Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper

Pretty Florals Best Wishes Card

| Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

Here is another card that uses the Pretty Florals Bundle, which is part of the Florals in Bloom Suite in the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. I CASED the catalog for this card, changing up the colors, papers and greetings.

Measurements

  • Basic White – cut one piece at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ for card base; one piece at 2 3/4″ x 4″
  • Florals in Bloom DSP – 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
  • Garden Green cardstock – 2 1/4″ x 5″
  • Shy Shamrock cardstock – 1 1/4″ x 4″
  • Bubble Bath cardstock – 2 1/2″ x 5″
  • Petunia Pop cardstock – 1 3/4″ x 5″

Here is how I made the card.

  • Score Basic White card base at 4 1/4″, fold and crease with bone folder.
  • Adhere floral DSP piece to front of card.
  • Die cut two of the thick leaves from the Pretty Florals dies with the Garden Green cardstock.
  • Die cut two of the long leaf clusters with the Shy Shamrock cardstock.
  • Die cut two of the large flowers from the solid die with Bubble Bath cardstock.
  • Adhere a piece of adhesive sheet to the Petunia Pop cardstock. Die cut two of the floral accent pieces w. flower centers. Remove adhesive sheet backing and adhere to solid flowers.
  • Stamp greeting with Petunia Pop ink on the 2 3/4″ x 4″ piece of Basic White cardstock. I used the With You in Mind stamp set. Adhere piece to card front.
  • Arrange the Garden Green and Shy Shamrock flowers to the left side of the greeting piece. Arrange large flowers over the leaves. Once you like the arrangement, adhere all pieces with either liquid glue or Stampin’ Seal.
  • Stamp greeting with Petunia Pop ink on inside of card. Even though the card base is white, I always cut another piece of Basic White cardstock at 4″ x 5 1/4″ for the inside. If I mess up, at least I can redo it without ruining the card base. I also like the more finished look it gives to the inside.
  • Embellish with a few of the 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems. Please note that they are no longer available.

There is still time to take advantage of the Suite and Suite Products Sale, which runs through June 30th. Here are a few details about the sale.

  • Suites and suite products from the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog, Buy one, get one at 50% off. Online Exclusives and Last Chance Products are included. There is a total of 27 suites included in the sale. If you are a demonstrator you can also purchase the Online Exclusives available now for pre-order.
  • Suite collections are available if all items are in stock; if all items are not in stock, you can still shop the available suite products.
  • The discount will appear in your cart once you’ve added two items within the sale parameters to your cart.  Watch the totals in your cart to make sure you are maximizing the benefits of the sale! Products are available only while supplies last.
  • When you shop the sale, the 50% off discount will apply to the lower-priced item (for example, if you buy a suite collection and a stamp set from a suite, the suite would be full price, and the stamp set would be 50% off). NOTE: You can purchase more than 1 suite for 50% off, but you would need to buy a full-price item for the discount. For example, if you add 4 suites to your order, 2 will be full price and 2 will be 50% off. If there are 3 suites in the order, 2 would be full price, and one will be 50% off.
  • Be strategic with your orders. To maximize the buy one, get one 50% off, you realize greater savings by ordering suites or bundles together, rather than ordering, for example, two suites and a set of embellishments. Because the 50% off comes off the lowest priced product, it would be the embellishments that would get the discount and not the second suite.

Pretty Florals Pop-Up Card

| Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

It’s been a few months since I posted cards. I’ve been busy making them for classes but haven’t had much time to do blog posts! Today’s card is a fun fold that features the Designer Series Paper from the Florals in Bloom Suite in the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. I’ve been seeing different versions of this fun fold. This version is based on Susan Campfield’s Pop-up Parade fun fold. It looks complicated but it isn’t that hard to put together. It just has a lot of pieces!

Measurements

  • Card base – Basic White cardstock cut at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ and folded in half.
  • Inside of card – Basic White cardstock cut at 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Top and bottom Basic White bands cut at 3/4″ x 5 3/4″. Score at 3/4″, 1/1/2″, 4 1/4″, 5″
  • Center Basic White band cut at 3″ x 5 3/4″. Score at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 4 1/4″, 5″.
  • Basic White cardstock cut at 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ for background piece placed behind the bands. You can substitute the white cardstock for a piece of DSP or cardstock in a coordinating color.
  • Scrap piece of Basic White cardstock for greeting.
  • Floral Bloom Designer Series Paper
    • Top and bottom bands – 2 pieces-1/2″ x 2 1/2″, 4 pieces-1/2″
    • Center band – 1 piece-2 1/2″ x 2 3/4″, 2 pieces 1/2″ x 2 3/4″
    • Side bands – 2 pieces-1/2″ x 5 1/4″
    • Inside of card – one piece 3/4″ x 5 1/4″
  • In Susan’s examples, she matted each piece of DSP. I chose not to do this, so if you want to cut mats for each piece, add 1/8″ to all of the DSP measurements.

Here is how I made the card.

  • Fold the score lines on each of the bands and burnish with a bone folder.
  • Adhere all of the DSP to the three bands.
  • Adhere the left side of the three bands flush against the left side of the folded card base.
  • Emboss the Basic White background piece with the embossing folder of your choice. I used the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder. Adhere to card front, centering it in the middle.
  • Adhere the right side of the three bands flush against the right side of the card base.
  • Adhere the DSP side bands along the right and left side of the card front.
  • Stamp greeting with Secret Sea ink on scrap piece of Basic White cardstock. I used one of my favorite greeting stamp sets, Go To Greetings, which is retired. This is still one of my “go to” greeting sets! Run through die cutting machine with the small banner from the Stylish Shapes die set. Adhere to center panel with mini dimensionals.
  • Adhere the remaining piece of DSP to either side of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock. Adhere to inside of card. Stamp greeting or leave blank to write a note.
  • For a bit of bling, add a few small rhinestone jewels to the center front of the card.
