Elegant Texture Meets Botanical Beauty: A Card Featuring Stampin’ Up! Extraordinary Flora

-

 Hi Crafting Friend,

Looking for a card design that blends rustic charm with botanical elegance? Check out this stunning project created using Stampin’ Up!'s Extraordinary Flora washi tape, stamps, and dies, and I couldn’t be happier with the result!

The background sets the tone: I ran Old Olive cardstock through the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder, adding realistic depth and texture. The distressed, natural look of the brick is a perfect contrast to the intricate details of the floral elements.

To bring in warmth and brightness, I layered the design onto Darling Duckling card base, which adds a vibrant pop without overpowering the botanical theme. The focal point? A wreath of florals constructed from individual elements die-cut from Extraordinary Flora washi tape adhered to Basic White cardstock. The sentiment is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink—rich, earthy, and perfectly tied into the green palette.

Whether you're sending this card to celebrate a special occasion, say thank you, or simply brighten someone’s day, it’s a design that’s easy to recreate but sure to impress.🌿

Thanks for stopping by MissQsCraftingContinuum, Live Long & Craft On! - Susan 🌄🖖

Hi Crafting Friend, The Perennial Lavender DSP was still on my desk along with the Heartfelt Hexagon stamps and punch so, that's what I started with. Instead of waiting until I need one, I decided to make a Sympathy card with them. I really like the way it looks. What do you think?       Card Front                                                                 Inside/Insert Here's how to duplicate it: CARD BASE Crumb Cake cardstock cut to 8 1/2" X 5 1/2"  Score, Fold and Burnish at 4 1/4" on the long side. INSERT Very Vanilla cardstock 4 1/2" X 4" edged with Pecan Pie ink and a 3/4" X 4" strip of Perennial Lavender DSP edged with Pecan Pie ink adhered next to it on the left side.

Hello Hills of Tuscany Fun Fold Card

 Hi Crafting Friend, Welcome to 2024, the new Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. This Spring Mini catalog is always my favorite, especially when you add the benefits of Sale-A-Bration to it. There are so many adorable stamp sets, dies, DSPs and other goodies! Do you like this catalog as much as I do?  Today's card uses the Hills of Tuscany stamp set. The images were stamped directly onto the DSP, (house - white craft ink, roof - Cherry Cobbler, trees and sentiment - Shaded Spruce) the house was then heat embossed with white embossing powder. The card base is Shaded Spruce cut to 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 and scored on the long side at 2 3/4 and 4 1/4. Fold it in half and then fold the card front back as shown in the photos below.  The Gorgeous Grape layers are 1 7/8 X 5 1/4 for the front and inside left; and 4 X 5 1/4 for the right side.  Cut a 1 inch strip off the top of the DSP to use on another project, then cut 2 pieces, each 1 3/4 wide from the left side (the tre...

Bloom Impressions Spring Quilt For You Card

 Hi Crafting Friends, Here we are in 2025. The weather has been cold, but not too cold, which I greatly appreciate. I woke up to hazy skies this morning and my mind went immediately to the fires over in California. My heart goes out to all those that have had to flee and leave their belongings behind to be consumed by the raging flames. If you or anyone you know are near those areas, I hope you are all safe! How about a little bit of distraction? I have been seeing a lot of "quilt" cards lately, so I made one too. We'll get to the card in a minute. First, I need to tell you that the new Mini Catalog, the Sale-A-Bration Brochure and the new Scrapbooking Brochure are all out. The stamp set, DSP and embossing folder used to make this card can all be found in the Mini Catalog or the SAB Brochure. Everything in the SAB Brochure is available free with either a $60 or $120 order. (before tax and shipping) There are a lot of great products in all of them! If you don't have th...
