Simple Lily of the Valley card; it’s a WOW! Grab the free project sheet or watch the video

August 17, 2026

I shared this beautiful Lily of the Valley card on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those cards that looks simple and easy but involves a bit of effort.

I used the Lily of the Valley dies along with the Everyday Arches dies on the vellum and the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder (it’s back in stock) for the background. White & Granny Apple Green are my colors here.

Since I did-cut the flowers from White CS I used a Granny Apple Green blends marker to color the stems on the flowers. I also curled the die-cut leaves a bit and cut one apart for the thicker stems in the center area. Watch the video to see how.

Did you notice there isn’t a greeting on the front? It’s okay to leave them off now and then. This way my card can be used for any purpose.

I didn’t even stamp one on the inside. Just a simple leaf/flower image. Click here to see the Lily of the Valley in my store. It’s wonderful.

I created a free project sheet for this card as well as my video below. Click here for the project sheet you can download or print.

Textured Notes & Botanical Textures fun fold card with video tutorial

April 14, 2025

I shared this fun fold card on last week's video. We also made it at my Team meeting in March.

Save

The back of the card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" but the center is an accordion style fold that shows off your designer paper.

I used the Dashing Designs embossing folder on the Azure Afternoon layer – it's on the Last Chance list here.

The stamp set is the Textured Notes and the DSP is the Botanical Textures. If you follow me you'll realize I cannot get enough of both of these products!

Here's the view with the card opened:

New Catalog sneak peak inspired by a fun sketch

April 10, 2025

Today I'm sharing a sneak peek of new products from the upcoming 2025 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!

Save

I chose the Florals in Bloom designer paper and the Impressions Abloom stamp set plus new gems too! My colors include Petunia Pop and Secret Sea plus white.

This layout was inspired by the following sketch. I absolutely love using sketches for my inspiration. I knew I wanted to feature the DSP but wasn't sure of my plan. This sketch fit the bill perfectly!

I made another pretty card that's totally different with this same sketch. See it here.

Save

As you can see I did not follow it exactly. My DSP measures 2 3/4" X 4" and 2 1/4" X 3". The diagonal layer (secret sea) is 1 1/8" wide.

The stamped greetings are from the 'The Right Words' stamp set. One of my new favorite greeting sets. You're going to love it!

Save

I'll share another card featuring new products tomorrow.
