This week’s challenge is an inspiration challenge which I was inspired to create with the Extraordinary Life bundle. I used for the background Kintsugi DSP then added die cuts from the bundle. This card was super simple to make.
I love the Florals in Bloom Suite so much I had to create another card with this suite based on Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration challenge. I used page 40 of the Stampin’ Up 2025-2026 to CASE the Lovely card.

Sending Happy Thoughts With Winterly Tree Tops Card
My spring card was inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration challenge. What image inspires you? The flowers inspired me to stamp with the Inspirational Sketches stamp set. I used the Darling Details Dies to create the frame for the flowers and used paper from the Sale-a-bration Flight and Airy DSP paper.
The flowers were stamped with Memento Black then water-colored with Bubble Bath ink, Soft Seafoam and Garden Green. I then fussy cut the flower twice and adhered them with dimensionals to create depth. I also embellished with Wink of Stella and basic rhinestones colored with Bubble Bath and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends.
I framed the image with the die from Darling Details set. and adhered with dimensionals.

This week’s inspiration comes from Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch. When I saw the circle in the sketch I new immediately I wanted to use the pumpkin from the Hello Harvest bundle and the beautiful Rustic Harvest paper.
The card base is black and used the paper with pumpkins and Crushed Curry print for my card. I stamped the pumpkin in Memento Black and colored it with light and dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends then die cut it and also the vines in Mossy Meadow. The sunflowers I also stamped in Memento Black and colored with light and dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends then die cut with sunflower die. The leaves I stamped in Mossy Meadow and Soft Suede and also die cut with leaf die. The little acorn is die cut from Early Espresso and Soft Suede using the Tree Rings Hybrid Embossing set. The sentiment is also from the Hello Harvest stamp set. I used Mossy Meadow linen trim and gold from the Simply Elegant Trim.
For the inside of the card I stamped a sunflower and flourish. I also used a strip of the dsp at the bottom.
The color challenge this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments is with the 2022 – 2024 Stampin’ Up! In Colors. Use 3 or all 5 In-Colors. It’s up to you. I love all the colors so I decided to use all 5 and use the Nature’s Print bundle.
I started with a Basic White card base. The second layer I embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. I then stamped foliage in the different In-Colors. The sentiment I stamped in Sweet Sorbet then die cut with the circle Stitched Shapes dies I also die cut leaf foliage in Starry Night and the tag layer behind the sentiments in Orchid Oasis. I also used a bit of the Parakeet Party metallic ribbon and embellished with Sweet Sorbet, Parakeet Party an Tahitian Tide 2022-2024 In Color Color Matte Decorative Dots.
My card this week is inspired by the Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge and Nature’s Prints bundle. The Nature’s Bundle is part of the Sun Prints Suite. A new suite from the new annual catalog. The Starry Night layer I embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder as well as the Gray Granite layer. The tag layer is die cut with the Banners Pick a Punch from the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper. The foliage were stamped in Pacific Point, Night of Navy and Gray Granite then die cut with Natural Prints Dies. The smaller leaves were die cut from Silver foil. The sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy then die cut with smallest circle from retired Stitched Shapes and embellished with silver trim.

My card was inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge. This sketch has a tag layer which is so fun! I created my card with colors Highland Heather, Cinnamon Cider and Pale Papaya. First I started with a Basic White card base followed by, Cinnamon Cider then DSP from the Hand-Penned collection. I die cut the largest tag from the Tailor Made Tags dies then stamped the blossoms with Highland Heather. I stamped another blossoms image on Basic White with Memento Black then colored with Highland Heather light and dark and light Old Olive Stampin’ Blend Pens. I die cut branches from brushed gold foil with the Sprigs punch. I also used dies to die cut foliage from the Sunflower dies.
