Hi all!   I don’t have a video for you this week but I do have a quick project to share and some news to share!

VIEW/PRINT RECIPE PDF WITH MEASUREMENTS HERE

Here is an easy Sunflower Embossing folder project that you can do in any color!
(if you missed my last video using this fun folder 4 ways, click HERE to see it)
I had a pack of the Wildflower Two-Tone assorted cardstock and embossed the Blueberry Bushel color.
The two-tone cardstocks have a white core so the raised images can be sanded for some extra oompf!
The card base is also Blueberry Bushel and I used Remarkable You stamp set to add a sentiment.
I think I’ll make them in all the colors:)

Now for my news… 
I’m very close to my one million dollars in Stampin’ Up career sales!
(Hey, it only took 25 years LOL)   It’s a big milestone and I’m grateful to so many customers who order from me:)  IF you need something stampy, I’m giving an extra freebie for orders of $50 or more with me before the end of July!  (if you already ordered with me in July, you can choose one also:)

You can call or email me your order like usual or order online HERE 

I have 4 samplers to choose from – each one has 12 sheets of 6×6 designer paper, 6 coordinating card bases, one yard samples of ribbons, and embellies.  Place an order before July 31st and you can let me know which sampler you would like!

The new In Color, Cloud Cover, is so pretty embossed!  Adding some of the Cloud Cover faux linen ribbon adds just a bit of softness.
If you don’t have these dies already, they are on the Last Chance list for only $13.80!
Sentimental Park Dies  #160566  
The coordinating stamps are already gone but the dies work well on their own.

The Right Words sentiment stamp set has been so useful lately!
#165316  $26 

This card is a bit brighter – I colored in the recessed area with the Balmy blue watercolro pencil and blended it with a blender pen.  A little bit of Darling Duckling and Old Olive blends to add some color.  I used Azure Afternoon as the card base to pop it more.

Plaid and sunflowers are just good ‘ol americana style together.  In this card, I fussy cut the sunflower out from the folder and used the Darling Ducking alchol blends markers to color.
I really like the modern oval look of the Impressions in Bloom dies.


This next one is my favorite accident – I rubbed my Memento black pad on the ‘wrong’ side of the embossed paper.   I love how it came out!
