Yes, it’s another peach themed card! I warned you in an earlier post that I was having fun creating projects using the Sweet As A Peach bundle and the coordinating You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper. The designer series paper makes it easy to create a variety of cards differing in color and design yet keeping with the peach theme. The vibrant colors and peach images on today’s card are perfect for birthday wishes. Participants in last month’s class, received the materials for creating this card in their kits. Keep reading for additional card details below the card photos.
Card Details:
For the card base, use the largest card size in the Assorted Memories & More Card Pack.
Cut 3 panels of Pear Pizzazz cardstock 3-7/8″ x 1-7/8″.
Next, cut the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper creating 3 panels 3-3/4″ x 1-3/4″. Attach the designer series paper panels to the Pear Pizzazz cardstock panels with adhesive.
To add the panels, space evenly on the card base front and adhere using a strong adhesive such as Stampin’ Seal+ or Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach Stamp Set onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Pear Pizzazz Classic Stampin’ Pad. Cut the label shape using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Add to card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Embellish with a Bumblebee Embellishment and a small bow tied using the Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon. Attach the embellishments using glue dots.
And don’t forget the card interior…
For the greeting, stamp using Calypso Coral Classic Ink Pad (or use Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink Pad). For the peach, ink the stamp with Pale Papaya Classic Ink and then lightly sponge Calypso Coral ink along one side to create color variation before stamping onto the card. Finish by stamping the stem/leaves using the Pear Pizzazz ink.
There are still peach theme cards for me to share but I’ll take a break and share other creations with you in my next post! But, I hope you’re inspired to add the Sweet As A Peach Bundle and the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper to your wish list.

As mentioned in my last post, I am enjoying using the Sweet As A Peach bundle. In addition to last week’s card and others to share, I have a quick and easy gift tag featuring the Sweet As A Peach Bundle. Not only does it feature the stamp set, it also highlights the beautiful You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper and the Tailor Made Tags Dies. Trust me, you’re going to want to add the tags dies to your “must have” list! The dies include two tag shapes in three sizes so you’ll have the ability to make tags for a variety of package sizes.
Creating the Sweet As A Peach Gift Tag:
Using one of the largest tag dies from the Tailor Made Tags Dies, cut one tag from Pale Papaya cardstock. Cut another tag from the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper. Align the tag tops and overlap the designer series paper tag. Adhere the tags together using a glue dot to hold the designer series paper in place.
On a scrap of Basic White cardstock, stamp the sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set using Pale Papaya Classic Ink Pad. After stamping, cut shape using the Tasteful Labels Dies (or a die shape of your choice).
Embellish the sentiment by stamping the small leaves (from the Sweet As A Peach Stamp Set) using Pear Pizzazz. Color Basic Rhinestone Jewels with Dark Calypso Coral Blends and add to the leaves.
Add the sentiment to the tag using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
You can use the gift tag on a variety of packages. As you see in the photo, a 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ acetate card box is filled with treats. Pale Papaya & White Ribbon is wrapped around the box and before tying the bow, a strip of Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and a strip of White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon are added. The Sweet As A Peach gift tag is inserted under the bow and attached to the box with glue dots.
Stay tuned, I’ll be sharing more “peach themed” projects.

Wow! I can’t believe a month has passed and I haven’t updated this blog. Obviously, I’ve been busy but I didn’t realize so much time has passed. The great thing is I have lots of projects to share with you over the next few weeks. So many, that I’ll be adding some additional posts for the next few weeks. One group of projects will feature the Sweet As A Peach Bundle. When I first saw the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog, I was immediately drawn to the Sweet As A Peach bundle and the coordinating You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper. So today, I am sharing a project from the May card class featuring the bundle.
Card Details:
Create a card base using Basic White Thick cardstock (4-1/4″ x 11″, score at 5-1/2″ and fold).
Cut the following from the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper (DSP): 5-1/2″ x 4″ and a coordinating piece 4-1/4″ x 2-1/2″.
Attach the larger piece of the DSP of the front of the card base using your favorite adhesive.
Next, cut a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock (2-7/8″ x 4-1/4″). Center and mount the coordinating DSP to the Calypso Coral cardstock. Wrap a strip of the Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon around the piece (refer to card photo – note: we’ll tie bow and add it after attaching the sentiment). Use a strong adhesive to add the layered piece to the card front.
On a 2-1/4″ square of Basic White cardstock, stamp the sentiment using Calypso Coral Classic Ink Pad. Note: I found it easiest to stamp the largest part of the sentiment first and then to add the “you’re as” smaller stamp sentiment last. After stamping, cut the label shape using the Tasteful Labels Dies (or your favorite die shape).
Stamp the small leaves using Pear Pizzazz on each side of the sentiment leaving room for adding the Loose Flower Flourishes embellishments. Add the embellishments using glue dots.
Add to the sentiment to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Complete the card by tying a bow using the Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and attaching the bow using glue dots.
Look for a variety of other projects featuring this bundle!

In my last post, I shared with you “the must have stamp bundle”. As promised, in this post, I am sharing four cards using the Many Messages bundle. You’ll notice from the cards that one uses designer series paper that is no longer available. How many times have you started a card design only to set it aside to complete later? That’s the case with the card with the Butterfly Bijou designer series paper. But that’s what’s wonderful about the Many Messages bundle! You can design card fronts, set them aside and then add a sentiment from Many Messages at a later time. Actually, all of the cards that I’m sharing are designs that were prepared without a specific sentiment planned. I assembled the fronts, set aside the embellishment pieces and later completed the cards by selecting precut Many Messages sentiments. Remember, there are 17 different sentiments that you can use…I’m only showing four!
Great news! The Many Messages bundle is in the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog so it’ll be around for awhile. Even better, there’s another stamp of sentiments that coordinates with the same die in the new catalog. Mark your calendar, ordering from the new catalog begins on May 4, 2021!
JUST A REMINDER…

While there are lots of beautiful stamp bundles in the Stampin’ Up! catalogs, there is one “must have” stamp bundle. You may wonder why I say it’s a “must have”. The reason – it’s all sentiments! I can’t count the number of times that I have created a card to spend what seems like hours searching for a sentiment. With the Many Messages bundle there are 19 (yes, 19!) sentiments for different occasions. Even better, the sentiments are one large cling stamp so you can stamp all the sentiments at once. The coordinating die makes it even simpler. There are a variety of shapes that line up to perfectly cut the sentiments. So, you’re able to stamp all the phrases at once, then cut them out with the coordinating die. Can’t get much easier than that! Below are a few tips for using the bundle.
Tips for using the Many Messages stamp and the coordinating die:
Use a Stamparatus for ease in re-inking and re-stamping the large stamp. This way you ensure re-stamping in the same location.
Notice, the small stars and heart on the die and the stamp set. These are the registration marks for using to ensure the die lines properly. Align the die with the registration marks and you get perfectly cut sentiments each time.
Use removable tape to hold the die in place before running through your die cutting machine.
Stamp using a variety of your favorite ink colors to have sentiments handy when you need to make a card quickly. (FYI…I store the cut sentiments in the clear envelope bags.)
In the photo below, Stampin’ Up! showcases several ways to use the sentiments. Stamp a background using the same ink color as cardstock, then add a few extra details and select the desired sentiment from the group to add to the card front. Or, group several sentiments to create a sentiment phrase. Lastly, use a single sentiment to complete your card.
In my next post, I’ll be sharing more cards using the “must have” stamp bundle! Be sure to register to receive new posts each week.
