Who doesn’t love lemons? Did you know that the Tea Boutique Suite has lemons? It does! There are sheets of lemon patterned paper in the Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper, and there’s a lemon stamp and lemon dies in the Cup of Tea Bundle. And I’ve used them all on this card!
A 3-3/4″ x 5″ piece of Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper is adhered to the Basic White card base. A Heart & Home Doily is adhered on the left side of the card. HINT: turn it upside down for a white doily! A piece of Crushed Curry cardstock is cut with one of the Stylish Shapes stitched circle dies, stamped with the sentiment, and adhered to the doily with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
To see exactly how to create this card, watch the video below:
I love the little lemon slice (wedge?) that’s part of the Cup of Tea Bundle. The stamp is very detailed and really looks like the inside of a lemon. Do you see the seeds of the lemon? It’s really an amazing tiny stamp 🙂
The slice is cut with the coordinating die. Then So Saffron cardstock was cut with the more detailed lemon slice die and the adhered to the slice with a dot of Multipurpose Glue.
Just for fun I created one card with one lemon slice, and then I created a second card with three lemon slices. I like both of them! What do you think?
A piece of Garden Green cardstock was punched with the Bough Punch and the leaf tucked under the sentiment circle. It’s always a good idea to use cardstock in the same colors of the designer series paper. That’s what I love about Stampin’ Up! – they make it easy to coordinate colors!

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!
This month the theme is New 2022-2024 In Colors. We really hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations the Pals are sharing with you! As you hop from blog to blog, we would love for you to leave a comment. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
The Stampin’ Up! 2022-2024 In Colors are clear, bright and beautiful, and what fun to use these colors to show off the Sweetest Cherries Bundle!
The cherries were stamped and then punched out with the Cherry Builder Punch. This punch also punched out the stems and the leaves – how easy is that? And to show all this off I created a Basic White slimline card (8″ x 8″, scored at 4″).
The cherries are adhered to a 3-3/4″ x 7-3/4″ piece of Shimmery White cardstock that has been splattered with Starry Sky ink and a Water Painter.
Some sweet little butterflies were cut from Tahitian Tide cardstock using the Brilliant Wings Dies. And a few Sweet Sorbet In Color Decorative Matte Dots were added around the cherries.
This is one of my favorite bundles in the new Annual Catalog – I just LOVE it, and I hope you do too!
More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on June 8th. Our theme will be “CASE the Catalog” when our Design Team creates a project found in the new Annual Catalog and CASE it with their own creative twist.
6 days until the new Annual Catalog debuts! YIPPEE! I couldn’t be more excited for all of us — for you and for me! And, the items in the new catalog are fabulous! (I’ve been telling you this) Today I want to show you one of my favorite Bundles in the catalog, it’s called the Sending Smiles Bundle.
I made this card in two different new In Colors, Orchid Oasis and Sweet Sorbet. I’m enjoying using the new In Colors and experimenting with them. Below is a video that shows you everything in this Bundle and how to use it.
Here’s the same card in Sweet Sorbet:
There’s another new product shown on these cards: the Stylish Shapes Dies. It has nested squares, circles, and labels that are stitched on the inside and the outside. These are must-have dies!
Do you see the cute matte dots? Those are also new – In Color Matte Dots – wonderful!
Get your Wish List Started!
Let me tell you how I make my Wish List, as it might help you. I have several categories:
Must Have – these are my absolute favorites that I want to order right away
Want – these are items I definitely want, but I don’t need right away, I can get them later.
If Possible – these things I like, but don’t necessarily need. When I want to splurge I get these 🙂
Another recommendation: as I mentioned in the video, for your “Must Have” items, order them sooner rather than later. Popular items can go on backorder or become unavailable, and you don’t want that.
You Might Want to Start With Shares!
Shares are simply smaller portions of items offered in the catalog, and they are reasonably priced so that you can experience and play with lots of products without breaking the bank! I order whole packages of designer series paper and In Color products and divide them up so that you get a wonderful variety for less!

I’m so excited to show you this darling Sweet Songbird thank you card! I’ve made it with one of my favorite Bundles in the new 2022-2023 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog, and it is just the cutest bundle. Isn’t that little bird darling?
This card also shows you a few of the new In Colors: Parakeet Party is the green and Sweet Sorbet is the color of the little bird. These are bright, pretty colors that go well with other colors. And here the Baker’s Twine and the Matte Dot Accessory are both color coordinated to exactly match the Sweet Sorbet ink.
Here is a replay of a video tutorial showing how to make this card:
The Sweet Songbirds Bundle contains the stamp set and the coordinating punch. The stamp set has a branch stamp, a leaf stamp, sentiment stamps…there’s even a cute little nest stamp!
The branch and leaves are stamped on a Basic White circle cut with the Layering Circle Dies. The leaves attached to the branch were stamped with the Parakeet Party ink full strength. The other leaves were stamped off first before stamping on the circle.
This is such a cute thank you note. I can’t wait to send it out!

Thank you notes are so important. When someone has given me a gift or done something nice for me, I like to thank them with one of my handmade cards. And many times I like to use a smaller notecard.
The Stampin’ Up! notecards and envelopes are great. They come in a package of 20 cards and envelopes for a very good price.
Here I’ve used Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay and Melon Mambo cardstock. The scallop on the Basic White piece was cut with one of the coordinating Brilliant Rainbow Dies.Â
And I just love the little Bermuda Bay rainbow tag die. I just layered the colors and the dies to make a cute notecard!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! Today we are celebrating with shamrocks and green!Â
Stampin’ Up! has SO many gorgeous greens. I really didn’t know how many until I actually saw all of them together: look at this beautiful array of greens!
It’s fun to challenge yourself to make a card using different shades of one color. For this card, and in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, I challenged myself to make a card using all green. I used Soft Sea Foam with the darker Shaded Spruce.
Here’s a replay of the Facebook Live showing you exactly how to make this card!
The Garden Wishes Bundle is on sale this month (March) for 20% OFF! It’s a fabulous bundle:
This card uses two different embossing folders: the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and the Hive 3D Embossing Folder.
The dandelion from the Garden Wishes stamp set was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink and then cut out with the coordinating die. The bees were colored with Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers in shades of green. On St. Patrick’s Day we have to have green bees, right? 🙂
The “thanks” sentiment was created using the fun Amazing Thanks Dies. I just love these dies, they can be used on any card. It’s nice to just put a word on the front of a card 🙂
