Creation Station Blog Hop 'Bloomin' Love'

Hello and welcome to the February Creation Station Blog Hop! You may have started with me?, or have hopped on over from Julie, or back from Jen. Just make sure you hop all around to visit the other fabulous Design Team Members. 
(The links are at the bottom of my blog post). 
And we have a brand new logo! Isn't is divine? Thanks to Cindy, Jen & Dena for their combined effort. Love it!


This month we are celebrating all things 'LOVE' and I have used the 'Bloomin' Love' Bundle and the 'Love Blossoms' Suite to make my LOVE creations for Valentines Day. But, this lovely lot is so versatile - think Weddings/Engagements/Anniversaries... and the Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper is the prettiest and sparkliest - it is a MUST for your stash!

I have made some sweet notecards in Blushing Bride, Rose Red & Whisper White. The Bloomin' Hearts Thinlits Die is the most beautiful die, and I wanted to leave it quite simple to showcase the intricate details. I added the die cut flowers and some Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper to the centre of the flowers.

Inside... I used Stampin' Write Markers to colour the Banner and Sentiment, and tiny strips of Love Blossoms DSP Stack & Blushing Bride Glimmer to finish.

My Rose Red version, and some Basic Pearls added to the centre of the flowers for a pretty, vintage feel. I love the simple matting of the Blushing Bride & Rose Red cardstock too. 

A very simple bannered sentiment for the inside of my Rose Red notecard.

These are Gift Card Holders using the Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack - I am loving the combination of Blushing Bride & Crumb Cake! There are 48 sheets of this beautiful patterned 2 sided paper measuring 6"x6", and these holders are so easy to make. And not forgetting the Glimmer Paper. Swoon...

(I hope to have a photo tutorial for the Gift Card Holders for you soon - so make sure you are Subscribed to my blog so you can receive email updates and you don't miss out.)

I loved the way the Blushing Bride Glimmer heart turned out. It had to be in a frame, lifted by Stampin' Dimensionals and nothing else.

...it's in the air

I changed up the colour palette and used my favourite colours; Pool Party & Crumb Cake with some Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper for the required bling! I love how these notecards turned out.

A close up of the intricate details and the gorgeous Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. So dazzling!

NEWSFLASH!!! There is a brand new product in the Occasions Catalogue called the Big Shot Die Brush. It is the best thing ever, and it helps remove the paper from intricate dies without tearing the paper. See photos below:

*A big THANKYOU shoutout to my gorgeous Upline, Karen. If it wasn't for Karen, I would not be here! A few weeks ago I went to Karen's where I borrowed her products for my blog hop. I didn't have the Bloomin' Love Bundle, and I wanted to get cracking for this blog post. I am so lucky to have a wonderful and supportive Upline. That's what Stampin' Up! is all about.
