Stampin’ Up! Fabric Flowers on Cardstock!

Stampin’ Up! Fabric Flowers on Cardstock!

Hey there! I'm heading to the dr later today to see what they can do for this crud I have. Every year in May I go down with a massive seasonal allergy attack that leaves me coughing, feverish, and feeling overall lousy. I have allergy meds I take all year long, and a few other daily things to help keep my allergies at bay the rest of the time, but when the wheat blooms (which this year is all around my house!) I'm done for.

Today I have a different bloom for you, fabric flower blooms:

Stampin_up_fun_flowers_bigz_1

I had a request from a hostess last month for a fabric flower bouquet and matching card so this is what I came up with. Stampin' Up! doesn't sell fabric anymore, so I broke in to my stash of fat quarter bundles to find this fabric. I matched this bundle with Midnight Muse, Gumball Green, and Marina Mist!

For shape we adhered cardstock to the fabric using the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets (retiring), then we cut them with a retiring flower die, the Fun Flowers Bigz L.

My next newsletter (going out tomorrow) will contain a tutorial to make these flowers, so if you aren't subscribed to receive my newletters, please go over to my sidebar to the "sign up for my email newsletter" box and sign up!

We stamped the inside and the envelope with Petite Petals flowers.

Here's a few new things you don't want to miss from Stampin' Up!

  • New Fast Fuse adhesive. Think ‘sticky strip’ in an applicator like Snail adhesive. (both Snail and Sticky Strip adhesives are still available)

Stampin’ Up! Free Shipping, Retiring Lists, Weekly Deals, and Secret Garden!

Stampin’ Up! Free Shipping, Retiring Lists, Weekly Deals, and Secret Garden!

Hey there! Just posting quick today. I have a workshop tonight and tomorrow night that I am prepping for, so I'm a bit time crunched today. I've been trying to add a few non-stamping additions to my day that take bites out of my prep (and blogging!) time, coupled with the dratted Typepad downtime that we experienced for almost 5 days, it's really gotten me out of my blogging routine! I'm trying to exercise more and eat healthier to try to relieve some inflamation and joint pain I've been experiencing. It seems to be helping, but I just don't have my new routine figured out yet. I'm so sorry!

If you get (and open) my  newsletter emails you know about the FREE SHIPPING that Stampin' Up! has going on right now, but just in case you missed it:

Stampin_up_secret_garden_kathy_johnson

A pretty little thinking of you card by Kathy Johnson from one of my past monthly swaps! Cathy stamped the Secret Garden image on Whisper White, then ran the layer through the Big Shot in the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder, giving it an embedded look! The greeting is from Thoughts & Prayers, and she cut out one of the Secret Garden blooms with the Secret Garden Framelit Dies.

Secret Garden stamps and framelits, as well as the Square Lattice TIEF are both on the Retiring List. Don't delay if you want them for your collection, and shipping is still free through tomorrow!

Stampin’ Up! Backyard Basics Butterfly Flower Card!

Stampin’ Up! Backyard Basics Butterfly Flower Card!

Hey there! It's a rainy, dreary day here, so I decided to share my bright and happy Backyard Basics Butterfly flower card with you today:

Stampin_up_backyard_basics_1 - Copy

I think this card would brighten up just about any day!

I used the "faux silk" technique on the butterfly again, just like I did on my previous Backyard Basics card HERE. I used Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango Stampin' Write markers on my stamp before stamping on my tissue paper, then covered my scrap of Whisper White cardstock completely with an Anywhere Glue Stick. After crumpling and re-opening the stamped tissue, I gently smoothed it over the glue, leaving a few creases and bumps to help give it that "slubbed silk" look. (Kimberly's wedding dress was slubbed sik, so I know what that is supposed to look like!) I perfectly "cut" the butterfly with the coordinating Backyard Basics Framelit.

I cut the Daffodil Delight card base and the Tangerine Tango layer with Floral Frames Framelits, then embossed them with the Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Folder.

A phrase from Petite Pairs, punched with the Word Window and bracketed with a couple of Brights Candy Dots invite you to open this card:

Stampin_up_backyard_basics_2 - Copy

Inside I repeated the layer shape, this time with Whisper White, stamping the coordinating phrase from Petite Pairs and a couple more butterflies!

I finished my ensemble by stamping another butterfly on my Whisper White envelope and lining it with a bit of Daffodil Delight Designer Paper cut with one of the Envelope Liner Framelits.

That's all for now, but tomorrow is the 15th, so be sure to come back to take the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop! Our group's theme is "Congratualtions!", so be ready to be WOW'd with some great ideas!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Five-Way Flower Pop n’ Cuts Card!

Stampin’ Up! Five-Way Flower Pop n’ Cuts Card!

Hey there! I'm back to day with the OPPOSITE of yesterday's post; instead of Clean-and-Simple, this one you could say is "high maintenance". lol!

Stampin_up_five_way_flower_1 - Copy

I used the Pop 'n Cuts Card Base Die for the card base. It makes fancy little curves on the front end of the base – I love it! I also clear heat-embossed the Five-Way Flower on both Melon Mambo and Pink Pirouette cardstock two times on each color before punching with all of the scallop circle punches in the catalog!

Stampin_up_five_way_flower_2 - Copy

Pretty much every layer is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. This would definitely be a special card for a special someone!

Stampin_up_five_way_flower_3 - Copy

I finished the inside with one of the phrases from Million & One, cut and layered with Deco Label Framelits.

Stampin_up_five _way_flower_closeCopy (2) - Copy

Up close you can see all the details of the heat-embossed, punched layers, as well as the fun trim details I added. I never seem to use the strips of connected pearls very much from the Pearls Basic Jewels very often, but they were the perfect choice to layer over the Victoria Crochet Trim and the Strawberry Slush 3/8" Ruffled Stretch Trim!

That's all for now! Check out my supply list for this card, then go to my Online Store to shop! Don't forget there's a new set of Weekly Deals, as well as the Clearance Rack to browse. You never know what you will find in there!

Please note: the "congratulations" greeting is from the Hostess Set, Express Yourself. I did not include it in the supply list because you can only choose it as part of your Hostess freebies when you submit an order of at least $150, whether it is just your own order, or a combined order of yours and those of your friends. If you have any questions about that, please contact me!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
