This month at the ICS Design Team, we are highlighting Designer Series Paper with a paper palooza!
For my projects, I wanted to highlight the Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper, but I wanted to use it with a totally unrelated suite of products. So I chose the Bouquet Blooms Stamp Set and Gatefold Blossoms Framelits Dies, which can be purchased together as a bundle (Bouquet Blooms) at a 10% savings.
The framelits make a cute gatefold card, using a 9" x 5" piece of cardstock. It's pretty easy to do. Here's a great video from Stampin' Up! showing how to put together the card:
I also wanted to make a gift, so I chose a hand sanitizer holder and modified it to make it a bit wider. I originally got the idea from Dawn Griffith, but she had used the retired oval punch (this was years ago) and I wanted to use the smallest oval form the Layering Ovals Framelits, so I had to make the paper wider. I also accented the large flower by using Jewel Pearls and coloring them with an Old Olive (Dark) Stampin' Blend marker.
I had some left over pieces, so I decide that I needed to make a tag to go with my card and gift.

Color is what helps me express my creativity and Stampin’ Up! offers 53 colors! Color can help you express your creativity too! Right now, for a limited time, Stampin’ Up! is offering a free family of Classic Stampin’ Pads to all new recruits. Join my team today, and get a color family of your own.
The Starter Kit is already a fabulous deal, and adding a set of Classic Stampin' Pads takes it to the next level!

Each Stampin’ Pad Family is an assortment of 10 coordinating ink pads from one of the following color collections: Brights, Neutrals, Regals, Subtles, and 2017–2020 In Colors.
The 2017–2020 In Color Classic Stampin’ Pads bundle is exclusive to this promotion and includes all colors in both the 2017–2019 In Colors as well as those in the 2018–2020 In Colors.

This month we are introducing the 2018-2020 In Colors and they are gorgeous! With names like Lovely Lipstick, Call Me Clover, Pineapple Punch, Grapefruit Grove and Blueberry Bushel, how can you go wrong?
For my cards, I wanted to use all 5 colors, but I didn't have Lovely Lipstick cardstock yet, so I used Real Red. It works in a pinch. My Lovely Lipstick cardstock is currently making its way to my home though, so all is right with my colors.

It's time for another monthly Inspire Create Share Blog Hop! This month our theme is "It's a Guy Thing". We all need more masculine cards in our stash, and I thought the stamp set Mixed Drinks would work well. Plus, this set is retiring and I wanted to use it one more time (at least).

Today is an exciting day! Stampin' Up!'s Share What You Love Suite is available in a la carte and three fabulous (limited time) bundle options as an early release (from May 1–31, 2018)!
This month our Inspire Create Share Blog Hop has the theme "It's a Girly Thing".
I honestly don't know why I waited to get the Apron of Love Stamp Set and Apron Builder Framelits because they are adorable! I love the little details in this set, like the ribbon and the flowers die cuts.
For my card, I wanted to get a head start on Mother's Day and wanted a bright bold design. I embossed the heart images right on the Designer Series Paper and used Wink of Stella in the center of the Tangerine Tango flowers and throughout the leaves for accents.
I also wanted to emboss the greeting to make it pop.
