DIY OCTOBER 2024: REGAL FLORA

Didn’t think I needed another flower. Didn’t think I needed Regal Flora. Didn’t think I WOULD BE SO WRONG!

  • Stamps: Regal Flora (and yes, you need it too!)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Pebble Path, Petal Pink, Calypso Coral
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, Regal Flora dies, 24-26 In Color Shimmer Gems, Dauber, Stampin’ Dimensionals

This is such an easy technique to add depth to an image. Ink your stamp (I used Petal Pink) and dunk your dauber into another color (Calypso Coral in this example). Gently tap your dauber – you don’t want a circle of color, you want a gradation. Stamp! And admire your cleverness.

I also stamped off the Pebble Path background twice before I added it to the calendar page, and once before I stamped it for the stems.

I featured Regal Flora twice last month on the Maui Stamper, and pretty much stole THIS idea for my calendar. (HERE is the other one.) I could have chosen another color palette, but I like this one. Choose what you like at the Online Store.

POP OF REGAL FLORA

Do you love the new Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder as much as I do? What a way to make a white-on-white card pop – and adding Petunia Pop seals the deal <wink>

  • Stamps: Regal Flora, Sweetly Scripted
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Petunia Pop, Bubble Bath
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, Regal Flora dies, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, 24-26 In Color Shimmer Gems, Stampin’ Dimensionals

That gorgeous framed panel is one die that cuts out two pieces. (I should have paid more attention in geometry class, I could tell you more about that shape!) I cut it twice: once in Basic White, once in Bubble Bath, and did a mix-and-match. Love Love Love!!!

After I inked the stamp with Bubble Bath, I used a dauber to add a little Petunia Pop to the center of the bloom. I really love this look! If you do too, shop the Online Store.

It’s finally LIVE! Check out the September – December mini catalog. You’re gonna love it!

REGAL FLORA from the NEW MINI!

The September – December mini catalog launches tomorrow, and I hope you’re ready! Regal Flora was a bit of a sleeper for me. I added it to my Demonstrator pre-order on a bit of a whim, but I’m a big fan – tell me what you think!

  • Stamps: Regal Flora, Keeping Tabs
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Calypso Coral
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, Regal Flora dies, Keeping Tabs punch, Country Lace DSP, dauber, Linen Thread, 24-26 In Color Shimmer Gems, Stampin’ Dimensionals

The flowers are stamped and die cut in a cluster of 3, and I made 3 clusters. I inked them with Petal Pink, then used a dauber to add Calypso Coral to the centers. There’s plenty of room for individual expression with how much Calypso you add!

My beloved Linen Thread (may it remain with us forever) winds through the flowers, and the Keeping Tabs punch provides a fun little tag (trim the punched shape through the center). A few gems add some sparkle.

The September – December mini is FULL of beautiful new products – shop early and often!

As you know, new catalogs sometimes have supply and demand imbalances, so shop the Online Store soon.
