Recently I collaborated with 6 other Stampin' Up! demonstrators to host a virtual retreat (that I thought was a LOT of fun). We kicked off our event with a "mystery stamping" evening where we followed directions (or not) to create a card. I love how different everyone's are but how you can see the theme throughout.
I used the Impressions Abloom bundle and added Garden Green, Timid Tiger, and Strawberry Slush cardstock.
An extra strip of DSP finished off the inside.
Did you know that Flip Flaps can be used on cards too? I made a fun shaker card by adding a flip flap to my card. (Sorry for the glare.)
I used the Celebratory Sips DSP (and cut out a drink from the paper to shake around in the flap) and added a scrap of Full of Life DSP that coordinated nicely. I added some sequins from my stash (and they will fall out of the flap but are easy to put back in if necessary).
Does the arch die look a little like a glass to you? I added a leaf garnish die cut from the Impressions Abloom bundle and stamped Celebrate in Blackberry Ink from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set.
The adhesive strip of the flip flap is on the inside of the card base and under the white liner (not on the back of the card). Don't forget to accent the inside of your card and the coordinating envelope to make your project extra special!
Here is another card made with the Beautiful Gallery suite, featuring the Beautiful Motifs dies and coordinating stamp set. (Remember, all suite items are on sale BOGO 50% off this month only!)
Be sure to add a Very Vanilla stamped panel to the inside of the card and stamp the envelop too!
NOTE: This suite and its products will be on sale (BOGO 50%) starting 6/3 and running through the end of the month!
This simple cards uses the gorgeous fern die cut from the Beautiful Motifs dies. I cut it three times, twice on each side of Olive Two-Tone cardstock and once on Old Olive Seasons of Elegance DSP. If you look closely, you can see a few gold flecks on the Seasons of Elegance DSP.
I stamped the sentiment with Old Olive on the front of this Very Vanilla panel, attached a Basic Beige ribbon bow, and then added the panel to the front of a Mossy Meadow card base. Honestly, I love the simplicity and beauty of this card. I hope that you do, too!

This card was inspired by another demonstrator's card. To me, it looks like three windows looking out at the sea.
To create this card, I cut three arches out of one piece of the boating scene of Beautiful Gallery 6"x6" DSP (cut down to 5.25"x4"). I then cut three arches of the next larger die out of Pecan Pie cardstock, then layered the arches onto the back of the DSP. Three Pressed Flower Motifs gems finished off the card front which was adhered to a Very Vanilla card base.
Not shown, but I added a strip of the DSP to the inside of the card to finish it nicely.

The Beautiful Gallery suite is absolutely gorgeous! I enjoyed making this simple card with a floral pattern from the Beautiful Gallery 6"x6" DSP framed with Very Vanilla die cut with the Gallery Blooms dies.
I will be featuring this suite in my July classes, at my home or yours. I am also going to be working on a heritage album with this suite. Is anyone interested in joining me?
