New Freebies and Timeless Tulips

Happy Tuesday! Did you miss me yesterday? We were busy getting sorted out around work and our new COVID19 normal around here, so I didn't get a chance to post. I hope you'll forgive me. Things certainly have changed an awful lot in a very short time around here. I hope that you are healthy and doing everything you can to stay home and safe.

There is some GOOD NEWS today...new Sale-a-bration freebies were just announced! There is only one week left in Sale-a-bration and Stampin' Up! has released several items from the Annual Catalogue to be earned as Sale-a-bration freebies! Check out the graphic below:

That Butterfly Duet Punch is an AWESOME one that I use a ton...if you don't already have one you will definitely want to take advantage of this offer! I'm also super excited to see one of my favourite Designer Series Papers included...Woven Threads! I'll definitely be scooping some of that up too!

Now, on to this week's featured product. With spring in the air (and on the calendar!) I thought I'd focus on my very favourite spring flowers and feature the Timeless Tulips bundle.

Timeless Tulips Bundle (Item #153793)

Now, today's project only uses the stamp set, but I will be demonstrating two additional projects in today's Live @ Five video that use the punch as well.

Check out this pretty, spring-y card...

I started with a Whisper White background panel embossed using the Basket Weave embossing folder. I added some Pacific Point gingham DSP from the Brights 6" x 6" pack as well as a cut little stitched scalloped border on the diagonal. (I honestly can't remember the last time I used Pacific Point on ANYTHING...and I have no idea why!) 

I created the base for my wreath using the swirly label die from the Painted Labels dies, cutting one is Granny Apple Green and one in Whisper White. The sentiment, from the Timeless Tulips stamp set,  is stamped in Pacific Point ink.

To add the spray of tulips, I stamped the smallest tulip from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Melon Mambo ink on Flirty Flamingo card stock. I fussy-cut out the tulips and added a hint of Wink of Stella. I stamped some leaves on Granny Apple Green ink on card stock of the same shade and fussy-cut them as well. Then I added some die-cut sprigs from the Cherry Blossoms stamp set and punched Daffodil Delight sprigs.  I finished it off with a cute little Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon bow.

On the inside I  added a Whisper White panel on which I stamped more tulips and leaves in Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green respectively. The sentiment is from the SAB Tags in Bloom stamp set. 

Here's a link to my video in which I demonstrate this card and two others using the Timeless Tulips bundle...

Thanks for stopping by today. Be well and stay safe in these crazy times!

Pleased as Punch Flower Pot Gift Card Holder

Happy Monday! I hope you had a good weekend. Around here it was a busy one, but then, they're ALL busy! I spent some quality time in my studio playing with the new Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper from the Coordination Product Release. I have to say...I can't get enough of that stuff! So many fun possibilities! Check out this cute project I designed...

Now, who wouldn't love to get a pretty pot of tulips, especially in the dead of a Canadian winter?? These tulips, punched from the Pleased as Punch DSP using the Tulip Builder punch, are so colourful and pretty, they were begging to be arranged in a pretty pot. The best part is that this pot holds a secret...

It's a gift card holder! How perfect would this be to give on Mother's Day or a special birthday...or even as a teacher gift? Thanks to the punched tulips and leaves, it is super-easy to put together and the only stamping is the sentiment. 

I'll be demonstrating this fun project in this week's Tuesday Live @ Five video over on my Facebook page tomorrow at 5 pm ET. If you can't join me live you can catch the replay over on my YouTube channel or on the Free Video Tutorials page found in the right sidebar. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Have a spectacular week and be sure to swing by again this Saturday for our monthly Stamping Symphony blog hop.
