I chose to work with both the “Pretty Florals” Bundle and the “More Messages” Bundle when I created samples for my recent Open House. I inked the large “More Messages” stamp with Secret Sea and then die cut out ALL of the greetings at once with the coordinating die! What was so fabulous is that I then had numerous greetings to choose from for my cards. You can find the “More Messages” Bundle in the Online Exclusives. HERE is the previous card I made with the same bundles.
As you can see, this card was actually fairly easy to create. From the NEW “In Colors”, I chose Timid Tiger and Secret Sea along with Basic White. I die cut a white panel with the “Textured Notes Dies”. Next, I added a small piece of NEW “In Color DSP” on the lower half of my white panel. This set of dies has quickly become one of my new favorites!
I stamped the leaves in Lemon Lime Twist and the floral images with Timid Tiger. First, the solid layer image was stamped off once and the outline/filler was stamped full strength. The flowers were die cut with the coordinating dies and popped up with “Dimensionals“.
For the finishing touches, I added a narrow strip of Secret Sea just above the DSP along with a Secret Sea layer under the white panel. In addition, a double strand Twine bow in Navy was added with a “Mini Glue Dot“. As a result, this card came together quickly and was a really easy card to create!
Here’s another card using the “New In Colors” and the “Pretty Florals” Bundle. I really had fun working with the “New In Colors” and the “Pretty Florals” Bundle. For this card I chose Cloud Cover and Secret Sea along with Basic White. A simple layout made this card easy to create!
I used the same products as my previous card HERE. I also managed to incorporate a piece of the NEW “In Color” DSP. These prints are are super cute and I absolutely love the patterns in this DSP pack! Just like my previous cards, I also used a greeting from the “More Messages” Stamp/Die Bundle.
For some extra interest, I used Secret Sea as my accent color. Before assembling the die cut flowers, I added a bit of Balmy Blue ink towards the base of the flowers with a “Blending Brush”. I chose Balmy Blue since the Cloud Cover ink pad is not available and honestly, it blended wonderfully! The flower stems were die cut from Granny Apple Green card stock and the flowers are mounted on a “Stitched Shapes” Circle. I added two additional circle layers to my focal point before attaching it to my card front. The greeting was placed up on “Dimensionals” with a small strip of Secret Sea underneath. I think my two favorite New “In Colors” are Secret Sea and Strawberry Slush. Although, Timid Tiger does come in a close third!
Continuing to use the “Pretty Florals” Bundle and NEW “In Colors”, I chose Strawberry Slush and Secret Sea for this card. I also managed to incorporate the “More Messages” Bundle with the greeting stamped in Secret Sea, like I did HERE on a previous creation. I really like that Secret Sea is a nice neutral and a much softer version than using Basic Black. Also loving the return of Strawberry Slush!
For this particular card, I also chose a print from the NEW “In Colors” DSP as my main background. Then, I die cut two different sizes of the “Everyday Arches” Dies to layer together. The floral image was stamped on the smaller white arch and then an additional stamped stem and floral bunch was placed on top to add volume and a bit of depth.
To complete this card, I added a die cut sentiment from the “More Messages” Bundle with a strip of Secret Sea card stock layered underneath. For the final touch, I added a double twine bow in Navy with a “Mini Glue Dot”. One detail that is difficult to capture in a photo is the addition of “Wink of Stella” to the flower centers for a subtle shimmer. I truly enjoyed working with the “Pretty Florals” Bundle and NEW “In Colors”! Actually, this is a super cute and very simple card!
