Welcome Crafting Friends! The theme for this month's hop is All About the Flowers. If you are following the hop, you may have come from Teri's blog. Weren't her projects awesome? You will find a list of all the bloggers at the bottom of my post. I am excited about this month's theme! I love flowers and flower gardening, and even though I have several flower stamp sets, I am always looking for more! Because I am a demonstrator, I am able to see the catalog early and preorder from the new Stampin' Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. The products in the new catalog are available for purchase on May 3. Wisteria don't thrive in western Montana due to our cold winters, but I have seen them growing in the Seattle area--so beautiful! When I saw the Wisteria Wishes stamp set in the new catalog, it went to the top of my wish list. It comes with a die set in a "bundle." I used the Wisteria Wishes bundle to make a card for a friend. The two large flowers were made with two sizes of dies from the set. The smaller flowers were stamped first with Fresh Freesia and then stamped over with Highland Heather. Wisteria Wishes available May 3. These dies cut stamped images from the die set. These are some of the dies in the set that don't have coordinating stamps. I used Fresh Freesia card stock for the larger flower piece and Highland Heather card stock for the smaller piece and then layered them. I love the leaf die in the set. It cut and embossed these beautiful leaves. Can you see the trellis just barely visible in the back? It's made with another die from the set. I try to find stamps I can use in multiple ways. I am already thinking about Christmas cards (yes, really!) Turn the stamp upside down and it becomes pine trees! Trees are stamped and then cut. Two die cuts to make a tree! My 3-D project is a slim pleated gift bag to hold a prayer journal I am giving to my friend. I used a 12 x 12" piece of two-sided pretty paper for my bag. The contrasting border along the top was made by folding over an inch. I used a die from the Color and Contour die set to make the white focal background piece. I stamped the leaves and flowers and used my die cutting machine to cut them. Back of bag Close up of the side pleat Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will continue on to Barb's blog.

Wisterias hold a special place in my heart. I 'inherited' a wisteria when we moved into this house 24 years ago. It's one of the only remaining original plants in my garden, I've planted almost everything else in the garden since then. But the wisteria is gorgeous, and FUN FACT, it blooms every year for our son's birthday in late March!! When I saw the Wisteria Wishes bundle in the new Stampin' UP! catalog, I knew right away it would be on my first order AND I knew exactly what I was going to do.... die cut the flowers

*This blogpost is in Dutch and English!* Hallo, en welkom bij de Kre8tors Bloghop! Hello and welcome, to the Kre8tors bloghop! Deze maand laten we graag projecten zien met items uit de prachtige nieuwe jaarcatalogus! This month will show you projects made with products from our beautiful new Annual Catalog! Daarom koos ik een van mijn favoriete nieuwe stempelsets met stansen uit, en combineerde ik wat nieuwe In Colour kleuren met oude bekenden! That is why I have chosen a favourite bundle, and mixed some new colours with some older ones! En ik was natuurlijk geinspireerd door al die prachtige blauwe regen-planten die hier in de omgeving nu zo overvloeding in bloei staan! And ofcourse I was inspired by all the gorgeous Wisteria plants that are flourishing so abundantly in our garden, right at this moment! De prachtige nieuwe set die ik ervoor gebruikte is Wisteria Wishes, samen met de bijpassende Wisteria Dies! Samen zijn ze te bestellen als voordeelpakket. The beautiful new set I used is Wisteria Wishes, together with the matching Wisteria Dies. Together they can be ordered as a bundle, which gives a 10 percent discount. Deze keer besloot ik de focus op de prachtige stansen te leggen, en deze te combineren met watercolour! Lekker kliederen met inkt en water dus! This time I decided to focus on the beautiful Dies and to use them with watercolour! That means having a lot of messy fun with ink and water! Ik stanste diverse bloemen en bladeren uit Fluid 100 Watercolourpapier, en kleurde ze in met inkt en een Water Painter. I diecut several flowers and branches from Fluid 100 watercolourpaper, and started colouring them with ink and a Water Painter. Om mooie diepte en kleurschakeringen te krijgen koos ik meerdere kleuren inkt. Voor de bladeren koos ik de nieuwe In Color Parakeet Party en combineerde die met Garden Green en Mossy Meadow. Voor de bloemen koos ik de nieuwe In Color Orchid Oasis en combineerde die met Fresh Freesia, en Gorgeous Grape. To create depth and to get different colourshades I chose several inks. For the leaves I used the new In Color Parakeet Party together with Garden Green and Mossy Meadow. For the flowers I chose the new In Color Orchid Oasis, together with Fresh Freesia and Gorgeous Grape. Aangezien de bloemen uit twee laagjes bestaan kun je de laagjes lekker "opfluffen"voor je ze op elkaar doet, zodat je een lekker vol, weelderig effect krijgt. Since the flowers have two layers you can "fluff them up" before adhering them on top of eachother, and this gives a nice full, bushy effect. Aangezien ik een lekker rustieke kaart wilde maken, en echt het overvloedige gevoel van deze prachtige plant uit wilde laten komen, maakte ik een bijpassende achtergrond. Natuurlijk gebruikte ik hier weer de zelfde kleuren inkt voor. Since I wanted to make a rustic, voluptious card, to mimic the abundant look of these gorgeous plants, I made a matching background. Ofcourse I used the same Ink Colours for this! Het is heerlijk als je echt het "gevoel" van de Wisteria kunt vatten! I love it when I can catch the "feeling"of a plant! Ik voegde wat spettertjes toe met een Stampin'Wirte Marker in Orchid Oasis, en natuurlijk een passende tekst. Deze heat emboste ik in wit op een stukje Gorgeous Grape cardstock waar ik met de Banner Pick a Punch een mooi labeltje van maakte. I added some splattering with a Stampin'Write Marker in Orchid Oasis, and ofcourse a fitting text! I heatmebossed the words on some Gorgeous Grape Cardstock and used the Banner Pick a Punch to turn into a nice label. Het ziet er misschien ingewikkeld uit, maar dat is het echt niet! Het is natuurlijk wel essentieel om de juiste materialen tot je beschikking te hebben. Er gaat waarschijnlijk wel een themaworkshop met deze prachtige set komen, als daar voldoende belangstelling voor is! It may look complicated to make, but it really isn't! But ofcourse it essential to use the right products. I am planning on doing a theme workshop with this set to teach you all the tips and tricks! Wistera Wishes, wat een HEERLIJKE set is dit toch!
