Sneak Peek of the new Hand-Penned Petals bundle from Stampin' Up!

 

Today I just had to play around with some new products!  I know, there is still a couple weeks left of the current Annual Catalog, and a month and a half of the Spring Mini Catalog, but with the new Annual Catalog sitting here on my desk, I couldn't help myself.  I just had to dive into the new pretty papers and colors. 

I thought I would first start with the Hand-Penned Petals bundle.  I love the artwork of the set, with the variety of ways that it can be used. Of course the first way I had to use it was to watercolor.  I also made a version of the card where I used the stamp images to color in the florals too. 

 Here is my first play with the set. I love the new papers, the pretty greens and the possibilities of coloring techniques. I thought the sentiment here is perfect! 

I watercolored the image with Garden Green, Highland Heather, Pale Papaya (new) and Polished Pink (new).

On this second version I show how to fill in the flowers with the stamps instead. To darken the flower centers I used a Pale Papaya marker. The ribbon here is new too! 

Do you see that fun border at the bottom of the accent paper? That is a fun new die from the Border Basics Dies.  I show them in detail in my video below, as well as all the new colors and some more new ribbons. 

Take a look at a step by step for these cards in the video below. I show both cards with some new products sprinkled in. 

Here's another version, with some new ribbons and a different border die. 

The new Annual Catalog goes live soon! I will post it here on May 4th! If you have purchased this past year, I have already ordered on to be sent to you.  

Be sure to check back in the coming days for more new samples!
