Sunshine & Tulips Project 1

I am not sure about you, but I love flowers. One of my favorite flowers are tulips. When I lived overseas I had the opportunity to explore Holland and while I was there I went to the annual Tulip Festival. The tulips were absolutely beautiful.

When I saw the Stampin’ Up Sunshine & Tulips bundle in the 2026 Spring Mini Catalog I knew I needed to get it. This last week I was able to create several projects using this fun bundle.

For this first project I used the following Stampin’ Up Color Combination:

Measurements:

Cardbase: 8.5″ x 5.5″ scored at 4.25″

Lemon Lime Layer: The large Sunshine & Tulip die cuts out this whole piece.

Sentiment Layer: The Sunshine & Tulip die cuts out the label.

Melon Mambo Layer (inside of card): 4″ x 5.25″

White Layer (inside of card): 3.75″ x 5″

You will need to die cut one piece of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and one piece of Melon Mambo cardstock with the large Sunshine & Tulip die.

I used mini Stampin’ dimensionals behind the Melon Mambo tulips to give the card more dimension. I used the regular Stampin’ dimensionals behind the sentiment label. Lastly, I used multipurpose glue to adhere the tiny bee trinkets to the card.

You will want to adhere an adhesive sheet to a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock (this will be used to die cut the outline of the tulips) and a piece of Garden Green cardstock (this will be used to die cut the leaves). You can use liquid glue for this step, but it is a thousand times easier and a lot more enjoyable to create this card if you use the adhesive sheets.

Supplies I used to create this fun card is below:

O Holy Night

The Stampin’ Up O Holy Night suite is just beautiful. This first card is one of the cards in the Stampin Up September – December 2023 Mini Catalog that when I saw it, I knew I would have to make it. I decided to use the Night of Navy & Gold 1/2″ inch ribbon behind the sentiment layer to add a little pizzaz to the card. For the card base I used Night of Navy cardstock, the sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy, the beautiful star was stamped on Boho Blue cardstock with Misty Moonlight ink.

This next card I had fun creating the Christmas Nativity scene. I chose to use various colors for it. I used Pebble Path cardstock for the shepherd, wise man, and sheep in the back area, Basic Black cardstock for Mary, Joseph, and the manger, Pecan Pie cardstock for the camel, Cajun Craze cardstock for the donkey, Very Vanilla cardstock for the two sheep in the front, Crumb Cake cardstock for the stable, Basic White cardstock for the deckled circle moon, and Boho Blue cardstock for the stars.

Below is a list of supplies I used to create these two beautiful cards:
