DOUBLE POINT CARD: WINTERLY TREETOPS

I came across the Winterly Meadow Designer Series Paper in my craft room the other day and started to play. The card design is called Double Point, and it’s apparently been around for a while – but it’s new to me! It’s a perfect way to use our beautiful paper.

  • Stamps: Winterly Treetops, Elements of Text
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party, Wild Wheat, Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce, Pretty Peacock
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Winterly Treetop dies, Spotlight on Nature dies, Stampin’ Blends, Iridescent 1/2″ trim, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I colored this birdie with Blends to make sure there was a perfect match with the DSP. I might have gotten a little silly with the Iridescent trim – I sliced it up into little strips. Can you use your imagination? Does it look just a little bit like a nest? Humor me.

The interior panel slides right out. I’ll add a sentiment in the center when I decide to send the card. I often leave off a sentiment if it’s easy to add at the last minute to give myself options.

I’m wondering if it’s worthwhile to make a tutorial for this card. I’m away from my craft desk for a few more days, but if you’re interested, leave a comment. In the meantime, you can shop for supplies in the Online Store.

CORNER IN BLOOM: PETUNIA POP BIRTHDAY

Corner in Bloom is one of my favorite Sale-a-bration stamp sets, and while I’m not certain these flowers are petunias, I’m very happy to see them in Petunia Pop. These are happy flowers!

  • Stamps: Corner in Bloom (SAB 2025), With You in Mind, Elements of Text
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Petunia Pop, Granny Apple Green, Gray Granite
  • Accessories: Paper snips, Stampin’ Blends, 24-26 In Color DSP pack, Iridescent 1/2″ trim, 24-26 In Color Resin Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I’m gonna get real here: this didn’t work out the way I envisioned it. I’m not happy with the script from Elements of Text that was supposed to be in the background but ended up looking like I accidentally made a grocery list on my card. I tried to add it after everything else was done, and I should have taken the time to carefully mask off the sentiment and the flowers. Live and learn!

Instead, I took the time to add these flowers to the inside corners. This set comes with corners and single flowers from each corner, and it was the single flower I used to do this.

We’re halfway through February, and that means we’re on the downhill side of Sale-a-bration 2025. If you’d like to earn Corner in Bloom (or any other SAB selection) for free, head over to the Online Store and do a little shopping.

HAPPY HIBISCUS WITH THE FOREVER PLAID EMBOSSING FOLDER

Happy Hibiscus looks great in shades of yellow, but don’t you think it’s gorgeous in Fresh Freesia?

  • Stamps: Happy Hibiscus, Ice Cream Swirl (sentiment)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Petunia Pop, Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Happy Hibiscus dies and Hybrid Embossing Folder, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Changing Leaves dies, Iridescent 1/2″ trim, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Paper Snips

I did a bit of fussy cutting on the sentiment and set it on the small oval from Changing Leaves. I added Iridescent 1/2″ trim to soften the leaves – it’s a beautiful accent trim.

Happy Hibiscus is an Online Exclusive– search for it by name in the Online store and add it to your crafty toolbox!! It’s a great choice for Sale-a-bration 😉

(Between the two of us, I bought an extra bundle for myself just in case I lose anything. This one is a keeper!)
