01.23.21…..Happy Friday, everyone! Today, I’m thrilled to share my first monthly showcase projects for the Stampin’ Up! 2021 Artisan Design Team! For this month’s projects, I was asked to use the Pretty Perennials Bundle (from the January – June Mini Catalog), along with the Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper and the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (both from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog).
There have also been a few changes to the way the Artisan Design Team is sharing projects this year. The team has been divided into three groups, and each group is assigned a different collection of products to create with. This means an even greater variety of projects and inspiration. And…Instead of the monthly blog hops, the team will have a greater presence on the Stampin’ Up! Corporate Facebook Page and their Instagram account as well.
Be sure check out the rest of the team’s fabulous creations on the Stampin’ Up! Corporate Facebook Page at : https://www.facebook.com/stampinup

Today, I’m sharing three projects with the Pretty Perennials Bundle. I’ve also include instructions for each project, so you can scroll to the project that suits your fancy, and…start creating!
Let’s start with the “happy, happy, happy” card…
I started with some Oh So Ombre DSP and adhered it to a Rococco Rose Cardstock base. On top of that I layered some white cardstock, embossed with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder. I then embossed “happy” (from the Pretty Perennials Bundle) three times on the Oh So Ombre DSP, using my Versamark Pad and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I also layered a slightly larger piece of white cardstock underneath, and added the entire panel to the card base.

I used the dies from the Pretty Perennials Bundle, to cut out the leaves and the flower pieces from the Oh So Ombre DSP. (The flower centers were cut from white cardstock.) For a bit of bling, I sprinkled on a few Woven Threads Sequins and Opal Rounds.
Next, up is the “happy” card…
For the card, I started with some white cardstock (embossed with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder), and adhered it to a Rococco Rose Cardstock base. On top of that, I added some white cardstock (cut out with one of the Stitched So Sweetly Dies), layered a piece of Flower & Field DSP on top of that, and another piece of Flower & Field DSP underneath.

I used the dies from the Pretty Perennials Bundle, to cut out the leaves and the flower pieces from Coastal Cabana Cardstock and white cardstock.) The “happy” sentiment (also from the Pretty Perennials Bundle) was created with Gold Leafing, along with Heat & Stick Powder. After I cut out the sentiment with one of the Tasteful Labels Dies, I popped it up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. For some fun texture, I created a bow with the Blushing Bride Metallic Ribbon (cut in half vertically). For a bit of bling, I sprinkled on a several Woven Threads Sequins and a few Gilded Gems.
Last, but certainly not least, is the “birthday” gift tag…
For the tag, I started with some white cardstock, punched the top of the tag with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, and embossed it with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder. I used the dies from the Pretty Perennials Bundle, to cut out the leaves and the flower pieces from Coastal Cabana Cardstock , Rococco Rose Cardstock, and white cardstock.
