Share What You Love Specialty Paper


Wow!  That's all I can say about today's card.  There's nothing at all subtle about this card.  I started out using the pattern on the reverse side of the Share What You Love Specialty Paper -- a very nice print filled with small flowers -- but once I turned this paper over, I just couldn't help myself.  I love bold, monochromatic colors.  This just happened to use some of my favorite colors. . . Rich Razzleberry and Sweet Sugarplum.  Sweet Sugarplum is one of the retiring In Colors that becomes unavailable May 31.  Looks like I'll be ordering a few extra packs as Sweet Sugarplum is one of my all-time favorite cardstock colors and it's a beautiful complimentary color with the print in the Share What You Love Specialty Paper.  I'm betting this will be one of the colors that returns with the next major color revamp Stampin' Up! does -- five years from now.  But I'm not waiting.  I'm ordering enough of this retiring paper now to hold me over!  Be sure to order your favorites before May 31.




I began with a Sweet Sugarplum basecard.  Then a layer of Rich Razzelberry, then a monochromatic print from the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I stamped the corners of the Sweet Sugarplum basecard with a small flower stamp from the Make A Difference alphabet Stamp set, but so much more.  The Make a Difference Stamp Set is part of the Share What You Love Suit.  It includes 143 photopolymer stamps.  Many of the alphabets letters are double letters.  In addition, it includes numbers and symbols, plus a variety of small sentiments like "from the desk of", "This belongs to", "to" and "from", and the Stampin' Up! copyright, which you'll need if you pan to sell your completed cards and adhere to the Angle Policy of crediting Stampin' Up! with the artwork used on your cards. 
  




I used the Large Letter Framelits to create the letters for "Mom" and then popped up the letters on foam adhesive strips.  Then I used the 1/4" Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon and created a bow in the corner of the image layer.  This ribbon is included in two of the prerelease bundles. 

Here's a close up this stamp set.  You'll find all kinds of uses for this set. 






  

I'm happy that this designer series paper pack includes both florals images as well as both bold patterns and subtle prints, which lets you create different looks from this one paper pack.

Beautiful Florals from the Share What You Love Specialty Papers from Stampin' Up!

  • Love What You Do stamp Set from Stampin' Up!
  • Take a look at the 3 different Share What You Love Bundles available now
  • Also get Free Gifts with these Early Release Bundles
  • Share What You Love Early Release

    Today's card is another using prerelease items from the upcoming catalog.  Its another print from the Share What you Love Specialty Paper paired with Rich Razzelberry and a fussy cut flower from another print from this same paper pack.
    I began with a Rich Razzelberry basecard.  Then a layer of Whisper White, and then one of the prints from the Share What You Love Specialty Paper Pack.  I'm going to be making lots of cards from this paper pack as it is a double paper pack.  That means instead of the normal  12 sheets of double-sided papers in this paper pack, it includes 24 double-sided sheets of heavy weight paper  -- 4 each of these lovely designs.

    These are such gorgeous prints.  While most of the prints are florals, its nice that many of theses papers are graphic designs that stand alone or compliment the floral prints. I stamped the Thank You sentiment from the Love What You Do Stamp set, one of the three stamp sets that is part of this suite, in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the  Whisper White image block.






    I selected another floral print from this Share What You Love Specialty Paper Pack with larger flower than my background print, and fussy cut the flower and stem image and popped it up on dimensionals before adding it to the the image block.    I stamped tiny flowers and leave images from this same stamp set onto the image block and added a few of the new, tiny Share What You Love Artisan Pearls to the image block. This is a simple card to create with this new suite.   Download a flyer here to see details of each bundle, the free gifts in each bundle and the new In Color stamp pads you can purchase today.

    Stamps:  Love What You Do
    Ink:   Tuxedo Black Memento
    Paper:  Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper

For a crafter with limited supplies who is just beginning to experience creativity, the first Share-What-you-Love Bundle is for you.  It includes a pack of free 5" X 3-1/2" Very Vanilla Note Cards & Envelopes, a $6.00 value. 




A stamper looking to hone their skills with a few more items to help  push your creative boundaries without pushing you over the edge, will want the "A Little More, Please" Bundle.  This  bundle includes not only the Love What you Do Stamp set, but a unique alphabet stamp set as well as several embellishments and products from the new catalog plus two free gifts.


  

The third bundle is for those who want to have it all.
