WILD FERNS BUNDLE & WHITE ON WHITE CARDS - AN IN DETAIL POST

Hi Stampers!

Today we’ll take an “In Detail” look at the WILD FERNS BUNDLE from the Stampin’ Up!®️ January - April 2024 Mini Catalog. This is a bundle you might have overlooked. I certainly did the first couple of times I looked through the catalog. I feel this bundle would work well with the Nature’s Sweetness Suite. 

WILD FERNS is a die bundle containing 10 cling stamps and 13 dies. The stamp set includes 5 images and 5 greetings. The die set includes 4 dies that cut out the 4 fern images in the stamp set, 3 label dies that coordinate with the greetings, and 6 dies the cut out accent pieces. 

For today’s sample cards I chose to create cards with a white on white theme. I feel the simplicity of the white really compliments the stamped and die cut ferns. Let’s look at the cards:

  1. Hi Kim. This is such a beautiful card. Thank you for sharing. Would you be able to confirm for me that one of the two cutouts of the ferns dies, had to be glued with the back facing up? I think it is the fern on the left side of the greeting. Thank you.
