Celebrate Your Day Card!

 Have you tried out the Stampin' UP! Sponge Brayers yet?  I've used them on lots of backgrounds for my cards recently and I'm so thrilled with them!!!  Find these great crafting tools on page 180 in the 2016 Stampin' UP! catalog or HERE in my online store.

 

Use the new Sponge Brayers from Stampin' UP! to beautifully color the Irresistibly Floral paper! Products available at pattystamps.com

 

To achieve these beautiful, soft results, ink the sponge brayer by rolling it a few times on your Stampin' UP! ink pad then roll it on the Irresistibly Floral paper which already had white glossy patterns on each sheet, and the glossy pattern RESISTS the ink!!  It's like magic!!  Be sure to buff off any excess color with a tissue or paper towel after adding the ink.

I had to ink and apply the ink to the paper about 2 or 3 times, fading out to the right to get lighter results on the right side and darker results on the left.

 I'm working on a video to show you this and other techniques using the Irresistibly Floral paper and lots of fun ways to color it!  The Irresistibly Floral paper is a MUST have product for card makers and crafters!  Find it on page 172 in the Stampin' Up! catalog or #141644 in my online Stampin' Up!

This is the card I came up with using the background above and some lovely floral die cut images from the Flourish Thinlits package (find those on page 194 in the current catalog or #141478 online).

  1. Good morning Patty, Love your card.I just love the floral paper. I have a good bit of the Irresistibly Yours DSP that was in the last catalog, but I love this floral print. You can do soooo much with this paper and it’s so pretty and I like that you can make it any color you want. I just got my goodies Monday and yours last night, so now I’m REALLY ready to play around with them. Thanks for sharing your beautiful card. Have a great day.
