We are back with another Stamp to Share International Design Team Blog Hop with Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the world!  This month we’re all making projects with the Varied Vases stamp set bundle.  Mine is a little bright so you might want some shades before checking in out.  🙂  Here is my project:

I started by embossing a panel of Granny Apple Green card stock with the Subtle Embossing Folder (I know that embossing for that folder is impossible to see in the catalog, hopefully you can see it here…it’s awesome!!).  I adhered the embossed panel to a the front of a Granny Apple Green card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I punched the ends of a wide panel of Granny Apple Green DSP from the Brights 6″ x 6″ DSP pack with the Banner Triple Punch and then adhered it to the card front with SNAIL.  I cut a rectangle from one of the Pineapple Punch panels of DSP from the 2018-2020 In Color 6″ x 6″ DSP pack and adhered it over the banner with SNAIL.  Then I covered the ends of a panel of Whisper White card stock with Post It Notes and stamped the “shelf” outline from the Varied Vases photopolymer stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink across it.  I inked the solid scalloped shelf image from the Varied Vases stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it over the lined image.

I covered the area where I’d stamped the shelf image with a Post It Note and then stamped the lined flower, stem and leaf images from the Varied Vases stamp set on the Whisper White panel.  I stamped the inside part of the flowers in Flirty Flamingo ink and colored the orchid flower centers with a Pineapple Punch Stampin’ Write Marker.  I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Flirty Flamingo card stock with SNAIL and then to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I stamped the three vase images from the Varied Vases stamp set in Pineapple Punch ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock, punched them out with the Vases Builder Punch and adhered them with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Varied Vases stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink on a panel of Pool Party card stock and then punched both ends with the Banner Triple Punch.  I adhered the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then added two Rhinestone Basic Jewels and one of the Glitter Enamel Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the images from the Varied Vases stamp set in Pineapple Punch Granny Apple Green and Flirty Flamingo inks (used a Post It Note again to mask the vases when I stamped the stems) on a panel of Whisper White card stock inside the card.
