Good Saturday morning stamping friends, welcome to the weekend. Happy 4th of July!!! Do you have plans for today? I’m probably going to be in my room cutting up everything for my product shares. We’re supposed to go to see a firework display later tonight.

I played with a new bundle that just came out with the new July Online Exclusives. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Botanical Expressions Bundle, Brights Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Framed All Around Stamp Set for my card today.

My colors are from TGIF Color Challenge #584

I also played along with Just Us Girls Die Week Challenge #830

Fold a Basic Black card base into a ‘Z’ fold card by folding the card base in half and the front back. Using the Botanical Expressions Die, cut a panel of Brights Painted Pattern DSP. Adhere the die cut panel to a Lemon Lime Twist mat.

Adhere the layered panel to the front section of the Basic Black card base. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Botanical Expressions stamp set in Black Ink of your choice. Adhere the sentiment to a Basic Black mat.

Adhere the layered sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere a detailed butterfly from the Gilded Wings Accents to a solid butterfly. Color 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels using the Basic Black Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere them to the butterfly’s body. Adhere the butterfly to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment from the Botanical Expressions stamp set in Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the leaf image from the Framed All Around stamp set in Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. Color the image using Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Coastal Cabana mat then to the inside of the Basic Black card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the leaf image from the Framed All Around stamp set in Black Ink on the envelope front. Color the image uisg Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Marker. Adhere a panel of Brights Painted Pattern DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

1 week left to Register for Pretty Poinsettia Christmas in July Online Class

Tara and I are teaming up to offer a Christmas in July Online Class featuring the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Poinsettia Bundle and 2026-2028 In-Color Gingham Gallery DSP. To ensure we can get the products for you the sign-up time is very short, 1 week. We want to ensure that we are able to get the embossing folders for everyone and the bundle if you wish to order it. We are offering the bundle to you at an additional 10% discount (see price on form). We will be creating 6 different cards during the class including 2 Fun Fold cards. Click Here to register.

The class fee includes:

• Stampin’ Up! Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels (full pack)
• Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folder
• Pre-cut card kits to complete each card
• Zoom class with complete instructions to complete each card

During sign up you will have the option to add additional items to your order that you can take advantage of at no additional shipping cost.  These items are optional, however if you want to recreate the cards you will need them. If you’ve attended a previous class, you were given a discount code, there is a spot to put that code on the form and the discount only applies to the products that you check off that you wish to purchase, not the class.  Since the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle is already discounted, the discount does not apply to that.

The class will be held Sunday July 26th from 1 to 4 pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This allows anyone in the United States to participate live!  Can’t join us live… no worries, we will record the session so it can be replayed at any time.

I will email written directions that will include directions, cardstock cuts as well as photos to help you create each card.

Class Cost $40 + $10 (Shipping) 

Additional purchased items will be included in the above shipping price.  I will invoice you through PayPal and invoices must be paid by July 10th to insure I can get the products.  Sign up by Clicking Here.

Deadline: Friday July 10th
