Here we are — already beginning a fresh week of the new year. I was able to enjoy a little down time last week with a more relaxed work schedule, and I always find it funny how quickly that time passes by. I’m back in the office this week and the kiddo is back to school.
This week, the new Stampin’ Up! January Mini catalog will launch, and we’re continuing to get a closer look at some of the fabulous products that will be available. In particular, this week we are going to be focusing on the Mixed Media Florals suite of products. And today, we’re pairing up the stamps & dies with the lovely new Floral Delight designer series paper.
We get started today with a base of Lemon Lolly cardstock. I chose a smaller floral pattern from the Floral Delight paper pack as the backdrop for our focal panel. The focal panel base is a circle of blue gingham vellum from the coordinating Floral & Gingham vellum pack that I cut with the Spotlight on Nature dies. The floral bunch is stamped on white cardstock with the Mixed Florals stamp and then colored with Stampin’ Blends before being diecut with the coordinating die from the Mixed Florals dies. The sentiment mat is a lovely banner cut from Crushed Curry cardstock using the Mixed Labels die, which really helps our white sentiment panel pop. The sentiment from Mixed Labels is stamped in Lost Lagoon and then cut using the coordinating small banner die from Mixed Labels. Some Lost Lagoon soft cording and Daffodil Delight narrow satin ribbon tie our color palette together. A few riverside irregular pearls guide the eye across our card design.
I hope you’ll join me tomorrow where we’ll look at a few of the other stamps and dies in this terrific product suite!
