Story of Elegance

Welcome!  Today’s the Day!!  Our Annual Catalog has launched!   Yay!

Front of the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!

I’m happy that you’re here to share another Stampin’ Up! annual catalog launch with me.  If you haven’t already received this fabulous catalog, you’re in for a treat.  It’s chock full of fabulous paper crafting products and I’m happy that I get to share my creations using them over the next twelve months.

Today, I’m sharing one of the beautiful products that is only in our lineup until June 2021.  It the lovely  Back to Back Blooms stamp set.  This sweet little set is very versatile and it’s easy to overlook it.

The flowers in this set are so pretty.  I used them to create a lovely background for my card today.

Back to Back Blooms – Embossed Happy Birthday

This beautiful stamp set is part of the January – June 2021 Mini catalog and won’t be around for much longer.  As you are adding all the new items you want from the new catalog to your shopping cart, be sure to add this sweet set too.

To create this shiny little beauty, I stamped several of the floral stamps and one of the leaf stamps randomly in Versamark on a 4″ x 5 1/4″ panel of Just Jade card stock.  I heat embossed the stamped images with Silver Embossing powder.  The silver embossing is so pretty and adds  just the right amount of gleam to the card.  I cut a  4 1/8″ and 5 7/8″ panel of Silver Foil and added the Just Jade panel to it.

For the sentiment panel, I used the recently retired Stitched Shapes dies and Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set.   (I’m really sad to see them leave the line, but they’re some of my favs, so you’ll still see them from time to time.)  The smallest squares were used to cut the Silver Foil and the Basic White squares.  I heat embossed the sentiment to coordinate with the embossed backdrop.  Stampin’ Dimensionals were used on the back of the stamped square to add a little depth.
