Welcome to another Crafty Collaborators blog hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around the world. Each month we will be showcasing some of the wonderful products which can found in our suite of catalogues. Today’s Monthly hop is called Share it Sunday where we will be sharing a recent project. I have been playing with the Wrapped Bouquet Bundle recently on a Facebook live so thought it would be fun to share.

As soon as I saw this bundle it went straight into my basket. The pretty delicate flowers and the cute wrapped dies are quite different to anything else I have ever seen.

This bundle was the perfect choice for my 100th Facebook lives and once I started using it I just couldn’t stop!

I started running my twice weekly Connect-Craft-Chat Facebook lives at the start of the UK lockdown last year to enable me to keep in touch with my customers and provide a little entertainment whilst we were all sat at home. They have now become a regular feature and I just love them.

Three ways with the Wrapped Bouquet

So these are the cards I made. I just love the pretty colours and the font in the stamp set.

Three ways with Wrapped Bouquet – Mothers Day card

For my first card I made a Mothers day Card. We celebrate Mothering Sunday in the UK in mid March so it was perfect timing

How I made this card

• Take a base card of Bermuda Bay (29.7 cm by 10.5 cm), score & burnish at 14.9 cm to create a card base.
• Add a piece of Basic White card (14.3 cm by 10.0 cm which has been embossed using the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.
• Cut a piece of Petal Pink Card using the Stitched so Sweetly Dies.
• Wrap a piece of Organdy ribbon around some Bermuda Bay 6″by 6″ DSP (10.0 cm by 5.0 cm) and tie in a bow
• Cut a piece of Basic White card with the Stitched Nested Dies (sadly about to retire) and stamp the sentiment in Calypso Coral.
• Attach to the base card using Dimensionals
• Stamp the bunch of flowers in Memento Ink and colour with Stampin Blends.
• Die cut using the coordinating Die from the bundle and attach with Dimensionals
• Finish with some elegant Faceted Gems

Three ways with Wrapped Bouquet – Love You bunches

For my next card I made a pretty card for my stash. I love to have ‘grab & go’ cards which I can adapt for cards in a hurry and I think this one fits the bill.

How I made this card

• Create a base card of Petal Pink (29.7 cm by 10.5 cm), score & burnish at 14.9 cm
• Take a piece of Basic White card (14.3 cm by 10.0 cm) and add some petal pink ink with a Blending Brush
• Stamp the newsprint in Calypso Coral Ink and the sentiment in Bermuda Bay
• Attach to the card using glue
• Stamp the bunch of flowers in Memento Ink die cut using the coordinating dies and colour with Stampin Blends.
• Die cut some Bermuda Bay 6″by 6″ DSP (10.0 cm by 5.0 cm) to create the wrapping and attach to the flowers
• Add the the card using Dimensionals
• Die cut some of the pretty leaves in Old Olive card and add the bouquet
• Finish with some elegant Faceted Gems

Three ways with Wrapped Bouquet – Thanks Friend

For my last card I wanted to make a card for a friend who had been going through a bit of a tough time and thought some happy mail would brighten her day.

How I made this card

• Create a base card of Petal Pink (29.7 cm by 10.5 cm), score & burnish at 14.9 cm
• Add a piece of Basic White card (14.3 cm by 10.0 cm which has been embossed using the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder.
• Take two scraps of the Bermuda Bay 6″by 6″ DSP (12.9 cm by 2.0 cm) to create some fun strips. (I used the reverse side of the same piece of paper I used for the other cards)
• Use Stampin’ Write Markers to colour the stamp, ‘ huff’ to reactivate the ink and stamp onto a piece of Basic White Card.
• Die cut using the coordinating die from the bundle and add to the card base using Dimensionals
• Stamp the ‘for you’ sentiment in Calypso Coral Ink then die cut using the tiny tag die
• Add a small bow of linen twine then attach to the card using a mini glue dot
• Use the Banners Pick a punch to create two banners one in Petal Pink and another in Basic white
• Stamp the sentiment in Calypso Coral and wrap a little more linen twine around the banner before attaching to the card
• Finish with some elegant Faceted Gems

Its always fun to combine a card with a handmade gift so I made some fudge this weekend for my nephews girlfriend. She loved it!
