Celebrate with Me…One of My Favorite Card Designs

Thanks for stopping by and helping me celebrate my 10th anniversary as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator this month. Don’t forget to leave a comment to enter my 10 Days of Giveaways! I love sharing some of my favorite products, exclusive tutorials, card kits and more! Welcome to Day 7! Today’s project is one of my favorite “go to” card designs.
Stampin' Up! Lucky Clover St. Patrick's Day card idea for a friend- Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I love the way this floral DSP looks like it could be a field of clover! You can get the 6×6 Designer Series Paper Assortments in all of the different color families (Brights, Neutrals, Regals, Subtles, and In Colors). I used Granny Apple Green from the Brights Collection.

I really like all 4 designs in this year’s assortment packs. I’m a big fan of polka dots and florals and love that I can get them in every color now!

I used the Lucky Clover stamp set to create today’s cards. If you were lucky enough to get the bundle before the punch sold out, good for you! However, if you didn’t, no worries! This is a fun stamp set on it’s own! And you can easily fussy cut the clover if you want.

I remember spending hours when I was young sitting in the grass looking for 4 leaf clovers! (I know for a fact they are hard to find! LOL) Today’s card showcases this stamp set and you don’t need to punch or fussy cut. I like the look when you stamp a sentiment and image on top. I used the Layering Circle Dies to cut the sentiment out and popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added the cascading shamrocks with the sentiment on the inside and stamped the envelope to coordinate.

I love this card design for several reasons: it’s quick and easy, showcases the beautiful DSP, and can be used with many different sentiments. It is obvious from the collection of cards below that I use this design a lot!

You can alter the size of the DSP depending on what you are adding. For today’s notecard, I cut my DSP 3×3 so you get 4 cards from 1 6×6 sheet! I added a coordinating cardstock layer that is just 1/8″ larger. Notecards are my favorite for thank you cards and a quick little note when I need to send multiples!  You get 20 pre-scored cards & envelopes in a pack! I love to get a big bang for my buck and this does it! I usually add at least one pack of notecards to every order! They come in white or vanilla.

*Tip: For a regular A2 card, cut the DSP 3×4 to get the best use of your 12 x 12 DSP.

My daughter and my sister are visiting this week and we are having so much fun together! I love to make little favors to leave in their rooms or on the dinner table throughout the week. I found a different twist to my pretzel m&m’s recipe that is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. These are made with Rolo candy in the center to keep the “shamrock” together. They are so cute and oh so yummy!!!!!

A Gift Idea for Mother’s Day

Mother’s day is a perfect time to recognize all the wonderful moms in your life! When my daughter was little I was new in the community and joined a moms playgroup to meet people. Those wonderful women became “my village” from potty training to empty nests! Their friendship is a blessing! Today’s project would be a lovely gift for any of the moms in your life!
Stampin' Up! Pansy Petals and Timeless Tulips Gift Box idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I have been on a roll making these oyster shell trinket holders. There are so many uses for these! (*If you missed my previous posts featuring these shells, you can click HERE or HERE.)

I took advantage of the CLEARANCE SALE and purchased the gold boxes which are the perfect size for these shells. The inspiration for the box came from a card design (found on page 28) in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.

I cut the pansy and leaves from the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper using the Pansy Dies. The sentiment is from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set (*one of my retiring favorites!!!). I love how the box coordinates with the shell! The bumblebee trinket is the perfect finishing touch! You can view the complete list of products used below.
Here’s a close up of the Gold Mini Pizza Box.

Here’s a SPECIAL OFFER FOR MOTHER’S DAY…. You can purchase the pansy gift box and shell for $20 (includes shipping & handling)! These shells are the latest craze for decor and gifts.  I have seen them in boutiques and gift shops priced much higher. If you want/need a Mother’s Day gift for a friend, sister, aunt, mom, grandma…I’ve got you covered. This one of a kind gift comes ready to give wrapped in the pansy box. You can even have it shipped directly to the recipient! I have a limited number ready to ship immediately. To order, email me (j.stark@goeaston.net) with “Mother’s Day Gift” in the subject. I accept Paypal or check.

Bouquet of Love Valentine Treats

Valentine’s Day is next week so it’s time to get those cards and treats ready to send or deliver.  I used the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder with Word Wishes and Love You More Than Dies to create some sweet Valentine treats for my adult children.Stampin' Up! Word Wishes Dies and Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder Valentines with Mini paper Pumpkin boxes - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This is a card and treat all in one! I decorated the front of the Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes like a card and filled it with my family’s favorite chocolate treats. (I even coordinated the cardstock with the candy.) These treats are so yummy as well as quick & easy to make! I love using the different colored M&M’s for every holiday.
Stampin' Up! Love You More Than Dies and Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder Valentines with Mini paper Pumpkin boxes - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes are food safe and make it so easy to gift homemade treats! This is the perfect sentiment for these treats! I love word dies and the easiest way to apply these is to use the Adhesive Sheets. Simply adhere the adhesive sheet to the cardstock before cutting out the dies.  Then just remove the backing and adhere.

Let’s take a closer look at what you get with the NEW Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder.
Stampin' Up Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder - visit juststampin.com for inspiration and ordering information - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This set is so cool because you can emboss and die cut at the same time. It includes 9 dies and an embossing folder. I used the large heart die with the embossing folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine in both Magenta Madness and Fresh Freesia cardstock for a two tone look. I love the stitched detail and great impressions you get with this set. You can purchase this set as a bundle with the Love & Happiness Stamp Set (and save 10%). I used A Wish for Everything Stamp Set with the Happy die from Word Wishes.

  • Fresh Freesia: 5 1/2 x 3 3/4, 5 1/4 x 3 1/2 (embossed with heart cut out)
  • Magenta Madness: 5 1/4 x 3 1/2 (embossed with heart cut out)
  • Basic White: Adhere 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 piece to Foam Adhesive  and cut with Happy Die from Word Wishes, 1/2 x 2 1/2 strip to stamp sentiment from A Wish For Everything in Magenta Madness Ink. Cut end at an angle.

My daughter’s favorite color is purple. For my son, I used Early Espresso DSP for a more masculine look instead of embossing with the floral.

I tied each with ribbon for a pretty presentation and secure transport through the mail. You can view the complete list of products I used below.

Here’s the recipe if you want to make these yummy treats!
