Recently I had an opportunity to use the “Eyelet Blooms” Die again to create a beautiful wedding card. The “Eyelet Blooms” Die was a recent “Product of the Month” item, I believe for either March or April. I decided to post this card so that customers would be aware that the “Product of the Month” items are only available while quantities last. I am sad to report that this item is no longer available. Super glad I snagged this cute detailed die before it disappeared! HERE was my previous card using this great die!
I chose a more neutral color palette of Crumb Cake, Basic White and Basic Beige for this card. After die cutting the “Eyelet Blooms” Die I layered it on to a piece of Crumb Cake card stock. The flowers and leaves are from the retired stamp set, “Happiness Abounds”. I chose to stamp the leaves on Basic Beige with second generation stamping in Crumb Cake. Adding “Wink of Stella” Glitter Pen to both the flower and leaf images gives them such a beautiful soft shimmer.
I find it challenging to create a card without adding a touch of ribbon or twine. So, I elected to wrap a single strand of “Linen Thread” corner to corner and tied it off in a bow. I did raise the top flower up with “Dimensionals. My greeting stamped in Crumb Cake, came from another retired set, “Peaceful Moments“, one of my all time favorite greeting sets! I absolutely love how beautiful this card looks IRL!
Lastly, just a friendly reminder to check out the Stampin’ Up! website the beginning of each month. In general, the “Last Chance” Products List gets updated regularly. Everyone loves to stretch their crafting budget, so don’t miss out on some of the great deals on these retiring products! Lastly, TODAY, June 13th, is the last day for FREE Shipping on orders of $75 or more!
One of my new favorite items, “Phrases & Frames” Bundle Meets “Bloom Boutique” DSP! This new pack of Designer Series Paper is a beautiful collection of “Specialty” papers that feature the NEW 2026-2028 “In Colors”. The “Specialty” factor means that this pack of Designer Series Paper has beautiful gold accents on the prints. I created this card sample for my New Catalog Open House earlier in May. HERE is my previous post with this great bundle.
For this card, I actually chose to use the “B” side of two prints from the “Bloom Boutique” DSP. Basically, this means I used the sides with more neutral prints, not the feature side with the gold accents. My color palette was Basic White and the NEW Hydrangea Hue“In Color“. Using Basic White adds a nice crispness to this card. I managed to use two of the different “frames” from the “Frames & Phrases” Bundle. I ran both die cut frames through the “Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine” a second pass with the new “Impressions Plate” for added embossed texture on the die cuts. The added depth on the die cut frames definitely gives them more detail and makes them “pop”.
My greeting is from the “Scalloped Wishes” stamp set and stamped in Hydrangea Hue. I added a few of the 2026-2028 “In Color Dots” to the greeting panel. Next, I added a white striped ribbon bow from my stash of ribbons with a “Mini Glue Dot”. This was a super simple card with a few layers of DSP and two of the die cut frames from the bundle. Honestly, I am loving the new Hydrangea Hue“In Color”. This is such a pretty shade of blue with a soft hint of purple.
Recently I had posted a card sample with the “Exciting Times” Bundle. In my previous post HERE, I was able to incorporate all five of the NEW “In Colors” in my card. My next card with this “Exciting Times” Bundle, I chose a vertical orientation and used two of the NEW “In Colors”. One thing I realized is that these NEW “In Colors” play very well with each other along with our core color collection.
For my card sample, I chose Barely Blush, Crisp Cantaloupe and Basic White for my color palette. A few layers and a strip of “Bloom Boutique” Designer Series Paper for the foundation of my card. Then, I stamped the frame from the “Exciting Times” Bundle with Crisp Cantaloupe on a piece of Barely Blush card stock. Next, I punched out the center rectangle with the coordinating punch. I stamped the radiating lines image in Barely Blush on a piece of Basic White card stock. I stamped this twice, as it is a very light color. The greeting was stamped in Crisp Cantaloupe and these two pieces were layered together with double “Mini Glue Dots”. For the top of this “tag”, I used two punches to create the shape for the top.
To complete my card, I added a few light colored sequins from my stash. Lastly, I added a piece of the “NEW 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon” in Barely Blush and tied it off with a piece of “White Baker’s Twine”. I added the greeting panel to my card front with some “Dimensionals”. I love the soft colors used for this super easy and cute card!
