This week, I am sharing another card from the recent All About Tulips Class. It’s a Windmill Side Panel Step card. This is a fun card to make and though it looks complicated, it’s not. The only stamping is the sentiment. The remainder of design elements include the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper and die cuts! You’ll find all the components for the windmill in the Windmill Fields Dies. After prepping the materials, the assembly only takes a few minutes so it’s one of those projects where you can plan to make card multiples. Just cut the extra pieces and have everything ready to assemble at once. You’ll find the assembly video for the Windmill Side Panel Step Card and the project material dimensions below.
I hope you have fun creating this windmill and tulip inspired card. The Simple Suite Stampers are featuring Heart & Home Product Suite this month so in my next post, I’ll be sharing a project using the suite. Plus, I’ll have details on how you can get this month’s tutorials. Be sure to subscribe to receive my posts so you won’t miss out on the latest project ideas!

It was time for me to use the Flowering Tulips Bundle so for the recent card class, the theme was All About Tulips. What a fun bundle! And the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper provides a beautiful backdrop for a variety of card designs. The designer series paper is almost too pretty to cover! For this birthday card, the Flowering Tulips Bundle along with the designer paper creates a beautiful, cheerful card. The Tulips Dies create flowers with dimension for a perfect focal point. You can find the list of materials and an assembly video below on how to create the card, as well as, assemble the tulips.

Recently I was invited to join the Simple Suite Stampers. You may ask who are the Simple Suite Stampers and what’s it about? The Simple Suite Stampers is a design team of twelve Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators that create monthly tutorials. Each month a suite of products is chosen and each designer creates a simple project featuring items from the suite. For this month, the Sweet Talk Bundle is the feature. Even though Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, the tutorials feature inspiration for using the Sweet Talk Product Suite for different occasions. It’s easy to change sentiments to highlight the occasion you’re celebrating.
For my project, I opted to create an engagement card. The Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper is perfect for creating a wide variety of love themed projects.
Materials: (for full list of items used, scroll to Project Materials)
Pool Party Cardstock: 5-1/2 x 11 score and fold at 4-1/4″ for card base, 4-1/4″ x 3″ (layering piece), scraps for die cutting small flowers
Real Red Cardstock: 3″ x 3″
Basic White Cardstock: 3″ x 3/4″
Granny Apple Green Cardstock: Scrap for die cutting leaves
Designer Series Paper – Sweet Talk: 5-1/4″ x 4″; Stripe 4″ x 2-3/4″
Pool Party Sheer Ribbon
Instructions:
Create card base by layering as follows: large heart designer series paper, smaller rectangle of Pool Party Cardstock and on top, the striped Designer Series Paper panel.
Using the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing Folder and heart die, cut and emboss the piece of Real Red Cardstock.
Die cut 3 small flowers from a scrap of Pool Party Cardstock and 2 leaves from Granny Apple Green Cardstock.
Stamp the sentiment from the Love & Happiness Stamp Set onto the strip of Basic White Cardstock using black ink pad and use die to cut shape.
Center heart onto top panel of card. Using Dimensionals add the sentiment across the heart. Layer the flowers and leaves on the left side of the sentiment.
Embellish center of flowers with Basic Rhinestone Jewels.
Complete by adding a small bow tied with the Pool Party Sheer Ribbon

Today’s project features the Hello Ladybug Bundle in the Stampin’ Up! Jan-June 2022 Mini Catalog. The bundle includes the Hello Ladybug Photopolymer Stamp Set and a coordinating Ladybug Builder Punch. The punch enables you to quickly create projects. Did you know in folklore ladybugs are a sign of good luck? So, when a ladybug lands on you luck is coming your way! Another fact about ladybugs – the little beetles come in a variety of colors, not just red. Ladybugs can be orange, pink, yellow, white, and even black. Though I have only seen red ladybugs, knowing there are colorful varieties in nature made it fun when creating today’s card project. Of course, the great thing is you can select your favorite Stampin’ Up! colors and create your own unique ladybugs!
Card Materials:
Hello Ladybug Bundle (#157699)
Real Red Cardstock (#102482): base 4-1/4” x 11”, score at 4-1/4” and 5-1/2”; strip 7/8” x 3-3/4”
Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (#155426): 4” x 4” (Host Offering)
Basic White Cardstock (#159276): 3-3/4” x 3-3/4”; ¾” x 3-3/4” for sentiment plus scrap pieces for stamping ladybug wings and small ladybug
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad (#132708)
Classic Stampin’ Pads in the following colors:
Real Red (#147084)
Daffodil Delight (#147094)
Pumpkin Pie (#147086)
Polished Pink (#155712)
Balmy Blue (#147105)
Playful Pets Trim Combo Pack (#152466)
Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#158130)
Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive (#110755)
Stampin’ Dimensionals (##104430)
Assembly:
Create a book fold card base by folding along score lines on the card base. Use adhesive to seal the panel between the 4-1/4” score and the 5-1/2” score.
Add designer series paper panel to the card front panel.
Using Balmy Blue Classic Stampin’ Pad, randomly stamp flowers onto the Basic White cardstock 3-3/4” square panel. NOTE: Stamp off once onto a scrap paper and then stamp two times onto the Basic White before reinking the stamp.
Randomly stamp the large ladybug body onto the card using black ink. Attach to the card.
Stamp the wings and cut using the coordinating Ladybug Builder punch. Attach wings to the ladybugs on the card front.
Select sentiment and stamp onto strip of Basic White cardstock. Attach to the Real Red cardstock strip and then to the card front (refer to photo for placement).
Next, stamp the small ladybug and “fussy cut”. Add to the sentiment panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Finish by embellishing with ribbon along the side of the left panel and adding Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Let’s have some fun with the Butterflies & Flowers Layering Decorative Masks. You’ll find the decorative masks on page 65 in the Jan-Jun 2022 Mini Catalog from Stampin’ Up! It’s easy to overlook them but don’t! There’s lots you can do with the masks to create a variety of card fronts. I have created samples using two different Butterflies & Flowers Layering Decorative masks. Plus, you’ll see two different options for using the masks. One option uses a large floral mask to create a focal point for a card front and the other option uses the repeating small flower design to create a background. A list of materials for creating the cards is below, as well as, an assembly video. You’ll see how easy it is to create beautiful cards with the decorative masks.
