This A2 sized card features the Painted Seasons Stamp Set and the coordinating Four Seasons Dies from Stampin' Up!

Link to My Stampin' Up! Store

The flowers were stamped with the Painted Season Stamp Set onto Whisper White CS using Gorgeous Grape Ink.   The leaves from the same set were stamped onto Whisper White CS using Coastal Cabana ink.  They were cut out using the coordinating Four Seasons Dies.

I used a die from the Hummingbird Framelits to cut the center out of a piece of Whisper White CS for the top mat.  I attached it to a piece of water colored paper that I had on hand that seemed to coordinate with the stamped pieces.

The two butterflies are from the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and were stamped onto Whisper White CS and punched out with the Butterfly Duet Punch.  I colored the smaller butterfly with the Coastal Cabana Stampin' Write marker.

The sentiment is from the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and the cluster of little stars is from the Painted Seasons Stamp Set and they were both were stamped using Gorgeous Grape ink.

I attached the leaves and butterflies to the Top Map using Tombow Glue.  I popped up the flowers using Dimensionals.

The top mat was attached to bottom mat of Gorgeous Grape CS, and then to a White Card Base using Tape Runner.

This A2 size card features the By the Bay and Beautiful You Stamp Sets from Stampin' Up!.  I cased this card from one I saw on Pinterest by GT.

I began by stamping the large scene from the By the Bay Stamp Set on the top half of a bottom mat (5-1/4" x 4") piece of Highland Heather CS using Gorgeous Grape Ink.

I used a portion of the seagull stamps (which I have cut in half) from the High Tide Stamp Set in the upper right corner using Gorgeous Grape Ink.

Then using the same ink and CS, I stamped the dancing girl from the Beautiful You Stamp Set and fussy cut her.

I torn a piece of Whisper White CS and then ran it thru my Big Shot using the Corrugated Embossing folder.  The finished piece is about 2" high and was trimmed to 4"wide.

Then I cut a piece of Gorgeous Grape CS (1-1/4" x 4") and centered and glued with Tombow Glue to the Whisper White piece.

The sentiment is from the Beautiful You Stamp Set, it was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink, and was cut with one of the dies from the Lily Framelits.

The girl and the sentiment piece were popped up with Dimensionals to the GG CS strip.  And then the finished piece attached to a White Card Base using Tape Runner.

I added a few Rhinestones to finish off the front of the card.

This A2 size card features the Beauty Abounds Stamp Set and the coordinating Butterfly Beauty Thinlits from Stampin' Up!

Link to My Stampin' Up! Store

This is a really simple card to make, its really about the two large dies in the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits.

I cut the top die out of Bermuda Bay CS and the bottom die out of Mango Melody CS and then glued them together using Tombow glue.  It is a little tricky to get them aligned correctly - just takes time and patience, but I love the finished piece which I glued onto a top mat that I had on hand that was colored with Brusho Crystals.

That top mat was then attached to a Coastal Cabana CS bottom mat using Tape Runner, and then then attached to a Mango Melody CS Card Base.

The sentiment is from the Beauty Abounds Stamp Set and was stamped in Bermuda Bay ink onto Mango Melody CS and cut with a die from the Rose Garden Thinlits, and popped up with Dimensionals.

Link to My Stampin' Up! Store

The humming bird and flower were stamped onto Whisper White CS using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and cut out with the Hummingbird Framelits Dies.

The bird and flower were colored with Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, Daffodil Delight, and Rich Razzleberry Stampin' Blend Sets.

I used one of the dies from the Hummingbird Framelits to cut out the design in the center of the Whisper White CS top mat.  The piece of underneath the center section was a water colored background I had on hand.

I popped up the bird and flower with Dimensionals and then stamped the sentiment from the Humming Along Stamp Set in Bermuda Bay Ink.

The top mat was attached to a bottom mat of Rich Razzleberry CS using Tape Runner and then I added a few coordinating Enamel Shapes to finish the front of the card.

This A2 size card features the Petal Palette Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!

Link to My Stampin' Up! Store

The flower piece is from the Petal Palette Stamp Set and was stamped in Archival Black ink on Thick Whisper White CS.  The flowers were water colored with Elegant Eggplant and Pear Pizazz inks and then cut out with the coordinating die from the Petals & More Thinlits.

The sentiment is from the Dear Doily Stamp Set and was stamped in Gray Granite ink onto a circle of Pear Pizazz CS, that was cut out with one of the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies.

The Top Mat was stamped in Gray Granite ink with a wood block stamp from Inkadinkadoo #8347 that I got at JoAnn Fabrics.  I used a Sponge Dauber to outline the edges of the piece.

Both the flower and sentiment piece were popped up with Dimensionals onto the Top Mat and then glued to a Pear Pizzazz Bottom Mat.
