  • Stampin' Up! Country Flowers Stamp Set and Dies from upcoming Annual Catalog
  • New In Colors Announced - coming 1 May in the new Annual Catalog
  • Last Chance List Released with up to 60% savings on retiring items

I'm finally home from Stampin' Up! On Stage event, and I have so much to share.  You'll want to watch this space over the next few days to catch it all. 

Today, I want to share a couple of cards made with a new stamp set and coordinating dies called Country Flowers.  This new bundle will become available to Demonstrators as part of your 2 April Preorder from the upcoming Annual catalog, and Customers can begin ordering this set 1 May with the release of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

The lovely images in the Country Flowers Stamp Set can be paired with other images in the set, used as stand alone images or they can be used to create backgrounds for your greeting cards.    These two samples demonstrate the versatility of this set.  Using both light and dark color palettes, the images work equally well.  Weather celebrating friendship or sending a heartfelt thought, the Country Flowers Stamp Set can be tailored to suit your needs.  Add this set to your Shopping list from the upcoming new Annual Catalog.

The delightful card below begins with a Pecan Pie Cardstock basecard.  Then another layer of Pecan Pie is stamped with one of the images from the Country Flowers Stamp Set using Pecan Pie ink. Then, two pieces of Lemon Lime Twist cut to 1-7/8" X 3-1/2" were also stamped with the same floral image from Country Flowers in Pecan Pie Ink.  The circle die cut from Stylish Shapes Dies was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink with the floral and teapot image from the Country Flowers Stamp Set.  Lemon Lime Blends were used to color the floral image, and the Tea Pot was colored with Wild Wheat AND Peach Pie Ink for an artisan flair using ink pads and Water Painters.  A sentiment from the Country Flowers Stamp set was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto a Basic White sentiment die cut, and a bow of Black Twine from the Baker's Twin Essentials Pack was added as an accent.  A small Peach Pie gem was added from the 22024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems Pack

Discover the magic of color using the new--well, its really a returning favorite color-- Pretty in Pink.  This returning color is one of the 5 new In Colors that Stampin' Up! adds with each new Annual Catalog to keep Stampin' Up! colors up to date. You can see all the new colors below.   The Country Flowers card below begins with a Pretty In Pink Cardstock Basecard.  Then, another layer of Pretty In Pink cut to 3-1/4" X 4-1/2".  Next, add a layer of Vellum Cardstock cut to 3" X 4-1/4" and die cut using the Dots & Spots Dies.  The Basic White circle is die cut from the Stylish Shapes Dies, and then a Basic White sentiment layer die cut using the retired Stitched Rectangle Dies. 

I stamped one of the florals from the Country Flowers Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, and colored it with Pretty in Pink and Lemon Lime Twist ink pads using a Water Painter.  I used a Blending Bush to color a Paper Butterfly Accent with Pretty In Pink Ink, and added it using a small dab of Multipurpose Glue.  Then I added a Iridescent White 1/2" Ribbon and a Pretty In Pink Gem from the 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems pack as accents.
