Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. Hope you all had a great weekend.
For today’s card I made a Sympathy card using a Sale-A-Bration stamp set that is available free with a $100 order. There are a couple of items from the Sale-A-Bration catalog that require a $100 order, but most of the products are free with a $50 order. I used the beautiful Stampin’ Up Lasting Lily Photopolymer Distinktive stamp set. Take a look
I started with a Wood Textures Designer Series Paper card front and adhered it to a Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a Whisper White panel, using my Stamparatus, I stamped the stems from the Stampin’ Up Lasting Lily stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the leaf in Mint Macaron Ink on the stem on the right. I then stamped the Lily’s from the same set in Powder Pink Ink onto the stems. All the stamping of these flowers I used my Stamparatus, it made it much easier to line everything up. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Powder Pink mat using Snail. I wrapped a Mint Macaron piece of Nature’s Twine around the bottom of the artwork.
I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Lasting Lily stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink. I cut the oval out using my Big Shot and my Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies. Using the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies and my Big Shot again, I cut the Powder Pink scalloped oval mat. I adhered the Stitched oval to the Powder Pink mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue then adhered it to the artwork and card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Pearl Basic Jewel to the sentiment oval.
On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped the Lily image again from the Lasting Lily stamp set the same as I did for the card front, but stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set over the lilies in Mint Macaron Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Powder Pink mat using Snail and then to the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the lilies from the Lasting Lily stamp set on the front of the envelope the same way I did for the card. I adhered a piece of Wood Textured DSP to the envelope flap.

Product List
As you can see all the cards are kind of the same. The frog card is made with Melon Mambo and the 1 1/2″ Circle Punch. The puppy is made with Poppy Parade and the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies and the kitty is made with Blushing Bride and the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies. All these cards are Peek-A-Boo cards.
I stamped the Happy Valentine’s Day sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Forever Lovely stamp set in either Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (on the Melon Mambo or Poppy Parade cards) or Early Espresso Ink (for the Blushing Bride card) above the circle or ovals. I wrapped a piece of Whisper White 5/8″ Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around the top of each card base and tied a knot. I added 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels to each of the card fronts.
I stamped the You Are Loved sentiment from the Forever Lovely stamp set on a Whisper White panel using Melon Mambo, Poppy Parade or Early Espresso Inks. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of each of the card bases.
I started with Thick Very Vanilla card base and adhered a panel of Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper to the front using Snail. I took a small piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and stamped the triple dandelion image and the flying dandelion pieces image from the Stampin’ Up Dandelion Wishes stamp set in Pacific Point Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool.
I adhered the artwork to a Pacific Point panel using Snail. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Humming Along stamp set in Versamark Ink below the artwork. I sprinkled it with my White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. I wrapped a piece of Very Vanilla 5/8″ Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around the artwork and tied a bow.
I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then added a couple Clear Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the dandelion image from the Dandelion Wishes stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the sentiment with the Stampin’ Up Seasoned With Kindness stamp set over the dandelion image in Pacific Point Ink. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Pacific Point mat using Snail then to the Thick Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I started with a piece of Grapefruit Grove Gingham Gala 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper. Using my Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Marker I drew lines between the checks to make it look like plaid. I adhered a small piece of the DSP to the left side of a Whisper White card front using Snail. I wrapped a piece of the Grapefruit Grove 1/4″ Organdy Ribbon around the card front on the seem. I adhered the card front to a Call Me Clover mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. In the upper right corner of the Whisper White panel, I stamped the flies from the So Hoppy Together stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored them in using my Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker.
I adhered the matted artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card front to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added 1 Grapefruit Grove Share What You Love Artisan Pearl next to the sentiment.
On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped the frog from So Hoppy Together stamp set on the bottom portion of the panel and the flies from the same set by the frog. I colored it in the same as I did for the front of the card. I adhered a small strip of the Gingham Gala 6 X 6 DSP to the bottom of the panel.

Using my Big Shot I cut out 3 of the smallest hearts from the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies in Lovely Lipstick cardstock. I adhered the heats to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside on a Whisper White panel, I stamped the heart from the Vertical Greetings stamp set in Lovely Lipstick Ink stamping off 3 times to get a very light image. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Forever Lovely stamp set (available January 3, 2019), in Lovely Lipstick Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Lovely Lipstick mat using Snail then to the Balmy Blue card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
