stampin’ fancy friday – online exclusives challenge…

07.15.2025…..Happy Tuesday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s an “Online Exclusives” challenge! Our team members each created a fancy project using any Online Exclusives products from the first launch to the most recent launch! Needless to say, this challenge is overflowing with lots of creativity and inspiration!

For my card, I used three Online Exclusives…..the Perfectly Pears Bundle, Elements of Text Stamp Set, and Blooming Phrases Stamp Set. To create the pears, I added Petal Pink and Flirty Flamingo to the pears, and Soft Sea Foam and Mossy Meadow for the leaves. To add a watercolor effect, I spritzed the stamps with a Stampin’ Spritzer (filled with water) before I stamped each image on Basic White Thick Cardstock.

Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have a total of 24 amazing projects to share this month, and each using their own unique interpretation of the challenge!

Then…..when you CASE one of our SFF teammates, share your project on IG or FB and tag us by using #stampinfancyfriday or #fancyfridaychallenges in your post. We will share in our stories to inspire others as well!


For this card, I started with Basic White Thick Cardstock, embossed it with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folders, and adhered it to a Gray Granite Cardstock base. To create the background, I used a Blending Brush to add Coastal Cabana to Basic White Thick Cardstock. I then used one of the Elements of Text Stamp Set, along with a Gray Granite Classic Stampin’ Pad, and stamped the image three times. I also added speckling with an Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Marker, and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it to the card base.

To create the pears, I used a Sponge Dauber to add Petal Pink and Flirty Flamingo to the pear image, and Soft Sea Foam and Mossy Meadow to the leaves image. To add a watercolor effect, I spritzed the stamps with a Stampin’ Spritzer (filled with water) before I stamped each image on Basic White Thick Cardstock. I then repeated this steps for each pear, cleaning off the stamp in between. I also used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the pears and leaves to the card base.

The sentiment (from the Blooming Phrases Stamp Set) was heat-embossing on Basic White Thick Cardstock, using a Versamark Pad and Gold Embossing Powder. For the bow, I used White 1/4″ Ribbon (cut in half lengthwise) and Linen Thread. For a bit of bling, I sprinkled on Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels and Iridescent Foil Gems.
