SIMPLE BLOOM BOUTIQUE BIRTHDAY CARD

Today’s card features the Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper along with the Banner Sayings and Extrodinary Flora Bundles.  This card is a quick and easy card and perfect when you need to create several cards fast.  Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Hydrangea Hue cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I added a layer of the Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper that measured 4 x 5 ¼”.  I cut a circle out of a scrap of Hydrangea Hue cardstock using one of the Spotlight on Nature Dies and added it to the center of the card with Dimensionals.  I stamped two of the flower bundles from the Extraordinary Flora Bundle (I love this set because you stamp a whole bunch of images at one time and die cut them with one die.  They are perfect to keep around in a little bag to add quickly to any project) onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using VersaMark Ink.  I used the Metallics Stampin’ Embossing Powder (gold) and heat embossed them.  When that was done, I used the single die to cut them all apart and picked a couple for the card.  I used my Blending Pen to add Hydrangea Hue, Soft Seafoam and Daffodil Delight Ink onto the flowers and attached them to the circle.

For my sentiment I stamped “Happy Birthday” from the Banner Sayings Bundle onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Hydrangea Hue Ink.  I used the coordinating banner punch and punched it out.  I also punched out another banner from a Gold Foil Sheet and cut it in half and attached it to the back of the sentiment allowing a little to stick out from each side.  I added this to the center of the circle.  For the inside I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and added a little strip of the DSP that measured ½ x 4” to the bottom of it.

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:

SCENIC COAST FUN FOLD

Today’s card features the Sunset Coast Stamp Set along with the Scenic Coast 6 x 6” Specialty Designer Series Paper.  This paper has been very popular and has sold out several times.  I am happy to say it is currently back in stock.  I love working with it and here is what I came up with today…

The card base is Melon Mambo cardstock cut to 8 1/4 x 4 ¼” and scored at 5 1/2".   I added a layer of Balmy Blue to the inside that measures 4 x 5 ¼” and a layer to the front flap that measures 2 ½ x 4”.  I added a layer of the Scenic Coast DSP to the front flap that measured 2 ¼ x 3 ¾”.  Then it was time to make my top panel.

I cut a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock to 2 ¾ x 4 ¼” and to that I added a layer of Balmy Blue cardstock that measured 2 ½ x 4”.  On top of that I added a layer of that beautiful Designer Series Paper that measured 2 x 3 ¾”.  I attached this layer to the center of my card being sure to adhere it only to the left flap so the card would open.  I stamped my sentiment “Where this note finds you…” from the Sunset Coast Stamp Set onto a scrap of Balmy Blue cardstock using Secret Sea Ink and then fussy cut it out.  I added this to the bottom left of my top flap using Dimensionals.  I added an anchor embellishment (this is from my retired product stash but there are cute anchor embellishments that go with this suite of products that you can order) and finished it off by adding a triple bow made from Linen Thread and adhered with a Mini Glue Dot.

For the inside I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 2 ¾ x 4 ¼” and stamped the sentiment “…I hope it finds you happy!”, also from the Sunset Coast Stamp Set onto the top center with Secret Sea Ink.  I added a little strip of the DSP that measured ½ x 4 ¼” to the bottom of the piece as well.  I adhered this directly behind the front flap so it would not show when the card was closed. 

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:

IN COLOR ALL AFLUTTER

Today I am sharing a set of five cards created using the All Aflutter Bundle and all of the 2026 – 2028 In Colors.  I saw this card done in Crisp Cantaloupe on Pinterest, it was created by Stamp With Susie.  I love the color (I loved it several years ago when it was one of the Stampin’ Up! colors so I am super happy they brought it back) but I immediately thought why not create an entire set of these cards using the five new in colors.  Here is what I came up with…

The card bases are each of the five in color cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  The center rear piece is a piece of the Heirloom Boutique Two-Tone Cardstock, the light side (it is 2 12 x 12” sheets of each of the five colors with one light side and one dark side) cut to 2 ¼ x 5 ½” and embossed (I used a retired folder you can use any folder you want to use or just don’t emboss it, it’s up to you).  I adhered that piece to the center of each card.  I added two pieces of the 2026 – 2028 In Color Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper.  The stripe piece measures 2 x 4 ½” and the dot piece measures 1 ¾ x 4”. 

Next, I cut another piece of the Heirloom Boutique Two-Tone Cardstock to 1 x 4” and stamped my sentiment “fluttering by to say hi” on the light side using the coordinating-colored ink.  (NOTE:  For the Barely Blush I found the ink too light to show up so I used Bubble bath for the sentiment and the detailed layer of the butterflies).  I added this to y card about an inch from the bottom.  I used my 2” Circle Punch and punched out a circle from Basic White cardstock for all five cards and adhered them to the front of the cards.  I used scraps of Basic White and stamped my butterflies.  I stamped the detailed stamp first using full colored ink (with the pink I did use Bubble Bath for this one) and then stamped the background color using the same color just stamped off once (for the pink I did use the Barely Blush Ink for this stamp).  I used the coordinating punch to punch out my butterflies and then added them to the circle using Dimensionals.

To finish off the cards I added square knot bows made from the coordinating Bordered Ribbons in the five in-colors.  I also added three of the Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.  For the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and stamped the four little butterflies from the stamp set on each with the coordinating ink. 

I hope you enjoy these cards I certainly enjoyed making them.  As always, you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:

MOONLIT FLORA SYMPATHY CARD

Today’s card features the beautiful Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper and the Fern & Flora Bundle.  I have really enjoyed using this paper so I decided to use it for one of those cards we all need but none of us really look forward to creating, a Sympathy Card.  Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Berry Burst cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I cut a layer of Old Olive to 4 x 5 ¼” and embossed it with a retired fern embossing folder (I have been waiting for the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder to come back into stock and I can happily say I got an email saying it is back so it will be on my next order.  I will add the number for it at the bottom for those interested).  Then I cut two pieces of Berry Burst cardstock to 2 ¼ x 4 ¼” and added two pieces of the Moonlit Flora DSP that measured 2 x 4” to them (I chose the berry burst design and one with flowers that have just a touch of the berry burst in them).  Once those were mounted on the mats, I added one to the right side of the card about ¼” from the side and ¼” from the top.  I added the second one on the left side ¼” from the left side and ¼” from the bottom.

With those in place I wrapped they embossed layer with a piece of Berry Burst Shiny Ribbon and attached it behind the layer and then adhered the layer to my card base.  Using the dies from the Fern & Flora Bundle I die cut the large fern from a scrap of Mossy Meadow cardstock, the fiddlehead from a scrap of Berry Burst cardstock and the little foliage piece from a scrap of Old Olive cardstock.  I stamped my sentiment “Sending you Hugs” and the border from the Fern & Flora Stamp Set onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Berry Burst Ink.  I added the sentiment with Dimensionals and then tucked my fern, fiddlehead and foliage piece behind it.

For the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and stamped my sentiment “Sending prayers and heartfelt sympathy to you and your family.” from the Phrases & Frames Stamp Set in Berry Burst Ink. 

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:
