I used the Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely stamp set and Butterfly Gala stamp set bundle to create a quick card to share with you today.  I did a video tutorial for making this card on my Facebook page yesterday.  I’ve also uploaded it to my YouTube Channel so you can view it there too!

My card design was inspired by the Fusion Challenge sketch this week:

I started by stamping the flower images from the Forever Lovely photopolymer stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist and Powder Pink inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  I embossed the panel with the Subtle Embossing Folder and then adhered it with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to a Thick Whisper White card base.

I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Lovely stamp set in Flirty Flamingo ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then cut it out with a Stitched Shapes Framelits die.  I adhered the die cut sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the butterfly image from the Butterfly Gala photopolymer stamp set in Flirty Flamingo and Powder Pink inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then punched them out with the Butterfly Duet Punch.  I adhered the butterflies with Glue Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the flower images from the Forever Lovely stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist and Powder Pink inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock to finish the inside of the  card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this card, including card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.

Stampin’ Trimmer Discontinuation

Stampin’ Up! will be retiring the Stampin’ Trimmer as of June 3, 2019, including all accessories—replacement cutting blades, scoring blades, and cutting mats.

While the replacement cutting blades will also retire with the trimmer and will not be featured in the annual catalog, Stampin’ Up! has ordered what would normally be six months of inventory based on recent historical patterns to help customers during this transition away from their current trimmer. But please know that this news could cause faster inventory depletion.

• When the retiring list goes live on April 15, the order limit for the blades will increase from three to six (and the limit will remain at six until they’re no longer available).
• From now until September, intermittent shipments of blades will be received from the supplier. Throughout these months, Stampin’ Up! anticipates times when the blades will not be orderable (and not offered as a backorder). During those downtimes, you will have the option to enter an email address to receive notification when the blades are available again.
