Stampin’ Up Coneflower Celebrations Card Ideas

The Coneflower Celebrations stamp and die set is timeless and can be used for almost any occasion. That makes it a great staple stamp set to have in your stamping library.

For each card I made I just used a rectangular stitched die as my background die. This one in particular is from Queen & Co.

I used different papers from the Paper Roses, Maya’s Garden collection. These were from the 6×6 paper pad.

I loved the color scheme and wanted something that had some yellow in it to complement the flowers leaves.

I stamped the sentiment directly onto the background paper for these cards.

Some cards were left blank, so I can either add an appropriate sentiment later or just use them as a general blank card. The butterfly is an added sweet touch for the cards, but could also be left off.

House Mouse Card Ideas

I bought these 2 House Mouse stamp sets on Whatnot. There are great craft shows there, and I find great deals, too.

Have a Very Mice Birthday House Mouse Card

This stamp features a cupcake with four candles and 4 little mice. One of the mice is lighting a candle with a match. It is so easy to customize this cupcake for any color scheme. It is a big enough stamp that it needs to be a horizontal card design.

I used a scalloped rectangular foundation die from Queen & Co for the border around the stamp. I coordinated my paper colors to the colors on the stamp.

Sending Mice Wishes

This stamp features a little mouse relaxing in my acorn shell boat. It can be used for so many occasions. I liked the basic “sending mice wishes” so I can use it for a variety of occasions.

I used floral and dots paper for the card with the stamp centered inside a zig zag circle.

Do you love House Mouse stamps? I would love to see your designs!

Pink & Main One for the Books Card Ideas

I am no Monet, and coloring tiny details is hard for me to do well, LOL. So I liked the One for the Books stamp because it was a large size with few tiny details. Reading is so popular that this set will be great for lots of occasions.

One for the Books Card #1

The first card is a horizontal card with a basic rectangle frame die that features the books in the center. I used a lot of floral paper from my stash for these cards.

One for the Books Card #2

A large center circle highlights the book stamp. I used floral and polka dot papers for this card. I use the Foundation Dies from Queen & Company for all the background dies.

One for the Books Card #3

I love the reds and blues I chose for this One for the Books card. The angled look is a fun change. A small banner on the upper left corner finishes the look.

One for the Books Card #4

Pinks, blues, and yellows are the focal colors for Card #4. It is another horizontal card. A large circle features the stamped books.

One for the Books Card #5

Big florals and strips are the coordinating patterned paper used for card #5.

Have you tried any Pink & Main stamp sets before? They have some really cute sets that I couldn’t pass on.

Pink & Main April Cat Card Ideas

There were so many lovely stamp sets in the Pink & Main April release (2026) this year. I ordered more than I should have, LOL.

April Cat Card Idea #1

The first card I made is super simple and great for beginning card makers. I used a basic dot-grid embossing folder to create the card’s background. I picked some paper from my stash for this background and felt it matched the colors of the books on the stamp.

April Cat Card Idea #2, #3, #4

The other three cards I made have the same basic design. I used the Pretty Pink Posh Torn Rectangle Dies to cut out the 2 mats for the card. I used different coordinating paper from my stash.

I adhered the die-cut stamped image of the cat with the stack of books and the sentiment with liquid glue adhesive. I decided to leave most of my cat’s white because I like the look of the white cat contrast with the other colors.

I love that this April Cat set has companion dies so I don’t have to fussy cut. It also very easy to pick any color scheme you want for the card. If you are super creative you can color the cats in very unique ways.

Do you have this Pink & Main April Cat stamp & die set? I would love to hear about the cards you have made with it!

Boardwalk Fun Card Ideas

This stamp and die set comes with everything you need to make lots of cards. The sentiments are great for a couple of different themes. Here are the sentiments included:

• Celebrate
• Hey Sunshine
• Happy Birthday
• Enjoy the Ride

You can also use other sentiment stamps you already have on hand.

Card One with Boardwalk Fun

The first card I will highlight is one that features PALM TREES! The sentiment I used was “Hey Sunshine”. I know it will be perfect to send to my sister or a friend in Florida. The paper used for this card came from my stash.

I used the palm tree stamps and then added the sentiment. This was a quick and easy card!

Card Two & Three with the Roller Coaster

This roller coaster reminds me of one at a local theme park that was in business when I was a kid. It has long since closed, but I still remember and miss it. I used the coaster and some palm trees layered on both cards.

The ticket die is very versatile and makes the perfect place to stamp a sentiment. I used “Celebrate” on this first card. I added the coaster cars die to match the ticket paper for some color coordination.

The second card I left the coaster cars black. I used the sentiment “Enjoy the Ride” and will use this for birthdays.

Cards Three & Four with a Ferris Wheel

Adding in the ferris wheel was so much fun. It looks so cute on the cards. I can also use it on vacation scrapbook layouts. The first card has hot pink as the coordinating color.

The second card is identical, with different colors and more bling!

Hope these cards give you a little bit of inspiration when you use the Stampin’ Up Boardwalk Fun set. I would love to see what you make!

Silly Safari Stamp Set Card Creations

My first time using this set had me making one card after another. I couldn’t put the stamp set down! Keep scrolling to see a close up of each card. I used paper I had on hand to create the cards.

Silly Safari Card One

The first card features a giraffe framed in an oval of greenery. A gold metallic scallopped border adds some bling to the card. The bottom section is a white and gold patterned paper.

I left this card without a sentiment so it could be used for anything! Sometimes I leave the sentiment off the front and put one inside.

Card Two From Silly Safari

The second card features the sweet little monkey. He is positioned inside a scallopped circle. I used greenery paper coordinated with green polka dots and some bright orange. The sentiment was so fun!

Silly Safari Card Three

This card features the zebra. I decided to use metallic purple as a coordinating color for some fun. Another special aspect of this card is that the zebra circle is on a wobbler so it bounces around! I love wobblers!!

Card Four with Silly Safari Stamp Set

This card features the rhino. My husband collects rhino so I decided to make a card for him! The sentiment I used was not part of the Silly Safari Stamp Set. I already had a stamp set with “love” themed sentiments.

Silly Safari Card Five

I featured the Cheetah stamp. After I put this card together I decided I didn’t love the pattern papers I chose. BUT…that is OKAY! Not every card can be our favorite.

Card Six with Silly Safari Stamp Set

Another fun giraffe card! I just love the giraffe and he looks so sweet in the oval cut out. This one has the sentiment included for an easy thank you card.

Silly Safari Card Seven

Card number seven features the monkey in a horizontal card. This card is for the party animal in your life!

Card Eight with Silly Safari

The last card is another giraffe thank you card. I just love having plenty of thank you cards on hand at all times and I couldn’t resist making another giraffe card. This time I cut out just his head using the 1 7/8 circle punch from Stampin’ Up.

Which card is your favorite? Do you have this stamp set? You will love it!

SUPPLIES USED

One of my new favorite card-making shops is Pretty Pink Posh. They have such cute stamp sets and accessories. This is where I bought the set to make these sweet Dinosaur Christmas Cards.

DINOSAUR CHRISTMAS CARDS

When I make cards from a specific set, I like to stamp the images multiple times and do all my coloring at the same time.

I love how each dinosaur has a Christmas theme, whether it is a Santa hat, scarf, or even Christmas lights. This brings the Christmas cheer to every stamped image.

I decided to color my dinosaurs all sorts of fun and bright colors. Don’t feel limited to only Christmas colors. I did keep some red/green on each card to bring in the colors from the Christmas paper.

Some of the sentiments were stamped directly onto the card, and some were stamped onto a piece that was die-cut and added to the card.

This stamp set only came with one sentiment: Merry Rex-Mas. You could always use Christmas-themed sentiments from other stamp sets you may have on hand. I loved the sentiment included and used it for each card I made.

I added some bling embellishments to the cards to make them pop!

The stamp sets from Pretty Pink Posh are photopolymer clear stamps and are great quality stamps.

The card right above this paragraph is a design that I saw on the Pretty Pink Posh website in their gallery. I scrap-lifted the design because I liked how many dinosaurs were added to the card.

The stamp set included some small stamps, such as the holly leaves shown above. There is also a tiny star stamp and some leaves and berries.

Flamazing Flamingos Card Ideas

Collections are so helpful to me. I love being able to buy paper, dies, and stamps that all coordinate. It eliminates a lot of guesswork from my papercrafting. As soon as I saw the Crafter’s Companion Flamazing Flamingos collection I knew I had to have it.

The colors are bright and beautiful. The paper is so fun with the pretty flamingos. I also really loved the sentiment stamps…so cute.

Flamingo Card #1

This card was made using flamingos on the cardstock paper. I placed my die over the paper right where I wanted the flamingos to be. I added the “happy bird day” sentiment.

Flamazing Flamingo Card #2

This card features a big banner under the top layer. I used the cardstock flamingos again and added the sentiment, “be flamazing”.

Flamingo #3

A horizontal card utilizing the beautiful cardstock. The sentiment used was “embrace your inner flamingo”.

Flamazing Flamingo Card #4

Another fun bird-themed day card that features the large flamingo stamp from the collection.

Flamingo Card #5

I colored the flamingo stamp and added the “be flamazing” sentiment.

Flamingo Card #6

I decided to do one more colored flamingo card and left it blank with no sentiment. It is always nice to have some blank cards on hand.

Pumpkin Halloween Cards

Using a card cover die makes card-making really fast in my opinion. I decided to experiment with mismatched colors and textures.

This cover die features 6 pumpkin cut-outs. These cards are simple yet adorable.

Supplies Used

These cards took minimal supplies. Perfect cards to grab paper from your stash pile.

• Pretty Pink Posh Pumpkin Cover Plate Die
• Pretty Pink Posh Halloween Corners Stamps (sentiments)
• Cardstock
• Blank cards
• Adhesive

Purple & Black Card

I grabbed some bright purple Crafters Companion glitter paper (this paper is awesome because the glitter stays on the paper!). I made the card base black and the pumpkins glittery purple. The sentiment “ghostly greetings” was added at the bottom.

Purple & Black & Orange Card

This card has a base of purple glitter paper. Then I added the pumpkins in orange and black. The sentiment was “spooky wishes”.

Orange & Pink Card

The base of this card is orange cardstock. The pumpkins are hot pink. I like how the white shows through on some pumpkins and ties in the sentiment.

Pink & Orange Card

I used the extra pieces to make another card that is the opposite of the orange and pink card. This one has a hot pink base and orange pumpkins.
