Stampin’ Up! Countryside Inn Sneak Peek Birthday Card with Video Tutorial

Good morning and Happy Easter!  Hope you’ll have the chance to spend today with family and friends! I appreciate that you’re taking time to read my post today – so, I won’t take up too much of your day! 🙂

I’ve got another sneak peek for you from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog  – available for ordering on 2 May! – and it’s one of my faves!  It’s the the Countryside Inn suite – anchored by the Countryside Corners bundle and STUNNING Countryside Inn DSP – plus the Lasting Joy set – which coordinates with the suite and brings the sentiments to the party!  Take a look-see:

This one is a CASE of a sample that you’ll see in the catalog! 🙂

I started with a piece of the Countryside Inn DSP that I matted on Misty Moonlight cardstock (I am SO happy Misty is BACK!) for the card front.

Tell me that DSP isn’t just…amazeballs!?!

On a piece of Boho Blue cardstock, I stamped the large single image from the Countryside Corners in Boho Blue ink.

Then, using the largest die in the bundled Countryside Corners Die set – I cut out the entire image.

Then I adhered it to the card front with Liquid Glue.

I stamped the big image again – this time in Versamark Ink – on a piece of Basic White cardstock, then I sprinkled it with gold Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool.

When the powder was cool, I used two consecutive Countryside Corners dies to cut out the flower “ring” near the center of the image. I set the rest of the embossed image aside for another project – and adhered the die cut into place with Liquid Glue.

I took a Textural Element and, using my Paper Snips, cut off the bottom of the “branch” – saving it to use on the project later.  I adhered the remainder of the Element with Liquid Glue.

I tied a simple bow with a piece of Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine and adhered it with a Glue Dot.

On a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock, I stamped a pretty sentiment from the Lasting Joy set…

…in Versamark ink, sprinkled it with white Embossing Powder and heat set it.

When it was cool, I cut it out with the stand-alone die in the Stitched Rectangles Die set (y’all – you can’t get a lot of these goodies until 2 May – but you CAN – AND SHOULD! – get the Stitched Rectangles Dies right now before they’re gone forever!

Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, I adhered the sentiment over the bow and Textural Element.

Then, using Liquid Glue, I adhered that little piece of stem that I’d cut off earlier – tucking it under the sentiment to make the Element look longer!

I adhered a Brushed Brass Butterfly and the card front was done!

On the inside, I stamped a second Lasting Joy sentiment in Boho Blue on a Basic White panel.  Then I stamped flowers in Boho Blue and little stems and leaves in Crumb Cake.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and into my Boho Blue card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Basic White Medium Envelope got more Lasting Joy flowers and stems on the front…

…and more of the Countryside Inn DSP on the envelope flap!

Et Voila!  Well?  What think you??  The Countryside Inn Suite – with the Countryside Corners bundle and gorgeous Countryside Inn DSP – is truly stunning in Boho Blue, Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy and Balmy Blue!  And with sentiments and flowers from Lasting Joy and – yep, this one is going to be a WINNER!

I hope you like!
