Happy Monday friends, it's Stamp Review Crew blog hop time and for this one we are showcasing projects created with the gorgeous "Two Tone Flora" bundle! This was an absolute must have on my pre-order list and it really is such a pretty set. For my project l have combined it with the co-ordinating dsp, Fancy Flora! It is so lovely and the arty vibe is so easy to incorporate into a project. The bloom colours l have used are Calypso Coral-Evening Evergreen-Soft Succulent, these were dictated by the piece of dsp l chose. The sentiment is a retired fave and a set l still use called Label me Bold. I have added some basic pearls to add a little elegance. If you are happily hopping, you would have arrived here from Jay Soriano and l'm sure as always he has something fun, fabulous and creative to share! But if you've just landed here, you can follow the hop and see all of the wonderful crew projects by clicking the link above or "Next" banner below. Stamp Review Crew are a wonderfully talented group of Stampin Up! demonstrators from across the globe that come together twice a month to share lots of fabulous ideas using Stampin Up! products.

Hello friends, Today I am showing you a sneak peek from the Mini Catalogue which starts on 5th January 2023. I am using the Two-Tone Flora bundle (#160414) and this is a two step stamp set which allows you to get the 2 colours on the flowers. Each of the flowers are stamped using the Two-Step stamping method. I stamped each flower with the ink for the darker colour, then for the lighter colour I inked the stamp, “stamped off” onto scrap paper then stamped on top of the first image. I found it easier to stamp the darker colour first so it is easier to line up the images. The ink colours used for the flowers are Starry Sky (#159212), Orchid Oasis (#159214), Sweet Sorbet (#159216) & Tahitian Tide (#159210). The small leaves were stamped with Parakeet Party (#159208) and the larger leaves are stamped with Granny Apple Green (#147095). The flowers and leaves were cut with the Two-Tone Flora Dies (#159181) and the stamp set is the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844). Have you noticed the stamp set, dies and bundle all have the same name which makes it so much easier to remember which stamps & dies go together. The Basic White card front (#159228) was also cut with the same die set and attached to the Basic White base card. The leaves & flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683). “Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Starry Sky ink, then cut with a Meadow Die (#155852) and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are the Iridescent Pastel Gems (#160429). I added some glimmer to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897). “Love what you do and share what you love.” INSPIRE. CREATE.

Real Red with Two-Tone Flora & Something Fancy Hello. Welcome to Valley Inspirations with Andrea and the Art with Heart Colour Creations Blog Hop. We are working though the Stampin' Up! colours in alphabetical order, focussing on one colour each week. This week’s Blog Hop is focussing on a a strong red called Real Red. Real Red is part of the Regals Colour Family and is a strong primary colour. This colour is lovely when used for flowers or berries, fruit (eg strawberries), hearts, shoes or bright balloons and it is wonderful as a Christmas colour ... plus so much more. Real Red is produced in Stampin' Up!'s card-stock, both A4 & 12"x12"; Classic Stampin' inks (ink pads & re-inkers); Stampin' Write Markers; Stampin' Blends Combo; Watercolor Pencils; Regals Designer Series Paper as well as the Christmas Gifting Kit, Christmas Whimsy Card Kit, plus Real Red and Burlap Ribbon Combo, Real Red & Garden Green Ribbon Combo, Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon and Pearlized Enamel Effects. There is also a range of products using Real Red in the Clearance Rack - why not check them out. Real Red card-stock, ink and Stampin' Write Marker have been used in these projects plus a range of non-Real Red bits and pieces. Here are my cards: There is actually a third card as well. Here 'tis: CARDS 1 & 2: I started with a plan to create one card, but as I was crafting I decided to make a second as there would be quite a few bits and pieces left over. The cards are similar but with a number of differences. The process for creating cards 1 and 2 was the same it will be discussed once. The creation process started with cutting the large detailed die out from Basic White card-stock. This acted as a mask and was layered over Shimmery White card-stock. One drop of Real Red Classic Re-inker was added to a Stampin' Mister which was filled with water. A few pumps of mist was sprayed at a height over the die cut mask while it was lying on top of the Shimmery White panel. The trick was to spray enough to provide subtle coverage but not so much that it drenched the mask. I needed a second go to feel happy with the outcome - the first was too light. A background piece of Sahara Sand card-stock was embossed with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder. [NB The second card, pictured directly above, used the embossed side, while the first card used the de-bossed design. I love the way we can choose between the embossed and de-bossed sides.] The embossed Sahara Sand panel was lightly splattered using a Real Red Stampin' Write Marker and some White Craft ink (ie using the medium Water Painter) before being adhered directly to the card base; ie Thick Basic White card-stock for card 1 and Real Red card-stock for card 2. Once dry, the delicately misted panel was cut diagonally with Stampin' Up!s Paper Trimmer. The top piece was added to card 1 with Dimensionals and similarly, the bottom section to card 2. The Two-Tone Flora stamps create beautiful 2 step flowers using a base stamp with a detailed layer. The stamp set includes a number of different flowers - all lovely. I prefer stamping the detailed stamp first in the darker colour and then align the lighter full flower stamp over the top, however, some stampers prefer stamping the layers in the opposite order. Which way do you prefer? The colour combos used for these flowers were a) Real Red stamped in full strength for the detailed layer and stamped off for the base layer, b) Real Red stamped in full strength for the detailed layer and Blushing Bride for the base layer, c) Blushing Bride stamped in full strength for the detailed layer and stamped off Blushing Bride for the base layer. The leaves were stamped in Sahara Sand Classic ink; some full strength and some stamped off. Each of the flowers and leaves have coordinating dies. The flowers and leaves were arranged and adhered with either Dimensionals or Glue Dots. I felt it needed an extra bit of "lightness" so die cut some detailed leaves from the Fitted Florets dies. They were die cut from the discarded misted panel. A Linen Twine bow was tucked under the edge of a flower using a Glue Dot. A sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set was stamped in Sahara Sand ink on Basic White card-stock (card 1) and white heat embossed on Real Red card-stock (card 2). Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels were added as the finishing touch. A strip of Real Red card-stock was added to a Basic White card inner, with some remaining flowers and leaves adhered directly in place. C6 Basic White envelopes were stamped with leaves in Sahara Sand ink on both the envelope front and back flap. CARD 3: After creating the two cards above, the misted pale pink die cut mask was "staring at me". My first thought was "I must do something with that later." I don't know about you, but I have said that with so many bits and pieces - and they are still around ... somewhere. So I determined to create a third card for this blog hop. The large detailed die from the Two-Tone Flora dies was used to cut the front of a Thick Basic White card base. The coloured die cut was adhered directly over the die cut front. I used tiny dabs of Multi Purpose Liquid Glue on the thicker bits and the edges. Stamped and die cut flowers and leaves were arranged over a Basic White card-stock label that had been cut with one of the Something Fancy dies. A sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set was stamped in Sahara Sand ink. A Linen Twine bow and a few Iridescent Basic Rhinestone Jewels finished the card front design. A panel of Shimmery White card-stock was water-coloured (wet on wet technique) with Real Red and Blushing Bride inks. As the panel was drying, it was embossed with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder. When dry, it was directly adhered inside the card on the back panel. Another die cut label was positioned inside the card directly beneath the label on the card front. A brief personal message could be written here. A smaller left over flower and some leaves were adhered to the side of the inner label. While not really seen in the photograph, an extra label was adhered directly behind the top label to give a better finish inside the card. As mentioned above, a C6 Basic White envelope was stamped with leaves in Sahara Sand ink on both the envelope front and back flap. I hope you like this set of cards featuring Real Red (combined with Blushing Bride and Sahara Sand) together with the Two-Tone Floral and Something Fancy bundles. I love the lacy look of the die cut card front of Card 3 - it is something different. Having said that, I think Card 1 is my fav. Do you have a favourite??? There is more Real Red creativity.

Hello friends, I like to use subtle colours for Sympathy cards which I have done on this card. The flowers from the Two-Tone Flora stamp set (#160844) have been stamped with Pale Papaya ink (#155670). This is a Two Step stamp, so I stamped the finer lines first, then stamped the whole flower. To get the lighter colour for the whole flower I inked the stamp, stamped off, then stamped the flower. I find it easier to stamp the darker colour first so it’s easier to line up the second image. These flowers were cut with a Two-Tone Flora die (#159181). I adhered Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back of the Basic White card (#159228) before cutting the card front with another die from the same set. This was attached to the Basic White base card. Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) was used for the leaves and these were cut with dies from the Around The Bend dies (#160649). These were also backed with Adhesive Sheet. I attached the retired Soft Sea Foam ribbon to the card then attached the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Glue Dots (#103683). Then the leaves were adhered to the card. “Heartfelt Sympathy” is from the Seaside Bay stamp set (#160436) and stamped with Pale Papaya ink. A die from the Pretty Pillowbox (#156321) was used to cut the sentiment and this was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems (now retired) were added to the card, and I used the White Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics (#156310) on the stamins of the flowers. “Love what you do and share what you love.” INSPIRE.

Today’s card features the new Two-Tone Flora Bundle and Fine Shimmer Paper from the January – April 2023 Mini Catalog. Now one thing that is unfortunately is that no matter how I photograph this card you just can’t see the beautiful shimmer on the Fresh Freesia layer. I knew the minute I saw this bundle I had to have it and I was so right, it is amazing to work with and so easy to use. Here is what I came up with… The card base is Fresh Freesia cardstock cut to 4 ¼ x 11” and scored at 5 ½”. I then cut a layer that measures 4 x 5 ½” from one of the Fresh Freesia Fine Shimmer papers. I attached that layer to the center of my card base (it is about 1/8” narrower than the card base on each the left and right sides). I then cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 ¼ x 5 ½” and die cut the beautiful intricate floral pattern on the card front using one of the dies from the Two-Tone Flora Bundle. To finish the front the card I stamped (using the stamp set in the bundle) the details part of three of the flowers (image #1 below) onto Basic White with Fresh Freesia Ink and then stamped over those with the rest of the flower (image #2 below), for this I inked the stamp with Fresh Freesia Ink and stamped off once before adding it to the first image. I also stamped three sets of leaves from the set onto the cardstock using Pear Pizzazz ink and then die cut all the flowers and leaves using the coordinating dies from the bundle. I added these to the front of the card using Dimensionals. For the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and added one of the flowers and one set of leaves. I did the same for the envelope so everything coordinated really well. I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.

WOW! Let me just tell you... this card took a while to do, yet is too adorably cute! I decided to try my hand at the 'Pop-up Vase card. There are several tutorials on YouTube out there, so I won't go into detail here. (The Pop-up part is inside the card.) It took a bit of time to do, as the scoring of the Designer Series Paper kept ripping on me, so I added a reinforced piece on the other side of the 'Vase' part. Also, you definitely need to use heavy-duty double-sided sticky tape (or tear n tape) to attach to the card base. I didn't have any, so tried just Stampin' Seal+ first... only to have to utilize the Tombow liquid glue instead. I added a Wink of Stella to all the blooms that you see here! Thanks for looking!
