Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms bundle is a fun stamp and die set with images of oranges, lemons, flowers and wonderful sentiments from the current Annual Catalog. The dies are also wonderful with a large, fancy leaf background die that I used on today’s card. I also used the coordinating Mediterranean Blooms designer series paper which has images that can be cut out with the dies. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of floral Mediterranean Blooms designer series paper to the front of a Lemon Lolly card base. I cut the dark side of the two-tone Garden Green card stock with the large leafy frame dies from the Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms dies and adhered it to the card with dots of liquid glue.

I cut the triple orange image from the Mediterranean Blooms DSP with the coordinating die from the Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms dies and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I used the pretty Daffodil Delight ribbon to make a loopy bow and adhered it to the card with a glue dot.

I stamped sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Citrus Blooms stamp set using Garden Green ink on Basic White and cut it out with the medium die from the Mixed Labels dies. I adhered it to the card and finished the card with Garden Green and White transparent dots.

For the inside panel, I stamped the the orange from the Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms stamp set using twice stamped off Garden Green ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with DSP and adhered it to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The pretty Stampin’ Up! Citrus Blooms bundle is a fun bundle and the bright Lemon Lolly and Daffodil Delight flowers in the Mediterranean Blooms DSP are so fresh and springy and I am so ready for Spring!

Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs Hello Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I used the Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs bundle and the pretty Wildly Flowering designer series paper with the sentiments from the Citrus Blooms stamp sets for a simple fun fold Hello card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a or challenge this week and it’s perfect for the Wildly Flowering designer series paper!

I cut panels of Moody Mauve Wildly Flowering designer series paper and adhered them to Misty Moonlight mats before adhering them to the inside and front flap of a Moody Mauve card base. Instead of using a Moody Mauve panel, I cut a Misty Moonlight panel to adhere to the front flap. I cut a panel of Moody Mauve DSP and adhered it to the Misty Moonlight panel with liquid glue. And I used the panel without the little bouquets.

I cut a Misty Moonlight panel with the scalloped frame die from the Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs dies and adhered it to the panel with dimensionals. I used the small hexagon panel to cut a panel of Wildly Flowering DSP and adhered it to the center with liquid glue.

I stamped the hello sentiment from the Citrus Blooms stamp set using Versamark ink on a Misty Moonlight panel. 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 and cut it out with the little diamond die from the Unbounded Love dies. I made a bow with linen thread and adhered it to the back of the label and adhered the label to the card front with Dimensionals and glue dots. I finished the card with Moody Mauve dots.

For the Inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Citrus Blooms stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on a Basic White panel. I used Crumb Cake ink to ink up the flower from the Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs stamp set and stamped it off before stamping it over the sentiment. I adhered the panel to the inside panel with liquid glue, being careful to line it up under the front panel so is hidden when the card is closed.

I love how the Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Designs bundle looks with the Wildly Flowering DSP and I finally figured out why I love this paper so much. It looks just like wallpaper I had in my house 30 years ago! Definitely vintage! LOL.
