Celebrate Sunflowers - Thank You Swap

This is the first card I made using the new Celebrate Sunflowers set.  I did it for a swap this month.  I used the new In-Colors to create it which is Bumble Bee and Just Jade cardstock.  The base of the card is Soft Suede.  I ran the sunflower through the new Tasteful Textile after die cut it out.  I did the same with second layer.  I sponged the edges with Soft Suede.  
Here is my instructions:


Stamp Set:  Celebrate Sunflowers #152517 (Page 13 of 2020-21 AC)
Bundle:  #154065 for $51.25 on page 175
Cardstock:  Soft Suede #115318, Bumble Bee #153077, Just Jade #153079
Ink:  Soft Suede #147115, Garden Green #102584
Other:  Die Cutting Machine, Sunflower Dies #152704, Tasteful Textile 3D Folder #152718, (N) Adhesive Sheets #152334, Sponge #141337, Multipurpose Glue #110755, Dimensionals #104430, Wink of Stella #141897

1.     The base of the card is Soft Suede cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2”and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is Bumble Bee cardstock cut 4” x 5-1/4” and inserted into the 3D folder and run through the die-cutting machine.  Then ink up the edges with a Sponge and Soft Suede ink.  Adhere to the base card with Multipurpose Glue.
3.    Cut a 3-1/2” x 3-1/2” square of Soft Suede cardstock.
4.    Ink up two large leaves on Just Jade cardstock using Garden Green ink.  Die cut with the Sunflower Dies (leaf).  Adhere to the square with Multipurpose Glue in the top left corner and the bottom right corner.  Use Wink of Stella.
5.    With the outline die of the sunflower and using Bumble Bee cardstock, die cut the base of the sunflower.  Then insert it into the Tasteful Textile 3D Folder and run it through the die-cutting machine.  Sponge the edges of Soft Suede ink.
6.    Next use the detailed overlay sunflower die using the Bumble Bee cardstock.  I used an adhesive sheet for the backing so it is easier to adhere to the base of the sunflower.
7.    Die cut the center using Soft Suede cardstock and the Sunflower Die.  Adhere with a Dimensional.  Add Wink of Stella to the center of the sunflower. 
8.    Attach Dimensionals to the back of the sunflower and attach to the Soft Suede square over the leaves.

Celebrate Sunflowers - Stampin' Blends

Here is another Celebrate Sunflowers card that I made.  I'm just having so much fun using this stamp set, I haven't started using my other pre-order stamp sets yet.  On this one, I used the Stampin' Blends and does it look like I've added extra layers to give it dimension?  No, I didn't but I love how this card turned out using the Stampin' Blends. The Stampin' Blends will be sold as combos instead of individually starting June 3, so the codes will be different starting then.  I used the new label called Lovely Labels Pick a Punch too.  The Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine will not be able when the new catalog begins, but sometime soon.
Here is the instructions to make this card:

4.    Ink up three leaves with Early Espresso ink and stamp on Whisper White cardstock.  Color them in with the Old Olive Blends Combo.  Die cut them out. Adhere to card as shown with Adhesive.
5.    Put Dimensionals on the back of sunflower and adhere to the card over the leaves but leaving room for the sentiment label.

6.    For the label, ink up the sentiment “Let’s Celebrate You” with Early Espresso ink on a 1” x 3-1/2” of Whisper White strip.  Insert into the right side of the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch making sure it is centered before punching.  Adhere to the bottom of the card with Adhesive.

Celebrate Sunflowers in Misty Moonlight

When I received my 2020 May Paper Pumpkin, it had a new In-Color Stampin' Spot called Misty Moonlight, so since I couldn't order the new In-Color ink pads until June, I decided I wanted to make a blue sunflower.  I used the  Misty Moonlight Stampin' Spot on Seaside Spray cardstock for the base of the sunflower and then used the Misty Moonlight for the outline layer of the sunflower.  The new DSP is also Misty Moonlight adhere to Thick Whisper White.  Here is the instructions for making my card:

3.    Die cut the largest Stitched So Sweetly Die from Whisper White cardstock and trim off the top edge with the Paper Trimmer.  Adhere to the front of the card with Multipurpose Glue.
4.    Ink up the leaves using Pretty Peacock ink on Pretty Peacock cardstock.  Die cut them out using the Sunflowers Dies. Adhere with Multipurpose Glue to the Whisper White Stitched So Sweetly die cut.

7.    Put Dimensionals on the back of the layered sunflowers and adhere to the card over the leaves.
8.    Use a post-it note to block part of the sentiment.  Ink it up with the Misty Moonlight ink.  Remove the post-it note and stamp it on Whisper White scrap.  Punch it out with the Classic Label Punch.  Use Multipurpose Glue on the left half of it and a Mini Dimensional on the right side of it.  Attach over on the right side of the sunflower.

Celebrate Sunflowers - Early Espresso

When I was able to view the preorder for demos, the stamp set "Celebrate Sunflowers" was one of the first stamp sets I fell in love with.  I've made a few cards with it, and although this is the third card I've made using this set, I decided to post it first.  This set can be purchased as a bundle because it has Sunflower Dies to go with it.  

My instructions are as follows for making this card:

Stamp Set:  Celebrate Sunflowers #152517
Cardstock:  Early Espresso #119686, Bumble Bee #153077, Whisper White, 2020-2022 In-Color DSP #153070
Ink:  Early Espresso #147114
Other:  Die Cutting Machine, Sunflower Dies #152704, 2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots #152480, Multipurpose Glue #110755, Dimensionals, #104430

1.     The base of the card is Early Espresso cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is 2” x 4-1/4” of the Bumble Bee In-Color DSP.  Ink up the sentiment “Thanks a Bunch” with Early Espresso ink and stamp in the lower right side of the DSP.  Add three Cinnamon Cider Enamel Dots to the left.  Adhere to the bottom base of the card with Multipurpose Glue.
3.    Die cut the base of the flower from the Bumble Bee In-Color DSP using the Sunflower Dies.  Then die cut the detailed overly sunflower from Early Espresso cardstock.  Use Multipurpose Glue to adhere over the sunflower base.  Put Dimensionals on the back and adhere to the top of the card.
