Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty Just For You Card

Good Morning and Happy Tax Day! We filed ours just in time this weekend – need to do better next year. Anyway, here’s another sneak peek of the new Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty bundle from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. I paired it with the pretty retiring Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to show that it’s pretty in many different color palettes. You can find the currently available products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Calypso Coral mat with liquid glue. I adhered another strip of the DSP to a Lost Lagoon mat before adhering it to the panel. I popped the layered DSP panel onto the front of a Lost Lagoon card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the new Unbounded Love stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on the side of a Lost Lagoon panel and cut it out with one of the dies from the Unbounded Love dies. These new products will be available when the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog launches on May 1, 2024. I cut a sprig from the Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty dies from Pool Party card stock and adhered it to the card with Lost Lagoon ribbon with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the label over the ribbon and part of the die cut sprig.

I stamped two of the large flowers from the new Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty stamp set using Calypso Coral and Petal Pink inks on Basic White. I stamped the outlines full strength and the filler in stamped off ink. I stamped the flower centers using Pecan Pie ink and cut them out with the coordinating die. I used the same technique to stamp two leaf clusters using Lost Lagoon ink. I adhered the leaves to the card with glue dots, tucking them under the label and adhered the flowers with glue dots and dimensionals. I wish I had my iridescent pastel gems to add some bling – they would have been perfect!

For the inside of the card, I stamped the leaf cluster from the Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty stamp set using Lost Lagoon ink in the corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The new Stampin’ Up! Flowers of Beauty bundle will be available on May 1, 2024. The two step stamp set has really pretty flower and leaf stamps that are really easy to line up and work so well by using a full strength ink on the detailed outline stamp and stamped off ink on the filler. And I love that the filler stamps have highlights that easily give you nice texture and dimension! And while they go beautifully with the Unbounded Beauty designer series paper like my card the other day, they also work beautifully with other designer series papers that you may already have. Here’s a picture of the bundle:
