Forever Loved, Forever Remembered with Gallery Blooms

 Today I'm using the Gallery Blooms bundle and pairing it with a sentiment stamp set from the 2025-2026 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  My grandson just lost his paternal great-grandmother, and I thought it would be nice to make this card for him and his family members.  Remembrance cards/Sympathy cards are the hardest to make in the moment of loss.  I like to keep some on hand in case I need them.  To see how I've put my card together, you can watch the video replay over on YouTube.



Supplies and Measurements:
Gallery Blooms bundle* 165213 (includes stamps 165211 & dies 165212)
Fancy Borders dies 165380 (can be purchased in a bundle* 165381 with stamps)  
Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper 165175 1 1/4" x 5 1/4"
Cloud Cover cardstock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4" & scrap for sentiment
Basic White cardstock 3" x 5 1/4", scraps for stamping & 3 5/8" x 4 7/8" for inside layer
2025-2027 In Color Stampin' Write markers 165292: Strawberry Slush and Darling Duckling
Stampin' Blends alcohol markers: Peach Pie, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight
Gold Twisted Thread 164603 (last chance list while supplies last)
2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls 165192

Well, that's it for me today.  I hope you have been inspired with the projects this week using Gallery Blooms.  To order your bundle (or any other Stampin' Up! supplies), click on the shopping cart in the upper right.

You’re the Best carved wood & watercoloring technique card

I found another technique I hadn’t heard about before and decided to give it a try.  I watched Gina K Designs show the carved wood technique and thought I really needed to give it a try with some Stampin’ Up!®️ products.  I hadn't used the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder and since it's on the last chance list at a discount, it's the perfect time to grab it if you overlooked it previously.  When I saw this, I thought it would be perfect for wood carving.  Be sure to watch the video tutorial to see all the techniques I shared on this project.  You can see it on my YouTube channel.  





Supplies and Measurements:
Spotlight on Nature stamp set 163579
She's the Greatest stamp set 165439
Something Fancy dies 160424 (last chance & discounted)
Sneak peek alert!  Gallery Blooms dies 165212 (available in the upcoming 2025-2026 Stampin' Up annual catalog.  
Crumb Cake cardstock, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4" 
Crumb Cake cardstock, 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" & 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"
Ink pads: Pecan Pie, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Secret Sea, Old Olive, Stazon black & VersaMark watermark
2025-2027 Stampin' Write marker assortment 165292: Cloud Cover (another sneak peek releasing in May 2025)
2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls 165192 (yet another sneak peek releasing in May 2025)
Water painter or paint brush
Paper Snips 103579 for fussy cutting
Simply Scored tool 122334
die cutting machine

I hope you will give the wood carving technique a try.  It does take a bit of practice to get the ink swiping light enough if you tend to be heavy handed like I am.  But as you can see, it's well worth the little bit of practice.  

Until next time; be happy, stay healthy and happy stamping!
