Stampin' Up! Beautifully Happy Mini Slim Line Card

Hello and welcome to my blog; this week I am showcasing the Beautifully Happy Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!. All week long I will be sharing projects featuring this fabulous two stamp Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set.

Beautifully Happy:

With the Beautifully Happy Stamp Set you can create beautiful floral themed projects. With this all-occasion stamp set which features floral designs as well as greetings that can be used on their own or paired together for more versatility all year long! You can combine the stamp pieces of the hollyhocks for a Two-step effect or create a soft and subtle individual colored floral background using your favorite coloring tools. The Beautifully Happy Stamp Set allows you to send happy thoughts, share friendly notes, or wish happy birthday through your own floral style!

This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colors you want. It is also a Distinktive stamp set; the stamps have a special texture that gives added depth and dimension in a single step, creating photo-realistic images.

Mini Slim Line Card:

My card today is a mini slim line card; but it's not your normal mini slim line card. It's a top folding mini slim line card. Which is surprisingly not as hard as you may think. You just have to piecemeal it together. This is due to the fact that normal cardstock isn't long enough. To create a top folding mini slim line card you will need one sheet of cardstock that measures 3 1/2" x 6" (back panel) and one that measures 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" scored at 1/2" (this is the front panel.).

I created mine out of two pieces of Pool Party Cardstock. You will then put it together by adding a strong adhesive adhesive to the inside of the 1/2" flap. I used Stampin' Seal+ to adhere the front to the back panel. I then used a couple pieces of the Fancy Floral Designer Series Paper. One for the background panel which was attached to a piece of Basic White Cardstock as the mat layer. Then I used a contrasting piece to die cut floral images from using the Forever Flourishing Dies.

To finish off the card I added the stamped image which I used the layering images to color the flowers. I then fussy cut it out using my Paper Snips. I attached it to the card with a little Fine Tip Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals, and Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. I then added a bow made from Fresh Freesia 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon with a Mini Glue Dot. The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of Basic White Cardstock. The sentiment was stamped in Pool Party Ink and the Bee was stamped three times in Tuxedo Black Ink and filled in with Daffodil Delight Ink.

I then added a few of the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds. Thanks for dropping by today. If you need any of the supplies that you have seen today you can pick them up in my online store by clicking on the items below in the shopping list.
