I have a Bookmark Card using the new For The Books Stamp set as the highlight. The basics are pretty simple and offer so many ways to decorate. This is a case from Connie Stewart and is fairly quick to make.
Stampin’ Up!, For The Books, Jackie Beers
STAMPS
There are actually two different stamp sets used on today’s card. First is the new For The Books set. These stacked books on the front, along with the adorable glasses, are from the stamp set. I also added additional books on the inside as well as a fun sentiment from the set. Plus the bookmark itself has a funny sentiment that is perfectly fitting.
The front sentiment is from the Labeled With Love stamp set. This set has some “go to” stamps for me. The front one is one of those, as is the inside Happy Birthday. It is small and a nice mix of fonts. Here are the other two views of this card.
The addition of the strip of the DSP helps give the books a shelf to sit on. And I love that fun 5 star rating!
The DSP is added to all aspects of the card, including the bookmark. And this is another of the fun sentiments from the For The Books stamp set.
PAPERS
This card base was pulled from the DSP of course. The base is Basic Beige, which is a fabulous Neutral to have on hand. But the star is this Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper. Sadly it is still out of stock, but supposed to be back before long. I added a layer of Boho Blue cardstock behind the front DSP and to back the books on the front.
EXTRAS
There are several Extras today. First is the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder on the front bookmark holder. I felt this was appropriate to pair with the DSP. Next is the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch for the stack of books. I also punched from Boho Blue and cut that piece in half to act as a layer behind the White. It needed a bit of color to stand out some.
To finish off the bookmark, I used one of the Postage Stamp Dies to cut the bookmark sentiment. And added the Beige and Wild Wheat Ribbon as the ribbon pull. Finally, because there really were a lot of extras, the bling is a trio of the 2024-2026 Shimmer Gems.

I generally do not use the Kits from Stampin’ Up!. They are wonderful kits and I know people who love them for quick and beautiful cards. I saw one that spoke to me. You all know how much I love coloring! Well the Nature’s Painting Kit is so much better than I even expected. I have now joined my own Kit Fan Club .
KIT
This Nature’s Painting Kit contains fabulous floral designs. The “stamped” image that I colored comes pre-stamped in a pad. There are 24 stamped watercolor pages. These are different images and multiples of each. You also receive a package of Watercolor Pencils and a Water Painter. The photos on the booklet are gorgeous and show methods of how to start with lighter colors and then darker. But the magic is when you add the water painter to the pencil coloring! It is almost as good as embossing for the Wow! So now I am a kit person. Or at least for this style of kits.
The color choices I made for coloring was intended to copy the included flyer. It does somewhat but is not quite as vibrant. I will say that the size of the paper is roughly 6 X 4 1/2. I cut it down to 3 7/8 X 5 1/8 to add my layer and it be a regular size A2 card.
STAMPS
There are no stamps included in this kit. So I went to one of my favorite sentiment sets for this sentiment. I love how the pre-stamped page leaves this opening that is perfect for a sentiment. One of my go to sets is the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set. It doesn’t contain the general Happy Birthday but has sweet sentiments.
PAPERS
The choosing of the layers was done by holding up my finished product to the different cardstock. I landed on Granny Apple Green for the layer to highlight the leaves. And Lemon Lolly to help the lighter flowers to pop. Calypso Coral or Flirty Flamingo would have made the darker flowers stand out if you wanted.
EXTRAS
This card really did not require extras. I thought about adding some ribbon, but it seemed to detract rather than add. So after stamping the sentiment I looked for appropriate bling. The Antique Pearls were the winner. They are simply surrounding the sentiment and seem perfect for the flowers.

The cute project for today is one I somewhat cased from a fellow demonstrator, Jenny Poederbach. I will be doing another version of this soon as it was fun and needs some tweaking on my part. The best part is that it stars one of my favorite new stamp sets and is a Fun Fold of sorts.
STAMPS
This paper is gorgeous, but one of my favorite stamp sets includes this cake with the zillion candles on it! I think this is so fun for our close friends who like myself are getting to the larger numbers in birthdays. Of course that is a good thing!! The stamp set is the One More Year set. It contains fun and sweet images as well as fun sentiments.
The front sentiment is not from the One More Year stamp set. It needed a simple sentiment. I really like this bold but simple Happy Birthday from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set. The inside sentiment is from this set as well. Here is a look at the inside of the card.
This photo shows how the front birthday cake and banner pull through the circle to the inside when opened. I think this is so fun! And now for the full view of the sentiment.
This Celebrate is from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp as well as the front sentiment. I offset it so part is seen with the banner and circle still down.
PAPERS
The gorgeous floral paper with addition of gold sections is from the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is so elegant and just pretty! Of course the card base is pulled from the front floral panel. It is Blueberry Bushel. This is such a vibrant blue that everytime I pull it out I wonder why I do not use it more often.
The sweet pink check is the opposite side of the front panel. You can see that when the card opens. I added the layer of Pretty In Pink on the inside to compliment that pink check. And I love to stamp on DSP. Thankfully this check is light enough that using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink for the Happy Birthday shows up very well on the check. It was a nice way to add more of the check to the card.
EXTRAS
To create my “window” I went simple. I used the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch and then the 2″ Circle Punch for the birthday cake. For the bling, I went back to my current favorite. That is the Low-Profile Dots. These are in Pink and Gold and are almost flat. On previous cards I have only used the gold. I almost did again, but thought I would add some additional pink. There is one on the cake layer and then two are highlighting the center of two of the flowers.

I love making little treat holders to hand out to the nice people I encounter regularly. The ones I have to share today have been around for some time. Actually I had a lady message me asking exactly how it went together. So after playing with it to help her, I decided I should make some to hand out. It is a Double Treat Holder. I have used it for Ghirardelli Chocolates and Tea Bags. This one has gorgeous DSP to make it extra special.
I have the directions at the bottom of the post. They are pretty simple to score and fold.
STAMPS & DIES
This sweet stamp is is from the Mixed Labels Bundle. And the adorable Die cut shape is made using one of the matching Dies. I love the stitching with detail around the edge. Plus the new shape is wonderful. On The opposite side of the treat holder I added a little note card. The sentiment from it is from the fabulous So Sincere stamp set. It is definitely one that is a keeper for some great sentiments.
The the opposite side of the treat holder is the exact same size as the front. You could add a second treat there in place of a note. Here is a view of that side.
PAPERS
This gorgeous paper is the Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper. It is back in stock now so Woohoo!! The gold marbling is on one side with red, cherry cobbler, pretty in pink, white, and gold. The stamping was done on good ol’ Basic White. So a simple supply project as well.
EXTRAS
The Cherry Cobbler and Gold ribbon used to hold the sides together is from Holiday Catalog that just went out. It is still available but with low inventory. For the bling I used the Gold Textured Adhesive Dots. There are three different sizes and I used the middle size to add a touch of gold to the main sentiment.
DIRECTIONS
The treat holder uses a 6X6 piece of DSP. Use your Simply Scored Scoring Tool. I have drawn a line down the center of mine from the 6″ mark using a Black Sharpie. This makes the steps for this project much easier. So….place the DSP on the scoring tool with a point at the 6″ mark and the other lines up in the 6″ line. You have a diamond shape. Score at 4 1/2 and 7 1/2. Make a turn in either direction and score at 5 1/4, 6, and 6 3/4.
Fold and burnish on all of the score lines. Decide which paper you want to be on the outside front folds, like where my sentiment is. Now fold the two side score folds towards the center. They overlap a bit and that is perfect. Then fold the three center scores with the center one making a mountain. Fold the other two so they meet to make the shape. There is no adhesive needed! Here is a view of the side so you can see those center score lines as they need to fold. Let me know if you have any problems.

Today I have a quick card using two complimentary Pear products. That is not something I would normally think of as a having a starring role. However they work wonderfully together.
STAMPS
The Penciled Pear is focal layer of the card. I have always liked it for a plain card with a pop. It is sort of a subtle stamp. And it has great sentiments included in the set. For this card I used the Direct To Rubber Technique using Stampin’ Write Markers. Granny Apple Green is the body, Old Olive is the leaf and the shadow, and Early Espresso is the stem. The set does not include matching Dies. So I fussy cut the pear to layer here.
The sentiment is one that I mentioned is included in the stamp set. I believe it is such a sweet way of saying Thank You. Having these type cards ready to go when someone is extra special, or for a friend, is always nice.
The Stampin’ Write Markers used in the Direct To Rubber Technique only are available in a color family pack. Now is the perfect time to get two packs of these. The current Sale-A-Bration Starter Kit Special includes 2 packs of Stampin’ Write Markers as a Bonus!!! Additionally you receive a special Stamp Set plus the regular $125.00 in products of your choice for $99.00. And did I mention that shipping is FREE!!! If you are interested please reach out to me.
PAPERS
This fun Pear paper is actually from the Sale-A-Bration DSP named Fruit Salad Designer Series Paper. The pack has almost any fruit you can think of included. I was surprised when I saw the pears and immediately thought of the Penciled Pear to “PAIR” with it! LOL!!!
To add a bit more to the sentiment and focal layer, I fussy cut a pear from the edge of the strip I had cut away from the sheet. It tucks perfectly under the Penciled Pear. And to help the pears stand out I layerd them on an Early Espresso circle.
EXTRAS
The circle behind the pears is the first of the extras. This was made using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. I love circle punches for quick focal layers. To add some texture, I used two different products. Beneath the circle I added a twisted bow using the Natural Tones Linen Thread from the last Mini Catalog. And of course some bling. This bling is not super shiny. It is the Earthtone Shimmer Gems which are in a few different colors. I used a trio of the green to highlight the green pears.

I have had a hard time of getting my mind wrapped around the Online Exclusives. Basically I forget to look at them. I am old fashioned and love the catalog in my hand. However, now that I have begun checking out the Online offerings, I am in love. And looking on the website is becoming normal. I shop on websites all the time.
All of this said, today’s card is made with a fabulous Online Exclusive Die set. It is the Everyday Arches. There are several of them and they all layer. That is my favorite thing! So after all of my talking, here is the card.
STAMPS
The arches are what I began with, but this amazing stamp is also a star. It is similar to a stamp set we had previously that I loved. The name is Shadowed Shapes. And that is a perfect name for these stamps. When I saw this set of two stamps I knew I had to have it. The stamp is a negative really. To add color to the detailed cut out places I went over them carefully with Shaded Spruce and Real Red Stampin’ Write Markers. I used the direct to rubber technique of using the brush tip to gently go over the stamp. In this case it was going over the fine cut out pieces.
To begin with I had to decide on the solid color of the stamp. In thinking of the strawberries as they are shown, I decided it needed to be sky blue. Balmy Blue was my choice. I inked the stamp with the Balmy Blue and then used the markers to do their thing. Of course I love that it also has an arched top. The inside of the card has sentiments from the awesome Unbounded Love stamp set.
PAPERS
There is no designer paper today. It shocks me every time. I went with the colors from the strawberries. The Real Red makes a bold arch for the stamp. To keep things somewhat simple, even though the arches are a standout, I went with Basic White for the card base.
The cutting of the Real Red arch left a perfect layer for an outline. When I really looked at it, I decided it had to go on the inside of the card. The sentiments are from the Unbounded Love stamp set. Here is the inside open view.
EXTRAS
The Everyday Arches are my star as mentioned several times. I used the 3rd and 5th from largest to cut the images. For the texture touches I add a ribbon of the Shaded Spruce Satin & Sheer Ribbon. It is wrapped around and secured on the back then a separate pieces is tied in a knot on the front. Easy Peasy! And the final touch is the bling. Even though these are not shiny bling, I love them. They are from the Regal Foiled Adhesive Dots. I chose to use both the red and the green for a different look.

It has finally dawned on me that Valentine’s Day is just a short couple of weeks away. When looking through my stamp sets I checked out the wonderful new Hearts of Elegance Bundle. The Dies are what grabbed my attention for a fun card that is a little different. It is a heart shaped card.
Here is the fun open view:
STAMPS & DIES
The Hearts of Elegance Bundle, from the new drop of Online Exclusives, contains great Valentine and Love sentiments as well as a few additional images. The Die set is fabulous! There are two large Dies, the two larger on the front of the card, and then several smaller ones. The inside White and the DSP are the same Die that doesn’t exactly fit the second largest. But it does fit the largest and has a few smaller in the layering line.
The rose is from the stamp set and did not complete as I envisioned. The single stamping of it left two much open space. So I turned it just a bit and stamped again. That worked perfectly except I should have done them in complimentary colors I believe. I did add some highlights with Stampin’ Blends. And the banner sentiment is from the set and fits perfectly across the front of the card. As does the inside Happy Valentine’s Day!
PAPERS
The color choices in paper are pulled from this gorgeous DSP. It is the Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper. The paper has been so popular that it is currently out of stock. Hopefully it will return soon. I did not realize it was out until I had already used it on the card.
To match the DSP, I used Melon Mambo as the card base and Pretty In Pink for the large layer. I believe I covered up the pink of the marbling with the banner though. The fun heart shaped card was made by beginning with a regular 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 card base folded in half. I only wanted the one corner to be connected for a unique look. To make this happen I placed the Largest heart shape Die on the front of the folded card in landscape mode. And I simply pushed one of the heart tops past the fold just a bit. It does take several run throughs on the Cut & Emboss machine to cut through the two pieces of cardstock.
EXTRAS
This gorgeous DSP really doesn’t need a lot of bling assistance. Since I shared a card yesterday that had no bling, I felt obligated to add a bit more today. The Low Profile Dots seemed perfect to add a more gold. Plus they were handy! And they help bring out the gold leaves for the rose. That was a thought that may throw some folks off. I took some creative license and added the gold leaves to the rose as an added touch of bling. When Wild Wheat retires I will be lost as I use it regularly for a gold ink color.

I love the “Fun” stamp sets that the Stampin’ Up! Artists design. They generally will find their way to my craft room. The card I am sharing today is from one of those Fun sets. This one has a variety of designs and sentiments to make you smile. And that is what card making is all about in my book.
STAMPS
This Fun stamp set is named One More Year. It has unique designs and sentiments to wish someone a happy birthday. I love this one with Wine and Cheese. You cannot go wrong here for almost anyone in their adult years.
The wine and cheese are stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored using Stampin’ Blends. For the sentiment I went with a bit of fussy cutting to get it to the size I needed for the label.
PAPERS
The DSP used today is partly due to this being a male birthday card. And I love the plaid designs. The name of the DSP pack is Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper. This is a 6 X 6, so I see a lot of different projects coming soon in plaid! I paired the plaid with Flirty Flamingo as the card base and Cherry Cobbler as the layer.
EXTRAS
There are several products under the Extra banner today. First are the layers of the wine and cheese. These are the 2″ and 2 3/8″ Circle Punches. And the sentiment label is from the Labeled With Love Punch. To add some color to the open area of that label, I used the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Marker to “Flick” some splatter onto it. Unfortunately the markers are only available as a color family pack.
To my surprise I realized there is no bling! But there is some additional texture that leans toward masculine. I used Linen Thread to tie a strip around the card and added a double knot for the bow. I love Linen Thread in place of ribbon on certain cards.

I have a gorgeous butterfly to share with you today. Generally I do not choose the butterfly sets but this one really got my attention. Part of the grab is the matching Die set and the other are the sweet sentiments that go along with the butterflies. You will be seeing more of this bundle in the near future from me!
STAMPS & DIES
This card is all about the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle! This is a fabulous bundle of images, sentiments, and some really neat Die details. My card is a bit on the simpler side of things for this first one. The big star is the large butterfly. You can see the wonderful details of the Die even in my photo. To give myself away, I actually intended to use the other side of the butterfly as I chose that paper first. But after seeing the detail and it seemed to show better on this more floral side. The detail on the reverse does not disappoint either.
To decide on the sentiment for the front of the card became a bit of a challenge. There is a lot going on for this card front. Since the butterfly is so large and I have it going from edge to edge, I opted to do the same with the sentiment. This strip of Daffodil Delight was from trimming the layer. I cut it to fit and then stamped this simple Happy Birthday.
PAPERS
The butterfly and the DSP layer are one sheet from the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper pack. As I said above, my plan was to use the other side of the butterfly. That is what is now the layer pattern. I flipped both pieces back and forth a few times until I decided to go as you see.
The flowers at the bottom of the card are from another sheet from this same DSP. I fussy cut these little flowers to add to the card. There is also a corner piece on the inside of the card. Please remember when you have a design in the corner of a sheet that it is not wasted! They work wonderfully by being cut out and added to the bottom of the inside layer. I apologize that I failed to get a photo.
EXTRAS
To add some bling to this card was debated for a few minutes. There really is a lot going on here. But I gave in to my normal way of doing things. And I am so happy I did. These gold dots are from the new Low-Profile Dots that are an Online Exclusive item. And they are really low profile! In fact they feel almost flat. This pack has both gold and a pink/coral color. You will be seeing me use a lot of these little sweeties!

The card I have to share today is a mix of new OnLine , Sale-A-Bration, and Mini Catalog products. This octagon shape is the star.
STAMPS & DIES
This focal octagon shape is from the Memorable Blooms Bundle in the Mini Catalog. There is another smaller Octagon that fits inside this one. That Die has a floral design included. For this card all I needed was the plain shape. For the inside of the shape I used one of the Elements of Text stamps that is a new Online Exclusive set. This is the long, skinny text stamp. There is a larger, more square, one also. It is stamped as the background using Smoky Slate Ink.
The pretty floral stamp in the focal layer is from the Memorable Blooms Bundle as well. It is stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink and then colored using Stampin’ Blends. My colors for the entire card are Berry Burst and Lost Lagoon. That is what I used to color the floral. And the simple, yet bold, sentiment is from the stamp set as well.
PAPERS
To create the background of this card was as simple as choosing this sheet of paper from the Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper. This sheet is what inspired the card colors. And the strip of the sentiment is the reverse side of this splattered sheet. I wanted to use it but was afraid the ink would not show very well on the Berry Burst darker color. However with the boldness of the stamp it worked just fine. I love stamping on DSP!
The card base is Berry Burst with layers of Lost Lagoon. The little strip beneath the sentiment layer was all it needed to give it some grounding.
EXTRAS
To have some additional of the berry color, I turned to one of the Free items from Sale-A-Bration. These are the Purple Sequins. Products are Free with a qualifying order. These sequins are a couple of different shades of pink. They fit perfectly with my card today.
