Hues of Happiness Card Kit to Go or PDF tutorial


I hadn't planned on featuring this designer paper for my May card kit to go but once I received it I had to use it!  If you love florals you will enjoy this card kit!  

Stampin' Up! hit a home run with this paper!  It's filled with a beautiful variety of florals and ombre backgrounds.  

I created 10 cards using color combinations in the DSP; many of which are fun fold designs. I used the Happiness Abounds stamp set for my greetings and a few extra accents inside.

You have a few choices if you're interested in this kit.  I have the PDF tutorial only, the pre-cut kit to go with the tutorial and you can also add on the stamp set or bundle with the pre-cut kit so you have it all!  

The PDF tutorial is emailed immediately after payment and the kit is sent out via Priority Mail at the end of May

**This is the kit my monthly subscribers will receive. If you'd like to get a pre-cut kit filled with product AND a free PDF tutorial each month contact me here.  

The pre-cut kit includes the following, but be sure to opt in by May 18th:

  • 10 pre-cut cards with die-cut & punched pieces
  • 1/2 pkg of the Hues of Happiness designer paper (6" X 12")

  • Beautiful swaps with NEW products!


    We held out Team card swap Saturday and I want to share some of these awesome swaps they made. Our theme was to use new catalog products. This swap was ‘shoebox’ style so we made each other’s cards in person. I love shoebox swaps!

    Tracey created this special card using the new Peaceful Pine in color. She paired it with Cloud Cover and Berry Burst here.

    Look at that stamped panel; it is NOT designer paper! She stamped it because she loves to create with our stamps. And she finds it fun to create unique color combos too. She used the stamps from the Boutique Blossoms bundle seen here.

    The Heirloom Boutique suite is one that Stampin’ Up! says will remain current for a year! I love knowing this; it helps when you join swaps and post projects for customers.

    Here I stamped the outline image in 1st generation ink and the inside of the flower and leaves in 2nd generation ink. *that means stamped off once.

    A fabulous card Tracey!

    And here is Lori’s neat pop-up fun fold card:

    It had three layered panels that pop up from the card front. Very cool!
    It also features the Bloom Boutique suite seen here. It was hard to get a good photo of this fun fold card that she cased from Susan Campfield. The die-cuts on the front are cut from the new 2026-28 In Color Pearlized Specialty paper seen here.

    Here are the measurements:

    Card Base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    Flaps – center is 3″ X 5 3/4″ score at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 4 1/4″, 5″
    top & bottom flaps 3/4″ X 5 3/4″ score at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 4 1/4″, 5″
    Inside panel of DSP 2 1/2″ X 5 1/4″
    DSP – middle is 2 3/4″ X 2 1/2″, top & bottom 1/2″ X 2 1/2″, left & right 1/2″ X 5 1/4″, sides 1/2″ X 2 3/4″, corners 1/2″ square

    What a special card she made!

    Next is another special fancy fold card featuring the Bloom Boutique specialty designer paper; this one is created by Kim.

    She featured the All Aflutter punch bundle seen here. I’m so happy we have a new butterfly punch again!

    Her card is a spinner card using Baker’s Twine. It’s fun to set up a card like this so when the recipient removed the card from the envelope the circle spins. You simply wind it up before inserting it in your envelope. So cool!

    We added stamped & punched butterflies all over this card; using the newest In Colors. The inside polka dot DSP panel is from the new Painted Patterns 12 X 12″ DSP seen here. It’s available in most of our color families!

    Before the string is added to the crease of the fold you’ll cut the larger circle from the front. She has so many layers on her card; it can be tricky to get the circle die-cut ‘cut’ through the layers. We ran it back and forth the Cut & Emboss machine but it did cut!

    It’s an amazing card Kim!

  • Another way to feature your embossing folder…..


    Yesterday I shared one way to use ink on an embossed layer. Today I’m sharing another.

    Look closely at the card below. See how there are two different colors on this textured surface? I shared how to do this on last week’s video (see below).

    This is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder seen here. It just ran out of stock and may be a month or more before it returns. Please add your email so you’re notified when it’s back.

    Here’s how to do this: I inked the smoother side of my folder (the textured areas are recessed) with Hydrangea Hue ink. I then placed my CS on the opposite side of the folder, closed it and ran it through my Cut & Emboss Machine.
    It leaves the raised areas with the original CS color and the rest darker. It’s truly beautiful.

    Here are both cards; with the addition of Peaceful Pine:

    Simple & gorgeous! These cards will seem like you went above and beyond but they’re so simple!

    I used the Classic Labels Mix & Match Ephemera for my greetings as well as the new stamp set called Scalloped Blooms seen here.

    I also tried it with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder too.

    Below is the video tutorial where I share how to achieve this technique. I hope you watch it and try it!
