All Star Tutorial Blog Hop Dec 2020 – Artistry Blooms
Welcome to our All Star Tutorial blog hop! Did you get your hands on this month’s set of tutorials featuring the Artistry Blooms Suite?These tutorials are designed by twelve Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world. They are exclusive to those who earn them or purchase them. And they are complete with photos, video directions, supply lists, and both imperial and metric measurements.
Here are peeks of the fantastic projects in our December bundle focusing on the Artistry Blooms Suite.
(Click here to find information for how to get your hands on this month’s compilation.)
And here is a larger peek of the project tutorial I contributed.
Our hop today will give you MORE ideas than what we are offering in our bundle. See what I have to share. Then to follow the hop and see other creative project ideas featuring the Artistry Blooms Suite, simply scroll down and click on the names of other hop participants in our tutorial team.

Have you seen the popular split circle technique yet? I’ve been having fun with it and thought I’d share it using the fun glitter paper in this suite. The two cards that I came up with are similar in many ways (the layout, the colors, the fun look with the circles), but one is a pocket card featuring more of the Artistry Blooms products. And the other I made with the goal of sharing a Happy New Year’s card idea with you and uses images from two other sets of dies and another stamp set.
I just showed live on YouTube about four hours ago step-by-step directions for creating these cards. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).

And on January 5th it will be available to everyone! So keep that in mind when planning your wish lists and purchases.

Today Is a Cocktails Kind of Day
Not really… 😉 But what a fun card to give to someone when the occasion DOES call for cocktails (or at least a bit of celebrating).
The Nothing’s Better Than Stamp Set and the coordinating Love You More Than Dies are so much fun! And if you are not into cocktails, you could trade that word and image out for either cookies, coffee, or chocolate.
Here are the details if you want to recreate this card yourself.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
- Basic Black Cardstock
- 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
- 2” x 8-1/2” scored parallel to the short end at just a bit over 5-1/4”
- 2-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Balmy Blue Cardstock
- 4” x 5-1/4”
- 2-1/4″ x 2-3/4″
- In Good Taste Designer Paper
- 3-7/8” x 5-1/8”
- Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper
- 2” x 5-1/4”
- Scrap for die-cutting word
Directions…
- Add a small bit of Adhesive Sheet behind the scrap of glimmer paper, then die-cut word. Adhere to the small Basic Black piece as shown – with a bit of a curve. Stamp top sentiment image with VersaMark Ink. Carefully add Silver Emboss Powder, tap off excess, and heat with Heat Tool. Repeat with the lower sentiment image. Add the Rhinestone and set aside.
- Stamp the other images on the Balmy Blue piece with Tuxedo Black and VersaMark Inks. Add the Rhinestone and set aside.
- Connect the smaller portion of the folded Basic Black “flap fold” piece to the back of the Balmy Blue piece so the flap is coming over the top. Adhere to the Basic Black layer. Then adhere the designer paper piece on top of the Balmy Blue.
- Next add the stamped Balmy Blue piece to the inside of the card (on the designer paper) as shown.
- Fold the flap shut. Add the glimmer paper, then add the stamped Basic Black piece using Multipurpose Liquid Glue so it is covering the Balmy Blue piece underneath.
I think I need to make a few other versions of this card now. It was so fun to make!
