Stampin' Up! Blossoms In Bloom cards

  • Blossoms In Bloom Stamp set from Stampin' Up!
  • Many Layered Blossoms Dies
  • June Promotions end tomorrow, June 30th

Stampin' Up! Blossoms In Bloom


I've been exited to show you some of the beautiful swap cards I've received and today I  decided to share this one.  This lovely Blossom In Bloom card was created by Carla Bosselaar, from Creative Stamping.  This swap card went to the top of the pile when I received it.  It is stunning, and I wanted to make sure you saw this set to add to your June order if you haven't placed a new-catalog order yet to take advantage of the extra $25 in shopping rewards that ends tomorrow, June 30.  More about that below.  This card showcases the beautiful World of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper in Basic Black with Brass Foil checks on the left border of this card.  The die cuts are placed over the stamped image from the Blossoms in Bloom set.  Looking at the close up below, you'll notice a texture to the stamped image, which is created with Stampin' Up!'s DistINKtive-style stamps.  The Many Layered Blossoms Dies created the overlays on the stamped images.  The color choices on this card are sensational in my opinion.  It is one of my favorite, new bundles from the annual catalog.            




The basecard for this card is Crushed Curry.  Then a layer of Whisper White, with a boarder of one of the prints from the World Of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper.       
   



The blossoms images from the Blossoms In Bloom Stamp were stamped in Crushed Curry on the Whisper White layer. Then the two large dies from the many Layered Blossoms Dies were used to cut the flower outline using Basic Black, and the flower insides using Daffodil Delight cardstock.  These to layers are glued together -- I use wet glue sponged on lightly on top my Silicone Craft Sheet -- and then glued over the stamped blossoms.  




The sentiment is from the Blossoms In Bloom Stamp Set.  It is stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Crushed Curry and matted in a slightly larger rectangle of Basic Black Cardstock.   





Here's today's card next to a monochromatic version of this same bundle that I created earlier.  You'll love creating cards you're proud of using the Blossoms In Bloom Bundle.  Your friends and family will feel so special when they receive one of your fabulous, handmade cards.  



If you live in the USA and don't have a demonstrator and want a copy of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, contact me.   I would love to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Stampin' Up!'s Pick-A-Free-Bundle Starter Kit Promotion offer ends June 30.  
What should you pick for your Starter Kit?  Here a suggestion:  The Four Season Flower (Item #152801) and the Jar of Flowers Bundle (Item #154064) work together perfectly and the additional Ink pad, In color paper & envelopes, accessories, and adhesives are great supplies to get you started.



  • Join my team by June 30, 2020, and you get a Starter Kit of items you select from the catalog worth $125 USD, for only $99 USD, and you'll also select any stamp/punch bundle from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog for FREE  
  • When you purchase the $125 Starter Kit for $99, you'll select One stamp and punch bundle (p.168-169) or ONE stamp and die bundle (p.173-179) from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog, in addition to the regular Starter Kit.   
  • That could add up to another $60+ to your starter kit, depending on the value of the bundle you select.  That's up to a $185+ in merchandise for $99 
  • Its a great way to stretch your dollars on your new Stampin' Up! annual catalog order.  
  • And no shipping costs! 
  • Demonstrators who sign up by June 30, will be able to see the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog .pdf and place Pre-Orders from the new catalog beginning July 1! That's a full month before customers can begin ordering, which gives you extra time to prepare samples using your new items for a busy fall and holiday season.  This is traditionally the best time for homemade craft sales.

A Cheerful Sunflower using the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set

  • Another Celebrate Sunflowers card
  • Stampin' Up! Flowers For Every Season Suite with two stamp bundles
  • Get Ready For Bonus Days

Stampin' Up! Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set


I love the way that different lighting showcases the texture from the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  I'm again using the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set from the Stampin' Up! Flowers For Every Season Suite.  After showing how lovely this stamped sunflower image looks on a monochromatic card, which I showed yesterday, I also wanted you to see how this image brightens up when color is added. I stamped the image outline in Saddle Brown Stazon Ink and then colored the sunflower with a variety of Stampin' Blends alcohol-based Markers. Both sentiments are from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set. The embossed background sets off the sunflower handsomely.              




The basecard for this card is Crumb Cake.  Then a layer of Whisper White Cardstock.  Then another layer of Crumb Cake Cardstock dry embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.    
   



I stamped the large Sunflowers in Saddle Brown Stazon Ink and used the Sunflowers Dies to die cut it.  I colored the sunflower using Mango Melody, Cinnamon Cider and Soft Suede Stampin' Blends.  I also stamped and die cut two leaves from Whisper White Cardstock.  The leaves were stamped in Old Olive and then colored with Old Olive Stampin' Blends.           
  




I folded a length of Whisper White Faux Linen ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack and held it in place with Mini Glue Dots.  After die cutting and coloring the sunflower and leaves with Stampin' Blends, I placed the two leaves in place with Mini Glue Dots.  Then I popped the Sunflower up on Dimensionals and placed it over the ribbon.   





The sentiment is also from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set.  I stamped it in Cinnamon Cider Ink and then fussy cut it so that more of the sunflower showed.  You can create stunning cards with just a few stamped images, a bit of ribbon and an embossing folder, and your friends and family will feel so special when they receive one of your lovely, charming, handmade cards.     

If you live in the USA and don't have a demonstrator and want a copy of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, contact me.   I would love to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Get Ready For Bonus Days 


Yeah!  Stampin' Up!'s gave us some great news today:  Bonus Days is coming back next week, and that means it's almost time for you to start earning coupon codes to redeem in August.  

Here's a refresher on this promotion:  For every $50 USD you spend 1 July-3 August 2020 (before shipping and tax), you earn a $5 USD Bonus Days coupon code that can be redeemed 4-31 August 2020.  Both customers and demonstrators can enjoy this bonus for shopping in July.

Now, you only need to decide if you want to earn the extra $25 in rewards for placing a $250 USD order (before shipping and tax) by 30 June, or wait until July 1 and earn a $5 USD Bonus Coupon for each $50 you spend and redeem when the new Holiday catalog is released in August.  

For me?  I'm doing them both!!  I love the "instant" rewards this month when I'm still fulfilling my wish list from the new annual catalog.  And I know already that I'll be placing an order July 1 as well.  Why?  Because Demonstrators can place a preorder from the new August-December 2020 Mini Catalog beginning July 1.  So I'll earn coupon bonuses to spend in August, once I've found my favorites from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.  I love that Stampin' Up! is giving us so many ways to save while our incomes might be a little bit tight.  Just like the Pick a Free Bundle with the Starter Kit if you join my team as a demonstrator June 30.  Demonstrators get their 20-25% demonstrator discount on top of these savings!  Pick your best way to save, today!
