Blessings of Home & Flowers of Home dies projects


Look at this pretty card I made on last week's Facebook Live. 

Lots of pretty details on this card:

  • Blessings of Home stamp set & Flowers of Home dies for the leaves
  • I used watercolor pencils & blender pen to color the floral image
  • the gold honeycomb sheet is from the Sweet Sunflower Paper Pumpkin kit; it was a free gift add on
  • I used the gold honeycomb sheet to add a pretty, blended background using Balmy Blue ink & a Blending Brush

The Flowers of Home dies are in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog but also available free with a $100 Stampin' Up! order during Sale-a-Bration.  See them here. This option ends on Wednesday, August 30th.  See all of the Sale-a-Bration options here. 

The stamp set & dies are available in a bundle too.

I made a second card using mostly the Flowers of Home dies.

I cased the card from Sue Mohr; I thought it was simply elegant way to create a 'wreath' around the oval sentiment.  

The oval dies are from the Fabulous Frames dies seen here.  When you cut out the oval it creates both the frame and the inside; two pieces with one die! 

I textured the White layer with the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  It's so pretty and works perfectly with these flower & leaves die-cuts.  

The colors I used are Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia.  

Tip; when adding these delicate die-cuts use just a tiny but of Multipurpose Liquid glue.  

Remember that these Flowers of Home dies are free with any $100 order through Wednesday, August 31st.  Sale-a-Bration ends that day.

  • Diagonal Fun Fold with new products! Free project sheet & video too.


    Today I'm sharing a neat fun fold I hadn't made for awhile.  It's a diagonal fold that is fun and easy. 

     

    I used a few new, upcoming products from both the 2025 Spring and the 2025 Sale-a-Bration catalogs.  The greeting & punch are made with the Bright Borders set and coordinating To the Point punch.  The designer paper is the Toadstool Gardens 6" DSP from the SAB catalog.  It's free with any $60 purchase from January 7th – February 28th, 2025.  

    I made over 20 of them for a mail out swap I joined.  The colors include Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green. 

     

    I share how to make it in the video here and seen below.  Basically it involves trimming off half of one side of the card base, flipping it and adhering it back to the card front.  The only confusing this can be adding your designer paper.  I suggest using a non-directional paper when trying this out.

    Below is the video if you'd like to see how to assemble this card. I also share a pretty Sophisticated Sled project too.

  • How to use the Sophisticated Sled bundle with free project sheet


    We made this pretty card at my December card clubs.  It features the Sophisticated Sled bundle from our Online Exclusives line. 

    I chose White with Boho Blue as my color combination.  The sled is die-cut from the Country Woods DSP. I also used the Painted Trees embossing folder seen here.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the trees. 

    I used stamps from the bundle for the greetings & snowflakes. 

    Before I played with the dies I thought they would be difficult to assemble.  But they're a breeze!  I hope you watch the video below for my tips. The skates are genius!  The laces slip into a slit in the skate die-cut for easy assembly.  

    See this gorgeous bundle here.

  • The Color Coach is back!


    If you struggle with coordinating colors the Color Coach can help.  It provides multiple ways to find the perfect combinations. 

    The Color Coach is Stampin' Up!'s version of the color wheel and is based on color theory—the combination of art and science that determines what colors look good together.

    One side of the Color Coach has all current Stampin’ Up! colors (except Neutrals) laid out with a spinning wheel in the center. This center wheel gives you monochromatic, complementary, analogous, and triadic information about our colors. The back explains each of these concepts, plus our range of neutral colors.

    It's $12.50 and can be seen here. 

    For example who would think Pretty Peacock and Pumpkin Pie would go together so well?  They're on the edge of complimentary colors but work wonderfully! 

    Below is a sample of an Analogous color combination.  SU created designer papers with shades of similar colors using our Full of Life DSP in the Annual Catalog. 

    Have a great weekend!
