Here's a modern spin on one of the new single stamps, Hello Blossoms, from the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog. It's highlighted by this week's Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge (PPA92), a powerful color combination of Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait and Poppy Parade.
Check out the PPA Design Team card ideas this week along with a fabulous contribution from our Celebrity Guest Stamper Colleen Dietrich.
Need a fun new way to use the Petal Card Punch? My friend Kadie Labadie turned me on to the idea above, which I demonstrate in today's 1 Minute to "WOW" Video Tutorial. However, she says she can't take credit. Like many of us, she saw it on the internet but isn't 100% sure where.
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
The look of the same polka dot designer series paper pattern in different colors is so splashy and clean. - I'm digging the Pretty Postage rubber stamp set and Postage Stamp Punch from the Summer Mini Catalog.
- I popped only the two large Poppy Parade circles up on Stampin' Dimensionals for a staggered "garden" effect.
- The flower stems were isolated using my Pear Pizzazz Stampin' Write Marker.
IT'S ABOUT TIME! My new on-line video class is in the works and will be available starting next week. Stay tuned. Hint: Flower Fest stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalog will be the star of the show!
NEW VIDEO TOMORROW! I'll be giving a video demonstration of one of my favorite new tools from the Summer Mini Catalog. Follow me on Twitter and you can watch NOW!

Mary, I like those punched flowers, and saw a cute, sassy dress like it on a little girl at church. Her dress brought to mind your card! THanks for having me as your PPA Guest this week. It truly was an honor. 🙂
Cute, cute, cute. Love the bright colors. Eye poppin’.
Mary- This is such a cute card. I just love the way you did the flowers and I love the colors you chose. Thanks for sharing:)
Another outstanding creation, Mary! I love it! Love the color trio in patterned paper used together as the background! So fun and cheerful!
As always, I love your take on this stamp! Perfectly cute card!
Love what you did to the flowers! Then, your video was wonderful and what a fun holder! You are so right about pushing on the circle part of the punch – I made 20 boxes – all of the fold lines were A-ok! I found the cutest little tiny fuzzy chick to fit in the boxes and they were a hit! Thanks for sharing your talent with us, Mary!
So very pretty, Mary! I need this stamp set soon.
