Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Die
Urban Oasis Designer Series Paper
Accordion-folded Flower
Happy Spring!!!!
Directions:
1) Cut card stock or Designer Series paper to 12" x 3/4".
2) Score strip every 1/4" the entire length of the card stock and accordion fold the score lines.
3) Adhere ends of card stock together (Sticky Strip works well). Let dry.
4) Holding the card stock with two hands, twist one edge of the strip into the center as shown to create a flower shape.
5) Adhere a punched circle to the flower center on one or both sides (Pop-Up Glue Dots work well) to hold shape in place. Tip:
Experiment with different sizes and score intervals to create the desired shape of your flower.

It’s designed especially for use with rubber stamping and scrapbooking, so it’s light enough to make application easy.

I love this card....and the layout is a great one for many other types of cards, invitations or scrapbook layouts. Quick and easy...that's what I'm all about! Enjoy.

Did you know that we now have Sizzix dies that are EXCLUSIVE TO STAMPIN' UP!? So, even if you already have a Big Shot, you can only get these MUST HAVE dies through SU! Another plus for buying your Sizzix dies through SU! is that you also get hostess freebies credit. Let's face it...you can drive all over town in hopes of using your discount coupon....but will they have the die that you want in stock....or perhaps, they will disqualify your coupon on that product.
....and there are more to come!

. The following materials work well when creating die cuts with the Big Shot machine and Bigz and Originals dies. Please note the maximum thickness of several materials.

I really love this card that was posted today in the Demo section of the SU! website. The ribbon knot used to make the middle of the flower and the leaves is a unique idea.....so simple too! This card is really a quick one to make.. Making some flowers like this would also be a cute addition to a spring or girlie scrapbook layout.

SCRACH AND SNIFF TECHNIQUE
Supplies Needed:
. A bold-style stamp set
. VersaMark® pad
. A sugar-free drink mix
. Clear Stampin' Emboss® powder
. Heat tool
1. Mix 1 part sugar-free drink mix to 1-1/2 parts Clear embossing powder (see Figure 1). For example, you would mix 1 teaspoon drink mix with 1-1/2 teaspoons of Clear embossing powder. You'll have a scented embossing powder!
2. Stamp your bold image in VersaMark ink on your card stock.
3. Heat Emboss the image using the scented embossing powder, just as you would with any other heat-embossing project (see Figure 2).
Note: For the scent, select a sugar-free flavored creamer or sugar-free drink mix for your project, such as sugar-free Kool-Aid® or cocoa. Why must the mix be sugar free? Because heated sugar crisps and browns. When choosing the right drink mix, consider both color and scent. Colored embossing powder will work for scratch-and-sniff images; however, unless you use embossing powder that is the same color as your drink mix, the colors may blend strangely.
***This would be a fun technique to use with the FREE Sale-A-Bration set "Yummy"...click on the SAB catalog link on the sidebar to take a look at it. Remember....you can have this set...or any others in that collection for free with your $50 order only until the end of March.
