Start your Valentine cards with Stampin' Up Country Floral Lane Suite

                         

  • Stampin' Up! Country Floral Lane Suite with Country Floral Designer Series Paper
  • Last Day for Last Chance Items from July-December Mini Catalog
  • New Join offer during Sale-A-Bration as well as the Stampin' Up! 2023 Mini Catalog launch - 5 January 2023

There are so many cute ideas on line already for using the country Floral Lane  Suite.  The Country Floral Designer Series Paper includes many coordinating papers that mix and match well, and you'll have a great time creating with them.  Today I'm using one of the heart prints included with the Country Floral Designer Series paper along with the coordinating Country Bouquet Punch. You can see all of the prints on page 5 of the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog from Stampin' Up! This card is a very simply design, using the hearts and leaves punched from the Designer Series Paper on a Basic White Background.  I used the Eden Dies from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog to create a Basic White floral frame for the Hearts punched from the Designer Series Paper.  My color theme for this card is Basic White, Mossy Meadow, Soft Succulent, and Sweet Sorbet.  Simply punch the hearts and leaves using the Country Bouquet Punch, mount them on Dimensionals, and add them to the Basic White Basecard with the Eden die cut frame.  I used one of the sentiments from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set and stamped it in Mossy Meadow directly onto the basecard.  For a little bling, I added a few Heart Pearls to my card.  Take a look at the Country Floral Lane Suite on page 8-10 of the July-December Mini Catalog.  You'll find a variety of ways to use this suite for both Valentines as well as anniversaries.  Check out more card ideas using this paper below or on page 8 in the January-April 2023 Mini catalog. Thursday, 5 January 2023, is the first day customers can begin ordering from the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog and the start of Sale-a-Bration.  Order the entire Country Floral Lane Suite | 160390 | $78.75 USD and earn Free Sale-A-Bration selections for each $50 or $100, less tax and shipping, you spend.

Heart-themed valentine Card using Stampin' Up! Country floral Lane Suite

The basecard for the card for today's card is Thick Basic White Cardstock.  Then I used the Eden Dies from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog to die cut a frame of florals for my images.

I used the  Country Bouquet Punch to punch hearts and leaves from one of the Country Floral Lane 12" X 12" Designer Series Papers (DSP).  Then I mounted them on Dimensionals before adding them to my card front.

I selected a small sentiment from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set that would fit my card, and stamped it in Mossy Meadow Ink directly onto the card.To finish my card, I added a few Heart Pearls.  These pearls are listed under Accessories on page 143 of the Annual Catalog from Stampin' Up!
