Video Tutorial - How to Create three cards using the Happiest Day Stamp Set by Stampin Up! Laura Milligan

Here’s the first card.   Simple – a fun layout, the dragonfly could be switched out with a different image – leaf, flower, butterfly, etc.  Love the Spotlight on Nature die used for the word panel.

For the second card,  I wanted to play up the word stamp that mentions glitter, and thought it would be fun to use some of the 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Specialty Paper – another simple layout, but a bit different and fun!!  Always fun to try a different layout.

The third card is a monochromatic card featuring Pretty in Pink.  I love the frame and focal point – both die cut from the Wildflower Designs Dies.

For the first card, I showed how to use the embossing folder as it is – and how you would normally use it – just insert your cardstock into the folder and zip it through your Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.

Isn’t that little bee just adorable?  I love that the wings and antennas are created from the shape of a heart!  The punch just got much more versatile by taking on that double duty!
