Parisian Beauty & Parisian Dies (now retired) - Stampin' Up!

I absolutely loved The Parisian Beauty bundle and accessories when it came out...but I never did get around to using it while it was current!  I was hopeful it would carry over, but no such luck.  So here I am, finally cracking it open and making use of it.

I'll list the other products both current and retired:

Magnolia Lane DSP - retired

Forever Blossoms stamp set

Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon

Vellum Card Stock

Ovals Framelits

Good Morning Magnolia for sentiment

Classic Label Punch 

Elegant Faceted Gems

This lovely black and white card was a CASE of a card by Stamp It Up Jamie.  Wonderful card Jamie!  I did substitute several items to suite what I had on hand.

True Love DSP

Very Versailles for vine and sentiment

Gold embossing powder

Champagne Rhinestones

Champagne Foil Sheets

Basic Black Card Stock

Circle Punch - retired

Another CASE by a card by Linda Dalke of Australia.  Lovely, Linda!

A couple of changes, ie: embossing folder, DSP and sentiment. Items used are:

Subtles embossing folder

Forever Blossoms stamp set 

Magnolia Lane DSP - retired

Champagne Foil Sheets

Cherry Cobbler Card Stock/Ink

Petal Pink Card Stock

This CASE was based on a sweet card by Alison Solven, a fellow Canadian. Because I didn't have the paper anymore and couldn't seem to figure out which paper I could use that I owned, I made my own background piece from a retired stamp.

Free as a Bird stamp set - sentiment

Forever Blossoms stamp set

French Script background stamp - retired

Elegant Faceted Gems

Champagne Foil Sheets

Basic Black Card Stock

Petal Pink Card Stock

It's fun using old product with new product to create (or re-create) pretty, fun cards.

Hydrangea Hill DSP and Beauty Abounds stamp set - Stampin' Up! 2021

While I currently am living through a very active polar vortex, it is lovely to have cheery, summery images to distract from the cold.

Hydrangea Hill has a Suite Collection but I only purchased the paper.  I used other fun products to come up with this quick and easy hydrangea card.

Here are the products (both retired and current) that I used for this card.

Hydrangea Hill DSP and Medium Daisy Punch - Stampin' Up! 2021

 

A pretty card that is quick and easy to make.  Designer Series Paper and a punched daisy are the focal points for the card.  The sentiment is embossed with white embossing powder.  I cut two of the narrow stitched rectangles to enable it fit the 4" width of the DSP.   The new Blending Brushes were used to to add a touch of colour to the centre of the daisy.  That's a retired embellishment on the centre of the flower.

Here are the supplies I used to create this card:

Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper

Medium Daisy Punch

Stitched Rectangles

Band Together for the sentiment

Misty Moonlight & Whisper White Card Stock

Retired circle punch and embellishment for flower centre.

Isn't this the cutest card?!!  Well, it's not my design; Michelle from Owl Star Stampers created this card and she did an awesome job.  I only changed the sentiment.  And then I decided I would make a co-ordinating bookmark with the extra strip of paper from the 6 X 6 sheet.  I trimmed it down to 2 X 6 and then punched the top with the Fancy Tag Topper Punch from the Annual Catalogue.

Products for this card/bookmark are all from the Annual Catalogue (Page 94-96)
