Petal Park Bundle for Spring
For me, spring says flowers. And, when it comes, to flowers, Stampin’ Up! offers an awesome variety of flower-themed stamps, patterned paper, and coordinating dies and punches. I chose to showcase the Petal Park Bundle (Petal Park Stamp Set and Petal Park Builder Punch — buy them together and save 10 percent) and the coordinating Regency Park 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. Find these paper crafting products beginning on page 30 of Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. I also designed this card with a different opening. (See the photo below.)
Here are a few details about this card:
Mango Melody base measures 5/12″ x 4 1/4″
Regency Park Designer Series Paper measures 5 1/4″ x 4″
Mango Melody for front measures 9 1/2″ x 2 3/4″ and is scored at 4 3/4″ to make a “mini” card that attaches to card front
Two pieces of Basic White measure 4 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ and one 3/4″ x 4 1/4 for the sentiment

With Stamin’ Dimensionals, add the sentiment to the card front, straddling the ribbon, snuggling the left side near the bow.
Add the punched flowers to the top left and bottom right of the sentiment with Glue Dots as shown above.
Using the Take Your Pick Tool, add the Night of Navy and Petal Pink Adhesive-Backed Milky Dot gems to the flower centers.
Glue the white cardstock to the inside of the card.

Hello, and welcome to the Stampers’ Dozen monthly blog hop. This month, we’re sharing handmade paper crafting projects created with bundles from Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2023 Mini Catalog. Be sure to visit all of the stamping blogs and be inspired. This spring catalog offers so many great products, and you’ll see some of them featured throughout the hop created by talented stampers.
Today, I use the Petal Park Bundle (Petal Park stamp set and coordinating Petal Park Builder Punch) to create a fun fold thank-you card.
Petal Park Fun Fold
From the front, this card looks like a “regular” card. But it’s really a Z fold. Look below to see how it opens.
Here are a few details and measurements.
Night of Navy base measures 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
Regency Park Designer Series Paper measures 5 1/4″ x 4″
Z fold portion measures 9 3/4″ x 4 1/4″. Score at 3 1/4″ and 6 1/2″
Basic White panels measure 4″ x 3″
Extra Regency Park Designer Series Paper measures 4″ x 3″
In addition, I used the thank you sentiment from the Beautifully Happy Stamp Set (earn this set free with a $100 purchase during Stampin’ Up!’s SaleABration promotion) and Mango Melody colored gems from the Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots.
The Petal Park stamp set features the two-step stamping technique. This means it takes two stamps to create the images. But the photopolymer design (see-through stamps) make it easy to line up the images. Be sure to watch the video below to get step-by-step instructions to see how this card comes together. Use a Stampin’ Pierce Mat to ensure you get a nice stamped image.
