Canada Inks Up Blog Hop-April 2022

Canada Inks Up Blog Hop!

Welcome to our team, Canada Inks Up! Blog Hop. This months theme is a "Sneak Peek" from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue. This Catalogue starts on May 3rd, 2022!

I have used a few new products to create todays card.

Can you guess what the new products are? 

I started with one of the New 2022-2024 In-Colors, Orchid Oasis and the matching 2022-2024 In-Color Designer Paper.

Then I used a new Die Set called Blossoming Happiness Dies! The dies created the edge on the left side of the card, the floral panel in the center and cuts out the flowers and leaves from the matching Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I loved everything about this set that I bought the whole Suite! You can check it out on page #108 of the 2022-2023 Annual catalogue.

I also used the Beautiful Shapes Die for my sentiment. The sentiment is also from a new set called "Limited Edition" and it's stamped in another new In-Color called Starry Sky. 

I added some Rhinestones, a Brushed Brass Butterfly and the beautiful Glittered Organdy Ribbon to complete my card.

Happy Stamping and Creating!

New Post-Dragonflies Thinking Of You Card

 Dragonflies Thinking Of You Card

Todays card features a few new items from the Stampin' Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue. This catalogue starts on May 3rd, 2022. I will list all the NEW items below for you.

The focal point of this card is the stunning "Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper"! It is gorgeous!!

Directions:

I started with a card base using the new 2022-2024 In-color Orchid Oasis. It is cut to 7 3/4" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of Basic Black Card Stock to 3 1/4" x 5 1/4" and a piece of Basic White C/S to 3" x 5" and a piece of the new "Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper" to 2 3/4" x 4 3/4". Glue all 3 together using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.

Then emboss these glued layers using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. Attach them to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment onto a strip of Basic White C/S. Add a small border of Flirty Flamingo C/S that shows underneath the sentiment strip.

Loop some of the Gold Simply Elegant trim, attach it to the card front then attach the sentiment strip over top using Dimensionals.

Punch out 4 small dragonflies using the Dragonflies Punch and Gold Glimmer Paper or Rose and Gold Metallic Paper. Attach 3 of them to the card front using Dimensionals.

For the inside, cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 4" x 5 1/4". 

I stamped the sentiment using the Limited Edition Stamp Set and Orchid Oasis Ink and then over top I stamped a floral image using Flirty Flamingo Ink and the Honeybee Home Stamp Set. Add another small dragonfly. I love this sentiment, "A Paper Hug From Me". Perfect for a paper crafter to send to someone!

I also decorated the envelopes using the same floral image and the Orchid Oasis Ink.

Now, onto todays card. I used Honeybee Home Stamp Set, it will be available on May 3, 2022! 

I just love those bees!

The sentiments in this set are beautiful and the font is so elegant!

Directions:

Start with a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of Daffodil Delight Card Stock. Score it in half at 5 1/2".

Attach a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic Black C/S to the card base.

Cut a 3 3/4" x 5" piece of Daffodil Delight C/S and emboss it using the Hive 3D Embossing Folder. Decide if you would like to show the "embossed" or "debossed" side. Then attach it to the Basic Black C/S layer.

Die cut 3 Basic Black C/S hexagons and 3 smaller Basic White C/S hexagons using the Beautiful Shapes Dies.

On the 3 Basic White C/S shapes stamp a bee using Memento Black Ink. Colour the bee body using a Daffodil Delight Dark Stampin' Blends and a Dark Basic Black Stampin' Blends. Add some Wink Of Stella for some sparkle!

Glue the shapes together then attach them to the card front using Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White C/S, stamp the sentiment in Memento Black Ink. Attach it to a slightly larger Basic Black C/S strip. Flag cut one end. Attach it to the card.

Tie a bow using the Glittered Organdy Ribbon, attach it to the card using a Glue Dot.

Add some Iridescent Rhinestones to finish off the card.

I hope you enjoy todays bright and cheery card. 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
