Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope you week has started off good. I get to bring my puppy to a new vet today. I’ve gotten nothing but amazing feedback from this vet and I’m looking forward to meeting them. I don’t know if Coraline is since it means she has to get in the car. She does not like card rides. We try to bring her on a lot of short rides, but it hasn’t helped.

I played with some of the new Online Exclusive DSP for my card today. These new papers are so pretty. Have you checked them out yet? If you’d like to see a quick video of my card, click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Bundle along with the Online Exclusive Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper and the Banner Pick A Punch for my card today.

My design is from the Sunday Stamps Challenge #318.

I started by adhering a panel of Delightful Floral DSP to a Pretty Peacock card bae using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a smaller panel of Delightful Floral DSP to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal.

Using the Banner PIck A Punch, I cut 2 strips of Delightful Floral DSP on 1 end. I adhered the banners to the layered panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals Cling Stamp Set in Calypso Coral Ink, stamping off on scrap paper 2 times. I stamped the leaf image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink 2 times, stamping off on scrap paper once. I cut the images out using the Translucent Florals Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on the flower. I adhered the leaves to the back of the flower using Glue Dots. I adhered the flower to the card front over the banners using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Blooming Pearls to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the flower image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Calypso Coral on the panel, stamping off 2 times on scrap paper. I stamped the leaves from the Translucent Florals stamp set by the flowers in Pretty Peacock Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat then to the inside of the pretty Peacock card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the stem and leaf images from the Translucent Florals stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on the flower. I adhered a panel of Delightful Floral DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
