  The White greeting die is from the Tasteful Labels dies.  I hand cut the larger one. 

  Measurements for this card:

  • Granny Apple Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
  • Gorgeous  Grape  3 3/4" X 5"
  • Whisper White 3 pieces at 3 1/2" X 1 1/2"

• Flowers for Every Season

  June 11, 2020

  ---

  The Flowers for Every Season paper pack is the only 6 X 6" papers in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  Many people love the 6 X 6" papers; they find them easier to cut into for some reason.  

  I decided to use them for last week Monday night's Stamp with Me video.  Here's a link to it on Facebook. 

  Save

  This is one of my favorite I made so far with this paper; I love the new Misty Moonlight in color.  Paired with Night of Navy and White is quite striking in my opinion.  Monochrome cards can be so soothing! 

  I also used the Small Bloom punch, 2020-22 In Color Enamel Dots and the Pick a Punch. 

  Measurements:

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    DSP 3 1/2" square and 1" X 3 1/2"
    CS layer 5" X 3 3/4"
    CS strip; textured 3/4" X 4 1/4"
    Greeting banner/punch

• Blossoms in Bloom cards; it’s pretty even without the die-cuts!

  June 10, 2020

  ---

  Today I'm sharing cards made with the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set.  It comes with a gorgeous set of dies too but today it's all about the stamps. 

  First is a pretty card made by my friend Ruth Bingle.  I always love her swap cards! 

  Save

  She used the triple time stamping technique.  This is where you cut out three layers of descending sizes of card stock and stamp on them all at the same time.  

  Her White layers are from smallest to larges: 2" X 3 1/4", 3" X 4 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4".  The Bumblebee layers are 2 1/4" X 3 1/2", 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" and the card base of 5 1/2" X 8 1/2".  This is a fun technique to do with many style of stamps to create your own background.  

  Next is a sweet & simple card I made combining Bumblebee with Gorgeous Grape. 

  Save

  This stamp set is one of those where you stamp once and get multiple hues of color; all with one inking!  Love this so much! 

  And last is a card where I stamped directly onto the designer paper. 

  Save

  This is the In Good Taste designer paper seen here; it's full of amazing photo realistic textures like wood, tile and textiles.  My colors are Early Espresso, Flirty Flamingo with a touch of Bumblebee. The dies are from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here; my top pick for the most used/versatile dies so far!
