Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Simple Hello Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle is a pretty floral bundle with bold sentiments. And today’s card uses the pretty Hello sentiment with the gorgeous Favored Flowers designer series paper. This DSP also pairs the pretty pastels with a black background, so I used a Basic Black card base to accentuate the black and pink contrast! You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I cut a panel of Favored Flowers designer series paper with the third largest Stitched Rectangles die and adhered it to the edge of another panel of Favored Flowers DSP. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Basic Black card base with liquid glue.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set in Basic Black on Petal Pink. I inked it up three times and stamped it and it was still a little splotchy, so I used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to fill in some light areas. I cut it out with the second largest skinny rectangle from the Stitched Rectangles dies.

I made a loopy bow with black baker’s twine and adhered it to the card front with a glue dot. I adhered the label over the bow with dimensionals and finished it with Petal Pink faceted dots.

For the inside of the card, I fussy cut the outlines of some of the Calypso Coral flowers and adhered them to the corners of a Basic White card base with liquid glue. I trimmed the edges with paper snips and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. This leaves plenty of room to write a personal message (using black pen of course!)

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in both cling and photopolymer versions, so you can choose the version that you prefer (you can also get either version with the bundle). The pink and black Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP is so pretty and bold that your card doesn’t need much more to make a pretty card. You can choose it as a free item with a $50 order (before shipping and taxes) during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Thank You Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle is a pretty floral bundle with bold sentiments. The Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper coordinates perfectly with the bundle and some of the designs can even be cut out with the dies. I used them both for my card today, but instead of the beautiful bold sentiments, I used the Simply Succulent stamp set and coordinating Potted Succulent dies for my sentiments. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the big floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the flowers with Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends and the leaves with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends and cut it out with the coordinating die. The coloring process was a little tedious, but I love the way it came out – it coordinates beautifully with the flowers in the DSP. I just took my time coloring it one petal at a time focusing on coloring the flower’s detail lines.

I adhered a panel of geometric Favored Flowers designer series paper to a Basic Black mat and then adhered it to a floral DSP panel with liquid glue. I adhered it all to a Basic Black mat and then adhered it to the front of a Petal Pink card base with liquid glue. I cut two large and one small leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers dies from Mossy Meadow and adhered them to the card with dots of liquid glue. I popped the stamped and die cut flowers on top with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents cling stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black on Mossy Meadow and cut it out with the label die from the Potted Succulents dies (these label dies are so pretty!). I folded a length of Petal Pink ribbon and adhered it to the card front with glue dots and adhered the label on top with glue dots and dimensionals. I finished the card front with pastel iridescent gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large flower from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Petal Pink in the corners of a Basic White panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set (Isn’t this the best sentiment?) in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and trimmed the bottom with a strip of Favored Flowers DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in both cling and photopolymer versions, so you can choose the version that you prefer (you can also get either version with the bundle). The Simply Succulents sentiments aren’t as bold as the ones in the new bundle, but I love these sentiments and they fit better on this card design without covering the pretty flowers too much. And for today I even took the time to make a decorated envelope by stamping the flower in Petal Pink and adhering a strip of DSP to the back flap. The pink and black is so pretty and so dramatic and you can choose it as a free item with a $50 order (before shipping and taxes) during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I made a hello card with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle and the beautiful Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. I used the Fresh Freesia flowers and pulled out the beautiful Fresh Freesia shimmer paper for the background! You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge in the Blog Hop and here is the pretty card sketch we are using this week:

I embossed a panel of the Fresh Freesia shimmer paper with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Fresh Freesia card base. I cut a panel of the geometric Fresh Freesia Favored Flowers designer series paper with the third largest Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to the card front.

I used the fourth largest Stitched rectangle die and cut a panel of the DSP with Fresh Freesia Flowers and adhered it with liquid glue. I used my Stamparatus to stamp the ‘hello‘ from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set several times in Blackberry Bliss ink on the right side of a Fresh Freesia panel. I cut it out with the second smallest long Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I cut two Fresh Freesia flowers with the small flower die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers dies and adhered one of them to the card front with dimensionals (save the second one for the inside of the card). I finished the card front with silver pearls.

For the inside of the card, I adhered the second die cut flower to the bottom of a Basic white panel with liquid glue. I trimmed the excess and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set comes in cling and photopolymer. I love that you get to choose! I choose cling since I won’t need to do two-step stamping with this set. I love that the dies also cut out some of the pretty flowers in the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP. This pretty pack of paper is free with a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration.

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Sneak Peek II

Happy New Year! Today I have another sneak peek of the pretty Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle with the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. Today I have a simple masculine thank you card! The January – April 2023 Mini Catalog will be available later this week on Thursday January 5th and Sale-A-Bration will start on the same day, too! 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 Favored Flowers designer series paper to an Evening Evergreen mat and adhered it to the front of an Old Olive card base with liquid glue.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on Old Olive card stock. I stamped it 4 times and there were still a few splotches (I think I need to re-ink my ink pad), so I used my Evening Evergreen Stampin’ Write marker to dab some ink in a few of the lighter areas. I cut the sentiment out with the large label die in the bundle and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with two bronze brushed metallic dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the geometric design from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set using Evening Evergreen ink in the corner of a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal. I love how this little design picks up on so many of the designs in the Favored Flowers Sale-A-Bration DSP!

This is such a simple masculine card, and the bold sentiment and label die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle are perfect!

Here is the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle with the Favored Flowers designer series paper pack:

Both of these items will be available on January 5th when ordering begins for the new January-April 2023 Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration!

Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers Sneak Peek

Good Morning! It’s less than a week until the new Stampin’ Up! January – April 2023 Mini Catalog is open for ordering! Yay!! On the same day, Sale-A-Bration 2023 will begin! Double Yay!! And today I have a sneak peek of the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle from the upcoming catalog along with the Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper that coordinates with the bundle. 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 strip of Petal Pink geometric Favored Flowers designer series paper to an Evening Evergreen panel with liquid glue. I adhered a panel of floral DSP next to it and wrapped it with Basic Black baker’s twine, making a bow. I adhered the layered DSP to the front of a Petal Pink card base with dimensionals.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers cling stamp set in Evening Evergreen ink on a Petal Pink panel. I stamped it 4 times, but since colored card stock is not as smooth as Basic White, I still had some splotchy spots. Since I wanted a smoother look, I used my Evening Evergreen Stampin’ Write marker to dab more color on some of the lighter spots. I cut it out with the big label die from the bundle and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card with 3 Petal Pink Elegant gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers stamp set using Petal Pink ink on a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love this bold sentiment and label die from the Stampin’ Up! Fragrant Flowers bundle, and it goes wonderfully with the bold floral and graphic designs in the Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers designer series paper. The DSP pack is one of the items that you will be able to get for free with a purchase of $50 during Sale-A-Bration. Here are the pretty papers in the pack along with the Fragrant Flowers bundle:

Both of these items will be available on January 5, 2023 and I can’t wait!!
