More Easter and Nature’s Perfection
I couldn’t stop using the fun rose template that is part of the Artisan Embellishment Kit in the Stampin’ Up! 2015 Occasions Catalog. If you missed it, you’ll find another version HERE. I’ve also explained how to use Sponge Daubers and Stamp Pads to create the background on that first card. This one uses Real Red roses on a background of Old Olive.
- I die cut two Basic Black cardstock pieces for this card. The “happy” comes from the Hello You Thinlits, and the sweet edging is a piece from Finishing Touches Edgelits, both used with the Big Shot.
- The butterfly and the row of flowers are both stamps contained in Nature’s Perfection, a newly added stamp set to the Sale-A-Bration offering this month. Spend $50 (before tax/shipping) on any Stampin’ Up! products, and choose this beautiful stamp set free!
- I wanted the butterfly to have the same softly colored feel as the stenciled roses, so I stamped in Black StazOn Ink then used my Sponge Dauber and Real Red stamp pad to add a splash of color to it. And Stampin’ Up! has a coordinating punch called Elegant Butterfly that will line up with this stamp precisely.
- “Easter” comes from the Indescribable Gift stamp set, also in the 2015 Occasions Catalog.
- I came up with a pretty accent and something different for this card. I used the smallest Basic Black Button in the Neutrals Designer Button packet, then placed the largest Rhinestone Jewel in the center. Fits perfectly and gives the right look to the card!

Nature’s Perfection Easter
Today I’m showing you a card that mixes up several stamp sets and accessories. But the real feature here is how to create the rose stenciled background piece! I just LOVE the Artisan Embellishment Kit found on pg. 27 of the Occasions Catalog! It’s perfect for the home crafter, with a little bit of this and some of that all in one kit.
- One of the best parts about this kit is that there are two double-sided Sahara Sand and Whisper White 3″x4″ cards. you can use them “as is” or you can use them like a stencil. I combined my Sponge Daubers with this stencil, along with Hello Honey and Old Olive stamp pads, to create the pretty rose background.
- Another element from the Artisan Embellishment Kit is the Doily. It’s a bit smaller than the regular package of doilies we carry, and I like having some smaller sizes too.
- I’m also featuring the newly-added Sale-A-Bration stamp set called Nature’s Perfection which stamped the butterfly and the greenery on the 2-1/2″ Circle. I stamped the butterfly in Night of Navy ink then colored in with and Hello Honey and Marine Mist Markers. And Stampin’ Up! has a coordinating punch called Elegant Butterfly that will line up with this stamp precisely. Nature’s Perfection is only available as a free gift to you for spending $50 during Sale-A-Bration. But hurry – there are less than 2 weeks left of this fabulous sale!
- Happy Easter comes from Indescribable Gift stamp set found in the 2015 Occasions Catalog. I stamped in VersaMark and heat embossed using White Embossing Powder and my Heat Tool.
- Pearls are a nice accent down the body of the butterfly and a row of them under Happy Easter.

Indescribable Gift
Easter is early this year – April 5th – so I’ll be gearing up to show you lots of Easter projects during March. For my first card of the season, I’ve used Indescribable Gift, a beautiful stamp set in the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalog. You’ll receive this beautiful flower image plus 3 great sentiments.
- My color scheme for this card is Pear Pizzazz, Pink Pirouette and Rose Red, with just a touch of So Saffron for the flower centers and Crumb Cake for the tree branch.
- I’ve always loved coloring images with my Aqua Painter and stamp pads. And while our Blendabilities are on hold right now, I’m back to one of my favorite ways to color! I used Naturals White cardstock; this paper takes the water from the Aqua Painter much better than the smooth Whisper White cardstock.
- Remember to stamp with StazOn when using water!
- The pretty Pink Pirouette polka dot paper (say THAT 3 times fast!) comes from the Subtles Backgrounds Designer Series Paper Stack.
- The splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge stamp set has got to be one of my favorite stamps of all times! It adds just a little something to fill in around the edges.
- The sentiment is punched out with the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch. I added a piece of Rose Red Lace from the Artisan Embellishment Kit behind it and popped the circle up with Dimensionals.
