Flourishing Phrases card using Berry Burst from Stampin' Up!

  • Card using Berry Burst accents
  • Earn Extra Stampin' Rewards between June 1-30

Flourishing Phrases Card


I'm sure you're wondering, "where have I seen this before?"  This card is a remake of a card I made last June with Floral Boutique Design Designer Series Papers in Night of Navy.  This was an extremely popular set of Designer Series Paper in last year's annual catalog.  So much so that Stampin' Up! brought back several of the designs this year in the Fresh Florals Designer Series paper stack.  Only, unlike last year when only one color -- Night of Navy--was offered.  This year, these papers are available in all of the new In Colors!
  
This acard also uses Berry Burst Fresh Floral Designer Series Papers


I loved these papers last year, so I decided to remake the series of cards from last year in the new Berry Burst Fresh Floral Designer Series Papers. I displayed the first remake in my blog post Wednesday this week.    Today's card uses the Flourishing Phrases stamp set for images and phrases.  

  
The May Flowers Framelit was used to create the die cut framing the fussy cut stamped flower.

The flower was stamped directly on to the envelope as an accent.  The flower on the card was fussy cut and matted on top of a die cut from the May Flowers Framelit giving the flower more fullness and interest.  The Hello sentiment is from the Flourishing Phrases set, and the set includes a number of wonderful sentiments.



The sentiment is stamped on one of the oval Stitched Shapes Thinlits and then layers over a Berry Burst scalloped oval from the Layering Ovals Thinlit dies. 

Recipe for card:


Stamps: Flourishing Phrases
Ink:  Berry Burst
Paper: Thick Whisper White, Berry Burst, Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack 
Accessories:  May Flowers Framelit, Stitched Shapes Framelit, Layering Ovals Framelit, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Die Brush, Precision Plate, Big Shot Platform

  • Earn extra Stampin' Rewards between June 1-30
  • See a few of my top picks from the new catalog

New catalog now available


I'm so excited that we can finally begin ordering from the full catalog Stampin' Up! released today.  As a demonstrator we've been able to preorder a small selection or items from the new catalog.  Today, with the launch of the new catalog, we can order all the items from the new catalog.  
Here's the link to download a free .pdf of the new catalog.  My customers who have purchased within the past year have already received their hard copies of the catalog.  If you currently live in the USA and don't have a demonstrator, I would love to earn your business. If you need a copy of the catalog, contact me.

Or, to add a hard copy catalog to your next order, the new catalog number is 146113 and costs US $5.00.

 My list of favorites just keeps growing and growing.  Like many of you...I want it ALL.  I took advantage of the current Stampin' Rewards  promotions (read more below) and split my order into two orders to take advantage of the current special.  I earned an extra $70 in free stampin' merchandise over and above the normal stampin' rewards for the two orders I placed today.  

All orders over $150 qualify for stampin' rewards (free merchandise you can add to your order.)  During June 1-30, Stampin' Up! will give you an extra $35 in extra stampin' rewards when your order totals over $350!  Its all automated in the ordering system when you place your order.  After you enter your order, push "continue" and the ordering system will prompt you to order your free merchandise from any items in the catalog.



This is the time of the year when you're likely to place a large order, so these rewards are greatly appreciated.  To increase your order size to get the extra stampin' rewards, show your new catalog and some of the cards you've made to your crafty friends.  Invite them to place a joint order and share the rewards. Then share the videos in today's and yesterday's post with tips on using these new products.

You can also use your rewards to pay for a New Demonstrator kit and become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  Instead of ordering free merchandise while placing your order, you can check a box to get a coupon code to use your Stampin' Rewards to reduce the cost of your Demonstrator Starter Kit.  Once your have your coupon code, complete your initial order.  Then navigate to my "Join the Fun" page, and use your coupon code for a discount on your $99 new demonstrator kit.  You'll pick out $125 in merchandise from the new catalog for your starter kit for your $99 investment, your kit ships free, and you'll enjoy 20 to 25% discounts on your future Stampin' Up! orders.  See, you really CAN have it all!  (Well,... almost.. . kinda. . .)

A few of my favorites


With the launch of the new catalog, I wanted to share a few of my favorites with you.

1.  You Move Me Bundle.  If you love interactive cards and projects, you'll love this new bundle.  Take a peek at this video to see what fun cards you can create with this new set.  See it on page 170 of the new catalog.






2.  Floral Statements.  If you like to water color or use watercolor pencils, you'll love using Floral Statements to make these cards.  See it on page 163 of the new catalog.

3.  Coffee Break Suite.  Yesterday I posted the Coffee Cafe Bundle video, which I posted again today for your convenience.  You'll want to take a closer look at the coordinating papers and accessories that go along with this cute stamp set and die bundle.   See them on page 31 of the new catalog.









4.  This little Piggy.  You are going to fall in love with the Hogs & Kisses from these little Piggies.  I can't wait for this set to arrive so I can start sending out cheerful cards with these cute sentiments.  See them on page 48 of the new catalog.  The sentiments are attached to each image for faster stamping, so if you want to use another sentiment, simply mask the sentiment with a sticky note before you stamp and then stamp the sentiment of your choice.






There are plenty more videos introducing you to products in the Stampin' Up! catalog, so be sure to Subscribe to the Stampin' Up! YouTube channel while visiting these videos.  

With the Launch of the new catalog, ordering is heavy and some popular items may become unavailable.  One such item is the Daisy Punch.  Stampin' Up! has already gone through its initial order, and a second and third orders have been placed with the vendor.  It will be back in stock on June 26.

Don't take a risk that your items will be delayed due to popular demand.  Place your orders from the new catalog today.

Watch new Stampin' Up! product videos for products launching tomorrow, June 1

  • Floral card in new In Color, Berry Burst
  • Exciting new product videos

Berry Burst card and lots of new videos


I realized that some of the patterns in the new Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack are similar to the Night of Navy Floral Bouquet Designer Series Paper Pack that is retiring today.  I decided to redo one of the cards I originally made using the new Berry Burst designs in the new florals.   






This card uses the Flourishing Phrases to stamp the flower images.  The sentiment is from the Rose Wonder set, which also included the boarder for the sentiment.  This was a fast, simple card to make, yet I think it packed a visual punch.   
Using the new Berry Burst Fresh Florals papers and the Fourishing Phrases stamp set
    
Both the Designer Series Paper ad the stamped Whisper White flower blocks are matted in Berry Burst cardstock.  I'm so glad that the Flourishing Phrases stamp set will carry over to the new catalog.  It was one of my first purchases from last year's annual catalog.  If you don't have it, buy it today with the coordinating Flourish die set and save 10%.  Order the bundle in wood-mount (142322) or clear mount (142323) before 11 pm tonight.  Tomorrow, the individual items can still be purchased, but the special bundle pricing is no longer offered.  
This Floral Print comes in all 5 of the new In Colors.


     




Recipe:

Stamp:  Flourishing Phases, Rose Wonder
Ink:  Berry Burst
Paper:   Whisper White, Berry Burst, Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Pack. 
Accessories:    Rose Garden Thinlits, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Precision Plate, Big Shot Platform, Standard Die Cutting Plates,Stampin' Scrub, Stampin' Mist, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Dimensionals
