Tips For Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape & Dies

May 22, 2025

Today I'm sharing tips for using the new Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape from the 2025-2026 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

The key to this card is to start with the largest flower in the center, working out towards the edges filling with in leaves and more flowers.

How'd She DO That? Extraordinary Flora Washi Congrats card

Stamps/Bundles: Extraordinary Flora Bundle (includes dies)
Paper:
- Basic White Thick (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
- Basic White (4" x 5-1/4" for Washi Tape, 2" x 4-1/4" add texture with Garden Embossing Folder)
Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento
Other: Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Online Exclusive Glass & Garden Embossing Folders, Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape, Linen Thread, Stampin' Seal, Glue Dots & Mini Stampin' Dimensionals

See below for Tips on using the new Extraordinary Floral Washi Tape:

The Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape is big, bright, and beautiful! It’s 3-1/4" wide and features a gorgeous pattern of watercolor florals and botanical images. The design alternates from pink and purple variations of the same pattern for more versatility!

1 roll, 3-1/4" x 10 yards
Color Coordination: Berry Burst, Coastal Cabana, Darling Duckling, Flirty Flamingo, Lost Lagoon, Old Olive, Petunia Pop, Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce, Strawberry Slush
Coordinates with Extraordinary Flora Bundle (stamp & dies)

DOstamping Tips:

Start with a 4" x 5-1/2" of neutral or lighter colored cardstock (ie: white, vanilla, maybe even some of our subtle colors, window sheets or vellum could work)
Apply Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape to cardstock piece by rolling onto the piece until your reach the next section. Use Paper Snips to cut off section.
- NOTE: sections are "marked" by alternate patterns of pink and purple
Use Bone Folder to smooth out any wrinkles in the washi tape.
To die cut, line up images with the Extraordinary Flora Die.
Viola! With one pass you get 16 die cut shapes!

Two for Tuesday: Cheers to the Year with You've Got Style

December 26, 2017

It's Two For Tuesday (TFT) and I'm sharing two cards using the You've Got Style and soon-to-be-retired Cheers to the Year and Year of Cheer Suite coordinating products.

Whether for a wedding, new year's greetings, or the holiday season—this set does it all with style! And when you pair it with the You've Got Style stamp set (from the 2017-18 Annual catalog) - you've got double the style!

How'd She DO That tips for You've Got Style Cheers card:

- Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper (4-1/4" x 3-1/4")

Tips:
1. The key to any embossing - Embossing Buddy [103083]
2. To avoid seeing the DSP through the Washi Tape, add it onto a strip of paper before applying it to the card.
Shopping Links: See below for a full supply list with links to shop online.

NOTE: Cheers to the Years stamp set and coordinating products are last-chance items and are only available while supplies last. After January 2, 2018, it will no longer be available. Be sure to add it to your shopping bag today!

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #245: Country Livin' Guitar!

August 23, 2017

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we're having a "Home Sweet Home" challenge.

Stampin' Up!'s Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack was a perfect choice for this week's photo inspiration challenge. It's paired with the guitar image from the Country Livin' stamp set. Plus is bursting with copper accents! Take a look...

Country Livin' Guitar card

Stamp greeting (from Better Together stamp set) with Versamark ink on 4" x 5-1/2" panel of Very Vanilla. Cover with Copper Stampin' Emboss Powder. Remove excess and melt with Heat tool.
Apply Year of Cheer Washi Tape (coming 9/1) to left edge of panel. Adhere panel to folded 11" x 4-1/4" Thick Very Vanilla card base.
Die cut three Stitched Shapes Framelits circles (1-7/8")
1. Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack
2. Very Vanilla cardstock = stamped with Sheet Music background stamp using Archival Basic Black ink
3. Copper Foil = run through Big Shot with Oh My Stars Texture Impressions Embossing Folder
Arrange all 3 circles on card front. Before adhering, loop Copper Thread around four fingers 3 to 4 times. Remove and pinch together in the middle and adhere to card with SNAIL adhesive. Then adhere circles.
Stamp guitar image (from Country Livin' stamp set) with Archival Basic Black ink on lighter wood tone piece from Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack. Use Paper Snips to cut out. Then adhere to card with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals
Adhere Metallic Sequins (copper) with Fine Tip Glue Pen

I'm giddy with the way this card turned out. If you have a guitar player or musician in your life...I'm sure they would be delighted to receive a card like this.

Give Country Livin' a try! The Sheet Music background stamp is the perfect match as well. Be sure to add both to your Shopping Bag!
