I was thinking about all my friends who love it when I post flowers colored in shades of purple when I selected my Stampin’ Blends Color Combo for this vertical slimline card featuring the new Flowers Fair stamp. Instead of using the floral image on a standard size card front, I stamped it 3 times on Basic White cardstock strips to make a vertical slimline card with 3 layers (dimensions below).

Reminder: Stampin’ Up! suggests using Basic White cardstock and a Memento Black ink pad for stamping when you are coloring with Stampin’ Blends markers.

Vertical Slimline Card Dimensions

  • Petunia Pop card base: 7-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, score at 3-3/4″ and fold in 1/2.
  • Cut 3 basic white cardstock pieces: 3-1/2″ x 8-1/4″ to stamp, color and layer on the front.
  • Use a business size envelope (#10)
Three pieces of white cardstock, each 3.5" x 8.25", are stamped with black floral designs and trimmed along the flower tops. A black ink pad labeled “Memento” is at the top. Instructions read: “cut 3 pieces 3-1/2" x 8-1/4", stamp and trim as shown.”. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Stamp the Flowers Fair image 3x as shown above, color all 3, and trim above the flowers on the 2 smaller pieces. Layer them together with Stampin’ Dimensionals or Foam Adhesive Sheets.

A trio of floral cards in various stages of coloring rest on a marble surface with an array of purple and pink Stampin’ Blends markers, a Memento ink pad, and crafting scissors. The cards feature hand-colored flowers and the PattyStamps.com watermark. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Isn’t this so cool? It really looks like a beautiful garden of purple posies when you put the 3 layers together with Foam Adhesive Sheets or Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The card says "Hello" and has a watermark: "Patty Bennett PattyStamps.com. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Try Embossing your Designer Paper

| 1 Comment

After watching my embossing folder tips video, did you have a chance to try embossing your designer paper? I just love this technique, and wanted to share 2 handmade card ideas with you today for inspiration.

Embossing your designer paper. A handmade Mother’s Day card with blue floral patterns, a yellow butterfly, and a small bird cutout. The card says “Happy Mother’s Day” in blue text. An embossed patterned folder and a floral envelope are also shown in the background. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

The Mother’s Day card features brand paper from the Delicate Dreams pack #167498, in a beautiful new upcoming 2026-2028 In Color called Hydrangea Hue.

I embossed the 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of DSP with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder then lightly added Misty Moonlight ink by dragging my ink pad across the raised / embossed pattern. See THIS PART of my embossing folder tips video!

I’m so sorry that the spring puffy stickers sold out so quickly, they were available a few weeks ago when I made this card but have sold out. You could recreate it with any stamped images.

A hand holds a handmade card decorated with peach and green floral patterns, embossed flowers, a white ribbon, green leaves, and the message "SO VERY Thankful" in elegant script. Pink pearls embellish the card. The Patty Stamps logo is visible. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Emboss a piece of Lovely & Beautiful designer paper with the Eyelet embossing folder and add ink in an ombre effect. I used Peach Pie and Calypso Coral ink for the ombre effect.

Watch the Embossing folder video from February

Isn’t the difference amazing?
