Tropical Blooms - Stampin' Up!® Simply Beautiful

   The Simply Beautiful bundle makes gorgeous layered flowers and my local stampers got to see for themselves at my last class when they made this bright tropical floral card.

  The supply packet for this project was quite boring with all Basic White cardstock pieces except for a small piece of Daffodil Delight.  But the fun of this card is getting to add all the color!

  The card base is Basic White thick, then a layer of Basic White embossed with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder. Then a strip of Basic White for the sentiment in Granny Apple Green.

  Finally the fun!  Using Daffodil Delight, Timid Tiger and Poppy Parade ink and blending brushes the ink is blended onto a panel of Basic White and then the flower layers are die cut from it.  This is a fun technique to get multi-colored flowers in whatever combo you'd like. The large flower is the 2 largest dies plus a smaller die.  There is a dimensional between the 2 larger layers.  The small flower is 2 layers also with a dimensional.  Both flowers have Daffodil Delight pistil and stamens.

  The leaves are made the same way with Granny Apple Green blended in and then the leaf image stamped over the top in the same ink.

  The final touch for this card is a pair of Pearlized Faceted Circles to add some sparkle.

  I shared a sped up video of this design coming together over on Instagram if you'd like to take a look!

 Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
