Velvet Meadows Floating Flower Card

by

This week’s Velvet Meadow Designer Series Paper card is a fun fold featuring a floating flower on a tower. It folds flat to fit in a regular A2 envelope. All measurements, materials, and instructions to make this fun card are included in the free instruction sheet below.

The Opulent Oasis die creates the beautiful embossed detail on the velvet cardstock, and the impression becomes even deeper when used in conjunction with the new Impressions Plate from Stampin’ Up!.

NOTE: I had a cancellation for the June Velvet Meadows class so I have one kit available.

Sneak Peak July Online Exclusive

Beginning July 1, 2026, a brand-new collection of Online Exclusive products will be available from Stampin’ Up!® Be sure to check back on June 26, 2026, when I will post the complete list of products that will be available to order.

One of the new offerings is the beautiful Framed Violets Stamp and Die Set, shown below. While the stamp and die set coordinates perfectly with the new Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper, it was not used to create any of the 11 cards pictured below.

All 11 cards were made using just half of a pack of Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper. The paper pack includes two sheets of coordinating die-cut images, and only one of those sheets was used to create all of the cards shown. Combined with the other coordinating patterned papers in the pack, this DSP provides endless possibilities for quick and beautiful card designs.

It’s amazing how many cards can be created from just a portion of one Designer Series Paper pack!

Blackberry Beauty Tower Card

by

This weeks free PDF file contains instructions for a tower card. I looked at many different versions on the internet and finally decided on a combination of several that I saw. This version will lay flat to fit in a standard invitation size envelope (Stampin’ Up!® Medium size envelopes). I chose the Blackberry Beauty Specialty DSP to decorate this card because it is such beautiful paper that it didn’t need much embellishment. I also added a triangular pocket on one side to hold a note but it is big enough for a gift card.
