Finally able to make another post with the “Around the Bend” Bundle. You can see my previous card sample, HERE. I have been super busy preparing for my NEW Catalog Open House & SALE. Plus, my Demonstrator “Pre-Order” just arrived this week and I’m excited to start creating with new colors and products!
This “bundle” did roll in to the NEW Catalog, but the 10% bundled savings is no longer available. Stampin’ Up! only offers the 10% “bundled” savings when a product makes it’s initial debut in a catalog. If if rolls in to the next catalog, the 10% “bundled” savings disappears.
This bundle has some great dies such as border edges, flowers and leaves to create with. I chose Soft Seafoam, Basic White, Orchid Oasis and Old Olive for my color palette. I designed this card several weeks back and it was a project with my Maryland eastern shore group in early April. True confession, I used Mango Melody for the flower centers, which sadly, is now retired.
After die cutting the flower center, I texturized it by running through a retired embossing folder. Next, I added “Wink of Stella” Glitter Brush for a subtle shimmer. I tied a strand of “1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon” along the top edge and then frayed the ends. To finish the card, a few small “Pearls” were added to the smaller flower centers. A simple card utilizing several of the “Around the Bend” Dies.
