Blossoms and Greenery print created with Sending Smiles Stamp Set

                 

  • Crate your own background paper using Sending Smiles Stamp Set
  • Retiring List for the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog.  Sale begins June 1
  • Kits Collection Buy One Get One 50% Off Sale 1-30 June 2022
I haven't put the Sending Smiles Stamp Set away yet.  I just keep finding ways to use this fun set.  Today, I created a pattern with the blossoms and greenery from the stamps included in this set.  I used Crushed Curry and Smoky Slate as my color palette, and added the sentiment in Basic White onto a Smoky Slate background.   Choose your favorite color combinations and give this simple technique a try!  Explore more ideas for using the the Sending Smiles Bundle  from the Stampin' Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog by visiting pg. 14.    Add it to your Shopping List today! 

Crushed Curry and Smoky Slate floral patterned greeting card using Sending Smiles Stamp Set from Stampin' Up.



Today's card uses a base card of Smoky Slate Cardstock.  Then a print with Crushed Curry and Daffodil Delight from the retired Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper.  But here's a tip:  Almost every catalog has at least one Designer Series Paper Pack with a print that uses Crushed Curry and/or Daffodil Delight.  So I'm sure you'll find a similar print within the 12 X 12 or 6X 6 Designer Series Paper. I'm determined to use up the many packs of open, retired Designer Series Papers I have in my paper stash this year! Then I cut a Basic White layer to use as my image layer.  


Blossoms and stems print created with Crushed Curry and Smoky Slate ink using the Sending Smiles Bundle from Stampin' Up!


I used the Sending Smiles Stamp Set and Crushed Curry with Smoky Slate ink to stamp images across my image layer.  Then, to create the two layers for the word "Sending," I die cut the backing out of Smoky Slate Cardstock using the coordinating Sending Dies.  Then there is another die to die cut the lettering for the word "Sending".  Tip:  I found that backing my Basic White Cardstock with a layer of Adhesive Sheets before die cutting, made it very easy to the apply the word to the backing layer of Smoky Slate.   

Blossoms and stems stamps used to create cards using the Stampin' Up! Sending Smiles Bundle



I die cut another sentiment strip using Smoky Slate and stamped sentiments from the Sending Smiles Stamp Set to complete the Sending phrase.  To finish my card, I added some of the 2021- 2023 In Color Opal Rounds indifferent sizes.  I love that these Opal Rounds colors coordinate with many more ink and Cardstock colors than their original color. 

Below are the tools used to create these cards.
