Two Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms Cards

March 16, 2023

Today I have 2 more cards to show you from the Stampin' Up! Irresistible Blooms bundle from the recent Online Exclusives product release of 20 brand new products. These products are all part of the Hello Irresistible suite of products. Theses cards are both pretty quick and simple as my wrist is still in a brace so I am a bit limited in the cardmaking department for a few more weeks.

For this first one I have used Crumb Cake as the base and for embellishing. I really like how it coordinates with the greens in the Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper. I've used the part of one of the dies cuts under the sentiment label for a bit of interest. The sentiment label for this one is made using to layers of the Stampin' Up! Something Fancy Dies from the January to April Mini Catalogue.

Here's a closer look at the Something Fancy dies. They can either be purchased by themselves or in a bundle together with a great sentiment set. There are lots of great layering options with these dies and they fit many sentiments - not just the ones that are in the coordinating stamp set. I will do another blog post soon showing lots of layering options.

This second Irresistible Blooms card is very simple. I loved this piece of paper from the DSP so much that it kind of spoke for itself. The card base is Petal Pink, and then in addition to the DSP I just added some white seam binding ribbon, the sentiment and a couple of the Loose Frosted Embellishments from the Stampin' Up! Hello Irresistible suite (these are easy to stick on with glue dots). I really like the font on in this stamp set too - it's nice and big and bold, yet has a fun casual look at the same time!

Here's another look at the Irresistible Blooms stamp set, and Hello Irresistible bundle. You can find links to these products in my online store, at the end of this blog post.

Free 12 sheet Regency Park Paper Pack with Stampin' Up! Petal Park Punch Bundle Purchase

March 15, 2023

Hello friends. I have a great offer for you for the rest of March. When you purchase the Stampin' Up! Petal Party stamp set and coordinating Petal Builder Punch from me ($67.50 plus postage for the bundle), you will receive a free coordinating pack of 12 sheets of the gorgeous coordinating Regency Park DSP (6x6", 12 double sided sheets). The punch even punches out some of the images in the DSP. The paper has lots of gorgeous colours with coordinating spots, stripes and floral designs. You don't need to do anything fancy to claim your paper. Just order the bundle from me by the end of March and I will send the paper at the end of the month. Those people who have already ordered the bundle from me this month will also be getting the free paper.

Purchase the Petal Park Punch Bundle in my online store for $67.50 or order directly with me by phone (0412 120 498) or email (cdaly@bigpond.net.au).

The Petal Park bundle has been super popular because of it's lower price point compared to die bundles, the versatility of the punch and the way the punched images and the stamped leaves work together to create a dimensional image.

You can use the punch to punch out two different types of stamped flowers, and the punch also can cut out cardstock floral layers, which when put together make a cute dimensional floral image (or use them separately as embellishments).

Here's a card I made recently using this Stampin Up Petal Park bundle and the new Radiating Stitches Dies (which aren't in a catalogue but can be found in the new online exclusives section in the website, and either purchased online or directly through me).

In this instance I have used the stamped flowers in Melon Mambo and cut them out with the punch. I have then popped them up with Dimensionals, and added an Iridescent Rhinestone Embellishment to the centre of each flower. The background leaves are stamped with Granny Apple Green, and the sentiment is embossed in white embossing powder onto a label cut out from the Radiating Stitches Dies. I stamped some of the smaller flowers in Basic Grey onto the Basic Grey base card. I like how that carries through the imagery and ties everything together.

Here's another sample from the Stampin' Up! concept artists.

Stampin' Up! Fun Fold Cards: How to make a Diagonal Joyfold Card

March 07, 2023

I blogged this Diagonal Joy Fold fun fold card back in December, but since then I have had lots of requests for instructions and measurements. It uses the gorgeous Fancy Flora DSP from the Stampin' Up! 2023 January to April Mini Catalogue.

I have a FREE written tutorial you can download at the end of the post (with measurements in both imperial and metric), but here are a few more photos for you.

I have used Orchid Oasis cardstock as the base, Fancy Flora DSP from the Stampin' Up! January to April Mini Catalogue for the paper, and Artistically Inked Stamp Set for the stamped embellishments and sentiment.
