Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral for World Card Making Day with Video

Good Morning and Happy Monday! I hope you had a great Fall weekend! If you happened to catch the Inkin’ Krew World Card Making Day Event, maybe you got a chance to see the video for my Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral fun fold card. If not, I’ve linked up the video below so you can check it out. You can also find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

Here is the video that I made for the Inkin’ Krew WCMD event. You can also view it on my YouTube Channel:

I adhered the floral panels of Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the inside and short front flap of the Calypso Coral card base with liquid glue. I adhered the dotted DSP to the short Calypso Coral panel that I cut off the front flap.

After adhering the floral DSP to the card base, I worked on the inside. I stamped the flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Florals stamp set in Calypso Coral ink in the lower corner of a Basic White panel. I stamped the stems in Garden green ink and then adhered the panel to a Calypso Coral mat with Stampin’ Seal. I then adhered the layered inside panel to the floral inside of the card, centering the panel on the designer series paper.

Then I adhered the layered dotted designer series paper panel to the short front flap with liquid glue, being careful to apply glue to only the left half of the panel. I also wanted to make sure that the inside panel was covered and the liquid glue gave me the wiggle room to make sure it was placed properly.

I cut the wide leaf sprig die from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral dies from Garden Green and the small leaf sprig die from Lost lagoon. I adhered the leaf sprigs to the dotted panel with bits of glue dots (I think liquid glue would work too). I stamped the flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral stamp set in Calypso Coral ink on Basic White and stamped the stems in Garden Green. I cut out the flowers with the coordinating die and adhered it to the panel with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White and cut it out with the long skinny banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies. I adhered the label to the card front with dimensionals and finished the card with Calypso Coral Iridescent gems and a knotted length of Lost Lagoon ribbon.

I love how the greenery dies and stamped flowers in the Stampin’ Up! Textured Florals bundle compliment the Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. And the simple fun fold gives the card just a little something extra.

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! Textured Floral for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Today’s card features the pretty Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral bundle with the Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge for our Blog Hop this week:

I adhered a floral panel of Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a Lost Lagoon card base with liquid glue. I cut a Petal Pink panel with the Radiating Stitches die and adhered it to the card front. I cut the small leaf branch from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral dies from Lost Lagoon card stock and adhered it to the die cut panel with liquid glue.

I stamped the small leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral photopolymer stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink and cut it out with the coordinating die. I adhered it to the card with liquid glue. I stamped the large flower in Daffodil Delight ink on Basic White and the flower center in Crumb Cake . I cut the flower out with the coordinating die and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I stamped the small flower in Calypso Coral and Crumb Cake on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die. I adhered it to the card with glue dots and dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink on Pool Party card stock. I cut fishtails on the ens and adhered it to the card with dimensionals. I finished the card front with Iridescent Pastel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower from the Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral stamp set in Calypso Coral on Basic White. I stamped the center inn Crumb Cake and trimmed the bottom of the panel with a strip of Inked Botanicals DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Textured Floral bundle is a pretty two step floral stamping set with water-color like images. The sentiments are pretty and it has dies that cut out the stamped flowers and leaves. Plus, there are pretty foliage dies that go wonderfully with the stamped images!
