When the Savings are in Bloom was announced, I had no idea how awesome it would prove to be! There are so many bundles on sale, and I LOVE BUNDLES! At 20% off, this is the perfect time to grab those bundles you've been wanting but haven't pulled the trigger to purchase. In addition, the Mini Boss (Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine) is also 20% off. Time to grab this craft table staple!
As a reminder, here are those sale items. Note that the ones that have no stamp sets with them in the photo means they DO have a stamp set with them for this sale period, but is not being sold currently as a bundle in the Annual Catalog. They used to be bundles and are again now for this promotion! All of these bundles and Mini Boss are 20% off through March 31!
The All Squared Away Bundle is one that I have used quite a bit since its release last May. I used it in a Buy & Try class, where we made several cards with it, and on Wednesday during What's Up! Stampers? on Facebook Live, I used it again to make a pretty sweet card. I used the sentiment from the stamp set and made the focal point those dies. Because, you know...they're awesome. I am infatuated with the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper, so I had to us that as a showcase in this card, as well.
I couldn't help myself. I just had to do a short-front card again because I love how easy they are! Cut a portion of the right edge off the card, and there ya have it...and automatic fun fold! See the one I made recently using the For the Record stamp set, too, including a video tutorial.
For this card using All Squared Away, I cut that focal point twice. I cut it in Basic White cardstock then again Soft Succulent. I then cut the leaves and stem out of the frame and adhere it to the white one, knowing it would fit right into place.Next, I cut just the flowers (they are two separate dies that fit RIGHT over the top of the flowers in the square) out of Mango Melody and So Saffron cardstock. I layered a square of the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper behind the floral square to make it look like a sky backdrop.
Sizes of papers are as follows:
So Saffron cardstock:
-7 1/2" x 5 1/2"
-Scrap for small flower die
Mango Melody cardstock:
-3" x 5 1/4"
-Scrap for large flower die
Basic White cardstock:
-2 3/4" x 5"
-Scrap at least 2 1/4" square for the floral die
2 3/4" x 5 1/4" (for the inside of the card)
Soft Succulent cardstock:
-Scrap at least 2 1/4" square for the floral die
Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper:
-4 3/8" x 1" (4 3/8" is so that the Banners Pick a Punch can be used to banner cut the right end)
-1 1/4" x 5 1/2" for the inside right side of the card
1 1/8" x 1 1/8" for the sky
