#tgifc270 Theme Challenge – Summer Vibes
TGIF! It’s Time for a THEME CHALLENGE!
Welcome to another TGIF Challenge, this week it’s time for SUMMER VIBES! When I saw the graphics on the challenge, I knew immediately what new bundle I was going to share with you. NOTHING’S BETTER THAN! One of my TOP BUNDLE PICKS from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog! It brings a smile to my face and I hope it does the same for you!
Begin by using a Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer to cut a piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score and fold at 4 1/4. This is your card base.
Color a 4 3/4 x 3 1/2 piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock with the following Stampin’ Blends Markers to create the ombré effect: Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, and Flirty Flamingo.
Adhere to a 4 7/8 x 3 5/8 piece of Basic Black Cardstock with Stampin’ Seal Adhesive.
Adhere to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Crop a piece of Whisper White Cardstock and a piece of Basic Black Cardstock with the 4 3/8 x 2 3/8 Stitched Nested Label Die and a die-cutting and embossing machine.
Use a Paper Trimmer to trim the outside of the negative space created on the Basic Black Cardstock.
Use a Stamparatus to position and stamp the sentiments in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink as shown onto the Whisper White die-cut.
Adhere the two pieces together and to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp two cocktail glasses in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Whisper White Thick Cardstock. Color with the following Stampin’ Blends Markers: Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, and Flirty Flamingo. Crop with the coordinating die. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use a die-cutting and embossing machine to crop the “cocktails” die-cut from Whisper White Thick Cardstock. Color with the following Stampin’ Blends Markers: Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, and Flirty Flamingo.
Use a pencil to trace the outside of the metal die onto Basic Black Cardstock. Use Paper Snips to snip along the pencil lines.
Adhere together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Add Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins as shown for the final touch.
Adulting is hard! Especially during these tough times. Be sure to take some time for yourself, enjoy the things you love, and smile! Life will get better, it may never be the same, but we will see sunshine! Hopefully soon!

Stampin’ Up! 2020 Artisan Design Team Blog Hop: Flowers for Every Season Suite
Welcome to the June 2020 Artisan Blog Hop!
The Stampin’ Up! 2020 Artisan Design Team has so many amazing creations for you to see! I hope that you take the time to check out all 16 blogs! This blog hop will feature the Flowers for Every Season Suite Collection!
WARNING: GORGEOUSNESS AHEAD!
I am so humbled to be a part of this amazingly talented team of artists! Every month the projects WOW me and I hope that they WOW you too!
The Celebrate Sunflower Bundle…. all I can say is WOW! The detailed lines the artist added to these stamps makes it easy to color with any medium. I used Stampin’ Blends on my projects for today. All three creations used the same products, which are listed at the end of my post.
The mixed font sentiments are fabulous and pair perfectly with the Jar of Flowers Bundle!
I incorporated the stitched scalloped edge die from the Stitched Be Mine Dies as well as the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder to give my projects a rustic feel. I used a Bone Folder to distress the edges for an added touch.
Don’t forget the Flowers for Every Season Gems! The clear gems are perfect for creating a water droplet look.
Flower stamps and floral patterned paper are some of the most versatile craft products. They’re great for all-occasion handmade cards and projects. The Flowers for Every Season Suite Collection features graceful flowers representing each of the four seasons, making it an excellent choice for all-year projects. You’ll get a whole collection of coordinating products, including clear stamps and rubber stamps, beautiful floral paper, craft jewels, craft ribbon, and more! This suite collection is also available in French.

I elongated this creation to accommodate the Jar of Flowers image. I wanted the jar to be a little cleaner so I masked the lines with washi tape prior to stamping it onto the Shimmery White Cardstock.
I stamped the bunch of flowers twice so that I could color and snip a sunflower to pop up on dimensionals to give it more depth.
I love using various punches to add notches for my Linen Thread to sit snuggly on the card.
My third creation, shown below, implements both bundles into one card. The intricate sunflower die cuts were cropped twice, once with Basic Black and once with Crumb Cake. I adhered them together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (I didn’t have the fabulous Adhesive Sheets yet). I constructed the layout that I wanted, then snipped them to size to fit on the corners and edges.
All sentiments were stamped in Versamark Ink onto Crumb Cake Cardstock, then heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
- I love using Paper Snips to closely cut out my sentiments, I think that just makes them pop a little more!
