SU Flower Patch Stamps Bloom!

 

We had a great time at Scrap Club
last week using the new Flower Patch Stamp Set to make this card.  The new photopolymer stamps took a little practice but we liked being able to see through the stamps.  The images came out crisp and clear.  We used the orange and white flower paper from the new Flower Pot Designer Series Paper.  The orange frame is from the On Film Framelit Die and we used a decorative label punch to highlight the sentiment.  The large flower was stamped with Blackberry Bliss Ink and the pink flower uses Melon Mambo Ink.  After stamping and punching the flowers, cut each flower petal in towards the center to separate the petals a little so you can curl them with your finger.  On the purple flower I cut just to  the second row of petals on the top flower and in about 1/2 inch on each petal on the bottom solid layer.  Use dimension dots between the flower layers and to make the sentiment stand out.

To make the  layered look on the decorative label punch cut out, cut an extra label out of  Wild Wasabi green, then cut it in half.  Put one half on each end of the sentiment punch out  so that it extends past the sentiment.  I trimmed the tiny green points in the middle if they stick out.

I recommend using the Lovely Lace embossing folder for the white center piece and the envelope flap.  Embossing makes a big impact for just a little money!

Cards! Cards! Cards! with Everyday Occasions Kit

I have a new favorite thing!  Stampin' Up 's Everyday Occasions Card Kit made 20 + adorable cards for all occasions.  





 It was so easy to punch out shapes, stamp sentiments, and assemble the designs from the pictures in the color brochure.  Of course I had to venture out on my own and create some originals too!  The kit is all inclusive and comes with stamps, a clear block, 2 ink spots, baker's twine, punch outs including some glitter paper, buttons, arrow clips, and pop dots.  You'll need your own tape runner and scissors.  I added a few ribbons and trims from my stash.  I have enough left overs to embellish lots more cards and tags!  These cards went together in a snap with awesome results!  Perfect for the beginner or experienced scrapper!  You've got to try this!!!  Order at my website www.lyndafalconer.stampinup.net or by clicking the link below.
