Delicate Dahlias with a 2-toned color technique

Here's a card I made for an online swap I participated in.  I needed to use an item from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog and the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was my first choice of sets.  

It has a large dahlia along with a smaller flower image as well. And both are 2-step stamps with outline and solid, dystinktive images to match.  It also has two sets of leaves and 4 wonderful greetings as well!

The triple-rectangles frame is a die-cut called Picture This dies.  You get 2 dies in the set; a set of rectangles and one of circles.  What I love most about these dies is that you can use both; the small stitched pieces OR the large frame!  See it here in the online store.

Can you see the multiple hues of colors on these flowers? I inked the large solid dahlia in Pale Papaya ink first.  Then with a sponge dauber I added Calypso Coral ink on the outside and the center.  Then huff and stamp.  Clean between each inking. The small flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral ink and fussy cut.

  • Heads up! Card stock prices are rising in the upcoming 2025-26 Annual Catalog

    Everything seems to be rising in cost these days and unfortunately Stampin' Up! is experiencing this as well.  Mill prices have risen quite a bit so the price for our solid core card stock is going up in the new 2025 Annual Catalog.  

    I know it's upsetting to hear this but it is understandable. I want Stampin' Up! to stay in business and continue to offer us high quality card stock & other products.  Solid core CS does cost more than white core to produce and many mills do not produce it. Our card stock is among the best in the paper crafting world!  

    Su card stock Save

    So my advice to you is to stock up on your favorite colors or any that you use a lot.  The price change goes into effect in early May.  Here's a link to our beautiful card stock.  

    Luckily this is the only thing that we'll see a major price change in the upcoming new catalog. Yay!  It's easy to be negative about this but I have complete faith that Stampin' Up! does their best to keep prices as low as possible for us.

  • Timeless Plaid card kit for great men’s card ideas. Reserve yours now!

    If you're like me you tend to make more cards for the gals than the guys. So I thought I'd focus on men's cards for one of my kits & tutorials in April.  I chose to feature the Timeless Plaid designer series paper for these terrific cards. 

    Timeless Plaid cards . Save

    Aren't these great card ideas?  Many are fancy fold cards and perfect for the men in your life. The color combinations with the plaid DSP are quite eye catching. 

    You have a few options here:  Choose the pre-cut kit or the PDF tutorial. 

    This card kit includes the following items:

    • the pre-cut card kit including punched and die-cut elements
    • 1/2 pkg Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper (6" X 6")
    • a share of the Faux Glass Dots
    • a share of Linen Thread
    • the PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, a supply list and step by step directions.

    The PDF tutorial is $16 and can be seen here.  The pre-cut kit is $31 and is seen here. 

    Reserve yours soon! The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit is sent out at the end of April barring inventory/supply issues. 

    For the kit to go you'll need greeting images (I used With You in Mind and Unbounded Love sets but any will work), adhesives, inks and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper. 

    I have multiple kits and tutorials available on my shop here.  Check them out!
