Sunny Sentiments card set in a box #2

Using a sentiment only stamp set allows you to let the DSP to be the star of the show. 

I created a set using The Sweet Symmetry DSP as part of display for my last class, you can find that post here.

This is the same idea using the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP- it's so easy to use. Here you can see the box lying on its side containing the envelopes and 2 of the cards.


For the thinking of you card I stamped the Sunny sentiments on the inside.
Each sentiment is used once in the set, the only other stamping is on the envelopes. All other plants are fussy cut from the DSP. Minimal supplies, maximum effect.



The Cello bags are the perfect size, it's a snug fit so you don't want any height in your embellishments on the front of the box, Seal the base with some washi tape and use mini glue dots to hold the top corner "ears" folded down onto the side of the pack- just like wrapping a present. And this is the perfect gift all ready to go!

The box is from fellow demo Elizabeth Shannon.  I purchased her tutorial.You can find instructions and video in her tutorial. So in fairness I am unable to share the instructions but the measurements are as follows

New In colour 2025-2027 cards and the FABULOUS Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape.

Don't you love it when a single product creates enough elements to decorate a bunch of cards at one time? The Extraordinary Flora Washi tape is one of those products. I created these for my upcoming Catalogue Launch. I put the Washi onto Basic Beige to cut these flowers and love how it coordinates with the Basic Beige card base. To create these cards I trimmed 2.5cm from the front edge and adhered a 3.5cm strip of DSP to the inside of the card to give an added layer. These were easy to put together. Darling Duckling Secret Sea Strawberry Slush Timid Tiger Cloud Clover June 3 - 30 Stampin Up has an amazing offer where you can get 50% off any second product from a suite. So for example if you were to purchase the Extraordinary Flora Die you would be able to buy the tape at 50% off. Please reach out if you want more information on this great deal. You can see all the available suites in my online store. I am loving all the new colours.  I hope you have a creative week and remember,...

Colour INKspiration#178 Happy Hibiscus

Happy Hibiscus is a new set in my collection and I needed to get it out and play with it, so this colour combination seemed like a good place to start.  Isn't the Inspiration picture amazing? I wish I was a better gardener and could grow these gorgeous treasures. But since that is not my skill I am happy to admire nature. Picture credit - https://leahhopephotography.client-gallery.com/.../print... I used the watercolour 100 paper and created two pieces of colour, one a range of dark and light Calypso Coral, and one a mix of Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive.  Once dry I was able to cut out the leaves and tiny flowers. I stamped the 3 large flowers over the watercolour and cut them out using the Hybrid Embossing Folder - It's so easy and super effective as it embosses and cuts in one pass creating some amazing depth for the blossoms. I love the leaf shapes and definition in these dies, just gorgeous. Lots of white seemed like a good way to let the colours shine, so a simple embosse...
