Sad to say, this Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper is retiring soon! Get some, at a discount, so you can make easy but pretty cards like this Flowering Fields Tulip Thinking of You Card. There are so many coordinating colors with this paper so you have a lot of variety!
I actually put an extra layer on this card, under the designer paper, just because there are so many colors to use. The card base is Mango Melody with a layer of Calypso Coral. Then I used two patterns from the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. The bottom pattern is cut at 2″ wide so that the top piece can overlap by 1/2″ before adhering to the card. I also added a narrow strip of another pattern of dark green to cover that seam. Then I decided to tie some Linen Thread around twice and tied a separate bow and added that! Then I was able to glue the whole Flowering Fields DSP to the card front!
The greeting is stamped in Mango Melody Ink on Basic White from the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set. It is very closely diecut with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies stitched circle and then layered on the next larger Mango Melody die.
On the inside, I added a Basic White layer but added a strip of designer paper to the bottom edge of the white cardstock. That carries the design to the inside plus the Basic White layer provides a place to stamp a greeting or write a personal note. You could do the same just on the Mango Melody card base but it’s a little bright!
Although the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper is retiring on June 30th, the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set and Tulips Dies have carried over into the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. However, if you want the stamp set and dies, I suggest you order the Flowering Tulips Bundle before the end of June. You will save 10% off the total price if you order the Bundle now because in the Annual Catalog the stamp set and dies are sold separately and you will pay full price for both. Note that some other products that are in Bundles that are discounted on the Last Chance Sale will be cheaper to buy separately than in the Bundle!
While you are shopping the Last Chance Products be sure to also check the Clearance Rack for bargains as long as you are ordering!
One more reminder, is that the BOGO sale on the Kits Collection ends June 30. These kits are really cute. You can buy two different kits for yourself or go in with a friend, or buy two of the same kits so you can make them with a family member or friend. Some of the kits are Card Kits and some are slightly different than cards, more like crafts. Hence, the name Crafting Kits! What a fun summer activity that would be to do with a child or someone special during summer vacation! If a Kit is not shown, it is no longer available so there will be no backorders. What you see is what you will get!
There is only a week left of the month of June, believe it or not, so keep checking the Last Chance Products from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog (Spring Mini) and the BOGO Kits Collection Sale!
