Parisian Beauty-Kylie’s Training Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to Kylie Bertucci’s Demonstrator Training Blog Hop for February! I’m part of a group of demonstrators from around the world that participate in Kylie’s program for building our businesses. Please be sure to click on the names in the list at the end of this post to hop around and view the beautiful cards posted by so many talented stampers.

Today I’m featuring another card using products from the gorgeous Parisian Blossoms Suite.

Here is how I made the card.

  • Card base – cut piece of Pool Party cardstock at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, score and fold in half.
  • Cut piece of paper from the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper at 4″ x 5 1/4″. Cut piece of Petal Pink 1/4″ Metallic Edge Ribbon at 5 3/4″ and adhere lengthwise to center of DSP. Adhere DSP to card base.
  • For the double mats, die cut piece of Petal Pink cardstock with the next-to-largest of the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Cut next piece from the DSP with the script writing using the third largest die from the set. Adhere to larger label and adhere to center of card front.
  • Stamp the Eiffel Tower image from the Parisian Beauty stamp set with Sahara Sand ink and cut out with the coordinating Parisian Dies. Adhere to label piece with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Stamp “Love” sentiment from the Forever Blossoms stamp set with Soft Suede ink on scrap piece of Pool Party cardstock. Cut out with die from the Ornate Frames Dies. Add Champagne Rhinestones to both sides of the greeting and adhere to the tower.
  • For the inside of the card, cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock at 4″ x 5 1/4″. Partially stamp the cherry blossom image from the stamp in the Forever Blossoms stamp set with Petal Pink ink.
  • Stamp a greeting of your choice. I used the Happy Valentine’s Day greeting from the Meant to Be stamp set on page 76 in the annual catalog.

Introducing the Peaceful Poppies Suite

This images in this striking mega-suite made it to the top of my list when I placed my pre-order last month. This suite includes two stamp sets with coordinating dies. The images in the Painted Poppies stamp set are ideal for watercoloring or coloring with Stampin’ Blends. The Peaceful Moments stamp set is a greeting only stamp set, with a beautiful font and sentiments for many different occasions. This will definitely be a “go to” set for me. The dies in this bundle will give you endless possibilties for creating layered, 3-D flowers.

Next is a gorgeous set of Designer Series Papers that was originally watercolored by a Stampin’ Up! design artist. I love the color palette – so bright and fresh!

There are three coordinating accessories to round out this suite. The Peaceful Poppies Elements are add-on die-cut printed images that are great for creating quick cards without you having to do a lot of the work! The package contains 8 sheets, with 2 sheets each of the different elements. The Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon can be used as is or you can use ink pads, reinkers or Stampin’ Blends to color the ribbon to match any project. Lastly, the Peaceful Poppies Sequins include both round and flower shapes.

I will begin posting projects beginning tomorrow, as I am now back on track with my Stampin’ Up! business after taking a partial hiatus due to my recently-completed kitchen renovation. I will be featuring a card using products from this suite.

Thanks for stopping by today!

My kitchen renovation has been completed, although I’m still awaiting delivery of light fixtures, table and chairs, but it is beautiful as is! I’m still unpacking boxes and getting things organized and into the new cabinets. I hope to wind this down over the weekend so that I can finally devote my attention to working on new projects with everything I received in my pre-order. I will be posting on a more regular basis again beginning the week of January 6th.
