Sunshine & Tulips and Birthday Blitz Sign Up

This is such a fantabulous stamp/die bundle! And so easy to use! Sunshine & Tulips is a stamp and die bundle that you’ll want on your wish list! The large die cuts out the 12 tulips and easily a pretty spring color of cardstock can be put behind the open tulips. I love using Adhesive Strips to elevate the die cut tulips!

Tips to create this card:

  • Die cut using the tulip die on a piece of Basic White Cardstock measuring 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” ***love the little stitching around the edges!!!

  • Use the leaf stamp and Granny Apple Green ink to stamp on top of the die cut leaves. You will see in one of the pictures that the leaves are partially die cut so they can be lifted after you stamp them

  • Next, attach Adhesive Strips on the back side of your die cut/stamped tulips. Attach the Adhesive Strips across the top, bottom, sides, and in the middle where there is solid card stock and no opening.

  • Attach the adhesive strips to a piece of red or yellow or pink or your favorite color of tulips piece of cardstock measuring 3 3/4” x 5”

  • Finally attach both layers with your favorite adhesive to a card base cut 8 1/2” x 5 1/2”; scored at 4 1/4”

  • And embellish as you like

Here is another version of this card….we used 1” squares of different color cardstock for this card.

  • Place the die cut tulip piece over a piece of Basic White cardstock measuring 3 3/4” x 5” and using a pencil or pen, place a dot in the middle of the die cut opening for each tulip.

  • Remove die cut and adhere a 1” square piece of cardstock over each dot

  • Continue with stamping leaves and using Adhesive Strips on the back of die cut tulip piece

And here is a stepped up version card using the Sunshine & Tulips stamp and die bundle

this card make me think of those frilly tulips on the cover of Holland Bulb company catalogs with the multicolored tulips I was in awe of! We splattered Flirty Flamingo ink on to Vellum and put behind the die cut tulips. Then back the vellum with a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock.

You can now order Vellum. Item #167099. It comes in a package of 10 sheets of 12 x 12.
