All Star Design Team Blog Hop - Country Floral Lane Suite

Hello and welcome to our All Star Design Team Video Class Bundle Blog Hop for February 2023. This month the All Star Design Team are using the Country Floral Lane Suite. The projects featured in the Video Class Bundle are exclusive and the tutorials come complete with photos, video directions and a supply list that includes both Metric and Imperial measurements. 


Here is a sneak peek of the
Country Floral Lane Suite bundle of tutorials.


To enjoy the tutorials you have several options:

  • shop with me -  if you order from my online store you will receive that month's bundle for free
  • purchase - buy the bundle for £11.50 
  • Join my Team - team members will receive the tutorials for free

In this six-month block of tutorials we will be using current Stampin' Up! Suites to create a Video Class Bundle, each containing 12 exclusive video classes. We will be using products from both the January-April Mini Catalogue and the new 2023-2024 Annual Catalogue:

  • January 2023 - Fancy Flora Suite
  • February 2023 - Country Floral Lane Suite
  • March 2023 - By the Bay Suite
  • April 2023 - Regency Park Suite
  • May 2023 - Annual Catalogue Suite
  • June 2023 - Annual Catalogue Suite

For the blog hop at the start of the month, each of us will create another project using the featured suite of products to give you even more inspiration. Here is my Country Floral Lane Suite card created for this hop. 


I love anything heart-shaped, so I was immediately drawn to this suite of products! There are so many
possibilities with it and it's definitely more than just Valentine's Day set. Although, it is perfect for those cards too.

I teamed the Designer Series Papers, stamps and punch from this suite together with another stamp/punch bundle to create my cards for today's hop. The stamps from the Alphabest Bundle enable you to spell out words and names, aswell as having numbers, and you can create adorable little tags using the coordinating punch. There are even images to create tiny frames around the letters.


I used the same basic layout to create several cards, and I am really pleased with them all. They are the same but, at the same time, they are different!


I added DSP to the centre of a die cut a frame from the Scalloped Contours set and wrapped some white Baker's Twine around it before popping it up on dimensionals and adding it to a standard sized base card. I've used both stamped images and the DSP to punch out hearts to decorate my cards and used the central piece of DSP to determine the colours I used.


To create the words I used one of my favourite techniques, and that is heat embossing. First, I stamped the frames using Versamark and then heat embossed them. As a separate process I then stamped and heat embossed the letters. Although heat embossing twice adds an extra step, I found it easier to centre the letters this way, and also I was less likely to smudge the embossing powder!


The majority of the heat embossing was white, but for this card I inked the letters up using Versamark, then Sweet Sorbet before stamping onto Basic White card and then heat embossing using clear powder. This way I was able to create shiny Sweet Sorbet coloured letters.

I hope you like my cards - let me know what you think in the comments below. If you want to be inspired with more ideas using this suite you can purchase the Video Class Bundle (along with previous tutorials) HERE
