Flower Garden

Probably my favorite part of walking around town in the spring and summer is running across a flower garden. There are so many varieties blooming all around. Every day it’s fun to see what new flowers have started to bloom.

I, personally, have more of a black thumb than a green thumb. The only time I really had a gorgeous, healthy flower garden was the summer I was in the hospital from June 7-September 11 and it was lovingly cared for by someone else. My flowers that year were absolutely stunning. But, that was the one and only time that ever happened. I think the common denominator of all the other flower seasons was the addition of my black thumb.

So, I think I’ll focus more on creating paper flower gardens on cards. Even my black thumb can’t ruin the amazing flower gardens on Stampin’ Up!® Designer Series Paper.

Pink card with rectangle of patterned paper garden with dark pink, yellow, and white flowers. Flowers fussy cut from another piece of the same patterned paper. Flowers added onto garden wth dimensionals. Dark pink geoetric lines stamped above and below patterned paper panel. Butterfly embellisments are added. Sentiment says, "Thinking of you"

Card Details

Want to create a gorgeous flower garden, but have a black thumb of your own? Not sure how to create a gorgeous flower garden on a card, either? I want to turn your crafting stress into success. Stampin’ Up!® has already done all the hard work on their Designer Series Paper. Just choose which flowers you want to add to your card and cut the patterned paper to fit.

I chose to CASE the horizontal card from the inspiration photo for this SUOC CASE the catalog challenge.

Feature a flower garden focal image rectangle on the front of the card. I chose the pattern from the Velvet Meadow DSP and cut a 4″ x 3″ rectangle to add to the card front.
Add flowers to the garden with dimensionals. I chose to fussy cut additional flowers from the same patterned paper and add those for additional dimension.
Add texture to card front both above and below flower garden rectangle. I used a textured stamp from the Gears & Textures stamp set.
Embellishments added the final touch. I used both retired Brushed Brass Butterflies and 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies.

This card was created for the Stampin’ Up!® Only Challenge 402: CASE the catalog page 33. I was inspired by the horizontal card using the Velvet Meadows DSP pattern that is a flower garden. I would love to see what you are inspired to create for SUO Challenge 402. This challenge is open through Sunday, June 7. Please share your creation with us at SUOC402.
