Floral Window Card

The majority of the time when I am in my craft room I am preparing for classes (Tuesdays Come Stamp With Me classes, retreats, specialty classes, etc) so I rarely spend time creating something just for me (for my card rack - to sell, or to send, etc.)

I saw this card from Peggy Noe, and I only had enough DSP for three cards, but I loved it and wanted to give it a try. The NATURES WALK DSP is on sale now for 15% off. Check out the PAPER SALE HERE

I did change up the small flower dies to use a retired one I had on hand since I did not have the HEIRLOOM BOUTIQUE DIES. I changed up the style of the ribbon as well making it a double bow instead of two separate bows. I didn't have the same "bling" for the centers of the flowers so I used what I had on hand.

The sentiment and the large. flowers came from FRAMED VIOLETS, but I used LINKED TOGETHER for the small flowers

The leaves are from two separate die sets: FERN & FLORA and BOUTIQUE BLOSSOMS, both from Pool Party card stock.

The EVERYDAY ARCHES DIES are cut from Lost Lagoon card stock.

Two new kits are available to purchase now:

If you love the Halloween season you will want to get this Witches Hat kit - these Halloween kits sell out extremely fast.

The new Product of the month, is this gorgeous fall designer paper.

Guest Stamper, Janell

My Guest Stamper today is Janell

Janell shared a couple cards that she will be featuring at her class on Saturday.

WOOLY FRIENDS stamp set - super cute! I think I might be that black sheep!! Not really - I do love the colors on this card and how the black sheep stands out

MOONLIT FLORA DSP & the FERN & FLORA Bundle. What a beautiful card.  I am not a "green" person, but this paper is stunning.

Especially when you give it the pop of color with Berry Burst.

This is a must CASE card too.

Framed Violets

There is one Stampin' Up! demonstrator that I enjoy following because she makes such elegant cards, Gail Ellis. She used to be on the Stampin' Up! Artisan team, and I can see why!!

Flowers die cut in Fresh Freesia and Highland Heather and the stamped flower is colored in with the Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends.

The background is stamped (Smoky Slate) using a retired stamp set Notes of Texture, and I chose to use the retired Mixed Labels Die for the sentiment as well as the anniversary sentiment from Elegantly Said.

Card #2 is Hydrangea Hue - I love this color!! The Anniversary sentiment is from PHRASES & FRAMES.

This third card I made for a bridal shower to add to the gift I bought for the new bride. I loved it so much that I cut enough for my Tuesday stampers, but put a Happy Birthday sentiment on it instead. The flowers are die cut from Fresh Freesia. The sentiment came from a favorite (but retired) stamp set Wonderful Moments.

For these three cards we used the FRAMED VIOLETS and VIOLET DREAMS DSP. We also used the FERN & FLORA Dies. 

Card #2 also uses the BORDERED IN BEAUTY Dies. For the center of the flowers you can use the 2026-2028 In Color Pearls (in Golden Glow) OR you can use the Iridescent Pearls and color them (if desired) with the dark Golden Glow Stampin' Blend.

Just an FYI - Gail doesn't share any details on how to make her cards. I changed up the sentiment on all of them and also changed up the die cuts for the sentiments. She does have a PDF that you can purchase, but I am too stubborn to buy one since I can pretty much figure out how to make things just looking at the photo.

Fern & Flora

Today's card features the lovely designer paper MOONLIT FLORA which coordinates with the FERN & FLORA bundle.

This card was Inspired by Ann Schach and was a big hit for my Tuesday stampers.

The designer paper does most of the work for you!! To save on the designer paper I cut my front piece 4" x 5-1/2". The card base is Thick Basic White that measures 5-1/2" x 8" scored at 4"

Depending on where you cut your designer paper, you might end up putting the sentiment on the right hand side (like Ann did).

I had to figure out the measurements so I chose to cut some Basic White at 4-1/8" x 3". With the Designer Paper being 4" x 2-7/8".

Also depending on which piece of Designer Paper that my Tuesday stampers received in their kit, the can add some little flowers (I added one), and there is a cute moth stamp that they can add if their particular piece didn't include one.

SPOTLIGHT ON NATURE and a 1-3/4" circle punch (Secret Sea card stock) are used for the sentiment and I also used the GREETINGS FOR ALL MIX & MATCH EPHEMERA PACK for the sentiment. My Tuesday stampers can choose from a variety of sentiments.

And just a few Basic Rhinestones add just the right bling!

For the month of July (2026) drawing I am giving away a $50 Stampin' Up! shopping spree with me! For any order placed with me during July I will put your name in the drawing.

Last month's drawing for the BBQ MASTERS Bundle goes to Lori M

The July Product of the Month is Begonia Belle Stamp Set (168592)

Share joy, love, and happy wishes with the Begonia Belle Stamp Set. With the two-step stamps, you can make beautiful begonias with rich dimension or use them individually to create breathtaking blooms. Stamp a lovely background image with the texture piece or mix up the sentiments to build even more meaningful messages.

Only $5 with a qualifying purchase of $75

Check out the 2 new kits that are available to purchase. Kits are great to have on hand for that last minute "oh, shoot, I need a card to go with that" situation.
