Hello and thanks for stopping in to browse. Have you seen in person the new Stampin’ Up! Birthday Blooms Stamp Set and Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper (DSP)? If not, the stamp set is gorgeous and the DSP contains some beautiful designs. Before I show you my greeting card that I made with these two products, let me show you the products first.
This is the gorgeous stamp set:
I am anxious to create a card using the gorgeous large flower stamp! Here is a photo of the Birthday Bouquet DSP:
Here is my card, which I made for a Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge:
This is the Splitcoaststampers sketch for SC574 that I followed.
To make the card, I used the SU 2-1/2″ circle punch to cut out a Whisper White circle on which I stamped the small flower from the Stampin’ Up! Birthday Blooms Stamp Set. I used copic markers to color the flower as close to Mint Macaron as possible. I attached the colored flower to a circular mat made with Blushing Bride Card Stock. I cut out the mat with a Spellbinders Splendid Circles Die, and then modified it to remove the outer layer.
Here’s a closeup of the flower:
Next I used I cut the Stampin’ Up! 1-3/8″ Circle Punch to cut a Mint Macaron circle from a design of the Birthday Bouquet DSP. Using a smaller die from the Spellbinders Splendid Circles Dies, I cut a Blushing Bride Card Stock mat upon which the Mint Macaron circle rests. Finally, I added a piece of Blushing Bride Ribbon covered with Crystal Effects.
To assemble the card, I attached a piece of the DSP to an A-2 Blushing Bride card base. To adhere to the Splitcoaststampers sketch, I added a strip of the Stampin’ Up! Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper and an embossed strip of Mint Macaron Card Stock. Finally, the two circle elements were attached in place.
I did not add a sentiment to the card’s front; however, I know it will be a Happy Birthday Greeting Card as you can see from the card’s inside:
Enjoy the card and feel free to leave comments or questions. You never know when I’ll select your comment and ask for your address to send you the card!
God’s Blessings!
