Stampin’ Up! Lily Of The Valley Birthday Card With Video Tutorial

I used the beautiful Lily Of The Valley stamp set bundle from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! May-August 2026 Catalog to create a birthday card to share with you today.  I also did a video tutorial showing you how to create this on my YouTube channel right here.

Stampin' Up! Lily Of The Valley Birthday Card

The florals on my card were inspired by the Just Us Girls Challenge #817.

I started by applying small pieces of Adhesive Sheets to the back of a panel of Basic White card stock.  I cut the panel with the crosshatch die from the Lily Of The Valley Dies (available May 5) two times.  Then I used a Small Blending Brush to apply Gray Granite ink to the die cut pieces.  I used the Adhesive Sheets to adhere the die cuts to the Thick Basic White card base.  Then I cut a panel of Vellum Specialty Paper (Online Exclusive item) with one of the Sweet Words & Labels Dies (Online Exclusive item available May 5).

Stampin' Up! Lily Of The Valley Birthday Card

I stamped the lily image from the Lily Of The Valley stamp set (available May 5) three times in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  Then I colored the leaves and flowers with Light and Dark Lemon Lime Twist and Darling Duckling Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I used the Color Lifter to soften and lighten the coloring on the flowers and then cut the images out with the coordinating Lily Of The Valley Dies.  I adhered the die cuts to the vellum die cut with Mini Glue Dots and then adhered the layered panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (hidden under the focal images).

I adhered a small length of Gray Granite 1/4″ Variegated Trim (Online Exclusive item) in a wide “z” on the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  I stamped the sentiment from the Lily Of The Valley stamp set in Gray Granite ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then cut around it with one of the Sweet Words & Labels Dies.  I adhered the die cut sentiment to a panel of Valley In Bloom DSP (available May 5) that had been cut with another one of the Sweet Words & Labels Dies with Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the layered panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then added three Shimmering Dots (available May 5) to finish the card front.

Stampin' Up! Lily Of The Valley Birthday Card

I stamped the sentiment from the Lily Of The Valley stamp set in Gray Granite ink and the flower image in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  I colored the floral image with Light and Dark Lemon Lime Twist and Darling Duckling Stampin’ Blends Markers to finish the inside of the card.
