Hello, Irresistible Slimline Floral Card

Hello, Irresistible Slimline Floral Card

Get excited for some new products coming March 1, 2023 from Stampin’ Up! This card is made with new designer paper and a stamp set. These new products (and more!) will be “Online Exclusives” meaning that they will not appear in a catalog but you can view them and order them in the Online Store, while supplies last!

This Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper made me think of making a slimline card. It just seemed like the floral pattern would fit nicely on a card made 3 1/4″ x 6 1/4″. I chose that exact size because it would fit in a regular envelope.

The card base is Basic White Cardstock cut at 6 1/2″ x 6 1/4″ and scored in half at 3 1/4″ to make the card. The designer paper is cut at 6″ x 3″. I added a layer of Flirty Flamingo on top of the card base. It is cut just a bit narrower than the card base at 3 1/8″x 6 1/8″. I think it helps to add to the beauty of the designer paper. I love this pattern of paper which looks like the flowers are all stamped or embossed in white.

The greeting is in the Irresistible Blooms Stamp Set. I stamped it in Flirty Flamingo Ink and die cut with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I first thought I would put it up near the top of the card, but then I didn’t like it in that position so I moved it to the bottom over some White 1/4″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. It is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. Normally I would put the bow at the bottom of the greeting, but in this case, it covered up the greeting and I just kind of liked placing it at the top for a change! I also added a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels for a little sparkle to the card.

One interesting thing about this designer series paper is the coordinating colors. Two of them are Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock! If you have been around Stampin’ Up! for a while you might remember those colors. Pull them out of your stash if you have the cardstock and ink! Also on March 1st something is going to be announced about colors! So stay tuned!
