Happy Hibiscus Bundle

 Hi friends,

I have used a mix of products to make today’s card, including the Happy Hibiscus Bundle (#164880). This bundle includes the Happy Hibiscus stamp set (#164877) and the Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder (#164897). This hybrid folder also includes the set of dies where the larger die with the 3 flowers will fit into the folder and cut and embossed at the same time. This folder & dies can also be used separately as normal, making them very versatile.



I stamped the trio of flowers with Poppy Parade ink (#147050) onto Poppy Parade card (#121694). Then I placed the die into the folder, lined up the stamped image and put it through the Stamp & Embossed machine using the embossing plates. I have only used the larger flower for this card.

Using Gold Foil Sheet (#132622), backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), I cut the lattice from the Linked Together Dies (#164808). I also cut the arch from the Gold Foil sheet and the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (#163393) with the Everyday Arches Dies (#164629).

The gold arch was attached to the DSP with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The lattice was attached to a piece of Basic White card (#159228), making sure you have it placed where the arch is. I taped the DSP with the arch onto the Basic White card then matted this with Poppy Parade card.

The leaves were cut with dies from the Happy Hibiscus dies using Season Of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper (#164144).

The flower was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the leaves with Mini Glue Dots.

The sentiment is from Sentimental Park stamp set (#160561. This sentiment is actually “Let’s Celebrate” but I only wanted “celebrate” for this card. When I inked this, I covered “Let's” with a post it note, inked “celebrate”, with Poppy Parade ink, removed the post it note and stamped the sentiment. This is an easy way to stamp part of a stamp. I cut this with a Delicate Forest die (#162679). This die is too large so I cut the sentiment close to one end of the word, then turned the die around and cut close to the other end of the word. The sentiment was then attached with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional and Mini Glue Dots.

Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used on the flower and the Antique Pearls 164679) were added to finish the card.
