Fields of Spring Flowers

by
Welcome to the Candy Hearts Blog Hop for March! Today we are sharing projects with a Spring theme. After reading my post, I hope you will hop to the next person on the list below. Be sure to hop around to see ALL the great projects the Candy Hearts have created for you!

When I think of “Spring”, I think of flowers – tulips in particular! Stampin’ Up! has a beautiful suite in the Januaray-June 2022 Mini Catalog called Flowering Fields, and this suite is what I chose to feature today. This card is a Fun Fold called the “Spanner Card”.

Here’s how I made it:

Cut and Score with your Paper Trimmer:

  • Poppy Parade – 8.5″ x 5.5″, scored at 4.25″ on the long side
    • Next cut at 1.25″ from either side on the front of the card base from the bottom up to the scored fold
  • Pumpkin Pie – 1.25″ x 5.5″
  • Basic White – 2 7/8″ x 4″ for inside panel
  • Basic White – .75″ x 2.75″ for the hidden message
  • Flowering Fields DSP Pattern 1 – 2.75″ x 4″
  • Flowering Fields DSP Pattern 2 – 1″ x 5.5″
  • Flowering Fields DSP Pattern 3 – four strips of 1″ x 4″

Die Cut using Stitched So Sweetly Dies:

  • Poppy Parade – the largest scalloped label
  • Pumpkin Pie – the 2nd largest scalloped label

Die Cut using Tulips Dies:

  • Pumpkin Pie – the 3 pieces to make the largest tulip blossom
    • Use you Blending Brush to apply Pumpkin Pie ink through the metal die
  • Daffodil Delight – the 3 pieces to make the 2nd largest tulip blossom
    • Use you Blending Brush to apply Bumblebee ink through the metal die

Stamp Using Flowering Tulips:

  • Using Memento Tuxedo Black, stamp the circular “thank you” sentiment on the Pumpkin Pie label

Stamp Using Through it Together:

  • On the .75″ x 2.75″ piece of Basic White, stamp “sending you this paper hug” in Pumpkin Pie

Assemble the Card:

  • Score the Poppy Parade card base on the score line
  • Adhere Flowering Fields DSP 1 to the middle Poppy Parade panel on the card base
  • Adhere the Flowering Fields DSP 2 to the strip of Pumpkin Pie card stock
  • Adhere the 2 7/8″ x 4 piece of Basic White to the center of the inside of the card
  • Adhere the four strips of 1″ x 4″ pieces of Flowering Fields DSP Pattern 3 to the outside flaps and outer areas of the inside of the card
  • Adhere the strip of Pumpkin Pie to ONLY the outer flaps on the card front; the strip and the 2 flaps will lift open, leaving the middle flap down
  • Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhere the Pumpkin Pie label to the Poppy Parade label, then adhere the combined labels to the Pumpkin Pie strip using Tear & Tape or liquid glue
  • On the middle flap (with Flowering Fields DSP 1), adhere the .75″ x 2.75″ stamped piece f Basic White so that it will be covered by the labels and Pumpkin Pie strip
  • Adhere the two tulip blossoms to the right side of the card front
  • Finally, add 3 of the Brushed Brass Butterflies randomly to the card front
