Lovely & Beautiful Wedding Card

The Lovely & Beautiful suite is probably my favorite in the 2026 Jan-April Mini Catalog. The Designer Series Paper is to die for, and I just can't stop making cards with this suite. Today I decided to make a wedding card in gold and white, as I love that combo for wedding cards (and my son happened to need one for a wedding he is in this upcoming weekend). It is such a classy pairing, but you could also use this card for a birthday or anniversary card. 

I also love the die that cuts out the 2 corner pieces and hadn't had a chance to use it yet. I think the overall effect is just stunning. If you want to watch me make this card, watch my Facebook Live below and don't forget to come back every Monday at 1 pm PST and watch me live on Facebook. Or subscribe to my YouTube station (still Stamp with Dr Robin) and they will let you know when I post.

Let's make this card! Gather your supplies:

  1. Thick Basic White cardstock—card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" on the long side and folded in half along the score line. 
  2. Basic White cardstock--Scrap for the sentiment, die cut with the smallest Beautifully Celebrated nesting dies
  3. Lovely & Beautiful DSP--3 3/4" by 5"
  4. Gold Foil--4" by 5 1/4", cut the backing for the sentiment (die cut with the second to smallest Beautifully Celebrated nesting dies) and the corner dies from the center of this piece
  5. Stamp set--Simply Beautiful, Delicate Whispers
  6. Dies--Beautifully Celebrated 
  7. Ink—Versamark/Gold Embossing Powder, Soft Seafoam
  8. White with Gold Ribbon
  9. Embellishments--Pearlized Faceted Circles
  10. Basic supplies--Bone folder, Paper Snips, adhesive (I like Multipurpose Glue and Seal+), Paper Trimmer, Stamp, Cut and Emboss Machine, Take Your Pick Tool,  Piercing Mat or Glass Mat Studio, Regular Dimensionals, embossing supplies (embossing buddy, Versamark and heat gun), Tear 'N Tape

Make sure you die cut the sentiment backing and the 2 corner pieces from the gold foil before attaching it to the front of the card base. Then attach the DSP and the gold corner pieces. 

Emboss the sentiment from  Simply Beautiful onto the small Basic White die cut. Remember to use your embossing buddy prior to stamping in Versamark, adding your gold embossing powder then using your heat gun. Attach this to the gold die cut. 

Zig-zag the ribbon and hold it down with Tear 'N Tape or double sided tape. Attach the sentiment using Dimensionals.

For the inside, use the sentiment from Delicate Whispers (a new bundle coming 3/3) on the inside embossed in Gold Embossing Powder. Use the leaves from Simply Beautiful stamped twice in Soft Seafoam ink.

  3rd Charming Duck Pond Post This card is a modified gate-fold card as the left front is just 1 1/4". I love how you can use most of the page of the 6" by 6" piece of DSP scenery to make this card. Sometimes I use the back side for the little pieces, but this time I used a separate piece of DSP with just the rushes on it. Enjoy!

  Floating Christmas Tree So if you make a lot of holiday cards like I do, it is time to start working on them! I know, I know, we haven't had Halloween yet, but if you want to send them out before the holiday it is time to get working. And this lovely card was inspired by someone else (sorry I just took a picture of it but there was no name on it so I can't thank you) who used her scraps to make the tree. I took it one step further and made a floating scraps tree. I've been wanting to make a card with this technique for a while and I knew this tree would look fabulous like this. And the second bonus is that I got to use up a ton of Lights Aglow scraps, even the small ones. All you need to do is cut your scraps into 1/2" pieces, attach them to a piece of window sheet and then cut out whatever shape you like. What an amazing way to use up something you might have otherwise thrown out. Win! Win! If you get lost making this card, or you are just a visual learner, please w...

Gingerbread Man & Woman Aren't these gingerbread man and woman just so cute? They are from the new 2025 Sept-Dec Mini Catalog that goes live to everyone at midnight 9/3/25. I am sure they are going to be a big seller, so get yours quickly before they sell out (just my prediction). The stamp set has lots of different expressions for our little gingerbread person, and the dies have many different objects for them to hold, but the cutest part of the bundle is that the die cuts 2 gingerbread men that you fold in half to make a card that can open.  This set is called Gingerbread Man, but I just had to see if I could make a gingerbread woman as he seemed to need a girlfriend. I don't know if you can tell, but her skirt is made from one of the Coneflower Celebrations dies cut from both Real Red and Garden Green cardstock. I'm sure whomever thought up those dies never thought they'd be used like this.  Let's make this card! Gather your supplies: 1. Thick Basic White car...
