Kylie Bertucci's Monthly International Blog Highlights April 2021

Welcome to Kylie Bertucci's Monthly International Blog Highlights for April as we share our card ideas with the theme of Thank You. You will have the opportunity to visit talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their amazing card designs to help inspire you.

Today's card design features some of my favorite retiring products from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. I love the Butterfly Gala stamp set (item #148580) and the coordinating Butterfly Duet Punch (item #148523) for creating Spring themed cards and I chose to use one of the designs from the Playing With Patterns 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (item #152490) to create this pretty Thank You card. There were so many beautiful patterns to choose from that would work well with this stamp set and punch to create a variety of cards for all occasions.

This clean and simple card design works well for a variety of occasions and is easy to create. The stamp images in this stamp set are easy to line up and punch out and there are wonderful sentiments to choose from. I colored the large butterfly image with both the Light and Dark Calypso and Light and Dark Mango Melody Stampin' Blends Markers and for the two smaller butterflies I used just the Mango Melody Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. I added Basic Rhinestones for a touch of bling and the Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon adds a pretty soft touch to the design.

SBTD May Blog Hop Flowers

Welcome to the SBTD May Blog Hop and this month we are focusing on flowers, flowers and more flowers. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the world as they share their creative projects with you. I hope that our ideas will help inspire you to create your own beautiful projects.

Today's card design showcases the beautiful Garden Impressions 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (item #146289) to create a pretty floral background. I love the wonderful color combinations in this piece of patterned paper and I used two of the to create this card. I chose Melon Mambo cardstock for the card base and added a layer of Powder Pink cardstock as a matte for the designer series paper layer.

To create the sentiment, I heat embossed the image from the Abstract Impressions stamp set (item #147513) using Gold embossing powder onto Whisper White cardstock. I used the Everyday Label Punch (item #144668) to punch out the sentiment and attached it to the card front with Snail Adhesive.

To embellish the card, I punched out three small butterflies using the Butterfly Duet Punch (item #148523) from Gold Foil. I embossed the small butterflies using the Lace Dynamic Embossing Folder (item #148530) to add texture. For a touch of bling, I added Basic Rhinestones to the center of each butterfly and attached them to the card front using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

This clean and simple card design is easy to create and with all the amazing designs in the Garden Impressions 6"x6" Designer Series Paper, you can create a wonderful collection of cards for a variety of occasions. This beautiful designer series paper is retiring and is only available while supplies last or until June 3rd, 2019 when the Occasions Catalog comes to an end. If you would like to order this beautiful paper, I would suggest ordering it soon to avoid disappointment.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own beautiful floral projects using these fun products. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.
