Petal Park Sneak Peak from the Spring Catalog

This week I've been sharing some of the cards I made for online swaps I joined.  I hope you're enjoying the sneak peaks! 

Today I'm sharing a card made with a new stamp & punch bundle called Petal Park.  It includes a new flower trio punch from the Spring catalog.

I chose to use the new Regency Park 6 X 6" designer paper; that's where I got the color combination of Balmy Blue, Night of Navy and Mango Melody.  I love them together!  

Measurements:

  • The card base is 7 1/2" X 5 1/2".  (I cut off 1" from a traditional 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base)
  • The designer paper is 1" X 5 1/4" on the inside right edge.  
  • white panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"
  • Navy is 3" X 4" and the Mango strip is 1" X 4".  
  • The slanted die-cut greeting is from the Something Fancy dies

In the stamp set there are two sets of flowers – solid and outline.  Plus two sets of leave images as well; outline and solid.  I used both of the flower images, stamping them in Mango Melody & Balmy Blue.  Then just the outline leaves for a lighter background.  I did add some of the small dots in Mango all over the flowers & leaves.

I curled the petals after punching so they had a bit more dimension to them.  I added pearls to the centers.  

The greetings are from another new stamp set called Kind & Sincere.  It has both large and small greetings so you can mix & match your words.  I love this one!

  • New Inked & Tiled in a Book Binding Easel fun fold card; video tutorial & measurements too!

    I'm just a little bit in love with this special fun fold layout!  I've made three versions of it this month…. 

    Inked & Tiled cruise Save

    I featured two new colors in our Stampin' Up! catalog – Boho Blue & Pebbled Path with returning Misty Moonlight & White.  

    I hope you watch the video here or below to see how to make this neat card.  It's so much easier than it looks!  

    I knew this stamp set would be fun to play with.  The greetings are wonderful and of course the botanical images are beautiful!

    Details:

    • I stamped the large leaf repeatedly onto the Boho Blue layers using Versamark ink. I let it dry and then textured it with the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder.  I love this new folder!!  
    • How did I get the two-tone colors on my flowers?  I used both an ink pad and markers. I inked the flowers first in Boho Blue. Then I colored the stems using a Pebbled Path Stampin' Write marker.  Huff and stamp!  Why huff?  Huffing with your moist breath re-moistens the ink on your stamp. This can be especially helpful with solid type stamps.  
    • After stamping I used the same Pebbled Path marker to add more detail to the base of each flower.  
    • For an easel card you need something to hold it open.  I stamped the flower in the set onto a piece of Boho Blue and punched it out with the Petal Park Builder punch. I curled and distressed the petals and added it with a few Mini Dimensionals.

    The card does lay flat for mailing.

    I added a looped piece of the 2023-25 In Color Jute trim under my punched Oval greeting.  I did sponge a bit of Boho Blue on the edges first.  

    In the video I share two other beautiful cards made with the Inked & Tiled stamp set.  I made two of them for swaps on the Stampin' Up! incentive trip I'm on right now!  A Norwegian cruise!

  • Inked & Tiled with a gorgeous background with video & blending tips!

    Today I'm sharing one of my favorite cards I've made this month. These colors are so me!  I needed to make 28 of these for the Norway cruise with Stampin' Up! We have to option of joining a card swap and I always try to do something unique for this special swap. 

    I chose the new Copper Clay with Black and Coastal Cabana. Aren't they beautiful together? 

    May Inked & Tiled Save

    This card features the new Inked & Tiled stamp set seen here. It actually comes in a bundle with two punches. But I didn't use those here.

    After I stamped the flowers in Black ink I used Blending Brushes to add both Coastal Cabana and Copper Clay ink.  We have both regular and small Blending Brushes now.  For a background like this I recommend the larger set of brushes. See them here.

    Tip: when wanting a smooth blend, I recommend adding ink to your brush and start off of your paper. Slowly work your way on with a soft, gentle swirling motion. Adding pressure can give you blotches or other marks.  It's also helpful to have a fully inked pad.  *Remember that is helps to add ink a little at a time. It can be a slow process!

    Isn't that texture gorgeous with the blended background?!  

    When I was creating this card I made the card on the right first.  If you look closely the stamped panel does not have any texture on it.  Adding the Exposed Brick embossing created the perfect finish!

  • Fresh, new color combination with Inked &Tiled – fun fold with video tutorial too

    I've been working double time getting ready to leave for our Norway cruise – this year's incentive trip with Stampin' Up!  I'm thrilled to go on this year's trip with my husband.  He's a fabulous traveling partner!

    Depending on WIFI, I hope to share photos on Facebook and Instagram while we're gone.

    I'm not usually a Subtles or Neutrals kind of gal but I sure love this beautiful color combination!  It's Gray Granite, Petal Pink with a bit of our new Pebbled Path.

    What do you think?  I haven't Gray Granite often because I never found a color to pair it with.  But Pebbled Path is gorgeous and among the same color tones. And add Petal Pink and it's beautiful!  

    I stamped the large leaf image repeatedly on the Gray Granite layer. The greeting is on a white die-cut from the Timeless Arrangements dies. I added a few of the pretty die-cuts under the greeting before layering a folded piece of ribbon (Ribbon Duo Combo Pack) and then to the punched & textured Petal Pink circle.  

    My card is an easy Z-fold – 4 1/4" X 11" card base scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2".

    I added lots of texture with the Timeless Arrangements dies.  The pretty 'Hello' greeting is from the new Layering Leaves stamp set. It's a new favorite and I LOVE that it matches the Bough punch!  See it here.
