STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL:
Create a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card base with Thick Whisper White card stock and the Stampin’ Trimmer. Adhere a 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Basic Black card stock.
Crop the gifts using a die from Detailed Birthday Edgelits Dies and a die cutting machine. Trim to approximately 4 1/8″ wide and 2 1/2″ tall from the bottom to the top of the tallest gift.
Adhere a 3 3/4 x 1 1/4 Coastal Cabana polka dot pattern from How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper below the gift die cut.. Adhere the layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. TIP: I snipped a few of the dimensionals so that they would be hidden below some of the narrower, detailed pieces.
Crop “birthday” using Basic Black card stock, Well Written Framelits Dies and a die cutting machine. Adhere with bits of Snail Adhesive or Fine Tip Glue. TIP: Don’t forget to include the little dot for the “i.”
Add six Coastal Cabana Glitter Dots for splash and personality.
Using the Stamparatus stamp positioning tool and Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, stamp the “It’s All About You!” sentiment on Whisper White card stock. Crop with the flagged end die from Bunch of Banners and a die cutting machine. Snip left side with Paper Snips. Adhere to card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Using the Stamparatus, stamp the interior of the card with the sentiment from Birthday Cheer Cling stamp set and Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
For a pretty presentation, dress up the outside envelope flap of a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Medium Envelope using the matching How Sweet It Is polka dot pattern. To crop this piece, I used the envelope liner die from Beautiful Layers Thinlits Dies (finished height of approximately 1 7/8″), a die cutting machine and adhered it to the outside flap with Snail Adhesive.

Oh MsMary, I love that card , I need to play with mine , I’m so glad those Dots are caring over, I love those ♥️
Tfs hugs Frenchie
Love the sparkle in the dots. Thanks for stopping by, Frenchie!
OK Mary, I changed my mind again and ordered Butterflies stamps and dies just a little while ago,WOW, what a set!! cannot wait till it comes!!! I love yours too, Hi Brian King.. That card was ment to be given to somebody for a very special time, it is just WOW,WOW!! Thanks my Friend Mary. and the rest of our Family, Happy Spring!!! CMT
Sublime color combo, The graphic and modern look is refreshing. I am so sorry that this set is sold out…TFS
I’ll miss this bundle. However, the new catalog is a winner!
Mary, just out of curiosity when will I get my new books? Do I need to order them or what? Have another card for you with I hope details you like. You all are the best, cmt
Hi Cynthia,
I have sent you an email to follow-up with you.
Mary
Oh Mary, love the amazing contrast of the white gifts against the black background and the pop of soft color from the DSP is just delightful.
And what a fabulous way to display your sentiment and the perfectly placed enamel dots.
Another winner card, thank you for sharing.
XO?
Those yummy glitter dots are carrying over to the new annual catalog . . . love it. Thanks, Maria!
Crisp and Modern to the MAX. LOVE THIS CARD!!!!!
Thanks, Kadie. I only recently discovered these dies and they are retiring!
What a fun card, Mary. Love the colors and the placement of the inside sentiment. The “dressed up” envelope flap is clever that it does not cover the entire flap and it’s easy using the die. Enjoy your day!
That little polka dot is the perfect touch for the envelope and the liner die (Beautiful Layers) is perfect for creating it.
Thanks, BK. Coastal Cabana is a “go to” blue for me. Looks good with so many colors. I often use a hole punch and card stock to mimic the glitter dots. That allows me to play around with placement before adhering the dots!
Love this bold mix of Coastal Cabana, Basic Black and Whisper White! Such a wonderful celebration and a great showcase of the Well Written Dies, too. Love the strategically placed enamel dots.
