The Joy of Sets May Floral Blog Hop

It's time to hop along with The Joy of Sets May Blog Hop and our theme this month is Floral. You will be visiting with talented crafters from around the world as they share their beautiful projects to help inspire you to get creative.

Today I am sharing a card created using the beautiful Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper (item #149500) paired with the Forever Lovely stamp set (item #148624) from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. I love how the pretty paper does all the work to create this clean and simple card design.

To create the is card, I chose Merry Merlot cardstock for the card base and attached a piece of the beautiful paper to create the background. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image from the Forever Lovely stamp set onto Very Vanilla cardstock using Gold Embossing Powder and then used a die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies (item #151690) to create the pretty label. I attached the label to the card front and added two Basic Pearls that I colored with the Light Mossy Meadow Stampin' Blends Marker, to finish off the design. This card is easy to mail and works for a variety of occasions.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design helps inspire you to explore creating your own beautiful projects.

GSF We Love Bundles Blog Hop

It's time to hop with the GSF February Blog Hop as we showcase wonderful bundles from Stampin' Up! Bundles feature a combination of products that coordinate, whether it be a stamp set with die set or perhaps a punch, and when you purchase the bundle you can save 10%.

Today I am showcasing the wonderful Under My Umbrella Bundle (item #153786) which includes the Under My Umbrella stamp set and coordinating Umbrella Builder Punch, all from the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog. When you order these products as a bundle, you save 10% which is great for your budget. I chose to use Rococo Rose cardstock for the card base and added a layer of Gingham Seaside Spray Designer Series Paper from the 2019-2021 In Color 6"x6" Designer Series Paper Pack (item #149617) to create the background.

The oval focal image was created using the Layering Ovals Dies (item #151771), die cutting a Whisper White cardstock oval and a scalloped oval from Rococo Rose cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Under My Umbrella stamp set using Seaside Spray Classic ink. To create the umbrella, I stamped the large umbrella piece and the handle with Seaside Spray Classic ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punched them out using the Umbrella Builder Punch. To create a design on the umbrella, I used the small hearts image from the Forever Lovely stamp set (item #148624) and used Rococo Rose Classic ink. I also stamped the image below the sentiment on the oval focal label.

To create the hearts for the detail, I used the Stitched Be Mine Dies (item #148527) and die cut the hearts from Rococo Rose cardstock and Blushing Bride cardstock. I cut the detailed Blushing Bride hearts apart and attached them to the card front so that layered behind the oval image. I attached the oval on top using Stampin' Dimensionals to add dimension. I attached the top of the umbrella to the oval using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals and the handle with Snail Adhesive. To embellish the card front, I added several of the Rococo Rose hearts and Blushing Bride hearts using Snail Adhesive. This pretty card would be great for Valentine's Day, as a baby shower card or just to let someone you care about know that you are thinking of them.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to try creating with bundles from Stampin' Up! They are a wonderful way to get creative while staying within your budget.
