CARD CLASS WITH THE NEW IRRESITIBLE BLOOMS BUNDLE

I think you will just love this new bundle Irresitible Blooms and the Coordinating Designer Series Paper - Hello Irresistible! This set has beautiful floral images and font and some unique dies! It's being released as one of the first new products in Stampin' Ups! online exclusinve products.  These products will be released online only throughout the year and not in a catalog. You can view them here - Download Online exclusives march 2023

With this first card I show how to make a 3D rose using three stamped images of the large bloom.  It also has the long ribbon-like die cut on the left side. I'm thinking of it as a trellis. The Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper actually has leaves and roses that you can die cut out of the paper to use.  The roses are stamped but the leaves are fromt he designer series paper.

This second card features some of the DSP with beautiful floral rose images on it. (It's soooo easy to make beautiful cards with this DSP!)

Touches of White And Crumb Cake enhance the card. The tags are cut with the Tailored Tags Dies and the white leaves are cut with dies from the set.

The third card features a couple of the blooms from the designer series paper, crinkle ribbon and an embossed "hello" on black cardstock.

I love the deisgner series paper on the card base - ooo la la!

The fourth card features some of the Pretty Peacock designer series paper and the circle die that has such a beautiful design!

The frosted dots add just that special final touch to the cards!

PLUS you get to choose a free Salabration item! If you don't have the Salabration catalog you can scroll through it by clicking on the picture to the right of this post.

The first card uses stamps from the Silly Goose Stamp Set, which is of course - Silly!  I love it!

Also featured is the Country Gingham Designer Series Paper and the Black and White Gingham Ribbon. Sweet Sorbet color is the star of the show for this card.

The second card is "hoot" with that flying owl and snippets of more paper from the Country Gingham DSP. The Adorable Owls Stamp Set is one of the free stamps sets in the Salabration Catalog.  It's free with a $50.00 order.

And here is the same card with tails on the strips of paper:

I like it better with the tails.  How about you?

The gift bag is made from two sheets of 10" x 10" Designer Series Paper and I've used one that's free during Salabration - A Day at the Farm.  I love this paper, but then of course, I do live on a farm! 

The handle is used from the left over designer series paper that was trimed off one of the 10" x 10" squares. The rectangles and squares on the card front are also from the trimmed dsp.

I love how the card in the clear pocket decorates the bag! This would be a really cute bag for a baby gift as well.

The second card was made using the Legendary Ride Bundle and Ready to Ride Specialty DSP. I love the sentiments in this set. I've added touches of Distressed Gold DSP on the front with the gold strip and gold die cut overlay on the motorcycle.  The motorcycle is die cut from the Ready to Ride DSP.

Birthday Card Class #3 With Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper

This is birthday card class #3 in my series for the new year! We all need birthday cards, and it's always nice to have a stash on hand! Tonight I featured cards and a gift bag made with the free Salabration Paper - Favored Flowers.  I also used the coordinating Fragrant Flowers Bundle from the Mini Catalog. Together you can make some gorgeous floral cards and projects!

**How to get the kits and tutorial for two of each of these cards (4 cards total) and a 6 x 6 sampling of the Favored Flowers DSP for FREE: (I'm sorry I can only ship to USA addresses).

    Simply place an order of $35.00 or more before tax and shipping in my online store this week (by midnight Jan. 30, 2023) and use host code     YQVRR7NA at checkout or simply click on this link with the embedded host code to shop: Shop Here

    If your order is $50.00 or more you will get the kits and 6 x 6 sampling of Favored Flowers DSP AND a pack of the Milky Dots Gems AND 1 Salabration item!

    If your order is $100.00 or more you will get the kits and 6 x 6 sampling of Favored Flowers DSP AND a pack of the Milky Dots Gems And 2 level 1 Salabration items or 1 level 2 item!

     If your order is $150.00 or more do not use the host code so you get the Host rewards and you will get all of the above, except you will get 3 level 1 Salabration items or 1 level 2 Salabration item plus 1 level 1 Salabration item!

This first card showcases two different patterns of the DSP and the large floral die cut. (Yes, a couple of the sheets have floral images that can be cut out with coordinating dies). 

And here is a Birthday version of that card. The sentiment is from the Celebrate With Tags set:

I love the Fresh Freesia with the Black Background and touches of Evening Evergreen.

The second card is a Slide and Lock Card:

And here is the birthday card version:

 

The Slide and Lock Mechanism is hidden between two layers of one of the Scalloped Contours Dies which enables it to be slid up and down or off the card.

To create the mechanism:

Die cut two tags with the middle Scalloped Contours Die:

From Basic White Cardstock cut out two pieces 3 5/8" x 2 1/4". Score each one on the short side at 1 1/8" down the middle and fold in half:

 

Adhere one of them to one side of one of the die cuts with the opening facing to the outside:

Add the other 3 5/8" x 2 1/4" folded piece of Basic White Cardstock to the other side with the opening facing outward:

Next glue the remaining die cut to the top of the layers.

This is what it looks like looking down on it. Notice the open "wings" on each side.  This is how you slide it.

Gift Bag and Card:

This gift bag has a matching card that hangs on the bag. The card is made with designer series paper left over from creating the gift bag!

Here is the Birthday Bag and Card:

I used DSP from the Rainy or Shine Specialty DSP for the second card.  It's so bright and colorful!

The banners are from the Sylish Shapes Dies and the card is topped off with a piece of Polished Pink Open-Weave Ribbon.

The third card is a 3 panel card z-fold and again I used dsp from the Rain or Shine Specialty Designer Serires Pack.  I love this paper with the field of flowers on it! And the three little owls give a "hoot! hoot!"

And here's the card open:

I used the vellum so you can see the designer series paper better.  *(Note: I used Basic White Card Stock on the FB live card  because the vellum didnt' hold up well with constant opening and closing.)  The candles and balloon are from the Celebrate With Tags Dies set.

The back of the card is simply decorated and has lots of room to write a note:

Bruno and Kylie's International Blog Hop January 2023

I'm excited to be a part of Kylie and Bruno Bertucci's International Blog Hop and share my November thank you cards with you!

You may be starting here or have come from another blog - either way you can find the link list at the bottom of this post so that you can see every blog post and idea today from all over the world!! Enjoy!!

My customer thank you cards this month are made with products from the gorgeous Regency Park Suite. This suite has two stamp and die Bundles and I'm using the Sentimental Park Bundle (stamps and dies) and the Petal Park Builder Punch from the Petal Park Bundle.

I also used frames from the Framed Florets Dies to make the Night of Navy Frame. The Navy frame creates a balance between the yellow in the card front layer and the yellow polka dots in the oval  behind the sentiment. 

I love the Night of Navy Bordered Ribbon in this collection and it adds such a nice touch to the card. 

The Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots add some lovely sparkle to the card front and the centers of the flowers.

The small flowers around the sentiment are punched from the DSP with  Petal Park Builder Punch. Several sheets of the DSP are made to easily punch flowers from!

And here's a pic of the gorgeous Regency Park DSP with the beautiful foliage and flowers!

I hope you enjoyed seeing the details about making this card! Make sure you click a link below to continue on the blog hop.  You'll enjoy a fabulous paper crafting trip around the globe!

In the next few weeks I will be teaching a series of birthday card classes using new stamp sets from the Mini and Salabration catalogs.  This week's class features the Share a Milkshake Bundle.

You do need to use this host code at checkout when you order: RDQWHGA7 or shop using this link with the embedded host code: Shop With Embedded Host Code Thank you to everyone who ordered last week!

For all of these cards I've used the beautiful SAB Dandy Designs designer series paper with it's soft pastel colors.  It's one of the products you can purchase for free with a $100.00 purchase right now during Salabration. 

I love that there is a die cut in the large scoop to insert the straw in!  The sentiment is accented with the die cut cherries. and the font in the stamp set is very retro.

The next card features the sundaes with fudge toppings and a cherry on top - yum!

And the third card has the adorable ice cream cones! The die that cuts the waffle cones and adds the criss cross embossing on them. 

Which card is your favorite?
