Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral bundle is such a pretty set! I love watercolor floral stamps because it makes it so easy to get a beautiful look and this set comes with dies that you can cut out your pretty stamped images. Plus you also get gorgeous foliage dies to set off your pretty stamped flowers! So I made a card with the set and using a Crumb Cake background. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped two large flowers from the Stampin Up! Textured Floral photopolymer stamp set in Calypso Coral on Basic White. I stamped the centers in Pebbled Path and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I stamped a medium flower in Lemon Lolly ink on Basic White and two of the small flowers in Petal Pink. I stamped the centers in Crumb Cake and cut the flowers out with the coordinating dies. I finally stamped the two leaves in Granny Apple Green and cut them out with the coordinating dies.

I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Lemon Lolly mat with liquid glue. I adhered the layered panel to the front of a Crumb Cake card base with dimensionals. I colored a panel of vellum with dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend and cut out two detailed leaf branches using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral dies. I used the eucalyptus die to cut a Lost Lagoon panel and adhered the die cuts to the card front with glue dots.

I adhered the die cut stamped leaves to the card front with glue dots and adhered the flowers with dimensionals. I made a multi-strand loopy bow with linen thread and adhered it with a glue dot and finished the card with rhinestones!

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large flower from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral stamp set in Calypso Coral on a Basic White panel. I stamped the center in Pebbled Path and covered it with a mask before stamping leaves on the side in Granny Apple Green. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love the contrasting look of the watercolor florals from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral bundle with the die cuts in card stock and vellum. And while I love the holiday images in the One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper, the reverse sides are really pretty and great for non-holiday cards!

Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched Card

Good Morning! Here’s a quick encouragement card made with the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched cling stamp set. This is a stamp set with pretty sketched images and sweet sentiments and I paired it with a wood grained pattern from the upcoming One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper that will be available on July 6, 2023 as part of a new Online Exclusives release. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the pretty butterfly image from the Stampin’ Up ! Softly Sketched stamp set in Pebbled Path ink on a Crumb Cake panel. I cut it out with the largest square from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it to a Pebbled Path mat with liquid glue. I took a single strand of Pebbled Path jute trim and wrapped it around the image twice and tied a knot – I love the rippled look of the single strand of jute.

I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper (available July 6, 2023) to Pebbled Path card stock with liquid glue and adhered it to the front of a Crumb Cake card base with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in Pebbled Path ink on a strip of Basic White. I cut it out with the long skinny banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies and trimmed the right end.

I adhered the layered butterfly image to the upper center card front with dimensionals. I adhered the trimmed label with liquid glue under the art panel and finished the card front with pastel iridescent jewels.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in the lower corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love the simple pencil sketches in the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set. They are perfect for making cards with a rustic handmade look. The sentiments in this set are just wonderful! And the One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper will be available on July 6, 2023 when the new Online Exclusives products are available! Yay!

Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh Sneak Peek

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh bundle is one of the items in the new Online Exclusives products that will be available on July 6, 2023. I just received my bundle along with the beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper and I made this quick Christmas card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh photopolymer stamp set in Versamark ink on a strip of Vellum card stock. I sprinkled it with gold embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I folded the right side and adhered the flap to the back of a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ DSP with Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered a strip of More Dazzle specialty paper to the left side of the panel (over the vellum strip) with liquid glue. I adhered the panel to an Early Espresso mat and popped it on the front of a Pool Party Card Base with Dimensionals.

I finished the card front with adhesive snowflakes (also available July 6).

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White. I stamped the tree in stamped off Lost Lagoon and stamped snowflakes along the top edge in stamped off Pool Party. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

It’s great that the Online Exclusives store is getting some Christmas items so that you can get an early start on Holiday Projects! Here’s a picture of the stamp and dies that are in the Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh bundle:

And here’s a quick look at the patterns in the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP:

There are 48 sheets with 12 designs. One side has pretty winter forest and field images and the reverse has different small patterns in Holiday coordinating colors. These snippets don’t do justice for the forest images, they’re really cute as you can see from today’s card.
