Flamingo Friday: Dragonfly Dreams & Colouring with Stampin’ Blends

Good afternoon stampers! I’m back with a different rubber stamp for Flamingo Friday, along with a whole bunch of Stampin’ Up! products.  I am committed to only using our cardstock and ink on my cards, even though the flamingo itself isn’t a Stampin’ Up! stamp.  I truly believe in the quality of our product, and want to share it with everyone.  Today’s flamingo features colouring with Stampin’ Blends, which will be back on the market shortly.

Wendy's Little Inklings: Flamingo Friday, Dragonfly Dreams and Colouring with Stampin' Blends

Calypso Coral cardstock forms the base of this card, and I have matted the stamped image with Bermuda Bay.  The image is from the Great Impressions stamp company, and is a fairly large stamp.  I didn’t want to just slap it onto a card front and call it a day, so I added the dotted image from the Dragonfly Dreams set.  The sentiment comes from the same set, and although you may think this is just a birthday card, it could be used for any special occasion.

The Stampin’ Blends are in the 2018-2019 Annual catalogue, and will be available again shortly.  Pink Pirouette is retiring, but we have 11 new colours coming to the line, including Flirty Flamingo.  Yahoo!  I will have more colouring options for my beloved birds.

Aside from the fact that this is a non-Stampin’ Up! flamingo image, everything on this card is current and will be carrying over to the new Annual catalogue.  If you’re still pondering last minute “almost-retired” items, keep reading…

There are only 13 days until the 2017-2018 Annual Catalogue goes onto the vault.  All retiring items, except stamps, are available while supplies last.  Stamps join that category on May 25th.  Double-check your supplies to see if there is anything that you need.   Some items have been discounted up to 50%, so it’s worth a last look!
