Beautiful Butterflies Bundle Dies and Hybrid Embossing Folder Stampin Up...



The Beautiful Butterflies Bundle with hybrid embossing folder is versatile and varied. This Butterfly card stands on its own and would look super cute on any recipient's display table.  The butterflies are stamped in Versamark ink and embossed with clear embossing powder on Lemon Lolly cardstock for visibility and a smooth shiny texture, and the Daffodil Delight dot embellishments on the antennae and the sentiment are from the Loose frosted dots.


(It looks like the dots aren't in the right place for the antennae, but we are just seeing other two antennae from the back side of the card.)

The Fun Fold design below was a card in an ad on Pinterest for the past several days when I pinned photos from videos. It was not made with Beautiful Butterflies, so I changed that of course. It was for sale, but actually didn't link anywhere, so I'm not sure what the problem was nor who to credit.

For class next week, I'm going to allow peeps to chose whether they use Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue or Lemon Lolly for the card base. I love to provide choices, so they will also choose whether they prefer a white background or a patterned paper background from the Beautiful Bokeh pack-shown below on the Balmy Blue card.


I love the color transition between Fresh Freesia and Calypso Coral in the paper. If you love this crinkled taffeta, today (2/28/25) is the last day to choose it as a SaleABration reward.


Then, I used a Melon Mambo layer as a focal point for this black card made with the Full of Life paper. I wanted to show the butterflies with a different color scheme for fun.

Finally, this Calypso Coral card features the Embossing folder with the large butterfly cut out. I used a Blending Brush and Calypso Coral ink to highlight the same butterfly behind the die cut piece, added 2 smaller butterflies and the butterfly bodies and added the sentiment and embellishments.

Darling Dinos Bundle Birthday Welcome Baby Thank you Stampin Up Card Video


I love the intensity of this color combination: Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lime Twist, Shaded Spruce and Granny Apple Green. These were all colored with Stampin' Blends.


I also used Stampin Blends on this card although the Dinos were stamped on Soft SeaFoam to reduce the amount of coloring needed. A softer color palette is still a lot of fun.


These little Dinos were colored with Blends and Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink were added to give them a girly vibe.

Finally on this baby card, both bright and soft colors were combined...You really can't go wrong whatever colors you choose!


It was a blast making these dinosaur Valentines for my work friends. I do a drawing for Halloween, Christmas and Valentine's Day and let them pick their preferred candy when their name is drawn. I really enjoyed the "back side" of the Toadstool Garden SaleABration paper for Valentine's with the dinosaurs-the greens and pinks made it perfect!



The first and second treat holders are boxes. In the video, I showed dimensions and scoring for these.


This is just a wrap around with two open ends. Easy peasy, but still cute!


This candy treat was small enough that I was able to wrap the 6X6 paper around it and create a little bag with a stapled bottom for a different look.




Finally these Reese's hearts covers with the hole where it says Reese's were imagined by Kelli McConkey three years ago. I just used our Darling Dinos and Toadstool Garden paper to update.

Linked Together Bundle Wedding Birthday Stampin Up Card Video



The card below shows just using the sentiment stamps from the linked together set. This card could be for someone who is changing jobs or graduating. Probably with this paper and the flowers it would be best given to a girl. The Blooming Impressions SaleABration paper has a variety of soft and in this case, bright, garden hues.



I used the "birthday" from the Online Exclusives set, Cake Celebrations...I thought the fonts were close enough. 

I think using a different color for "the best" makes the fact that the fonts aren't exactly the same look more planned.  This soft Lost Lagoon/Pool Party paper pattern is also from the Bloom Impressions 12 x 12 SaleABration paper.


I'm sure you've noticed all the cards in this post/video have the same Fun Fold. I do think it is an elegant design when combined with this set of dies and stamps.  For this wedding card, the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder replaces the floral papers for a sophisticated look in all white.

Delightful Wishes Floral Delight Stampin Up! 2025 Spring Jan April Card ...


There are infinite combinations with this beautiful bundle. First I used the Floral Vellum with Freesia blooms stamped on Lemon Lolly using Daffodil Delight.

This card is similar, but it uses a stepped up card design with a small card mounted on the front of the regular card.

The freesia branch is stamped on the inside of the card.


Sorry it was odd to photograph, but I did it two ways. One with the image cut and the YOU on the small card and the other with the sentiment in entirety on the inside.

The stamped and die cut  marigolds make a lovely fall themed card as well with the matching paper. I love that there are two very different florals in this bundle for a lot of possibilities!


More marigolds are on this Lemon Lolly card using the die cut marigolds.

This card features yellow freesia stamped on Basic White cardstock and die cut.

Finally this card is a profusion of vellum with the flowers die cut from the vellum for a very light look.
