Poppy Moments Make Stunning Projects!!

July 16, 2021January 7, 2020

Wow! I LOVE these beautiful Poppy Moments dies! I'm excited to share them with you today. I have a free PDF tutorial for you and a video where I walk you through making this card.

These stunning dies are available NOW in the new January – June Mini Catalog!! These dies will be incredibly popular so order yours now while they are in stock! I did some cards as Thank You cards and some cards with Happy Birthday. Both greetings come from the Peaceful Moments stamp set – I love the font used with these greetings! The stamp set and the dies are offered together as a bundle a 10% savings – yay!!

For the inside of the card I used another greeting from the Peaceful Moments stamp set and added an image from another stamp set, Painted Poppies. I colored the flowers with the Popy Parade Stampin' Blends combo pack and the stem with the Old Olive Light Stampin' Blend.

To adhere the detailed flower to the flower base and the detailed leaf to the leaf base, I dipped a section of sponge in Multipurpose Liquid Glue and sponged the glue on the back of the detailed piece. Watch the video below to see that in action!

I created this lovely card back n December for a card swap with other demonstrators. This card uses the Painted Poppies stamp set and the matching Painted Label dies. The circle piece in the center of the die is from the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper.

The other project that I shared in the video is this covered book of sticky note pads. Isn't it gorgeous?! I created these in December for some very special leaders on my Stampfield Stars team to gift to them at our Elite Retreat event.

Here is what the project looks like with the cover open. The pad of Sticky Notes is available for demonstrators to purchase, I thought it would be a perfect gift for my leaders but I wanted to dress it up by adding a cover. Hello Poppy Moments dies!

This was a fun project because I got to use the other flower and one of the other leaf dies from the set – so fun! I used the Hand-Lettered Prose Dies for the word "Notes".

The dimensions for the cover are: Basic Black 7" x 7 1/2". Then with the 7 1/2" side at the top of the scoring tool, score at 6 1/8" and 6 1/2". The sticky notes came mounted on sturdy black chipboard so I just adhered the cover on to the existing backing with Tear & Tape. The Poppy Parade layer for the letters is 2 1/8" x 3 5/8", with a 2" x 3 1/2" piece of Basic Black that has been embossed with the Subtles Embossing Folder. The letters are die cut from Poppy Parade and the flowers and leaves are the same combo that I used on the card above, Real Red, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, and Garden Green. I then adhered a 3/4" x 7" piece of Poppy Parade inside, with just an 1/8" sticking out so that it shows when the cover is closed.

Thanks for letting me share some photos from our Stampfield Stars Elite Retreat back in December! We went to a Christmas High Tea at a local tea room – it was SO fun!! These leaders on my team all hold the title of Silver Elite and above – they are such an amazing inspiration to all of our Stampfield Stars members.
