Handmade Card using 2021 Sale-a-bration PAPER BLOOMS DESIGNER SERIES PAPER from Stampin' Up!

Hello My Crafting Friends,

Today I am sharing another card from my Stampin’ Up 2021 Artisan Design Team showcase project in January 2021.

If you would like to see all my projects together you can visit my blog post here:

For this card I wanted to focus on the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper which is a FREE Sale-a-bration item you can receive when you purchase $50 in Jan-Feb 2021. I love the fun flower images in this paper and wanted to cut some out to create a beautiful bouquet. I also used the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper background to give some texture and shine. The organic images of the flowers play against the strong geometric lines of the background, So fun! At the end, I also share a couple quick ideas on how you can create a similar card using different products. Make sure to take a look at those too (just incase the paper is no longer available). I hope you enjoy this tutorial and that it inspires you to create something beautiful today.
