Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper

Hi everyone,

The Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper (#167752) is a pack of black & white designs which you can use as is or colour, which I did on these vases of flowers.

I fussy cut the images before colouring with Stampin’ Blends - Lost Lagoon (#161680), Peaceful Pine (#167668), Smoky Slate (#154904) and Balmy Blue (#154830). I also used the new Shimmer Brushes - Crisp Cantaloupe (#167661), Hydrangea Hue (#167663) and Peaceful Pine (#167665). These shimmer brushes colour and add shimmer at the same time.

I cut the Crisp Cantaloupe from the 2026-2028 In Colour Pearlised Specialty Paper (#167766) with a Scalloped Blooms die (#167646). This was attached to the Basic White card front (#166781) which was dry embossed with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder (#167179). This was matted with Basic Black card (#121688), then attached to the Basic White base card.

The vases of flowers were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The sentiment from the Greetings For All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (#164862) was added with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. The embellishments are from the 2026-2028 In Color Dots (#167546).

Scalloped Blooms

Hello everyone,

I have used the Scalloped Blooms dies (#167646) for today’s card.

I used the largest Scalloped Blooms circle die to cut the Basic White base card (#166781). The base card was scored & folded in half and I cut the 2 pieces at one time with the die as shown below.

I used the same die to cut the Hydrangea Hue card (#167688) and attached it on top of the base card.

Using the next size smaller die I cut the Delicate Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper (#167498) and a piece of Basic White card (for the inside). The DSP was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment from Phrases & Frames stamp set (#167581) was stamped with Hydrangea Hue ink (#167677). The sentiment and the Hydrangea Hue card behind the sentiment were cut with Scalloped Blooms dies. These die cut pieces were taped to the card.

For the inside, I cut a small amount from the top to fit it into the card. The edges were daubered with Hydrangea Hue ink and I stamped the leaf from the Delicate Whispers stamp set (#167500.

To finish the card I added the butterflies from the 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies (#167656).

Wild Bunch stamp set

Hello again friends,

How cute are the animals in the Wild Bunch stamp set (#167987) including this koala. This stamp set is the June Product Of The Month which is available to purchase with a qualifying order.

I stamped the Koala with Gray Granite ink (#147118) onto Basic White card (#166781). I coloured it with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882) and Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends (#161675). I then fussy cut the koala.

The DSP for the card front is from the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper (#167737) and I matted this with Peaceful Pine card (#167692) and attached it to the Basic White base card.

The strip of DSP is from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Paper (#167935). I used a die from the Scalloped Blooms dies (#167646) to cut the Basic Beige card (#164512) and Bubble Bath card (#161727). The Basic Beige card was dry embossed with the Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder (#168220) which will be available in the July Online Exclusives.

The DSP and the 2 die cut pieces were taped to the card. The koala was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Best Wishes” from the Words & Wishes dies (#167894) was cut with Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper (#165901). This was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), so all you need to do is remove the backing and attach the words to the card.

I added glimmer to the koala using the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) and the embellishments are from the 2026-2028 In Color Dots (#167546).
