Dreamy Dragonflies and Botanicals with the Scalloped Wishes Bundle

Today I'm sharing a birthday card and coordinating name tag that showcase just how versatile the Scalloped Wishes Bundle truly is. From the delicate lacework details to the fussy cut vellum florals, this set has so much to offer!

For the card front, I started with a Basic White cardstock base and covered it with the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper. The soft lavender grid pattern on this vellum is just dreamy, and it sets the perfect tone for the whole design. Delicate dragonflies from the Scalloped Wishes stamp set were stamped in Secret Sea ink and scattered across the background, adding a whimsical, garden-in-summer feel. A few Sunset Sparkle Sequins were added throughout for a subtle, sparkling finish.

The sentiment label is where things really come together. I stamped the "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set in Bubble Bath ink, then added the intricate lace border detail from the Scalloped Wishes stamp set, also in Bubble Bath, around the outer edge of the label. The label was cut out using the Scalloped Wishes die, and the inner detailed oval was cut from Bubble Bath Pastel Shimmer Specialty Paper using the detailed Scalloped Wishes die, giving it that gorgeous layered, doily-like look.

To finish the focal piece, I fussy cut flowers from the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty DSP and adhered them onto the sentiment label using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A touch of Wink of Stella on the flower centers adds just the right sparkle and dimension. The whole bouquet clusters beautifully to the left of the sentiment, creating a lush, layered floral arrangement.


Inside the card, I kept things coordinated and elegant. The sentiment from the Framed All Around stamp set was stamped in Bubble Bath ink, and more dragonflies from the Scalloped Wishes stamp set were added in Secret Sea ink to carry the theme throughout.

Now let's talk about the name tag, because this little beauty shows just how many possibilities the Scalloped Wishes Bundle opens up! 

Using Basic White cardstock as the base, I cut the scalloped oval shape and layered it with Hydrangea Hue 2026-2028 In-Color Pearlized Specialty Paper for a soft, pearlized glow. The dot border detail was stamped in Hydrangea Hue ink to frame the design beautifully. The name "PAM" was cut using the Mini Alphabet dies from the Hydrangea Hue Pearlized Specialty Paper, giving the letters a lovely shimmery finish. Fussy cut vellum florals from the Berry Botanicals DSP were clustered on the left side of the tag, tying it perfectly back to the card it accompanies.

Whether you're making a full card or a little coordinating gift tag, the Scalloped Wishes Bundle delivers stunning results every single time. I hope this inspires you to pull yours out and get creating!

Summer Fun Blog Hop

Welcome to the Team Stamp It Groups Summer Fun Theme Blog Hop!

Whether you hopped onto my blog from one of my teammates or started with my blog, I'm awfully glad you "hopped" by.

Today I'm sharing a stunning Arrow Fun Fold anniversary card that practically made itself — because when your paper is this beautiful, it does most of the work for you!

I started with a Secret Sea cardstock card base, then layered on a Gorgeous Grape cardstock panel, which creates a rich, jewel-toned frame around the design. The top panels are cut from the breathtaking Violet Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper. This paper is absolutely gorgeous — deep navy with lush violet, lavender, and white botanicals. The Violet Dreams Suite Collection will be available for purchase on July 1, 2026.

For the sentiment, I stamped "happy anniversary" from the retired So In Love stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto a label from the Classic Labels Mix & Match Ephemera Pack. To add a little extra dimension and charm, I fussy cut some of the delicate violet blooms right from the Violet Dreams Specialty DSP and popped them onto the sentiment label using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, giving it a sweet layered, garden-fresh look. A few Adhesive-Backed Blooms (available July 1, 2026) scattered across the panels add just the right finishing touch.

Inside the card, the Arrow Fun Fold creates the same striking triangular design, this time framing a clean white panel stamped with the beautiful sentiment from the Phrases & Frames stamp set, inked in Gorgeous Grape: "Anniversaries are for celebrating the joys of today, the memories of yesterday, and the hopes of tomorrow." Such a meaningful message for such a special occasion.

This card is truly one of those designs that looks incredibly impressive but comes together beautifully. It would be perfect for any anniversary, and honestly, the Violet Dreams DSP is so stunning it would shine on any occasion!
