Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible blooms bundle is a beautiful new bundle that is in the Online Exclusives section in the Online Store. It has gorgeous florals and beautiful sentiments! It’s so popular that the dies and the beautiful Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper are sold out – but don’t worry because more is on the way! I used both the bundle and the DSP to make a simple, sweet thank you card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week:

I cut a panel of Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper with the 3rd largest stitched rectangles die. I adhered the die cut panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat with liquid glue and then adhered the layered panel to the front of a Petal Pink card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the curvy rectangle label die from the Painted Labels dies and adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I used the dies from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible blooms dies to cut two leaf clusters and a large flower from the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ DSP. I adhered the leaves to the card with liquid glue and adhered the flower with dimensionals. I brushed some Wink of Stella on the flower to add some sparkle and adhered iridescent pearls to the card for shine.

For the inside of the card, I kept it simple, adhering a strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side of a Basic White panel and adhering the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. This leaves plenty of room to write a personal message.

The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle and Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ DSP will not be listed in any catalog and will be available only in the Online Store as part of the New Online Exclusives collection. These gorgeous products make it so easy to make pretty cards!

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms with Video Tutorial

Good Morning! I used the upcoming Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle with the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to make a friendship card for my Facebook Live tutorial yesterday afternoon on my Facebook Page. These two beautiful items will be available on March 1 when the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives launch. You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

You can watch my FB Live video on my Facebook page HERE. I also posted the video to my YouTube Channel and you can view it HERE.

I adhered the pretty bubble striped Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ DSP to a geometric patterned panel of the DSP with liquid glue and adhered it to a Flirty Flamingo card base.

I cut a bunch of flowers and leaves from the Hello Irresistible DSP with the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms dies and adhered them to the card with liquid glue and dimensionals. I adhered the cut off flowers to the top and bottom ends of the panel and filled in with other flowers and leaves. I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink on a Basic White panel. I sprinkled it with gold embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated it with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny and cut it out with the large label die from the Potted Succulents dies.

I looped gold twine on the card, adhering it with glue dots and adhered the label over the twine with dimensionals. I finished the card front with gold sequins.

For the inside of the card, I stamped sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Soft Succulent ink on Basic White. I adhered a die cut DSP leaf to the panel next to the sentiment and trimmed the bottom with Hello Irresistible DSP before adhering the panel to the inside of the card with Stamping’ Seal.

The gorgeous Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle and Hello Irresistible DSP will be available on March 1, 2023 when the new Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives debuts. These pretty items along with more stamp sets, paper and embellishments will only be available online, so check my Online Store on March 1 to see them all!

Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms Sneak Peek

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle is a new set that will be available on March 1, 2023 when Stampin’ Up! launches the new Online Exclusives line. Here’s a sneak peek of this beautiful bundle, along with the Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper that will also be available You can find the currently available supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of the pretty Hello Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Petal Pink mat and adhered it to a Soft Sea Foam card base, all with liquid glue. That gorgeous DSP does all the work!

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms cling stamp set in Versamark Ink on Petal Pink and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut it out with the small Scalloped Contours label die, using the two step die cutting method so that it was shorter.

I adhered a loopy white baker’s twine bow to the card with a glue dot and adhered the label over the bow with dimensionals. I finished the card with Iridescent Pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large flower from the Stampin’ Up! Irresistible Blooms stamp set in stamped off Petal Pink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to the side and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stamping’ Seal.

Isn’t this a beautiful new set? I love the gorgeous sentiments and the dies have wonderful dotted line decorative elements that I can’t wait to use! The Stampin’ Up!
