A WOW card with Swirled Designs

April 7, 2026

This is one of those cards you will not soon forget; the Swirled Designs bundle is so cool!

See what I mean? The colors include Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce & White. Striking, bold colors for a celebratory card. The stars are die-cuts from the Swirled Designs dies.

The Swirled Designs bundle was a sleeper; not many people have used it. But once you do…. you’ll want to use it over and over. See the stamp set here and the dies here. You can choose the bundle here, but the dies are discounted which makes it almost the same cost to order separately. It’s on the Last Chance list unfortunately; only available while supplies last.

For the greetings I used the Reason to Celebrate stamp set. Wonderful and specific greeting images you will love. See it here.

It’s a simple fun fold card where you score the front one extra time. I used the Garden Poetry DSP for the left side panel. That’s where I got the idea for my colors.

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs? It's always fun to play with brand new products. Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos! I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect. If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here.

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set. It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4". It's so cool!

Navy layers are:
- Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8"
You might wonder what I used for the greeting. The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them. I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends. The center piece is the Story Label punch. The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here.

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

Free Quick & Easy One Sheet Wonder template for 12″ designer paper

January 4, 2021

When I saw the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper I thought it would work wonderfully with a one sheet wonder. It's amazing and gorgeous paper that you can get FREE during Stampin' Up!'s 2021 Sale-a-Bration promotion. It starts on Tuesday, January 5th so I cannot give you a link to the products quite yet. But I can show you my cards!

Save

Aren't they sweet? All are made with just one sheet of 12 X 12" Berry Delightful paper. I needed just a few additional strips and layers along with greetings. The colors are Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, White & Flirty Flamingo.

Here's the template I created. You can watch the video below to get some tips on making these cards.

I used the Berry Blessings stamp set which is included in the free bundle along with the Sweet Strawberry set & punch bundle from the new Spring catalog.

This stamp set & Designer Paper are free with a $100 purchase during SAB.

Here's the Sweet Strawberry bundle I used. I love that the punch has 4 parts that match the stamps! (You can tell which images coordinate with the punch; they're highlighted.) And notice how the fonts in both of these sets match?!!

Save

After I made the strawberry cards I wanted to try the blueberries sheet so I made these cards with that one.

Save

I'm offering the 10 strawberry cards as a free pre-cut kit to go to anyone who chooses the Berry Delightful bundle from me during Sale-a-Bration; which runs from January 5th – February 28th. However, the supply may be limited in February.

Or if you already own the bundle and want the pre-cut kit you can order it here in my Shop.

**Kits ordered in January will ship out at the end of January and can be combined with my other monthly kits to save on shipping.

Below is the video where I share some tips on using my OSW Template:
