Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight with Thoughtful Expressions
The card I am sharing is a called a Floating Center Fun Fold or that’s what I am calling it. It is created using Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight stamp set (retiring very soon) and a new stamp set from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, Thoughtful Expressions. I also use the Splash 3D Embossing Folder from the soon to be retired Stripes and Splatters 3D Embossing Folders.
These are the card cuts you will need to create this card.

I am entering the Tic, Tac, Toe Challenge for this card. I went down the left side, across the bottom, and diagonally, I realized when posting the card.
On the two pieces of Basic White cardstock that measure 2-1/2″ x 4″ stamps flowers using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight stamp set. Color the flowers using a Real Red Stampin’ Blends and the leaves using Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends.
On the piece Basic White cardstock that measures 4″ x 5-1/4″ (this is the back panel) repeat the above instruction.
Stamp the hummingbird on the piece of Basic White cardstock that measures 3-1/4″ x 2-3/4″. Color using Real Red, Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends.
Using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set stamp the greeting in Memento Black ink. Stamp the sentiment on the panel that will become the floating center panel using a sentiment of your choice. Mine is from a long retired stamp set.
Emboss the Basic White piece that measure 2″ x 5-3/8″ using an embossing folder of your choice. I use the Splash folder from Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folders.
This is a view of the card from overhead once you have scored, folded and inserted the support for the floating center panel.
Adhere the embossed piece to the front left panel of the card.
Mat the two pieces of Basic White cardstock that measure 2-5/8″ x 4″ to the Bobo Blue mats that measure 2-3/4″ x 4-1/8″ then adhere one to the embossed panel on the card front and the other to the support for the floating center panel.
Adhere the hummingbird from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set to the front panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Pop the Misty Moonlight Gems from Tinsel Gems Three Pack around the card front and inside on the floating center panel.
Adhered the Basic White back panel to the Boho Blue mat and adhere to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
