Tulip Thanks - Stampin' Up!® Sunshine & Tulips

 The CAS Colours & Sketches challenge team is back for 2026 and we have 2 challenges a month to help you get creative with your Clean and Simple designs! CAS means an uncluttered design with lots of open space and minimal layers and embellishments. We are starting the year off with a gorgeous set of colors from Nancy!  Cherry Cobbler, Secret Sea and Old Olive.

  I have so many new stamp sets from the just released Stampin' Up!® January-April 2025 mini catalog that it was a bit hard to narrow down what to use for this challenge.  I finally landed on the new Sunshine & Tulips bundle because who doesn't love a red tulip?

  I started with a clean Basic White thick card base, then added 2 label shapes, one in Secret Sea cut using the Traditional Label dies and the second in Basic White and cut with the Sunshine & Tulips dies.

  I stamped the leaves in Old Olive and drew the stem with my Stampin' Blends Old Olive dark marker.  I die cut the tulip flower shape and then stamped in the outer petals in full strength Cherry Cobbler ink and then did the center petal in stamped off Cherry Cobbler.  I then popped the flower up on the stem with dimensionals.  

 

  The flower panel is added to the card front over the Secret Sea label and is popped with more dimensionals.

  The sentiment is stamped in Secret Sea and the finishing touch of 2 Pressed Flower Motifs embellishments are added to accent the label.

  I hope to see your design in the challenge gallery!  

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
