Blossoms in Bloom Bundle #154123
Guest stamper, my friend and Team member, Michelle Miller, created this CUTE fun fold using Blossoms in Bloom Stamp Set #152684!
To create this fancy fold, start with a 5-1/2 x 4-1/4" base. Center and attach a narrow card cut 2-1/2 x 11", scored at 5-1/2". It's simple and striking!
Such cheerful colors! This is one of my very favorite stamp sets and bundles in the Annual Catalog!! Thanks for sharing, Michelle! LOVELY card!
Queen Anne's Lace is a wildflower, and now a lovely stamp set, too! This stamp set took my eye!
Queen Anne's Lace Stamp Set #152607 is a two-step design, but easy and quick to line up.
When adding color to the flower, I "stamped off" to get a soft look.
Wink of Stella #141897 adds glitter to the flowers.
The Peony is an essential classic garden perennial plant! This is such a lovely 3D flower die in this Peony Garden Suite #154129!!
These colors are the calming Basic Grey and Petal Pink. The die cut Peony is sponged with Petal Pink to accent the many petals.
The Peony Garden Designer Series Paper #152483 is soft and elegant!!
The flower petal die cuts "insert" into the largest flower die cut. It's so unique and creates a very full, multi-petal flower!
One word: ELEGANT! A beautiful card with a beautiful message! This is the Forever Greenery Suite #154143 of gorgeous coordinated foliage images and products!
The gold leaves are an overlay in the the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper #152493! The paper also contains gold foliage accents. GORGEOUS!!
This sentiment touches my heart! Many, many wonderful possibilities with the lovely Forever Green Suite of products!
WHAT special treatment did I use on this adorable Jar of Flowers Bundle w/ PUNCH #154064??
ANSWER: I punched a jar from a Window Sheet #142314 using the Jar Punch from the bundle to create GLOSS like real glass! Easy, Fast, Effective! All the stamping was done on the card stock, not the window sheet.
The flowers are colored with Stampin' Up! BLENDS, alcohol markers. The "water in the jar" is the reversible stamp image - so handy!!

When I first saw the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint #150691 in the Holiday Catalog, I thought of these Cotton stalks in the Country Home Stamp Set #147678. It's the PERFECT touch of fluffy texture!
The little bottle of magic, puffs up like: snow, cotton, lamb's wool, clouds or whipped cream!!
Experiment and practice before using this product on your finished design. For larger areas, you can apply the puffing liquid right from the tip of the bottle. I wanted small cottony puffs on my card so this worked well for me;
1. SHAKE bottle.
2. Apply a small puddle on scrap paper.
3. Use a toothpick to dot liquid in small areas. Use less than you think because it will expand.
4. Heat with a Heat Tool to puff. It grows as it puffs! LOTS OF FUN!!
The background is one piece of Mercury Glass Designer Acetate #150441 cut 5-1/2 X 4-1/4", then diagonally to make two cards. Old Olive card base.
Cajun Craze card base. Coloring is done with the amazing Stampin' Up! BLENDS alcohol markers! Try it!

Second, add the shading with the darker marker. Last, go over the edge where the light and dark meet with the light shade to soften. I used the Highland Heather Combo Pack of Blends Markers #147276.
This is a nice "all-purpose" card to have on hand for many occasions! TRY IT!
