTTER to Melon Mambo. 

The sentiment from All Aflutter was stamped with Black ink and die cut out with the die from forever Florals. I also added some Basic Rhinestones.

Flowering Meadow

Such a pretty card using the FLOWERING MEADOW Bundle

Colors used are Peaceful Pin and Barely Blush. Two of the new 2026-2028 In Colors.

The gorgeous embossing folder is called FLORAL SPRAY and is one of our 6" x 8-1/2" folders. I did not have any measurements so I decided to cut 1" off the front then use it for the sentiment. However I thought that it was too wide for the sentiment so I cut it down to 7/8". 

I embossed the front piece then backed it with a 4-1/4" x 4-3/4" piece of  Barely Blush.

The leaves were die cut from Peaceful Pine card stock. The stamped leaf images were stamped with Peaceful Pine Ink on Basic White. The flowers were stamped with Barely Blush onto Basic White and die cut out as well as the larger flower & the three teeny tiny flowers. I added a small Basic Rhinestone in the center of these littlest flowers, and the center of the stamped flowers were stamped with Peaceful Pine centers. Two little In Color Butterflies were also added.

This card was inspired by Lisa Stenz

Cutest Onsie

It seems like our church is "bursting at the seams" with new babies arriving on a weekly basis. I have been so short on baby boy cards that I had to search out a layout to make a fun card to have on hand. Of course I couldn't stop there - I had to make enough so that my Tuesday Stampers could make some too. (maybe that's why I am so short on these cards!!)

I used the layout by MaryEB on SplitCoast Stampers. I used a retired designer paper and the Perennial Postage dies. (Her's was designed for a baby girl)

CUTEST ONSIE is a favorite go-to for making baby cards.

A second Baby Boy card using Cutest Onesie 

I love the simplicity of this one. I used some of my retired Timeless Plaid Designer Paper for the Onesies. I found this on Pinterest by Jackie Bolhuis. It is a template that you can use again and again just change up the designer paper & stamp set.

Wild Bunch

Anytime I go to a store, especially a crafty type store, I see these little Highland Cows EVERYWHERE!!

Of course Stampin' Up! was right on trend to introduce the WILD BUNCH Stamp Set for the June Product of the Month. This is the only P-O-T-M that has sold out before the end of the month. I hope you were able to get your hands on a copy of this set.

I cased (copy and share everything) this cute card from Pinterest and Terri Gaines. I had a couple sheets left of this bee hive design and when I saw this sample on Pinterest I thought it would be perfect for my Tuesday Stampers.

I changed up the colors of the little cows to be Cajun Craze, Pecan Pie & Petal Pink

So what do you do with the 1-3/4" circles that you punch out?

Ta-Da! I had some bugs cut out from the CUTE AS A BUG designer paper so I used the circles on this next card.

The "Hello, Friend" comes from the Delicate Whispers stamp set.
