Love is a pretty cool thing – it can be romantic, friendly or supportive. We tend to associate hearts with Valentine’s Day, but they can be a perfect shape for cards throughout the year. Hearts can be used on “happy for you” cards or “thinking about you” cards or even “thank you” cards. There’s a really fun heart (and some other shapes) in one of the stand-alone die sets in Stampin’ Up!’s 2022 Annual Catalog. That heart inspired today’s card:
Let’s start by taking a look at the Brushed Shapes Dies. There are some really fun shapes in this set of dies – three hearts, some circles and some squiggles. Such fun! Here’s a look at the images in this stand-alone set of dies:
Here’s a closer look at the layered die cuts on my card:
As with last year’s Annual Catalog, this year’s book features some new sets of dies that aren’t tied to a bundle – each set of dies is featured in various projects throughout the catalog, but the images of these stand-alone dies are only shown between pages 169 and 175. As you work up your next order, I hope you’ll carefully reference those pages. To make it easier for you, here’s a look at these stand-alone dies (you can click on the images to see these products in my online store):
I love the new patterns of 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Papers – here’s a look at the 2021-2023 In Colors 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Papers, including Fresh Freesia used on today’s card:
I love the mix of rich red and soft purple – there’s something about it that should work, but it does. It’s sweet, right?! If you like this mix of Basic White, Fresh Freesia and Cherry Cobbler as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:

Thank you ! I often overlook the stand alone dies in the catalog . Plus, I have been wondering how this set you used looks on a card and I like it ! This set is a quick card making set !
I like how you used them !!
Exactly the reason I fell in love with these dies. Awesome modern shapes with so many creative possibilities. Love this card!
Love how you stamped the words across the background plaid! Awesome card!
I was so taken with the diecuts that I missed your clever stamping across the DSP. Altogether they make a beautiful card. As you say, hearts can be so versatile. Enjoy your day!
Great card. Love how you “bumped up” the DSP.
Total sweetness! Loving those dies!
