Abstract Beauty Card Samples

I think most of us paper crafters share a love of all things paper. From the colorful to the sparkly, to the rich and regals, we all love patterned paper. It’s easy to collect, and it’s easy to hoard.

My newest “love affair” is with Stampin’ Up!’s Abstract Beauty 4 x 6 Specialty Designer Series Paper. Find it on page 49 of Stampin’ Up! January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. (The card above uses leftover scraps from this patterned paper pack.)

It’s a quick and easy card I designed for a recent team meeting. It also uses Stampin’ Up!’s Basic White Note Cards and Envelopes — Twenty precut and prescored cards and envelopes for $7.00. The sentiment comes from the Flowing Flowers stamp set.

I just love the gold accents and the combinations of color. Also, notice the new, unique sizing — 4 x 6.

So far, I’ve purchased three packages of this paper and have used the bulk of it. It was the star of the show at my recent Stampin’ Bunco event. With this paper I created:

  • Three cards to make during the event.
  • Coordinating acetate card box.
  • A treat packet welcome gift. See this post for a video and directions and sample.
  • Decorated bag to hold all of the goodies.

Flowing Flowers Spring Card

Flowing Flowers Spring Card

Spring calls for flowers. The Flowing Flowers stamp set found in Stampin’ Up!’s January-June 2022 Mini Catalog is perfect for a spring-themed card.  I love the flower images but also the sentiments. (However, the sentiment on this card comes from the Timeless Tulips set found in the Annual Catalog. I had to go with the spring theme!)

Flowing Flowers Stamp Set

Here are a few details about this card.

  • Color palette: Mango Melody, Melon Mambo, and Pool Party
  • Randomly stamp images on Basic White card stock in three colors
  • Emboss this piece with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder
  • Layer this on coordinating card stock
  • Tie a bow with the Pool Party 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon
  • Stamp one large flower in Mango Melody and fussy cut with Paper Snips
  • Lightly sponge Mango Melody ink around the flower edges
  • Use dimensionals to pop up the flower on the card front
  • Cover flower with Wink of Stella
  • With a Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Marker, color just the words “Happy Spring” on the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set on a piece of scrap Pool Party card stock. (I just happened to have a scrap piece from the Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper out on my crafting table.)
  • Adhere to the front of the card.
  • Color three Basic Pearls with the Light Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blend and adhere to the front of the card
