Two-Tone Flora

Hello friends,

The Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) is a Two-step stamping set and that is how I stamped these flowers. I am so happy that this stamp set and the co-ordinating Two-Tone Flora dies (#159181) aren’t retiring.

The flowers were stamped with Fresh Freesia ink (#155611). I stamped the “lines” of the flower as normal and for the solid image of the flower  I stamped off first then stamped the image. The leaves were stamped with Soft Succulent ink (#155778). The stamped flowers & leaves were cut with the Two-Tone Flora dies. The gold leaves were cut with a die from Around The Bend (#160650).

The green card front is from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) and I used the Stitched Greenery Die (#155451) for the “stitching”. This was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

I used a die from the Stylish Shapes dies (#159183) to cut 3 pieces from the Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) and attached these to the card front. The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430), the stamped leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and the Gold leaves were backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). This gold card is also from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack.

“Happy Anniversary” is from the Celebrating You stamp set (#158028) and stamped with Fresh Freesia ink. This was also cut with a Stylish Shapes Die and attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 

The retiring products are the Fine Shimmer Paper pack, Soft Succulent ink, Stitched Greenery Die and Celebrating You stamp set.

The Fresh Freesia ink which is in the retiring 2021-2023 In Colors will be returning. The other 4 colours will retire.

Friends Are Like Seashells

Hello friends,

I decided I should use some products which I seem to have neglected lately with all the new things available. So I have used the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set (#158204) and the Seaside Seashells Dies (#156095) on this card today.

The shells have been stamped with Highland Heather ink (#147103), Orchid Oasis ink (#159214), Fresh Freesia ink (#155611) and Balmy Blue ink (#147105). The star fish are stamped with Pale Papaya ink (#155670).

The shells, starfish & seaweed are all cut with the Seaside Seashells dies. I used Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) for the seaweed. After cutting the shells and seaweed I dry embossed with the Seashells 3D Embossing Folder (#154309).

I also embossed a piece of Basic White card (#159228) with the Embossing Folder, then attached the piece of Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper (#160413) to this and attached it to the Basic White base card.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped with Orchid Oasis ink and cut with a Meadow Die (#155852).

The seaweed, a star fish & the Fresh Freesia shell were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the other shells, star fish & sentiment.

The retired Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels were added to finish the card. I added shimmer to all the stamped images with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

Brilliant Wings

Hello again,

I seem to be making so many cards lately with flowers so decided it was time to get the butterflies out as I haven’t used them for a while ( and I do love butterflies). This butterfly is from the Brilliant Wings Dies (#155523).

The green paper is from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428) and I dry embossed this with one of the Basics Embossing Folders (#161598). There are 3 different folders in this pack. I then matted this with the Calypso Coral Card (#124392) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

I cut 3 strips of DSP is from the Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper (#160413) and attached them to the card front. The sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Calypso Coral ink (#147101), then cut with a die from the Stitched Rectangles (#151820). I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the sentiment to the card.

The butterflies were cut from the Gold from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack and Calypso Coral card. The two butterflies were attached together with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) then the butterfly was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A Brushed Brass Butterfly (#158136) was attached to the sentiment and the Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots (#160582) were attached to the centre of the butterfly.

Two-Tone Flora

Hello friends,

Sometimes you might not expect to use some colours together but when you see them in a designer paper you realise they do look great together.. that’s how I chose the colours for this card.

The DSP is the Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) and this was matted with Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached to the Basic White base card (#159558).

I dry embossed the Calypso Coral card (#124392) with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#154317) and attached this to the card. “Happy Birthday” from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595) was stamped with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214). This and the Orchid Oasis card were cut with Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046).

The flowers from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) were stamped with Orchid Oasis ink. This is a Two-step stamping set, so I stamped the “lines” first, then stamped the full flower using the stamping off method to get a lighter colour. These were cut with the Two-Tone Flora dies (#159181).

The leaves were cut with dies from the Around The Bend (#160649) from Soft Succulent card (#155777) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). The sentiment & flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The embellishments are the Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) which I coloured with Orchid Oasis Stampin’ Blends (#159223). I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the flowers.

Sentimental Park

Hello everyone,

The Sentimental Park bundle (#160567) includes the Sentimental Park stamp set (#160561) and the Sentimental Park Dies (#160566) and used for the flowers and sentiment on this card.

I chose the beautiful Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) for the card front and this was matted with Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

“Thinking Of You” is from the Sentimental Park stamp set and stamped with Orchid Oasis ink (#159214). The flowers were stamped with Orchid Oasis ink, Fresh Freesia ink (#155611) and Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). I stamped the outline of the flowers, then re-stamped the inside with the same ink but stamped off first to give a lighter colour. The flowers, sentiment and the detailed Orchid Oasis die-cut label under the sentiment were all cut with the Sentimental Park Dies. These were then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The embellishments are the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449).

The detailed die cut allows you to slip the sentiment under the 2 corners for a lovely effect.

Two-Tone Flora Bundle

Hi everyone,

The Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) is a Two-Step stamping set, so you can stamp 2 different colours on the flowers - one for the outline and one for the solid colour.

I stamped 3 flowers with the “outline” of the flowers using VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). This needs to be set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The leaves were also gold embossed. I then stamped the flowers with the solid colours using Balmy Blue ink (#147105), Pool Party ink (#147107) and Calypso Coral Ink (#147101). The leaves and flowers were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181).

The Fancy Flora 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#160413) was matted with the gold from the Fine Shimmer 12”x12” Paper Pack (#160428) then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). 

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and also Gold Embossed. I used a Seasonal Labels Die (#156299) to cut the sentiment.

The sentiment, Balmy Blue & Calypso Coral flowers and the leaf near the sentiment were all attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Mini Glue Dots (#103683) were used to attach the other flower & leaves. The embellishments are the Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls (#160449).

TIP: To save your gold shimmer paper (or other specialty papers) cut a piece from the middle before attaching the DSP on top.
