A Happy Hibiscus Card Tutorial!

Hi, friends!

I wanted to let you know there won’t be a live video today as I’m spending time with family. Thank you for your understanding! I’ll be back soon to share more crafty inspiration and fun projects with you.

In the meantime, I’m excited to share this beautiful card I created using the online-exclusive Happy Hibiscus stamp set and hybrid embossing folder. This set is packed with tropical vibes and stunning details, perfect for adding a touch of sunshine to your projects!

Card Details

Here’s a closer look at the card:

The vibrant hibiscus flower is the star of this card, complemented by the intricate embossed background created with the hybrid embossing folder. I used a bright color palette to bring the tropical theme to life, but you can customize it to fit your style!

You can find a full list of materials used below. You can order any of these supplies from me here: https://www.stampinup.ca?hostcode=X7VTGRN4


Paper Snips
[103579]
$16.50

To create this card – emboss a 4″ X 5-1/4″ piece of Basic White with the Happy Hibiscus embossing folder and a ttach to the Thick Basic White cardbase. Then die cut and emboss two of the flowers using the hybrid dies. Add Daffodil Delight and Flirty Flamingo Ink to the cut outs using sponge daubers and/or blending brushes.

Then use a blending brush to add Balmy Blue Ink to a Greetings of the Season tag die cut. Stamp the sentiment in Balmy Blue and attach the flowers around it. Add the twine to the top and use Dimensionals to attach the tag to the card front. Finally, embellish with Iridescent Pearls. This is a simple card to create and you can have so much fun switching up the colours.

When you place a $65 order this month I will also send you the link to a fantastic 29 project Tutorial Bundle as a thank you!

I hope this card inspires you to get creative! Let me know in the comments if you’ve tried these fabulous products yet or if you have any questions about the process. I’d love to see what you’re making!

Alpine Air Kit by Stampin’ Up!

This month Stampin’ Up! is having a kit sale – 30% off all kits!! So I am featuring the new Alpine Air Kit. In this kit you get supplies to make 9 cards ( 3 each of 3 designs). All our kits come with everything you need (paper, adhesive, stamp set, block, and ink, etc…) except a pair of scissors and a stamp cleaner. You can see the video I created of the 3 designs from the kit as well as 3 alternative designs. Keep scrolling for a 4th bonus card that I made after the video ended.

Here are the 3 cards (almost) as the kit instructions show.

Here are my 3 alternative cards.

Finally, here is my 4th bonus card – I found the extra Night of Navy cardstock piece on my desk while cleaning up. So I die cut some Thoughtful Journey DSP with the Deckled Rectangles and put it all together on a Thick Basic White card base.
