Today the Crafty Collaborations team is showing you anything we would like in hopes of inspiring you to create! This Flowering Tulips Sympathy card is one of my latest creations. I am in love with the Flowering Fields patterned paper pack and can’t wait til my next package arrives- that will make it so much easier to cut the few pieces I have left. The Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent, Pumpkin Pie, and Pale Papaya combination of colors is one of my favorite.
This card is a Diamond Gate Fold and I’ve been a bit hooked on them lately. They look beautiful, display nicely, and are easy to make! You can read all about making one here. The papers are different but everything but the tulips are the same.
Don’t be intimidated by the Tulips Dies. They were easy to put together. Here’s what you need to know- just cut one of everything. Stampin’ Up! gives you enough dies to run this all through at once. NOTE: I used Pale Papaya card stock and added some Mango Melody ink to it with my blending brushes before die cutting.
After die cutting, I folded each piece on the left on the score lines. The pieces to the right were placed “inside” the folded piece and adhered with a dab of glue. Easy Peasy! Next I cut two stems and two leaves. I built my flowers and adhered it all to a 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ square of Soft Succulent card stock. The square was just adhered on the left side so the card could open.
My sentiment, from the Special Moments stamp set, was stamped with Evening Evergreen on a scrap of Pale Papaya and die cut with the second smallest Stitched So Sweetly die. I added a 5″ x 3 1/2″ piece of Pale Papaya card stock to the center panel and called it a card! I really hope you will give this a try.

Symbols of Fortune stamp camp
Please join me and 12 talented Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world for an amazing Stamp Camp experience. This Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp will feature the softly colored and shimmery suite of products. You can see each of the items here:
This Stamp Camp includes a card kit to make 12 cards…one designed by each of the demonstrators on the Creativity Abounds team. In this card kit you will get the card bases and any pieces of card stock needed to make the card. If a die other than the ones included in the Crane of Fortune Bundle is used, it will be cut for you. Envelopes are included as well.
You will use your Symbols of Fortune patterned paper, Crane of Fortune Bundle, Soft Succulent Satin Shimmer ribbon, Polished Dots, and inks and adhesives.
This kit will come with an emailed written tutorial for each card as well as “unlisted” videos to show you how to make the cards.
On April 29 -30 , 2022, you will be part of an exclusive Facebook Group where we will have 12 LIVE presentations showing another project made with the suite. As the group is international, some LIVES will be at less convenient times, but they will all be recorded in the FaceBook group and you will have access to them forever. You are invited to post your cards, comment and play along with challenges in this exclusive group as well.
The only fee to participate in this Stamp Camp is purchase through me of the Symbols of Fortune Suite (item #157667- and all the products are included with this one number). If you already own these products, please substitute any other $82.75 (before shipping and tax) of products. Please use the link below as it includes my HOST CODE (3Z2Q2CK2).
.
You can order by clicking on this link: SHOP WITH CHATNCRAFT WITH LORRAINE and this will input the host code for you automatically. I will be notified of your purchase and will enroll you in Stamp Camp. Please be sure to order as soon as possible to ensure that nothing becomes unavailable!
NOTE: The Symbols of Fortune Suite is not available at this time because the Polished Dots are on backorder. You can participate in the Stamp Camp if you order all of the items individually (you’ll still save 10% on the Stamp & Die bundle) and add a different embellishment such as Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels. Please use the HOST CODE 3Z2Q2CK2.
About a week before Stamp Camp you will receive your card kit in the mail. Then a few days before the Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp starts, you will receive an invitation to join the exclusive Facebook group.
