WOW, right? Let’s see if you can guess which one I had to play with first. I’ll give you a couple of hints. First, I love a product that can be used in lots of different ways. Second, anything rose gold, I just melt. I’ll bet you guessed it. It’s that fabulous Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper.
Because the Parisian Beauty set is so fabulous, I paired that bundle with this gorgeous new paper right off the bat.
By using my sponge brayer, I was able to add color to the Flowering Foils DSP. I love the Blushing Bride, Basic Gray color combo.
Once you add the color, be sure to buff the surface with a clean, dry paper towel. That will really make the foiling pop. This sheet has silver foiling, perfect for that Basic Gray card base.
Don’t you just love that sentiment? Perfect for lots of occasions.
But, remember, this beautiful foil paper is only one of the five new FREE products in the 2020 2nd Sale-a-Bration Release. I think this one will go fast. Be sure to add it to your first order, March 3rd.
How do you like all that dimension? It’s easy because Stampin’ Up! products all coordinate. No more searching for the perfect ribbon or embellishent.
Don’t forget to dress up those envelopes. You’ll even impress the postal worker. I’ld love to share my video tutorial with you. Enjoy!
Here’s how the magic happens.
Card Base – Basic Gray CS – 4 1/4″ x 11″, score @5 1/2″
Mat – Blushing Bride CS – 4″ x 5 1/4″
DSP Mat – Flowering Foils Specialty DSP – 3 3/4″ x 5″
Three coordinating products you can earn for FREE! Can’t get too much better than that. The Lovely Lily Pad stamp set, Lily Pad dies and the Lily Pad Impressions Designer Series Paper can all be yours for free, with a qualifying purchase.
Can I take a moment first to say, I love the color combo on this card. Think outside the box and I’ll bet you will surprise yourself. I sure did with a combination of Pretty Peacock, Flirty Flamingo Whisper White and Garden Green. Those are perfect colors for my Lovely Lily Pad card.
Whoa, did you notice the background impression? Yep, it’s back again. The Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder. Told ya, that’s one of my new favorites.
By embossing the Lovely Lily Pad image on Shimmery White cardstock, I was able to add a little watercoloring. Be sure to check out my video tutorial to learn how the Stamparatus made this quick and easy.
One of my favorite elements in the Lily Pad die set is that fabuluous border die. It’s the perfect size, easy to cut and makes such a statement. I just love it.
But wait, I almost forgot to tell you about one of the best features of the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set. Ready? It’s a revisible set. That means each stamp serves double duty. Want to see how that works? I filmed a video tutorial for you.
Here’s how the magic happens.
Card Base – Pretty Peacock CS – 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″
Mat – Whisper White CS – 5 1/4″ x 4″
Embossed Mat – Flirty Flamingo CS – 5″ x 3 3/4″, embossed with the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder.
Vertical Accent Mat – Pretty Peacock CS – 4 1/4″ x 1 3/4″ and Lily Impressions DSP – 4″ x 1 1/2″, ink the edges of the DSP in Garden Green ink.
Horizontal Accent Mat – Pretty Peacock CS – 4 1/4″ x 1 1/2″ and Lily Impressions DSP – 4″ x 1 1/4″, ink the edges of the DSP in Garden Green ink.
Accent Trim – Garden Green CS – two @ 1″ x 5″, cut with the die from Lily Pad set.
Lily, Lily Pad and Leaves – Shimmery White CS – 2 3/4″ x 6 1/2″, cut with the dies from Lily Pad set.
Can you believe it, we are already moving into the 1st full week of 2020! I’m kicking things off with my Bee Happy Sampler. It’s just too cute and what better message for the upcoming year.
As soon as I saw this bundle, I knew I would love giving it a play. My WOW Club Member, Connie, is having a party this week. Because Connie is an avid scapbooker, I wanted to design something she could use in that part of her crafting. Hence, the Bee Happy Sampler was born.
Stampin’ Up’s product coordination is the best. The Honey Bee bundle in the new Mini coordinates perfectly with the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper offered in the Sale-A-Bration brochure.
In the second block, of my Bee Happy Sampler, I wanted to create a little bee hive scene. One of the best parts of creating samplers is that the blocks can also be used and adapted into cards. And did you notice the texture in the background. I created that with the new Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder. Love!!
Ok, those bees are just too beautiful. Because I spritz them with Champagne Shimmer Mist, they sparkle and shine.
To create the “sunshine” background, I used a sponge brayer loaded with Crushed Curry ink. That’s a quick and easy technique. The letters, cut with the dies from the Hand Lettered Prose set, were also spritzed. I love the sparkle.
Because I’m still recuperating from my recent nasty fall, I couldn’t film a video for my Bee Happy Sampler. But, I did peck away at the keyboard to give you a very detailed PDF. Hope you can enjoy this and create a Bee Happy Sampler of your very own.
