Welcome to the Scrapbooking Global June 2020 Blog Hop! This month we’re featuring new products from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. I used the new Celebrate Sunflowers bundle (Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set & Sunflowers Dies) as well as a few of the new 2020-2022 In Colors (Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, and Just Jade.) I used Press n Seal plastic wrap to keep all the little pieces of the die cuts in the right place. I’ve used this technique several times in the last couple weeks. I printed the photo in sepia so it would match the yellow/brown feel of the page.

Here’s the bundle:
Here’s what I made:
My dear, sweet cousin Annette and her husband were both infected with COVID-19 last month. He has been in ICU since May 19, and on a ventilator since June 6, but he’s still hanging on. She went into ICU on May 21 and died on June 1.
S
Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Early Espresso card stock (CS) cut to 11-3/4″ x 11-3/4″
- Bumblebee CS cut to 4-1/8″ x 5-5/8″
- So Saffron CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/2″
- So Saffron CS cut to 4-1/4″ x 6-1/4″
- Early Espresso CS cut to 4-1/8″ x 6-1/8″
- So Saffron CS cut to 3-3/4″ x 7/8″
Stamped with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set:
- sentiment and sunflowers (large and small) in Early Espresso ink onto the 4″ x 5-1/2″ So Saffron CS
- I also used the Early Espresso ink pad to ink just the very edges of the stamped CS piece.
Cut using the Sunflowers Dies:
- one detailed sunflower from a scrap of So Saffron CS
- one detailed sunflower from a scrap of Bumblebee CS
- 4 leaves from a scrap of Just Jade CS
- NOTE: I applied Press n Seal plastic wrap over the tops of all the die cuts to keep all the little pieces in place while I transferred them to the page.
Colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers:
- stamped sunflowers in So Saffron, Just Jade, and Cinnamon Cider
- die cut sunflower at top left in So Saffron
Assembled the page:
- 11-3/4″ square Early Espresso CS glued onto a piece of 12″ x 12″ Bumblebee CS
- stamped So Saffron CS glued onto the 4-1/8″ x 5-5/8″ Bumblebee CS, then glued onto the Early Espresso CS background
- wrote name and dates on the So Saffron CS strip and adhered it onto the 4″ x 6″ photo using Stampin’ Seal
- photo adhered onto the 4-1/8″ x 6-1/8″ Early Espresso CS, then onto the 4-1/4″ x 6-1/4″ So Saffron CS, using Stampin’ Seal
- NOTE: I never use a wet adhesive, like glue, on photos.
- outline parts removed from both die cut sunflowers – very carefully, making sure none of the inner petals came off of the Press n Seal
- Bumblebee sunflower outline glued onto the top left of the Early Espresso CS background
- applied glue onto the backs of all the So Saffron sunflower petals and used the Press n Seal to line them up inside the Bumblebee outline, then colored the petals with the So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Marker
- So Saffron sunflower outline cut in half with my Paper Snips and glued onto the Early Espresso background so the cut edges would be covered up by the photo
- Bumblebee sunflower (petals only) cut into 2 different size pieces, then applied glue to the backs of the petals and used the Press n Seal to place them so the cut edges would be covered up by the photo
- photo adhered onto the Early Espresso background using Stampin’ Seal
- leaves glued around the sunflowers, some whole, some only outlines, some only insides
- Pumpkin Pie rhinestones applied onto the Early Espresso background in a meandering pattern
