ART IN BLOOM

Hello and welcome to today’s project. Thanks for popping by to check it out.

This is my second project using the Art in Bloom Bundle.

ART IN BLOOM BUNDLE (ENGLISH)

The bundle includes the new Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder. You can emboss and die cut at the same time – the triple flower die sits in the embossing folder. AMAZING!

I used the Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In Colour Shimmer Vellum for this card.

I embossed the base layer and adhered it to the front of the card base. Then I embossed and cut the flowers four times – two in the Fresh Freesia Shimmer Vellum and White Vellum. I gave them a gentle scrunch before alternating on top of the base layer flowers.

I embossed some of the Evening Evergreen Shimmery Vellum and fussy cut some of the leaves. Then I cut two of the leaves using the leaf dies. I used some of the Multipurpose Glue to secure the leaves under the flowers. The message was stamped using Evening Evergreen and cut using the banner die from the Bloom Dies. I added some 2021-2023 In Colour Jewels to the card front and then stamped the card insert and envelope also.

The 2021-2023 In Colour Shimmer Vellum is very shimmery – no need for Clear Wink of Stella on this card.

It is always fun to start using new products and this bundle is going to be amazing.

Who would you send this card to? Who makes you happy?

Happy stamping.

BRIGHT & BEAUTIFUL

Hello lovely crafters. Thank you for popping by today.

I decided to use the Art in Bloom Bundle for this project. This bundle includes the stamp set and a new Bloom Hybrid Embossing Folder. I have a project that I’ve made for tomorrow’s post that will show you how this works.

ART IN BLOOM BUNDLE (ENGLISH)

For this card I simply used the stamps and dies.

I started by stamping the background using Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody and Polished Pink. Using the Stamparatus is the perfect way to position the images equally apart – and, parallel! This background piece was then adhered to the card base.

The flowers and leaves were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento before I stamped the colours. Then they were die cut and popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and placed on the card front. The card insert and envelope were also stamped with one of the flower images.

I added Clear Wink of Stella to each of the flowers. Some Polished Pink 2021-2023 In Colour Jewels finished the card.

These are most of the products I used to make this card. I only have a few of the Jewels left on my sheet so I didn’t place them in this photo.

Which ‘Dear Friend’ would you send this card to? I think it would make a great card to cheer someone uo because it is so bright.

Happy stamping.

STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE

Hello and thanks for popping by. I have a very sweet treat to share with you today.

Today’s project was inspired by a block of chocolate I found when I was shopping the other day.

I was drawn to the colour of the chocolate – rich pink with a black and gold label. I knew that I could make a great gift box to pop it inside and give as a gift. The Kokopod chocolate is made in Queensland and is made with strawberry dust blended into white chocolate. There’s also some strawberry dust sprinkled on the front of the block.

I knew that I would use a piece of the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper to make the gift box. The birthday greeting, from the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set, on the label was heat embossed in gold. The label was cut using one of the Tasteful Labels Dies. I made the strawberry in the same way before punching it out using the Strawberry Builder Punch. The label had Stampin’ Dimensionals positioned on the bottom half of the back so that the flap could fit under the top half.

I used the Detailed Trio Punch to round off the corners of the flap. To finish off the label I added some gold Metallic Pearls.

Who would give this sweet treat to? Who, do you know, would like a strawberry milkshake chocolate?

Happy stamping.
