by Tracy | Apr 2, 2020 | Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders, Quick & Easy Card

Today I’m showcasing more new products from the Ornate Garden Suite:
I think the star of this card is the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. Oh my gosh, it’s so pretty! I love using embossing folders because they completely transform a plain piece of cardstock into a work of art!


This is a very quick and easy card to make! After running Seaside Spray cardstock through my die-cutting machine using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder, I wrapped our Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon around the cardstock. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to attach it to the card base.


The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock with Seaside Spray ink using the stamp set, Ornate Thanks. It was then cut out using a die-cutting machine using the Ornate Layers Dies.
Tip: Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip to easily remove all the small pieces from this die (this tip fits onto the Take Your Pick Tool).

If you’d like to create today’s card, here are the measurements!
Measurements
- Seaside Spray cardstock; 11″ x 4-1/4″
- Seaside Spray cardstock: 5-1/4″ x 4″
- Whisper White cardstock: 5-1/4″ x 4″ (for inside)
- Whisper White cardstock: scrap for sentiment

by Tracy | Apr 1, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting, Layering Ovals Dies

Sale-a-Bration is officially over but starting today a brand new suite of products is available – The Ornate Garden Suite! My card today showcases one of those new products: Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper.


It’s hard to see in my photos but this beautiful paper is covered in foil designs so I added some Gold Foil accents using our Gold Foil Sheets.

To create the daisy I used our Daisy Punch (the larger one) to cut a daisy out of gold foil and another one using Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper (DSP). The Medium Daisy Punch was used to cut another daisy out of the DSP. To add dimension, I placed a Stampin’ Dimensional between each layer of the daisy (a Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals was used under the smaller daisy). A Gold Faceted Gem was added to the center of the daisy for some extra sparkle. The Old Olive & Whisper White panel is also popped up with dimensionals. .

I used the Honey Bee stamp set for the sentiment and stamped it in Old Olive ink onto Whisper White Paper. It was cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies. The Gold Foil oval was also cut out using these dies. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back.
All the supplies I used can be found in the supply list below. If you’d like to create today’s card, I’ve included all the measurements below.

by Tracy | Mar 30, 2020 | Card Sampler, Designer Series Paper, Die-Cutting

Today’s card is a Sneak Peek of new products debuting on Wednesday, April 1st. The Ornate Garden Suite is a collection of products in the upcoming 2020-2021 Annual Catalog but Stampin’ Up! is releasing the products early!
The new products (available on April 1st) used on my card are:
- Ornate Thanks Stamp Set
- Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper
- Gilded Gems


This fun fold may seem complicated but it really isn’t. I don’t have a video for today’s card but I did make one about six months ago using this same fold. You can check it out HERE.
The base of the card is Terracotta Tile cardstock and the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series coordinates perfectly with it. The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using Old Olive ink and the stamp set, Ornate Thanks. This stamp set comes with a whopping 19 photopolymer stamps. To finish the card, I added three Gilded Gems for some pretty sparkle!

I’ve included all the measurements below the supply list if you’d like to give this fun fold a try!
