Like the past couple of days, today’s card features one of the newly released Sale-a-bration items that you can get for FREE with a $50 purchase. You can see all three of the new items here. The 6×6 Glimmer Paper is stunning. I’m not a big fan of using glitter. I mean, I think it’s pretty, but I don’t like the mess I always make with it. But this paper is so beautiful in Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, and Sweet Sugarplum that I just couldn’t resist.
Here’s what I made:
Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer:
- Mint Macaron card stock (CS) to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- 2 pieces of Whisper White CS to 5-1/4″ x 4″
- Sweet Sugarplum CS to 5″ x 3-3/4″
- Mint Macaron & Whisper White CS pieces big enough to die cut the circles
Stamped with the Flourishing Phrases stamp set:
- front sentiment in Sweet Sugarplum ink onto the small piece of Whisper White CS
- inside sentiment in Sweet Sugarplum ink onto one of the larger pieces of Whisper White CS
- part of the large flourish image in Mint Macaron ink around the inside sentiment
Die cut using the Layering Circles Framelits:
- the front sentiment that’s stamped onto Whisper White CS
- a slightly larger circle from Mint Macaron CS
Die cut using the Flourish Thinlits Dies:
- large flourish from Mint Macaron glimmer paper
- Note – put the glimmer paper face down, then put the die on top of it. It’s easier to cut that way. There are times when you must cut it glitter side up, when you’re cutting out a word, for example, so it won’t be backwards.
Embossed with the Polka Dot embossing folder:
- Sweet Sugarplum CS
Assembled the card:
- inside piece glued to the inside of the card base
- glimmer paper flourish glued to the embossed Sweet Sugarplum CS
- the Whisper White circle glued onto the Mint Macaron circle
- both circles adhered to the embossed Sweet Sugarplum CS with Stampin’ Dimensionals
- Sweet Sugarplum CS glued to the remaining large piece of Whisper White CS
- the Whisper White CS glued to the front of the card base

Thanks for stopping by today, and Sweet Stamping!
Really beautiful!
I really do like the way you present your cards each time (this is what I made, this is how I did it). For those of us who are rushed on time or have a very small creative gene your presentations are wonderful. Please continue this format. I do love your cards. Thanks so much
I appreciate your feedback, Linda! You may see a few more posts without this format – ones I already had scheduled. But I do plan to continue it from now on. Thank you!
