Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis Christmas Card

Good Morning! It’s late, but I finally made a Christmas card with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis bundle. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

I adhered a Real Red panel of Take A Bow 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Basic White mat and then to a Garden Green Take A Bow panel. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Thick Basic White card base. I used the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies to cut the flowers, stems and centers from Real Red, Garden Green and Basic Beige card stock.

Each flower in the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies are made with two die cuts. I used a sponge dauber to apply Real Red ink to the flower centers and and bottoms before adhering the petal clusters together with liquid glue. I adhered the centers with liquid glue and used liquid glue to adhere the leaves and little thingy to the stem. I adhered the stem and leaves to the card with glue dots and adhered the buds to the top of the stem with glue dots. I popped the two large flowers on the stems with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiments from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on Basic White. I cut the sentiments out with the long label die from the Autumn Leaves dies and adhered the label to the card with dimensionals. I finished the large flower centers with clear dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with DSP and adhered the panel to a Garden Green mat before adhering it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis dies make beautiful amaryllis flowers! I love these flowers during Christmastime – they’re so big and beautiful and brighten up the room! It’s late, but I’m glad I finally used them for a Christmas card. They’re on the Last Chance list, so get them before they’re gone.


Last Chance Products Now Available!

Retiring products for the current September-December 2024 Mini Catalog are now available in the Last Chance Products category in the Online Store.

Stampin’ Up! is making some changes to their product retirement process. They are introducing a new Last Chance Products category in the Online Store today that will include retiring products from the current 2024 September-December Mini Catalog and Online Exclusives items that are being discontinued. The Last Chance Products category is replacing the current Clearance Rack and will be updated every two months.

Here are the details:

  • Last Chance Products include retiring products from both catalogs and online releases, excluding Paper Pumpkin.
  • Last Chance Products are available while supplies last and will be discontinued when they sell out. Items will be automatically removed from the category and the online store when they are discontinued.
  • Discounts vary and are subject to change. Also, depending on inventory, these products may or may not have discounts.
  • The Last Chance Products category will be updated every other month. Updates happen at the beginning of the month and may include additional products in the category and any adjustments to product discounts.

This change aligns with Stampin’ Up!’s product release strategy of new Online Exclusives every two months and unifies the retirement process for Online Exclusive and Catalog products. The goal is to keep product offerings fresh, trendy and exciting for Stampin’ Up! customers.

Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! One of the pretty floral bundles in the new Mini Catalog is the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis bundle. I just used the stamp set to make today’s card – it was so simple! But the die set makes it so versatile because you can make die cut flowers as well as use dies to cut out the stamped flowers. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a pretty sketch challenge this week”

I adhered a panel of Thoughtful Designs specialty designer series paper to the front of a Flirty Flamingo card base using Stampin’ Seal. I have had experiences where liquid glue left visible lines on the paper and I didn’t want to take a chance, but I had to be extra careful to line it up.

I stamped the line flower from the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis stamp set using Smoky Slate ink on Basic White. I stamped the filler flowers and buds stamps using Flirty Flamingo ink and the stems and leaves using Granny Apple Green ink. I popped the panel on the card with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis stamp set using Versamark ink on Granny Apple Green. I I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I made a bow with Flirty Flamingo baker’s twine and adhered it to the back of the label before adhering it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with pink pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the line flower from the Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis stamp set using stamped off Flirty Flamingo ink on Basic White. I trimmed the bottom with DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love having an amaryllis plant for the Winter months, they bring cheerful color during during the cold, dreary days after Christmas. So when I saw the pretty Stampin’ Up! Artful Amaryllis bundle in the new catalog, I knew I had to have it! And I’m so happy that this simple stamped flower is so pretty!
