Two-Tone Flora

Hi Stamping friends,

The Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) is a Two-Step set which is how I stamped these flowers.




I used Orchid Oasis ink (#159214) to stamp the “detailed” part of the flower. Then using the same ink and using the stamping off method, I stamped the “background” of the flower. The flowers were cut with the co-ordinating Two-Tone Flora dies (#159181).

The sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was also stamped with Orchid Oasis ink and cut with a die from the Sending dies (#159271).

For the leaves I used 3 different die sets. Gorgeously Made dies (#161202) were used for the leaves from Granny Apple Green card (#147014), Timeless Arrangements dies (#161525) for the leaves using Wild Wheat card (#161734) and Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and Cheerful Daisies dies (#161296) for the leaves from Pecan Pie card (#161726).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with one of the Cheery Patterns Embossing Folder (#162287), then this was matted with the Orchid Oasis card (#159265) and attached to the Basic White base card.

All the card for the leaves were backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334) before cutting. The leaves were attached to the card. The flowers & sentiment were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels (#158987) were added and Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used on the flowers to complete the card.

Two-Tone Flora

Hello again my stamping friends,

The Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) is a Two-step stamp set which allows you to create beautiful images in 2 simple steps.




The flowers were stamped with Sweet Sorbet ink (#159216) and Crushed Curry ink (#147087). I stamped the outline, then using the stamping off method to get a lighter colour I stamped the second image to give you the 2 tones of colour. The leaves from the same stamp set were stamped with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111). The flowers & leaves were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181).

I cut a piece of Basic White card (#159228) with one of the Elegant Borders Dies (#161593), then dry embossed it with the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder (#158655).

I attached a piece of the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper (#159237) to the Basic White base card then attached the die cut & embossed card on top.

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Sweet Sorbet ink and cut with a Tailor Made Tags die (#155563). I attached the sentiment, flowers and leaves with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add sparkle to the flowers and the Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to the card.

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.

Two-Tone Flora Bundle

Hello again,

I have been playing with the Two-Tone Flora stamp set #160844) again which is where you will find these flowers.



I stamped the flowers on Basic White card (#159228) with Pale Papaya ink (#155670), Fresh Freesia ink (#155611) and So Saffron ink (#147109). The flowers were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181) then I daubered the edges with the same inks.

I stamped the Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) for the background with the Stacked Stone Background stamp (#152556) using VersaMark (#102283) and added the Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). This gave the subtle but shiny look to the background which is just what I wanted to achieve. This card and the gold from the Fine Shimmer 12”x12” Paper Pack (#160428) were cut with the Deckled Rectangles dies (#159173) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The leaves are also cut from the Gold Fine Shimmer Paper. The dies to cut the leaves are from the Around The Bend dies (#160649) and the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149). The Gold paper was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting with the dies.

“Best Wishes” is from the Cottage Rose stamp set (#159040) and stamped with VersaMark with Gold Stampin’Emboss Powder (#155555). This was cut with another Deckled Rectangles die.

The flowers & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). A Brushed Brass Butterfly (#158136) and 3 small (retired) gold pearls were attached to the card.

I added small drops of the White Pearlised Enamel Effects (#156310) to the stamens of the flowers. Just ensure you leave this to dry as it doesn't dry instantly. I usually add this at the end and put aside for an hour or so.

Two-Tone Flora

Hi & Welcome,

I hope you are all having a great weekend and getting time to craft. 

I have used a variety of products on todays card with the flowers from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844). This is a Two-step stamp set but I have decided just to stamp the “line” image and not stamp the second image on top to colour the background of the flower.




I stamped 3 flowers with VersaMark (#102283) onto Basic White card (#159228) and added the Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The flowers were then cut with the co-ordinating die from the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181). I then daubered the edges of the flowers with Balmy Blue ink (#147105) which gives some depth to the flower.

The Basic White card front was cut with one of the Split Card Textures Dies (#159163) then matted with Balmy Blue card (#147007).

The sentiment is from the (retired) Special Moments stamp set and stamped with Balmy Blue ink. I used a die from the Waves Dies (#158840) to cut the sentiment. The ribbon (also retired) was threaded through the label and wrapped around the card front. I used Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) under the sentiment.The card front was then attached to the Basic White base card.

The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves are cut from the Silver from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack (#156457) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). The dies for the leaves are from Brushed Bouquet Dies (#160473), the Irresistible Blooms Dies (#161149) and the Around The Bend Dies (#160649).

The embellishments are from another retired product - Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels.

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.

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.

Two-Tone Flora Bundle

Hello friends,

Today I am showing you a sneak peek from the Mini Catalogue which starts on 5th January 2023. I am using the Two-Tone Flora bundle (#160414) and this is a two step stamp set which allows you to get the 2 colours on the flowers.



Each of the flowers are stamped using the Two-Step stamping method. I stamped each flower with the ink for the darker colour, then for the lighter colour I inked the stamp, “stamped off” onto scrap paper  then stamped on top of the first image. I found it easier to stamp the darker colour first so it is easier to line up the images. The ink colours used for the flowers are Starry Sky (#159212), Orchid Oasis (#159214), Sweet Sorbet (#159216) & Tahitian Tide (#159210). The small leaves were stamped with Parakeet Party (#159208) and the larger leaves are stamped with Granny Apple Green (#147095). The flowers and leaves were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181) and the stamp set is the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844). Have you noticed the stamp set, dies and bundle all have the same name which makes it so much easier to remember which stamps & dies go together.

The Basic White card front (#159228) was also cut with the same die set and attached to the Basic White base card. The leaves & flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683).

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Starry Sky ink, then cut with a Meadow Die (#155852) and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are the Iridescent Pastel Gems (#160429). I added some glimmer to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897).
