Sweet Citrus Bundle

Hi Crafters, I hope you are all well.

Today I am sharing a card I made with some inspiration from a recent team retreat I attended headed by Michelle Last using the Sweet Citrus Bundle.

When I first saw this bundle I was not feeling it, until Michelle had her team event and used it for one of the projects.




I used some craft card and an envelope, both which are not Stampin' Up! products.

The card base was embossed with the embossing folder which is part of the bundle. Some Vellum card stock was used as one of the layers along with some basic white card stock, both of these were cut using the deckled rectangle dies.

The limes were stamped with various shades of green ink refills on baby wipes before being cut and embossed with the hybrid embossing folder and dies. The leaves were also stamped with various shades of green inks and cut using the accompanying dies.






The small flowers were stamped with crumb cake ink and cut out using the dies. The inside layers were also cut using the deckled rectangle dies from basic white and parakeet party card stock. Evening Evergreen windowpane ribbon was used to tie around opposite corners of the basic white card on the front.

The peekaboo treat bag was also embossed using the embossing folder which was done at the retreat by Helen Broxap which I thought was a really good idea, thanks for that Helen :-).

The sentiment for both the card and the treat bag were stamped on vellum card stock using StazOn black ink.

The envelope flap was also embossed to finish it off and some in color opal rounds in soft sea foam were used to put into the centre of the flowers.

Thanks to Michelle Last and Helen Broxap for the inspiration and making me fall in love with the sweet citrus bundle, I hope you like it, until next time, Happy Stampin xx

Two-Tone Flora and Something Fancy Bundles

 Hi Crafters hope you are all well.

Today I am sharing a quick and simple card using the new Two-Tone Flora bundle and the Something Fancy Bundle which can also be purchased as a complete suite.





I used Basic White card stock for the base, and stamped the flowers in Balmy Blue and Pool Party Ink as its a two step stamp set. The flowers were then die cut using the accompanying dies.

I stamped the leaves in Evening Evergreen ink and used the accompanying dies to cut them out I  stamped the sentiment on the card base in Gorgeous Grape ink.





I cut the frame out of some Gorgeous Grape card stock using the one of the smallest Deckled Edge rectangle dies. I then layered some of the double sided Fancy Flora DSP beneath the frame, as you can see the colours coordinate lovely.

I then finished it off with some of the iridescent pastel gems and a small piece of the Pool Party Ribbon, all which are part of the bundle. 

I hope you like it, until next time, Happy Stampin xx

Sale-a-bration Dainty Flowers DSP and Natures Harvest stamp and dies

Hi crafters, hope you are all well.

Today I am sharing a quick and simple card made with the free Sale-a-Bration DSP and the Natures Harvest stamp set and dies.



I used basic white card stock for the base and stamped the tank you at the bottom from the natures harvest stamp set in memento black ink. I cut out the panel for some basic white card stock to most on the on the front using the stitched rectangle dies. I also cut a piece of the Dainty Flowers DSP with the stitched rectangle dies.

I mounted the white panel onto some foam pads and off set the DSP piece on top of the white panel.  I stamped the smallest flower from the natures harvest stamp set and coloured it with light calypso coral and light granny apple blends.




I used some of the white basic twine behind the flower before mounting it with foam pads on the DSP. I finished it off with some iridescent rhinestone basic jewels.

I hope you like this quick and simple yet effective card, until next time, Happy Stampin xx
