All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.
Hello stampers,
Today I made a card using all but 1 item in the Perennial Lavender Suite & what I'm going to call a different version of the cut & flip technique with DSP paper.
I started with 2 pieces of the same piece of the Perennial Lavender DSP, but cut 1 of the pieces opposite of the other one (I cut 1 floral side up & 1 purple side up) so that all pieces would fit together correctly & you could use on 2 cards. I attached the pieces to a layer of Basic White Cardstock without having to guess where they should go. Next, I used the Perennial Postage Dies to die-cut a rectangle out of Basic White Cardstock, stamped the bunch of lavender from the Painted Lavender Stamp Set using Highland Heather Ink, stamping off twice before stamping onto the cardstock, then stamped a sentiment from the Perennial Postage Stamp Set using the same ink without stamping off & popped it up using Stampin' Dimensionals. I then used the Painted Lavender Dies to die-cut the flower with stems using Basic White Cardstock & then colored them in using Highland Heather & Shaded Spruce Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. Lastly, I added a few of the Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to add some bling to the card.

Hello stampers,
I've been real busy lately & I realized last night that I had this post set for PM instead of AM, so I moved it to today. EEK! I really need to focus on what I'm working on in the moment & try to quiet my brain until I'm done.
I chose to use the Stippled Rose Bundle for today's card. I stamped the big rose cluster using Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, die-cut it, then colored it in using Bubble Bath & Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. I used the Bubble Bath ribbon in the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack to the back of the die-cut in a zig-zag motion & then added Stampin' Dimensionals. I took a layer of Soft Sea Foam Cardstock & embossed it using the Paint Texture 3D Embossing Folder, before attaching it to a Bubble Bath Cardstock base. I then placed the die-cut image on top of the card's base, adding a strip of Bubble Bath Cardstock for the sentiment stamping it with Memento Black Ink to finish the card.

Hello stampers,
I'm having a Thursday throw-back moment for today's project. I've been going through my stamp sets determining if I can possibly give some up or not & then organizing/inventorying them. It is breast cancer awareness month, so I thought I'd make a card with the retired Ribbon Of Courage Stamp Set.
I started by stamping the ribbon using Melon Mambo Ink on Basic White Cardstock, then used the Support Ribbon Dies to die-cut it. I colored the ribbon using Bubble Bath, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Fresh Freesia & Parakeet Party Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. I embossed a small layer of Melon Mambo Cardstock & a layer of Basic White Cardstock with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder, then attached both to a Melon Mambo Cardstock base. I added the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals before adding it to the card.
