Flirty Flamingo Flowers with Stampin' Up! Flowing Flowers Stamp Set


  • Stampin' Up! Flowing Flowers Stamp Set
  • Last Chance Products Up to 50% off
  • Final days to order New Beginnings Paper Pumpkin Kit
Before I put the Flowing Flowers Stamp set away, I decided to make another card as well as use up more of the free Designer Series Paper I earned during Sale-A-Bration.   I love the bright colors on this card.  I rarely work with Flirty Flamingo, but this stamp set mutes this shade of Pink and it becomes the perfect compliment to the Granny Apple Green in the Designer Series Paper. Just as I did in my previous post, I stamped each flower twice and cut out the full flower and also the inner portion of the flower.  I layered the two pieces of the flower together to give the flowers more volume on my card front.  I added die cut leaves from the Artistically Inked stamp set and Artistic dies, which coordinate with Artistically Inked Stamp Set.  I add additional greenery using dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies.  I added a sentiment from the Flowing Flowers set embossed in White on Granny Apple Green. I've had this stamp set for a white, and I kicking myself for not using it more.  Now that I've played with it, I'm really impressed with it.

Handmade Birthday Card using Stampin' Up! Flowering Flowers Stamp Set



To create today's card, I used a base card of Thick Basic White Cardstock.  Then I covered it with a print from the Friendly Hello 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper, which was available as a free selection during January-February 2022 Sale-A-bration.  It worked perfectly for today's card.  Then I die cut a scalloped rectangle from Basic White using the Scalloped Contour Dies to use as my image layer.

I stamped the largest flower image from Flowing Flowers four times in Flirty Flamingo ink.  I fussy cut two of the stamped flowers.  Then I cut two of the inner layers of the flower and layered one larger and one smaller layer together, and popped them up Dimensional.    

I also stamped the double leaf from the Artistically Inked Stamp set on Basic White Cardstock using Granny Apple Green ink and die cut it with dies from the Artistic Dies.  I used two different dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies and die cut additional foliage from Soft Sea Foam Cardstock.    I layered the leaves and the foliage under each flower.

I finished the card by creating a sentiment layer of Granny Apply Green Cardstock.  Then I selected the Happy Birthday sentiment from Flowing Flowers and heat embossed it using White Embossing Powder.   While I had my embossing supplies out, I stamped a number of different sentiment on Granny Apple Green to have on hand if I needed them instead of the birthday sentiment.   I added a few a 2021-2023 In Color Jewel to the edge of my sentiment to complete my card.

Last Chance Sale Continues for 2021-2022 Annual Catalog Items 

Less than a month from now, the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog will be released, and Stampin' Up! has released items retiring from the current annual catalog so you can purchase your favorites before they are gone.    Check the Stampin' Up! OnLine Store for the Last Chance Products 2021-2022 Annual Catalog Sale.   Some items at deep discounts;  up to 50% off! 





Retiring List (with discounts) - See which products are on their way out once the Stampin' Up! 2021-2022 Annual Catalog Retires 2 May 2022.  These lists were published March 23 and some items have already sold out.  Used the Shop Retiring Products Online link, below, for all currently available items.

How to get the most from the Retiring Lists

 

Know what's retiring:  I like to mark my current catalog with items I currently own, then I mark items that will retire.  Then I look through the Last Chance List for favorites I still want to order before they retire.  Retiring In Color Ink refills and Retiring In Color Cardstock tend to sell out right away.  Save now on the In Color Blends Markers in Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness and Misty Moonlight, which are on the Retiring Products List

Carry Over Bundles:  Once my catalog is marked with retiring items, I decide if one of my favorite bundles is on the retiring list.  The bundle may retire, but the individual pieces may carry over to the next catalog.  Check the asterix on the Retiring List to identify those bundles that will no longer be sold at the 10% bundle savings.  These bundles will carry over as individual pieces in the new catalog.  While they will carry over, they will no longer be sold at the 10% bundle savings, which is generally reserved for new bundles.   The bundle savings of 10% over the cost of purchasing each piece separately from the new annual catalog makes it worthwhile to purchase now, before the new catalog launches, if its on your Wish List.

Carry Over Products - After you've marked your catalog with retiring products, it is easier to see which products will still be available (will carry over) after the current Annual Catalog Retires.  Since one of the unique points about Stampin' Up! is that our products coordinate between all current catalogs, you'll enjoy pairing what you have with new products becoming available in the 3 May 2022 Annual Catalog.  

Products Sell Out Fast - Once you decide which Last Chance Products you want, order as soon as possible so you don't miss out on these savings.  Availability of retiring products is only while supplies last.  Have a few "back-up" items to your Shopping List in the event an item becomes unavailable while placing your order.
