In this month’s ZOOM card class, one of the cards for participants features the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper. Specifically, the Forever Greenery Leaves page. So, aptly the card is named to reflect the paper used! (LOL )In addition, the Forever Fern Bundle and the Gold Hoops Embellishments combine to embellish the card front. The card itself is a simple stamping card so appropriate for any level of card maker.
Materials for the Forever Greenery Leaves card:
Base: Just Jade cardstock: 4-1/4” x 11”, score at 5-1/2” and fold; 1” x 3” scrap
Very Vanilla cardstock: 5-1/2” x 3-1/8”; 2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper (DSP): 5-1/2” x 3”
2” Circle Punch
Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad
Forever Fern Stamp Set
Forever Flourishing Dies
Gold Hoops Embellishments
Gold Metallic Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack
Stampin’ Seal
Stampin’ Dimensionals
Mini Glue Dots
Card Directions:
First, add the Forever Greenery DSP to the Very Vanilla cardstock. Then add the layered Very Vanilla cardstock to the Just Jade card base.
Stamp sentiment onto the small square of Very Vanilla cardstock and cut using the 2” Circle Punch.
With the leaf die, cut the shape from a scrap of Just Jade cardstock.
Add the sentiment label to the front of the card.
Put adhesive onto the Gold Hoop and layer over the sentiment label. NOTE: there will be a very small space between the gold hoop and the label so try to add the gold hoop so the label is in the center.
Attach the Just Jade leaves to the gold hoop using mini glue dots.
Tie a small bow with the Gold Metallic Trim & add to the leaves with a mini glue dot.

Have you taken note that I enjoy using the various products in the Flowers for Every Season Suite Collection? I just realized that my past few posts have incorporated items from the suite. So of course, today’s post is no different! I’m loving the versatility of the product suite. It provides the ability to combine the different elements to create a variety of cards. Today’s card uses the Flowers for Every Season Memories & More Card Pack, as well as, a piece of the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper.
Here are some of the card details:
The front of the card base is texture embossed using the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. The floral print layer is from the Flowers for Every Season Memories & More Card Pack. The 1-1/4″ strip is a piece of the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper. After stamping and cutting the sentiment layer, add a few sprigs of leaves from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Designer Series Paper to the label. Finally, complete by embellishing with a small bow.
The design is the from the weekly design challenge for the Playtime with Paper team. Each week, I select a design or color challenge for the team to use. Below is this week’s challenge from the Sunday Stamps Blog.
In addition to my take on the design, I am including a card created by Playtime with Paper team member, Linda Edwards of Crafty Heron Designs. Linda’s card features the Forever Greenery Suite Collection. Isn’t her card stunning?

While waiting for delivery of my new product order, I continue to create cards using the items from my preorder. One of the suites demonstrators could order early is the Flowers for Every Season Suite. The suite is full of products that coordinate. For today’s Celebrate with Sunflowers card, the Flowers for Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper provides a beautiful floral base for the sentiment. With the colorful designs in the paper, it makes it easy to create beautiful cards. The designer series paper design incorporates the new 2020-2022 In Colors, so I used the coordinating cardstock for the card. The sentiment and leaf embellishments are in the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle which is also part of the Flowers for Every Season Suite.
Card Details:
Card base: Cut Cinnamon Cider cardstock 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, score at 4-1/4″ and fold.
First Layer: Bumblebee cardstock cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″. Attach to the Cinnamon Cider cardstock card base.
Cut the sunflower print from the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series paper to 5″ x 3-3/4″. Adhere to the Bumblebee cardstock layer.
Stamp the sentiment from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set on the center of a 1-1/2″ x 4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad. Cut using the Stitched Rectangles Dies.
Using the Sunflowers Dies, cut 2 of the large leaves and the coordinating leaf veins from Just Jade cardstock. Assemble the leaves by adding the veins to the coordinating leaf. TIP: Use the Adhesive Sheets for the leaf veins. This makes it easy to attach to the coordinating leaf base.
Add the leaves to the back of the sentiment label with adhesive and then attach the label to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Tie a small bow using the Bumblebee In Color 1/4″ Ribbon and add to the side of the sentiment label.
Embellish the label using the Cinnamon Cider Enamel Dots from the 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots collection.
Under the Project Materials section, you’ll find links to the products used for this card. You can purchase the entire Flowers for Every Season Suite or just the individual components that you prefer.

The new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog from Stampin’ Up! is now “live” and available for product ordering. There are many beautiful new stamp sets, stamp bundles, embellishments and tools available. Plus, the five new In Colors! It’s difficult to decide which items to focus on first. In a couple of my recent posts, I have been able to share a few of the products from my preorder. Today, I am sharing a Stampin’ Up! video that showcases the new Peony Garden Suite. This suite was the first to catch my eye when I was able to preview the catalog. It was not available for preorder so it was placed at the top of my wish list. Once catalog ordering became available on Wednesday, I placed my order with the Peony Garden Suite the first item entered. Like a kid at the holidays, I’m anxiously awaiting delivery!
Check out this beautiful suite of products below…
Isn’t this a beautiful product suite? I can’t decide which is my favorite – the Prized Peony Bundle, the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper or the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder! Under Project Materials is the link for the full suite and links for each individual product in the suite.
Fingers Crossed: My order is due for delivery on Monday, so stay tuned. Later next week, I will be featuring products from the Peony Garden Suite.
Check back on Monday as I’ll be sharing a project featuring other new products. Thanks for stopping by today and have a great weekend.

My product preorder recently arrived and I’m loving the new products. So I thought I would give you a sneak peak at one of my favorites, the Forever Greenery Suite. Today’s card uses several products from the Forever Greenery Suite – the Forever Fern Bundle and the gorgeous Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper. The catalog photos of the designer series paper are nice but just wait until you actually see the paper. The colors are deep and vibrant so you’ll be able to create a variety of beautiful “wow” projects. The card below is a simple card that highlights a couple prints from the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper.
Card Details:
For base: use a 4-1/4″ x 11″ piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock, then score at 5-1/2″ and fold to create the base.
Select coordinating prints from the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper (DSP). Cut the first layer of DSP to 5″ x 3-3/4″ and attach to the card base front. Cut the second layer of DSP to 4-1/2″ x 3-1/4″. Adhere to the first layer of DSP on the card front.
Using the Forever Fern Stamp Set, stamp the berry stem onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using Pretty Peacock Classic Ink Pad. Stamp the two sets of medium leaves using Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink Pad onto Whisper White cardstock. Cut the shapes using the coordinating Forever Flourishing Dies.
On a 2″ square of Whisper White cardstock, stamp the sentiment using the Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink Pad. With the Stitched Shapes Dies, cut the stitched circle so that the sentiment is toward the right side of the circle (refer to card photo).
Add the leaves to the back of the sentiment circle using mini glue dots. Then attach the berries by offsetting by the sentiment.
Complete the card by adding the sentiment layer to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Per Stampin’ Up! regulations, demonstrators are not able to post photos from the upcoming Annual Catalog until June 3. But once the catalog is released, I’ll be able to share videos with you that showcase the various bundles and other products. You’ll find the list of products for this project under the Project Materials section below. NOTE: the Forever Greenery products are not available for purchase until June 3, 2020. Just be sure to add the Forever Greenery Suite to your wish list!
