Creating cards with Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper and Dainty Delight Stamp Set

                                  

  • Stampin' Up! Cards using Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper
  • Stampin' Up! Adds Additional Sale-A-Bration Selections 
  • Join us for our 7 February Paper Pumpkin Procrastinators Meetup


I'm still enamored with the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper, and the beautiful cards I can make with these lovely papers.  I'm using two prints from the Dainty Flower Designer Series Paper pack today.  I also used the largest floral from the Dainty Delight Stamp Set and die cut it with the Dainty Delight Dies, which can be purchased as a bundle.  I added a Fresh Freesia Open weave Ribbon between the two prints.  I used Fresh Freesia and Old Olive Blends to add color to the stamped floral.  I selected a Happy Birthday and a Thank You sentiment from the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set and die cut labels out of Basic White for each sentiment.  I stamped the sentiments with Rich Razzelberry ink, and added Pastel Pearls to each sentiment label.   As we move into February, the final month of Sale-A-Bration for 2023, you'll want to pick up the Dainty Flowers bundle, Item #160675 | $54.75 USD, which will earn you the Free Dainty Flowers 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper Sale-A-Bration selection.  This paper invites your imagination to create cards you'll be proud to send to someone special.


Floral Birthday card using Stampin' Up! Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper

The basecard for today's card is Thick Basic White Cardstock.  Then, I used two prints from the Dainty Flowers 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper; one with small florals and the other Fresh Freesia with polka dots. To cover the seam between the two papers, I used a Fresh Freesia Open weave Ribbon tied in a knot.    I used an Old Olive matte for the floral print.

Next, I used the Dainty Delight stamp Set to stamp the largest floral image in Old Olive onto Basic White.  Then I used the Dainty Delight Dies to Die cut the image.  Because there were so many uneven parts to this floral image I was worried about being able to line up the image before die cutting.  So, instead, I die cut the blank Basic White Paper.  Then I used the Basic White Cardstock as an opening to line up my Stamp on my Stamparatus, Next I  added the blank white die cut piece, and perfectly stamped the floral image.  I used Old Olive Blends and Fresh Freesia Blends to color the images in the floral, mounted it on Dimensionals and added it to my card front.

For my sentiments, I selected two from the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set.  I cut a Stitched Rectangle for the Happy Birthday sentiment from Basic White using the Stitched Rectangle Dies.  Then I cut a stitched circle of Basic White using the Stylish Shapes Dies.  I stamped both sentiments in Rich Razzelberry ink.  Then I added a Highland Heather Pastel Pearl to each sentiment to finish my cards.
