Quick card with the Violet Dreams DSP

July 14, 2026

Here’s the second card I made featuring the Violet Dreams suite. I shared it during last week’s video.

It showcases the pretty Violet Dreams DSP seen here. There are 3 pieces from the DSP on this card: the violets die-cut, the striped frame and the green DSP strip. This DSP has 2 sheets of die-cut ephemera included in the package. I love that; it opens up so many options when creating.

Besides the DSP I added the White layer behind the frame, the Hydrangea Hue ribbon and rhinestones. So quick!

Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here.

Look closely at the coordinating colors on this card. Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy to create with perfectly matching colors. It’s my very favorite thing about SU.
I used the violets as the starting point and simply repeated each color once or twice on my project for a wonderfully cohesive look.

Tip: If you struggle with color coordination pick two colors and repeat them at least once if not twice on your project. This works!

Check out the video below where I shared on more pretty card featuring DSP strips.

Under the Moon scenic card with free project sheet & video

June 4, 2024

Today I'm sharing the second project I made on last week's video – both feature the beautiful Under the Moon stamp set. It's a scene builder which can be so fun to create with.

Save

My colors include Night of Navy, Azure Afternoon, Peach Pie & Pool Party.

You might wonder what die the Navy shape is around the greeting. It's from the Unbounded Love dies – it's a small greeting shape that I cut in half and added to each side.

The large white die is from the Deckled Rectangle dies. The greeting die and the fun Navy shaped die are both from the Unbounded Love bundle seen here. It's one of my new favorites.

Here's the video of the inside of these two cards. One birthday and one sympathy – these stamp sets are both so versatile!

Under the Moon Dutch-door card with video & free project tutorial

June 3, 2024

I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's video. It features the Under The Moon stamp set which is what I refer to as a 'scene builder' set – one of my favorites to play with. It's super fun & easy to create with!

Save

See the two toned clouds & moon? I used sponge daubers and 'direct to ink' techniques for this. You can see how it's done in the video here or below.

Below is the view when the card is open.

When making a Dutch door fold you have a few choices on adding the front half. You can make your 'door' an inch or so wider than 5 1/2" so you can add the score line. Or make it 11" wide and score it at 5 1/2". Or the other option is to cut a full size card – 4 1/4" X 11", score it at 5 1/2" and cut off the section you do not want.

Details on this card:
