Plentiful Plants Cards

June 14, 2021

I took some time to play with the new Plentiful Plants bundle last week and came up with these cards:

Save

Can you believe that both the brick, the pots and leaves are all cut from the designer paper? I did stamp the plant on the left but the others are all die-cut from the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP. I love when Stampin' Up! gives us paper and dies that coordinate.

Save

The bottom Soft Succulent CS is made with the Stitched Leaves die; one of my new favorites! See it here.

~~~

This next card also features the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP.

Save

Each of the three plants & pots are from the DSP except for the bowl in the center. That is a die-cut made from Cinnamon Cider CS. I placed them on a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends dies. I sponged the bottom with Cinnamon Cider ink.

This card is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 1 1/4" and 6 3/4". The right flap is glued down and has a 1" X 4" Soft Succulent strip adhered to it. It was textured with the Macrame 3D embossing folder seen here.

Bright Color Combo card with the new Watercolor Shapes set

June 11, 2021

I have lots of creative challenges for my Flowerbug's Team and this time it was a color challenge featuring Night of Navy, Magenta Madness & Granny Apple Green. Fun, vibrant colors I knew would be fun to play with.

Save

I cut off an inch from the right edge of my Navy card and added a strip of Granny Apple Green DSP on the inside edge.

I chose to use a stamp set that I hadn't used yet; Watercolor Shapes seen here.

Save

I stamped the watercolor shapes all over the 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" White CS but I did stamp off first for a lighter hue. The greeting stands out more then.

I found a 'hello' greeting in each of the following stamp sets; Blossoms in Bloom, Create with Friends, Timeless Tropical, Sweet as a Peach, Artistically Inked & Sweet Strawberry. I had no idea we had that many 'hello's' in our sets!

What do you think of this color combination?

Save

I stamped a few of these images twice and fussy cut them so I could add some dimension to the card front. I also added the new In Color Square Gems and a few of the Clear Epoxy Essentials that I colored Granny Apple Green with a Blends marker.

Inked Embossing Folder technique; it’s SO pretty!

June 10, 2021
I decided to play with an old favorite technique where you add ink directly onto an embossing folder 'before' you run it through the die-cutting machine. I shared how on the FB Live video here.

This first card features the Polished Pink CS & ink.

Save

I used two new products in our 2021-22 Annual Catalog; the Pretty Embossing folder and the Create with Friends stamp set seen here. That pretty die-cut label is from the Potted Succulents dies seen here.

This Pretty Embossing folder seen here is my free giveaway for online orders over $50 this month (before tax & shipping) using the host code seen below.

I made one in each of our newest In Colors; Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent and the Polished Pink.

Save

I shared a video with other techniques using the Pretty Embossing folder my FB Live here. Or click on the photo/link below.

I cannot stop playing with these fabulous new In Colors. They are my absolute favorite grouping for many years! And that ribbon!!! See the entire new 2021-23 In color line here.
