Sneak Peek - Flowers Flowers Flowers!

This post features some of the new Stampin' Up! catalog items.  They go live for purchase on June 4, 2019.

 This flower spray is from a new bundle called Bloom & Grow.  I used the watercolor pencils and Wink of Stella for some sparkle. 

 My intent was to place them above and below the greeting but it didn't work and the look with the sprays on both sides works really well.

 I didn't think much of these flowers at first at all.  They come from a bundle called Floral Essence.  Once I started stamping and punching them - WOW!  I had some really beautiful flowers!  I stamped the flower again in Pear Pizzazz and Eureka! Leaves!

I had the three flowers and the greeting on the card but it just needed something.  Once the Faceted Gems were added it was perfect!

 The greeting featured here comes from the stamp set To a Wild Rose.  I'm listing it below in the supplies list because you'll want that one too!  I'll have some posts coming featuring the entire stamp set.  It's beautiful.

A final thought on these cards... wouldn't they be fabulous wedding cards?

Hello and a Sad Goodbye

I never saw much done with this stamp set when it was available in the 2018-2019 Idea Book & Catalog.  It is retiring as of June 4, 2019. 

 I loved it the moment I saw it though I think many didn't understand - and didn't want to work with it.  It really was fussy.  I like fussy.  I like minutiae - very much.

I set up my Stamparatus with a template to place the pre-cut stitched ovals.  I then used 4 different colors of inks to produce the hello. 

I used this stamp set as a demo to show the Stamparatus at one of our events - I just love this stamp set so much!  I'm sorry it didn't get as much attention as I felt it deserved.

Everything is Rosy Suite - Limited Time until May 31st

Stampin' Up! has done it again!
We have a limited availability suite called Everything is Rosy.
Here you can see a picture with everything that's included in the suite.

Below are a few of my creations.  This suite is expensive.  It's pricey.  I spend a few days considering it.  I decided this one I needed.  The rose gold is beautiful!

 Before I took the greeting pieces apart, I stamped them all with the set included in the bundle.  Above you'll see the ribbon border punch, and below I used the new nested dies.

 This one is my favorite.  I just can't get over the gold foil with the navy.  Beautiful!

 There it is again.  WOW.

 I took many pics to get the mirrored piece to show.  Love those little mirrored accents!

Happy Birthday Frame

YES!  I have been creating!  I promise.  I've posted on my Demonstrator Facebook page a little more often than here recently.  I don't watermark my things there - and can post more quickly.

I saw this frame from another demonstrator, and thought it would be PERFECT for a kid's birthday.  It's so colorful and bright. 

 The frame and background paper are scrapbook size - 12x12.  I used my "math teacher" skills to figure the sizes of the squares and rectangular pieces.

 Many of the pieces are cut from the Designer Series Paper that went along with the background papers.  It just looks so much like a party!

 There are many techniques here - die cutting (of course), fussy cutting, alcohol markers, heat embossing, ribbon, and bling!

 I had a lot of fun with my Enamel Glitter Dots after the frame pieces were finished!

I have another framed piece we made in my club, BUT I can't show it yet.  It's a gift.  I'll show the picture after it is presented.
