Simply Sunday: Stampin’ Up!s Beautifully Happy

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, Sale-a-bration by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’d like to introduce you to the Beautifully Happy Stamp set, you will find it in the Sale-a-bration catalog. Create beautiful floral projects using the Beautifully Happy Stamp Set. This all-occasion stamp set features floral designs as well as greetings that can be used on their own or paired together for more versatility all year long!

Combine the stamp pieces of the hollyhocks for a Two-step effect or create a soft and subtle individual colored floral background using your favorite coloring tools. Send happy thoughts, share friendly notes, or wish happy birthday through your own floral style! 

This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colors you want. As a Distinktive stamp set; it has a special texture that gives added depth and dimension in a single step, creating photo-realistic images.

I used the Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent for my inks for this two step stamping technique and I brought back the Fresh Freesia Fine Glimmer paper as I did yesterday. I also added Wink of Stella onto my Hollyhocks to tie in with the Glimmer paper.

The greeting comes from the Beautifully Happy stamp set and then punched out with the Double Oval Punch. This was attached to the floral piece and then both were popped up using the Stampin’ Dimensionals to create texture and dimension to the card.

To finish off this beautiful card, I used the Fresh Freesia color of the Milky Dots (I just love them) and they really do complete this card. Have I sold you on this stunning Fine Shimmer paper yet? I can’t seem to keep my hands off it.

I want to Thank You for taking time out of your Sunday to visit me today. It’s snowing again outside so I’ll be crafting all day, hope you can take time out to create something today to.

  • A PDF for each of the projects in the class which includes pictures, instructions and a list of ingredients.
  • You will also have access to a video for each of the projects.

Here is the replay of last nights Facebook LIVE … I also have both cards to share with you today as well.

My first card was done in Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie … sounds yummy doesn’t it! The tips shared in the video really helps in the alignment of the two step technique.

You’ll notice that I’ve changed a few things from the video. I noticed that my greeting was a bit crooked … don’t you hate when that happens!! So I just stamped it on another piece of paper and punched the ends like I did on the Cherry Cobbler card coming next.

I also used my Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blend to color my Opal Rounds. I also stamped some leaves and added them to the card … wow, it really makes the colors pop!

The distinktive stamps in this set really bring the dahlias to life …

I used the Scalloped Contours dies to create the background, and the Lovely Labels punch for my greeting. I didn’t want to get “too fancy” and take away from those stunning dahlias!!

I couldn’t get my “name game” to spin my winner here on my blog, so I’ll be sure to spin next week … I don’t want to miss my rewards to my loyal LIVE fans!! You guys rock!!

Hope you enjoyed today’s cards and all the tips shared in the video!! I thank you hanging out with me today.
