Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Is everyone getting ready for the weekend? I’ll be working all day tomorrow and I’m sure it will be another busy day. Everyone will be running in for lights and decorations to get their houses and trees decorated.
Today’s card I made on YouTube Live on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. Here is my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Stippled Roses Bundle from the upcoming January-April 2024 Mini Catalog along with the Softly Stippled Designer Series Paper from the upcoming January-February 2024 Sale-a-bration and the Wanted To Say Dies for my card today. The Bundle and DSP will both be available starting January 4, 2024.
I started by adhering the left side of the card base using Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 panels of Softly Stippled DSP to Real Red mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the Pebbled Path card base using Liquid Glue.
I cut small notches on the top and bottom of the 1 1/4″ side panel using Paper Snips. I wrapped a piece of Pebbled Path Jute Trim from the 2023-2025 Jute Trim pack around the edge and tied a bow.
Using the Wanted To Say Dies, I cut the sentiment out from a panel of Real Red and the sentiment mat from a panel of Pebbled Path. On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the rose image from the Stampin’ Up! Stippled Roses Cling Stamp Set. I inked the stamp using Real Red and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Write Markers, gave it a little huff and stamped the image. I cut the rose using the Stippled Roses Dies. I cut the leaves out of a panel of Granny Apple Green using the Stippled Roses Dies. I used my Granny Apple Green marker and colored the leaf veins. I adhered the vein pieces back into the leaves using Tear & Tape. I adhered the rose using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the leaves with the Tear & Tape I adhered to hold the veins in place. I added a few Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels to the card front.
On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Stippled Roses stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the rose image from the Stippled Roses stamp set on the bottom of the panel, inking it up the same way I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat then to the inside of the Pebbled Path card base.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Stippled Roses stamp set on the envelope front, inking it up the same way I did for the card front. I adhered a panel of Softly Stippled DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take on the card.

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me!

Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.
Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:
- You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
- If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

January-April 2024 Mini Catalog Paper Shares Ordering Is Open
Do you want all of the gorgeous new Designer Series Papers and pretty Ribbon in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog but can’t afford everything? I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share and a Ribbon Share! What is a Paper Share and a Ribbon Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers and the Ribbon from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Minil Catalog. If you were to purchase all of the DSP and Ribbon in the new Mini Catalog, it would cost you over $141.00 plus shipping.
New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail Shipping
I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!! I’m placing my share order early on January 4th. I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of January 15th.
How my shares work: I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list. I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag with labels listing the Name, Item # and Colors in the pack and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can! Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!
New Designer Series Paper Share – $15.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail shipping
You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP packs (the number after the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):
- Bee Mine – 6
- Forever Love – 6
- Just Kiddin’ -6
- Light Than Air 6″ X 6″ – 8
- Nature’s Sweetest – 6
- Perennial Lavender – 6
- Poetic Expressions – 6
- Rock & Roll – 6
In all, you’ll receive 50 – 6” x 6” sheets of designer or specialty paper!
Double DSP Share – $30 + $8.50 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too! I’ll cut the 12″ x 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ × 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ x 6″ since they’re already precut.
As a Thank you gift for joining in on my paper share, I will be including a sampling of some of the new Sale-a-bration DSP that will be available with qualifying orders. I believe there are 5 different DSPs in the Sale-a-bration catalog. I’m not sure yet which ones I’ll be including, it might be 1, 3 or all 5.
New Ribbon Share – $10.00 plus $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping
All ribbons will come individually wrapped and labeled with the name and number of the product. Please note that ribbons are being divided differently, you will be getting one fourth of a roll of each of the Ribbons or Baker’s Twine.

- 1/4″ Sweet Sorbet Bordered Ribbon
- 3/8″ Pretty Peacock & Gold Metallic Ribbon
- Baker’s Twine Three Color Pack

Double Ribbon Share – $20 + $8.50 Priority Mail Shipping – If you’d like double shares of the Ribbon, you will be getting 1/2 of the roll or each ribbon and baker’s twine.
