Blossoms in Bloom; another pretty cards duo


Today I have a pair of cards made with the 'Split Technique'. This is where you stamp or die-cut once to get two cards.  

I used the Blossoms in Bloom bundle seen here, cutting out two sets of floral dies. I'm sharing lots of projects featuring this incredible bundle this week. 

I sponged the thicker die-cut with Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.  Then I adhered the thin die-cut over the sponged one using liquid multipurpose adhesive.  Next I cut the full, layered die-cut in half so I could place each half on a card.

What do you think of this color combination?  I like to find unique combinations when I play with Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous variety of colors.  

The Many Layered Blossoms dies includes two large dies and several smaller flowers.  The two large dies include both a finely cut and a thicker blossom die for effortless layering.  I cut out once of each; both from Whisper White card stock. 


The Highland Heather layer is textured with the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  It's very subtle and gives a delicate textile pattern. 

The greeting die-cut banner is from the Tasteful Labels dies; stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.

  • Awesome Dance with Me fun fold card


    Look at this gorgeous fun fold card Karen made for our Sale-a-Bration Team swap this month!

    She used the Dance with Me stamp set and the Floral Delight designer paper.  I love the spotlight technique she did too!  You can see an example of it in the SAB catalog here.  This neat spotlight technique is done with masking paper and a blending brush. It's so easy! 

    This set is free through February with any $60 purchase.

    Her colors include Pool Party, White & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Stylish Shapes dies to create her window fun fold effect.  The greeting is from the Day to Celebrate stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration.

    I plan to create this fun fold next month but in the meantime here are her measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
    • White inside 8" X 5 " scored at 2", 3 1/2" & 5 1/2"
    • DSP front is 4" X 5 1/4", inside 1 1/4" X 4 3/4"
    • large circle die-cut is 3", white for the dancing couple is 2 1/2"

    I love this card!  Thanks for doing an awesome job Karen!

  • Opt in for my Card stock shares


    I have cardstock share's happening this month. We used to have these in the mini catalogs but they stopped offering them so I now offer them to my customers on occasion.  

    Here's how it works.  Instead of getting 24 sheets of 1 color in a package (like the catalog offers), I provide 6 sheets each of 4 different colors. It's a great way to get a nice sampling of our card stock.

    These colors coordinate with the new Designer Papers in the Spring catalog. 

    1. Wildflower Birthday – 6 sheets each of Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam

    2. Floral Delight – 6 sheets each of Daffodil Delight, Pecan Pie, Lemon Lolly & Old Olive

    3. Beautiful Bokeh – 6 sheets each of Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral

    4. Friends of the Ocean – 6 sheets each of Pumpkin Pie, Summer Splash, Melon Mambo & Lemon Lime Twist

    5. Storybook Moments – 6 sheets each of Mossy Meadow, Boho Blue, Basic Beige & Pebbled Path

    6. Timeless Plaid – 6 sheets each of Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Calypso Coral & Wild Wheat

    *If you'd like any of these let me know.  I'll figure postage once you tell me how many shares you'd like and provide your zip code as well.  Email me here for a quote. 

    These shares will be offered for just a few weeks; so contact me soon.

  • Lots of product displays from my New Catalog Launch party!


    I held my New Catalog launch party on Saturday and today I'm sharing some of the displays I had for my customers. It was a cold day here but I still had a decent turnout. I wish I had taken photos of the food but I forgot. 

    This table above is my Sale-a-Bration display. I laid out the many products and projects I had to show what can be done with this year's Sale-a-Bration items.  

    This next view of of this same table. 

    Next is 3 boards featuring products from the 2025 Spring catalog. 

    Most of these were received from swapping with my stamping friends. 

    From left to right, this board features the Friends of the Ocean suite, center is the With you in Mind stamp set, upper middle is the Darling Dino, upper left is the Terrific Toadstools, lower right is the Floral Delight& Darling Wishes. 

    This next board features the Memorable Blooms on the lower left, the Wildflower Birthday at the top and the To the Point punch projects on the lower right. 

    This final board features the One More Year on the top left, Storybook Moments on the lower left, the Linked Together at the upper right and the Beautiful Butterflies on the lower right.
