One of my favorite bundles in the Jan-May 2025 Mini Catalog is the “Memorable Blooms Bundle”! This bundle has three great floral images with coordinating dies along with several great greetings. I absolutely love the Hexagon shaped die cut with stitching and border details. I created the card below and sent to customers for placing orders during SAB. Sadly, The Memorable Blooms bundle is scheduled to be retired. I was adding a link to this post for this geat bundle and discovered that the dies aren’t available, ugh! However, this card layout can accommodate many other shape dies to create a window on the front panel.
Honestly, this card was pretty simple to make. The “dies” in the “Memorable Blooms” bundle did most of the heaving lifting. I stamped the hexagon die cut with the script background stamp found in the “Elements of Text” stamp set. You can find the “Element of Text” stamp set in the On-line Exclusives. What a great staple stamp set to add to your collection.
I colored the floral image with “Stampin’ Blends” and placed up on “Dimensionals”. Cutting the “leaf spray” die cut into several pieces allowed me to tuck them behind the die cut floral piece. I stamped the greeting in Granny Apple Green and die cut with a tag die (retired). I added a “Baker’s Twine” bow in Lemon Lolly. The final touch was to add “Wink of Stella” to the flower centers to give them a subtle shimmer, so pretty!

This is my second post with the “Hearts of Elegance” Bundle.HERE was my first post with this product bundle. In February, I had time to play with this awesome bundle and created a few cards. However, lately, it seems that my days have been quite busy as I am again preparing for another local vendor event the first weekend in May. This particular bundle is found on the Stampin’ Up! website under “On-Line Exclusives”.
The “fold” of this card is at the two top edges of the “heart”. Basically, I placed the heart die just below the “fold” of the card stock before running it through the “Die Cut and Emboss Machine”. The smaller heart layer was die cut from the “Marbeled Elegance” DSP. I absolutely love the “pierced” border on this die as it adds great detail! I stamped the flowers and leaves from this stamp set and die cut those as well. The “tag” die is from the “Greetings of the Season” Dies which sadly are no longer available. However, you could substitute several other punched or diecut shapes for your greeting. A few of the items in the “Hearts of Elegance” suite of products are retiring and can be found on the “Last Chance” products. The stamp/die bundle along with the DSP are still available.
Here’s a view of the inside of this cute card. You can really see the “pierced” border on the white card stock. Absolutely loved how this super easy card turned out!
Celebrate Love Mix & Match Ephemera Pack
My second and last Valentine’s card uses the “Celebrate Love Mix & Match Ephemera Pack”. The card base is Bubble Bath with a Melon Mambo accent layer. Also, I used a few elements from the ephemera pack. I chose to color a few of the elements with Stampin’ Blends to lend a bit more interest and help create my focal point.
These Ephemera Packs contain numerous precut images that make creating cards easy peasy. Just let your imagination or vision guide you through the creating process! I absolutely loved the simplicity and ease in creating this card!
Quite embarrassed that it has taken me this long to post my samples using the “Hearts of Elegance” Bundle. I managed to create several cards for Valentine’s Day, but was quite busy with a vendor event and literally forgot to post my samples.
This first card uses the “Hearts of Elegance” Bundle, the “Marbeled Elegance” DSP and the “Gold Twisted Thread.” This “suite” of products are featured on the Stampin’ Up! website lunder “On-line Exclusives“. I absolutely love this set of “Dies” and the DSP and am hard pressed to pick which one is my favorite! This card also incorporates a “fun fold” so that when you open the card, you see both the front and the inside of the card. This “fun fold” is super easy!
I also used a few additional products when I created this sample. I used the “So Swirly” Embossing Folder on a narrow panel on the front left side of the card. The large “Tag” die is from “Greetings of the Season” Dies, which are currently on the “Last Chance Products” and offered at a 30% savings! You can find the “Gold Twisted Thread” and the “Gold Adhesive Backed Heart Sequins” on the Stampin’ Up! site under “On-Line Exclusives”. I also incorporated some “Gold Foil” Sheets behind the small DSP cut out heart. Here are two additional photos so that you can see the “fun fold” of this card.

My next card is super simple to create with the help of the “Hearts of Elegance” Bundle and another print from the “Marbled Elegance DSP”. To complete the card, I added a bow with the “Twisted Gold Thread” and a “Gold Adhesive Backed Heart Sequin”. I placed the front die cut panel up on “Dimensionals”.
This card turned out to be super simple and quite striking! Honestly, this entire “suite” of products are absolutely stunning and easy to create with!
