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!
Stampin' Up! Lucky Clover St. Patrick's Day card idea for a friend- Jeanie Stark StampinUp
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.
Stampin' Up! Lucky Clover stamp set- Jeanie Stark StampinUp
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!!!!!

Friends Are Like Seashells

Previously I shared some Valentine treat boxes I made using the Mini Paper Pumpkin boxes. I love that these boxes are food safe but they also make great gift boxes which is what I’m using them for today.

I really enjoy decorating these boxes for gifts. One of my favorite bundles is Friends Are Like Seashells. This bundle includes the Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Set and the Seaside Seashells Dies.

There’s an ocean of possibilities in this set! The seashell, sand dollar, starfish, and sea grass images are the perfect accompaniment for sea-themed cards.  I used the coordinating Seashells 3D Embossing Folder for my background. It’s a great way to elevate your projects and give them some dimension and texture.

I combined the Seashells 3D embossing folder with the Seaside Seashells Dies to create a coordinating oceanscape for my cards to go with the gifts.
Stampin' Up! Friends Are Like Seashells note cards for any occasion - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I chose to use Stampin’ Up! Note Cards & Envelopes because I wanted my card to fit inside the Mini Paper Pumpkin Box with the gift. Stampin’ Up! Note Cards & Envelopes come in sets of 20 in Basic White and Very Vanilla and are still what I consider the best deal in town! If you want a different color note card, simply cut a piece of 3 1/2 x 5 cardstock and adhere on the front of the card. How easy is that?!
Here’s the details for today’s projects:

Note Card & Envelope (Inspired by Julie Davison)
Stampin' Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Note Card & Envelope Birthday Card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

  • Card Base: Basic White Note Card & Envelope
  • Cardstock layer (Blushing Bride): 3 1/2 x 5 embossed and adhered to card front
  • Cardstock (same color): 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 sponged with Shimmer Frost White, die cut with Seaside Shells Dies then embossed with Seashells 3D Embossing Folder and cut apart with paper snips. Adhere top portion to card front (see photos below).
  • Basic White: scrap to stamp sentiment in Sahara Sand ink and cut with die from All Dressed Up. Adhere to card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Envelope: emboss with Seashells 3D Embossing Folder to coordinate.

  • Adhere die cut shell (snipped from large die) with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Have you checked out the Clearance Rack lately? These (retired) Gold Mini Pizza Boxes are just $2.80 for 8 (reg. $7.00)! Now that’s a great deal!!!! These little boxes are great for gifts or treats as well. I used some of the leftover die pieces to decorate the top of these boxes.

Are you wondering what’s in all these boxes? The sentiment (from Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Set) gives a clue and couldn’t be more perfect to go with these gifts I made for friends.

I have had many people ask about my oyster shells after I shared some of the different ways you can use these shells in your home decor or as gifts.  (Click HERE to view that post.)
I do sell these shells and each one is unique.
Email me (j.stark@goeaston.net) if you are interested in purchasing. I accept Paypal or check.

Here’s a “sweet” card I created showcasing the new In Colors.
Stampin' Up! 2021-2023 In Colors Sweet Ice Cream Bundle note card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
When I first saw the new In Colors they reminded me of a sweet sherbet.  Orange Sherbet is my favorite and the Pale Papaya looks good enough to eat!!! I used the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set for some tone on tone ice cream and punched them with the Ice Cream Cone Builder Set. The cone is punched from the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. This sentiment is perfect to go with these new In Colors!
