One of the many advantages of being a demonstrator with Stampin’ Up! is that you have early access to many new products before they are available to everyone. This is another sneak peek of another beautiful collection - the Hues Of Happiness Suite Collection (#158828). Included in this collection is the Happiness Abounds Bundle (#158824), Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper (#158822) and the Glossy Dots Assortment (#158827). The Happiness Abounds Bundle includes the Happiness Abounds stamp set (#159238) and the Blossoming Happiness Dies (#158823). Of course, all these can be purchased separately as well.
One of the designs of the beautiful Designer Series Paper also co-ordinates with some of the Blossoming Happiness dies which is what I have used on this card for the flowers & leaves.
I used one of the dies to cut the design on the Basic White card front (#159228). This was matted with the Fresh Freesia card (#155611), then attached to the Basic White base card. The flowers and leaves were attached to the card front with tape & Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I also added glimmer to the flowers & leaves with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897).
“Best Wishes” is from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The label die from Sending dies (#159271) was the perfect fit for this sentiment. This was attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to the card.
TIP: The flower in the bottom corner of the card was cut from the corner of the DSP, so fitted perfectly in the corner of the card. The blue flower also had a straight edge on one side so by adding the flower on top, it is hidden. No need to waste the partial flowers.
“Love what you do and share what you love.”
Absolutely beautiful, and great use of all these new products. I especially liked your tip. I'm still waiting for my order to arrive (yes, I'm a demo too) and can't wait to get started. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. I'm going to have to give this card a try!!
