Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper

Hi crafty friends,

The Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper (#161139) and the Irresistible Blooms Bundle (#161150) have been used on this card today.

I cut a large and small circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) from the designer series paper. The middle size circle was cut from Pretty Peacock card (#150886). I cut the circles in half and taped them together with the half circles offset.

The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (#161600), then matted with Pretty Peacock card and attached to the Basic White base card.

I attached the half circles to the card front. I added a strip of Pretty Peacock card along the middle. The sentiment is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and stamped with Melon Mambo ink (#147051). I used a die from the Timeless Arrangements (#161525) to cut the sentiment.

The flowers from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) were stamped with Melon Mambo ink and cut with the co-ordinating Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149). These were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The leaves, using Lost Lagoon card (#133686), and backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) were also cut with the Irresistible Blooms dies.

The trio of embellishments are from the Blooming Pearls (#162238).

This bundle and designer paper are from the Online Exclusives, along with a great variety of products. If you would like to see all of these products go to https://www.stampinup.com.au

Irresistible Blooms

Hi my friends,

The Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) and Irresistible Blooms dies (#161149) have been used for the flowers on todays card.

The Designer Series Paper is Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” DSP (#161139) and this co-ordinates with the stamp set & dies. This was attached to the Daffodil Delight card base (#121680). “Sending” is cut with dies from the Sending dies (#159271) using Daffodil Delight card & Basic White card (#159228). I used Adhesive Sheet (#152334) on the back of the white card, making it easy to adhere it to the Daffodil Delight card. This was then attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The circles were cut with Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183). “Love & Big Hugs” from the Sending stamp set (#158701) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094). The flowers from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set were stamped with Daffodil Delight ink and cut with the Irresistible Blooms dies. I added glimmer to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).

I taped the circles and small flower to the card and the larger flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were cut from Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) backed with Adhesive sheet and attached to the card. The cute dragonfly is a sneak peek from the up coming Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds (#162743) and will be available Online in November.

The butterfly was fussy cut and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Nature’s Prints

Hello again stamping friends,

For this card I have used the Nature’s Prints stamp set (#158793) for the leaves and the sentiment. When I started this card I had imagined a totally different card but am really happy with how the final card looks.

I used Pretty Peacock ink (#150083) for the sentiment and the smaller leaves at the back. The fern leaves were stamped with Lost Lagoon ink (#161678). The leaves and sentiment were cut with the co-ordinating Natural Prints dies (#158800).

I cut the border of the Basic White base card (#159228) with an Elegant Borders die (#161593). I dry embossed a piece of Basic White card with one of the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folders (#157980) and attached it to the card.

The smaller leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the fern & sentiment.

The Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper (#161139) was attached to the base card.

Countryside Corners

Hello friends,

Today (1st May) is the last day to purchase any remaining retiring products from the Annual catalogue and mini catalogue. By the time you see this it may be too late to purchase the retiring products. The are lots of products carrying over to the new catalogue as well as lots of new products. I have used a mix of “old” & “new” products on todays card.

The Countryside Corners stamp set (#161468) was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083) onto Very Vanilla card (#106550). This stamp set has 6 border images in the one stamp as shown below. The dies co-ordinating with this stamp will cut out each different design. I used the die so I could see the dotted lines and used the next smaller die to cut the Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161139).

I dry embossed the Pretty Peacock card (#150886) with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders (#161598). The corners were punched with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878) then this was attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) onto the DSP with Pretty Peacock ink then I attached this to the stamped card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). This was taped to the Pretty Peacock card.

I cut the Pearlescent Specialty Paper (#154291) with an Eden Die (#157831) and attached this to the Pretty Peacock card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

The butterfly was cut with a Designer Tags Die (#159165) from the Gold Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) and attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots. The small butterfly embellishments are the Brush Brass Butterflies (#158136).

The Eden dies and Fine Shimmer Paper are the retiring products.

Hello, Irresistible

Hello my friends,

I have had a very busy few weeks and my craft table & room needed a huge clean up, so did that today in between appointments which took up most of my day. During my clean up I found a heap of bits & pieces which I have stamped & cut over the weeks but haven’t used, so this card is made with some of these pieces I found. Just what I needed when I had very little time to make a card.

I cut the White Textured Shimmer Paper (#160838) with a die from the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149). This was attached to the Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper (#161139), then matted with Flirty Flamingo card (#141421).

“With Sympathy” is from the retired stamp set Special Moments. This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). A die from the Meadow Dies (#155852) was used to cut the sentiment. I threaded the ribbon through the label and wrapped it around the card front and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The flower from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) was stamped with VersaMark and embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) on Flirty Flamingo card. The flower & leaves were cut with the Irresistible Blooms dies. I used the Gold Fine Shimmer Paper (#160428) for they leaves and these were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The flower & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls (#160449) were added to finish the card.

Now it’s back to more cleaning up but would prefer to be making cards.

The Irresistible Blooms Bundle (#161150) and the Hello, Irresistible 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#161139) are included in the online Exclusive products and have used them on this card.

I cut 4cm from the bottom of the front of the Basic White base card (#159228). I attached the 2 pieces of DSP to the base card.

I cut another piece of Basic White card and a piece of Flirty Flamingo card (#141421) with a die from the Basic Borders (#155558) and attached these to the top inside of the base card.

The flowers from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set (#161140) were stamped with VersaMark (#102283) onto Flirty Flamingo card. This was sprinkled with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056). These were then cut with the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots ($103683). The leaves were cut with the dies and I used the White from the Textured Shimmer Paper (#160838) and these were also attached with Mini Glue Dots.

The sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was also White Heat Embossed. The embellishments are the Iridescent Pastel Gems (#160429).

TIP: some of the flowers and leaves from the DSP can also be cut with the dies. I love that!!
