Stepping it Up with Mixed Florals

 Good Morning, Stampers!

Winter or summer, rain or shine, floral cards are always in season—so they’re the perfect, “can’t miss” theme for any occasion. Check out these three levels of stamping - from beginner to avid - featuring the Mixed Florals bundle: 


From left to right:

Start the beginner card by layering one Crumb Cake Cardstock piece over another, leaving a small “frame” around the top layer. Then, stamp the images on the top layer in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and color with Watercolor Pencils. (Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry, Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive, and Pumpkin Pie.) Finish the card by distressing the edges with scissors.

For the mid-level card, stamp the small floral images on the top Crumb Cake Cardstock layer in Crumb Cake ink to create a tone-on-tone background. Stamp the flowers and leaves on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper using StāzOn, watercolor them using Classic Stampin’ Ink Refills and a Water Painter, then die cut. “Glow up” your card using a few embellishments from the Opal Rounds Assortment.

For the most stepped-up card, stamp the floral images and leaves in Basic Beige for a no-line look; then, watercolor the images with ink and a Water Painter and die cut. Adhere the stamped, die-cut image to the top Crumb Cake Cardstock layer (embossed using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder). Splatter the card with watered-down white Craft Stampin’ ink refill and a Water Painter. Die cut the sentiment (stamped in VersaMark ink and heat embossed with white Wow! Embossing Powder). Once the ink splatter is dry, add a Baker’s Twine bow. Distress the edges of the top Crumb Cake Cardstock layer using scissors.
