Hi Stampers!
Pretty cards that go together in no time are perfect projects for busy summer days. When I saw the ALL SQUARED AWAY BINDLE (includes the FLORAL SQUARES DIES), I knew it would be perfect for summer card making! Today’s first four cards are very basic, but colorful and cheery, and a great way to wish some one a happy birthday! Let’ take a look at the cards!
I made these four cards in 30 minutes. It took me longer to select the colors for the cards than the time it took to put them together! The next four cards are slightly stepped up versions of the previous four. It took me about 50 minutes to make these four.
Here is a look at the stamp set:

And here are the dies:
FLORAL SQUARES DIES
The stamps and dies can be purchased separately or bundled for a savings of 10%. This particular stamp set and dies are great together, but they also are great all on their own!
FOR ALL CARDS:
* Each card begins with a card base that can be either 11” x 4 1/4” scored and folded at 5 1/2” or 8 1/2” x 5 1/2” scored and folded at 4 1/4”.
* For each card I used a Basic White piece of cardstock cut at 5” x 3 3/4” for the inside of the card.
* The floral image is cut from Granny Apple Green cardstock.
* I used two pieces of Basic White cardstock 2” wide by 9” - 10” long to stamp the square background images. I stamped two each of each square background design with Balmy Blue ink.
* The background images are stamped on Basic White with Balmy Blue ink.
* I used Balmy Blue and Memento Tuxedo Black inks. For the So Saffron stepped up card I used Granny Apple Green ink for the sentiment.
* All the focal images are attached to the cards with dimensionals.
The card bases are Petal Pink. The flower images are die cut from scraps of Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral. For the stepped up card the focal panel is Petal Pink cut at 5” x 3 3/4”. It is matted on a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock cut at 5 1/4” that was embossed using the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. Before attaching the focal image panel to the Calypso Coral piece I slipped some Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon around the cardstock and under the focal image, and tied a bow.The center of the Daffodil Delight flowers are Pearl Basic Jewels (the smallest ones).
The card bases are Pale Papaya. The flowers are Basic White. The flower centers are Pearls Basic Jewels (the largest ones) colored with a Stampin’ Blends Daffodil Delight (dark). The stepped up version of the card has a Basic White layer cut at 5 1/4” x 4”. Two pieces of white Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbonare wrapped around the 5” x 3 3/4” piece of Petal Pink.
These card bases are Soft Sea Foam. The flowers are Polished Pink. Their centers are the Pearls Basic Jewels (smallest ones). The stepped up version has a Granny Apple Green layer cut at 4 3/4” x 3 1/2”. The Balmy Blue layer is 3” x 4 1/4”. The greeting is stamped with Granny Apple Green.
These cards have So Saffron card bases. The flowers are Daffodil Delight and Poppy Parade. The stepped up version has a 5” x 3 3/4” Granny Apple Green layer than was embossed with the Ornate Floral embossing folder. The Poppy Parade layer measures 3 5/16” x 4 9/16”. The So Saffron focal panel is 3 1/4” x 4 1/2”.The greating was stamped twice on scraps of Granny Apple Green cardstock. The words were cut apart then adhered to the card focal panel with glue dots. I added a few of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels (Soft Succulent).
