I just love the stitched flowers in the In Bloom Bundle. And yes, I know I probably have a ton of flower stamps and really didn’t need another one, but I could not resist these stitched dies.
I do love flowers, but since I do not have a green thumb, I decided this bundle was worth it because the flowers will live forever!
- Begin with a Basic White card base that measures 5 ½ x 8 ½”, score at 4 ¼”.
- Randomly stamp flower, big and small all over the front, use some leaves and some accent dots to create a designer series paper look. I used Rococo Rose, Pretty Peacock and Mossy Meadow.
- Cut a 3 ¼ x 5” piece of Basic White cardstock and use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine to dry emboss it with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. I used the one with the butterflies.
- Use the flower and leaf dies from the In Bloom Bundle to cut a flower out of Pretty Peacock and Rococo Rose cardstock. The leaves are cut using Mossy Meadow cardstock.
- Layer a big and little flower w/leaves to the top left of the embossed white cardstock.
- Stamp the Happy Birthday greeting from Sweet Strawberry in Pretty Peacock ink on some Basic white cardstock and then cut it out using the frame die in the bundle.
- Add a small Rococo Rose flower and a few leaves to the corner of the greeting and pop it up on the cardstock with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Isn’t amazing that just stamping these flowers creates a beautiful designer series paper look. I am sure there are a plethora of other stamps in my collection that will create this same effect. Sometimes the simplest things make a card beautiful.
I encourage you to be creative with your stamp collection and create your own designer series paper. Don’t forget if you want to add the In Bloom Bundle to your stamping toys, you still have time this month to earn FREE Sale-a-Bration sets!
