Nothing says summer quite like a tall cold glass of lemonade. As you can see in my circle swing card, lemonade is just one more beer alternative you can do with the Brewed For You stamp set.
My card starts with a Daffodil Delight card base. I then added some Design A Daydream DSP to the card front. (If I had enough left over, I would have used the Tea Boutique DSP – but the kites were cute, too.) As my focal point to my circle swing card, I had stamped the glass and lemonade onto a Basic White circle that had been die cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies. This was backed by a scalloped circle of Daffodil Delight CS.
Lemon wedges from the Cup of Tea stamp set were stamped in Daffodil Delight ink onto the circle and onto scraps of Basic White CS. There is a coordinating die, but I cut out the lemons with my paper snips. To give my glass a little dimension, I outlined the glass with a Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blend and then spread it out using the color lifter. (see how I do this in the circle swing card video below)
Inside the card is a layer of Basic White CS with a strip of Tea Boutique DSP on the right side. The sentiment was stamped in the center in Daffodil Delight ink (just half the sentiment on the stamp – watch the video to see how I do this). Lemons were stamped in the lower right corner, in Daffodil Delight ink as a finishing touch.
Stampin’ Tip: I did a partial die cut, with the layering circles dies, to make my card have a half circle that flips to the card front. It’s not necessary for this fold, but I do show you how to do this in my video below.

Hi, Stamper. You are going to be so surprised how easy this shaker card is!
The window frame for my shaker card was made using the Stitched Rectangle Dies, I chose two sizes and cut them at the same time, out of Heart & Home DSP using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I adhered a window sheet to the back of this frame (cut to size) and then added Foam Adhesive Strips to the back of the frame. This created the well, that I poured the glitter into.
I then stamped my scene, for my shaker card, onto a layer of Basic White and adhered that to the back of the frame. This was then adhered to a Coastal Cabana card base. The pelican, from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set, was inked with the Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped onto a scrap of Basic White CS. To die cut this out, I used the Waves Dies, while the fence was die cut from Crumb Cake CS using the Horizon Dies.
Inside the shaker card I created a scene on a layer of Basic White CS that is matted in Pool Party CS. I got the calm water by stamping the wave upside down. The pelican was again inked with Stampin’ Write Markers, but this time I colored it with Stampin’ Blends. Pool Party ink was used for the sentiment, while Smoky Slate ink was used for the birds.

Hi, Stamper. Welcome back to my blog. I’m so glad you are here! Today’s card is a Starburst card that I made during my LIVE on Monday. The YouTube video is linked below.
My card starts with a Night of Navy card base – 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. The next layer is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Real Red CS. I created my starbust on a 3-3/4″ x 5″ layer of Basic White CS.
This starburst was created using strips of the Hey Sports Fan DSP. I cut the strips into 1-1/2″ x 7″ for this card and then cut them diagonally. The first strip was the one that went from upper right to lower left, I then laid down the ones adjacent, working my way o the outer edges. After they were all down, I turned it over and cut off the excess from the backside. I put the adhesive on the Basic White layer (when I had the adhesive on the strips, there was glue on the part hanging over). Using Stampin’ Seal, I adhered this layer to the card front and then added my decorations with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stampin’ Tip: I have made future ones using 1-1/4″ x 6″ strips and that worked better. Especially because some of our paper is 6″ x 6″ and it’s half of our 12″ x 12″ – less waste.
Inside the starburst card is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Very Vanilla CS. I adhered the strip of tickets to the left side of that layer and did the stamping in Real Red ink.

Hi, Stampers. Happy Monday! Today I am sharing a sliding peek-a-boo card. I tried to keep it simple. Please watch the video for best instructions – it’s kind of hard to put into words, just typing it out.
The main base of my card starts out with a piece of Thick Basic White – 4-1/4″ x 8-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. An additional piece of Basic White is cut to 3″ x 4-1/4″, scored at 2-3/4″ on the short side (this is the moving piece) and a 3rd piece is cut to 4-1/4″ x 5-3/4″, scored at 5-1/2″ on the long side (this is the back of the card).
The front of the card is decorated by adding a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ layer of Misty Moonlight CS. Using the 2-1/8″ circle die, I die cut a hole in the Misty Moonlight layer and both the inside and outside of the Basic White card base – all in the same spot. Using a piece of Pool Party ribbon, I tied a bow in the middle and wrapped the ends around 2-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Pool Party DSP. The DSP was then added to the left side of the Misty Moonlight layer.
Using the 2-5/8″ scalloped circle die, I cut a scalloped circle from Misty Moonlight CS and a second one from Glimmer Paper. Next. I used the 2-1/8″ (same one I used to cut the holes in the card base) to die cut the center out of each scalloped circle. This left me a “ring” to decorate around the holes in the card front and inside circle.
The 4-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Misty Moonlight layer is adhered to the front of the main card base (the extra hangs over to the left). Using tear and tape, the 4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Basic White CS is adhered to the back of the main card base on the 1/4″ end on the right (the extra hangs over to the left. The moving piece is then adhered to the back left side of the Misty Moonlight layer.
Using the Catch You Later stamp set, the cat and fish bowl are stamped on the far back panel in Memento Black ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends. The inside sentiment is stamped on the moving layer, through the hole when the card is open. An outside sentiment is stamped onto a 1″ x 2-1/4″ strip of Basic White. I flagged the ends and adhered this to the card front.

Hi, Stampers. I’m back today with another triple diamond card. I made a few cards using this fold earlier in the year and they got a good response. This time I made this triple diamond card as a tropical birthday card. Have you looked at the Stampin’ Up! Last Chance Sale? I was sad to see that Timeless Tropical stamp set was on that list – even sadder to see that it’s already sold out (in English, as of today the French set is still available, as are the dies).
Important note: In the past, Stampin’ Up! had guaranteed that we could order stamp sets up until a week or two before the end of the catalog. This is no longer the case. Everything on the retirement / sale list is now available ONLY WHILE SUPPLIES LAST and supplies are not lasting long on some of my favorites!
This card has a Just Jade card base 11″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 1-1/2″, 4-1/8″ and 6″-3/4″. Just Jade is one of the retiring in-colors… just saying… if you LOVE it (or any other outgoing in-color – go grab it!)
The triple diamond card is decorated using the Artfully Composed DSP – two pieces of DSP were cut to 1-1/4″ x 5-1/4″. Another pattern was cut to 2-3/8″ x 5-1/4″, for the middle layer. The third piece is 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the last panel.
For the “diamonds” of my triple diamond card, I cut three pieces of the Just Jade cardstock 1-5/8″ x 1-5/8″ and three white pieces 1-3/8″ x 1-3/8″.
I stamped onto those Basic White “diamonds” using the Timeless Tropical stamp set. To get the two colors on the pineapple, I used the brush tip end of a Stampin’ Write marker to ink the stamp.
Using Calypso Coral ink, the sentiment was stamped onto the Basic White panel. I stamped another pineapple in the lower corner, again inking with the Stampin’ Write Markers.
This triple diamond card is fun and a great way to showcase our fabulous Designer Series Papers!

Hi, Stampers. Today’s card is monochromatic and it’s PINK! Pink is my favorite color and I just love the 2021-2023 in-color – Polished Pink.
My card starts with a Polished Pink card base – 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. Next, I adhered a 1/2″ x 5-1/2″ strip of Silver Foil paper to a 2″ x 5-1/2″ strip of the Polished Pink DSP, so that it peeks out from underneath the DSP. These were then adhered to the card front on the left side.
Using the Blessings from home stamp set, I stamped the large flowers onto a piece of Basic White CS and the sentiment onto a 4″ x 1/2″ strip of Basic White CS in Polished Pink ink. Using all the same color is what makes my card “monochromatic”. Stampin’ Up! color coordinating makes this super simple!
I die cut the flowers using the coordinating Flowers of Home Dies and adhered it to the card front using stampin’ seal. I used the Banner Pick a Punch to flag either end of the strip with the sentiment. Polished Pink ink was sponged onto the edges and it was then adhered it to the card front using stampin’ dimensionals. A Polished Pink bow and some Polished Pink jewels finished off the front of the card.
Inside my card is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS. I stamped flowers in the upper left and lower right corner and then the sentiment in the middle, using Polished Pink ink.
